Forget the rose-tinted fluff that shames you for feeling like shit, or the self-help books that only pacify your discomfort. This isn’t therapy, it’s the training you never got in the areas of your life that matter most, areas like purpose, fullfilment, relationships, sex, and intimacy. Stop waiting for permission. This is your call to show up, go deep, and do the work.
The ManTalks coaches will meet you where you’re at without judgment, and be your guide on the journey. It’s our mission to help you face the parts of yourself that are sabotaging you from living the life you know you’re capable of.
Coaching is a sacred art form to me. I’ve trained in multiple modalities to cultivate my own unique approach to this work. My main focus areas have been somatic work, embodiment, shadow work, archetypal work, and IFS. What I do is not talk therapy, goal setting, vision board projections, or mantra repetition. This is depth work, guiding you to re-discover the authentic parts of yourself that have stored potential. And to undo coping behaviors that keep you small and in those darn repeated patterns. We risk finding the rightness in your unwanted behaviors, decompress the negative beliefs, and allow the nervous system to un-burden and flow freely.
20 years ago I trained as a recreation therapist which had a profound effect on me. Most of my Learning came through people with major disabilities who could see life through a unique lens, which sparked an insatiable curiosity in me. It was like they had found a way to look behind/beyond the curtain and taken control of their perception of life. My clients had profound life-altering injuries/experiences that could make some crumble, yet they had unlocked a secret, and they knew how to soak up the joy in life. I was blown away and realized I had a lot to learn.
I had to find my way to this work through my own dark night. My life was profoundly broken. I was lost, depressed, isolated, and disconnected from myself and the world around me. My life was turned upside down, and for the first time, I couldn’t bullshit myself. I looked at myself head-on and started to see all the ways I’d been abandoning my true self. It became evident that I was spiraling into deeper and deeper levels of chaos. I had to get extremely honest for the first time in my life. I had to face my bullshit and my shadows. At the time, I couldn’t imagine there was a place for the authentic me in this world. My relationships were a mess, I suppressed my feelings, and I had no clear vision/goal for my life.
I believe you are innately called to grow as a human being. With proper support and guidance, you are extremely capable of meeting, understanding, and overcoming what’s been holding you back.
Each individual brings their own unique material to this work, my methodology is rooted in attunement, skilled reflection, radical acceptance, and opening questions. A cut through the bullshit rooted approach which employs Somatic Awareness, embodiment, Shadow Work, and authentic reflection.
The work I focus on is: Kind Man vs Nice Guy, Alignment with Core Values, Unlocking/Re-Awakening Masculinity, Dropping Validation, Authenticity, Intentional parenting, Relationship as a Practice, Generative Conflict, Presence and Breath Work.
We each have our own unique stories, raised by the stories of others.
As we grow up, we end up adopting the idea that our authentic self is not good enough. So we strive, we perform, we push, make more money, get the best looking women, run the marathon. Why? Do these achievements fulfill us? Or are we overworking parts of ourselves as a means to protect, control, because our true desires were perhaps denied, or told to “toughen up”, learn a lesson, or admired for your achievements which you strive for to get the affection of loved ones. Whatever it may be, this has gotten you to where you are today. And if you are like me, I was grateful, frustrated, and completely lost until I got clear how I got there, and began to re-write my stories.
If you are a father, and an entrepreneur or professional, are you ready to claim your authenticity, show up in all your roles with deep integrity and pride? Are you ready to face your anger and levels of protection that serve you no longer? Are you prepared to meet all the parts of yourself that overworked and give some space to desires, creativity, and joy?
In a supportive space, you will explore your unconscious. Diving deeper into claiming your identity, and expanding all the areas of your life, and retiring behavior that no longer makes sense.
I know what it feels like to be trapped in cycles of reactivity, disconnection, and self-sabotage. I lived it. For years, my unregulated nervous system dictated my life—leaving me feeling needy, emotionally volatile, and constantly seeking validation in relationships. My inability to take responsibility for my emotions led to blame, outbursts, and ultimately, distance. In my relationship, I unconsciously played the role of a wounded child, which placed my partner in the role of a caretaker. This eroded trust, intimacy, and connection, leaving both of us seeking something more outside of what we had built.
At the core of these patterns was my struggle with addiction—not just to drugs, but to anything that would distract me from facing myself. Whether it was substances, sugar, coffee, work, or the constant need to stay busy, these were all well-worn masks designed to protect me from my own emotional distress. They offered temporary relief but deepened my disconnection—from myself, from my relationships, and from life itself. I was running, avoiding, and masking the very wounds that needed my attention the most.
These patterns fueled my irresponsibility, my inability to hold space for others, and my neediness in relationships. It took hitting my own breaking point to realize that true recovery required more than just quitting the habits—I had to go inward, face my shadows, and uncover what I had been hiding from my entire life.
Through embodiment practices, breathwork, somatic therapy, and nervous system regulation, I learned to feel—really feel—what was happening inside me. Instead of being driven by unconscious wounds, I cultivated the ability to regulate, respond, and show up as a leader in my own life. Now, I help other men do the same—even if they don’t know exactly where to start.
Not sure what you need? That’s okay. If you feel stuck, reactive, or disconnected but don’t know why, that’s where we begin. You don’t need to have it all figured out. We’ll uncover it together, at a pace that feels safe for you.
This isn’t a “check-in once a week” kind of coaching relationship. I am here with you, invested in your process, offering deep support and challenge to help you break free from the cycles that are holding you back. My work is relational, direct, and rooted in real transformation.
Together, we will work through:
Awareness & nervous system regulation so you can respond instead of react, Rewriting limiting beliefs and stories that keep you small, Allowing yourself to be fully witnessed in a safe space, Self-forgiveness & letting go of what no longer serves you, Shadow work—embracing and integrating all parts of yourself, Strengthening relationships—with yourself, your partner, and your community
What’s the Outcome? This work is about more than just managing emotions—it’s about reclaiming your power, living with confidence, and creating deeper, more meaningful relationships. Imagine feeling clear, grounded, and fully present in your life. Imagine being the kind of man who leads with strength and heart, who is unshakable in his integrity, and who builds trust through his actions, not just his words. That’s what’s possible when you commit to this work.
