WHOLEHEARTED MASCULINE
STRENGTH THROUGH CONNECTION.
For men who are tired of performing and ready to feel alive again.
WELCOME TO MEN'S WORK
Pretending to have it all together is destroying us. Quietly. Slowly. From the inside out.
We carry too much alone. We say we're fine when we're not.
Men need places where the performance can end — where honesty is met with respect, and strength means telling the truth.
We build communities where men stop carrying it all alone — and practice the courage to live honestly, together.
“For millennia, men gathered around campfires to share stories of wisdom, rites of passage, and community. Today, we carry that tradition forward.”

WHAT MEN ARE SAYING
Dan is doing truly visionary work with Wholehearted Masculine. I have been in and out of his men's groups since 2017, and I always keep coming back because they're honest, true, and deeply valuable to me.

Wholehearted Men's circle is not about just talking. It's honest and deep and transformational work. Dan's wisdom and presence is a gift to this world.

Working with Dan one on one and in our group container was a beautiful experience. He has a truly loving energy that allowed me to feel safe in my vulnerability and authentic expression. It is truly life-changing and soul-nourishing.
Bob Perna-Amari

Over 3 years of coaching, I've learned the most effective strategies to bring forth the healthiest version of myself. This work has shown me it's a lifelong practice, difficult yet effective. It has been a pleasure knowing I'm not alone and yet still a strong individual.
James Helinski

Dan has a real skill of pin-pointing opportunities to make pivots and real change. He is able to synthesize what he hears and respond with intelligent questions. I always come away feeling inspired, supported, and excited about the progress I've made.

Wholehearted Masculine has changed my life for the better. Because of the workshops and writing, I feel confident and empowered as a man. It's great to be part of a community helping good men be better.
Galen Erickson

I am very choosy about who I hire as a coach, and I am so happy I hired Dan. His heart and soul commitment to me as a client felt wonderful, and his ability to reflect the important details of our conversations proved very useful. I recommend Dan without hesitation.
Titus Kahoutek

Wholehearted Masculine has been life changing. It was my gateway into being more in touch with my emotions and being vulnerable with other men. I can trace the ripple of healing in my life back to this work.

Dan and this organization are creating a critical conversation to re-invent masculinity. I'm in awe of their bravery, vulnerability, and creativity in making this healing work happen.
