Sharing Circles

Spots must be reserved beforehand – Check your email or Hopin Reception once registered

Duration: 2 hours

Sharing Circles are an opportunity to connect with other good men while supported by experienced facilitators. In Circle we will talk, listen, and share our experiences and our challenges. This is a space where you can put down your armour and be your real self – no judgement, no advice, no bullshit. Circles have no more than 10 men each. Spots must be reserved beforehand.

A space where men attending the Online Men’s Gathering can be heard, seen and honoured in their truth.

This is a space for men to share themselves authentically, without any masks and without need for fear of judgement. No one will try to fix them, or tell them they are right or wrong, they will simply be able to speak their personal truth in the presence of open hearted men who are willing to do the same. Each man will have a maximum of two minutes to share what is in their heart, what is true for them.

There will be a strong emphasis on the fact that confidentiality cannot be assured given it is an online event and that men should take this into consideration when they are sharing.
Men should be mindful before disclosing anything that OMG is bound by the mandatory legislative requirement for the report of suspected child abuse, abuse to adults and neglect to government authorities.

The space will be facilitated by Adam Weaver and Nick Columb, both registered counselors, with moderation from Richmond.
