Upbuild Men’s Group
Next round April-June, 2026
Applications are now open for the next round of the Upbuild Men’s Group
The opportunity:
This group is an opportunity for you to be able to discover and show up as the best version of yourself inside the container of a loving community of men. It is an opportunity for you to cultivate and honor the values of self-awareness, humility, empathy, and vulnerability.
The space is meant for you, as a man, to be able to:
Speak the truth about how you feel and what’s weighing on you without fear of judgment
Process emotions like anger, shame, grief, sadness, and fear in a safe space with other men who are experiencing similar emotions
Call yourself out (and be lovingly called out) when your ego is getting in the way of you being you
Surface your underlying motivations and insecurities so you understand why you’re doing what you’re doing
Work through issues in your romantic relationship or dating life
Work through issues in your professional life
Make commitments and cultivate habits, while being held accountable by men who are rooting for you
Experience the privilege of “walking” alongside other men as they go through their stuff
Learn about yourself through listening to the stories, challenges, and triumphs of other men
Learn how to acknowledge, support, and love other men
Refine or redefine your definitions of masculinity and success
Use Upbuild content to help you see things more clearly about yourself and your relationships
Laugh and cry with other men
Make lifelong friends
This group might be right for you if:
You are successful by various external measures, but find yourself longing for something more that can be hard to define
You find it difficult to get (truly) emotionally real with yourself and others
You find it challenging to live your best life because of a lack of discipline or accountability
You tend to prioritize productivity and success over relationships and emotions
You have male friends but struggle to show up fully in those relationships
Have a desire for more connection and intimacy
You are willing to take risks and get a little uncomfortable for the sake of your growth

Some testimonials:
It's all too easy to go thru our days on autopilot but for one day a week Michael (tactfully) forced us to look deep within ourselves and get uncomfortable asking the tough questions and digging into the deeper reasons behind our state. This group was a great way to do some introspection in a highly supportive, caring and curious environment. The self-work is satisfying in and of itself but even more so seeing in realtime the impact we can have on other men just by being present and curious.
I learned so much from the men's group and have not felt anything like that container we created.
Such a good group with talented and empathetic facilitation.
It was a wonderful group and I feel grateful that I was able to be a part of it.
The Upbuild Men’s Group provided me the consistency, clarity, and courage required to pursue my best self. I experienced and witnessed unexpected growth among undeniable leaders. I value the connections, tools, and wisdom accrued during my time.
I could go on and on about things that I liked from the group - the way we would drill down on certain topics, Michael's calm demeanor, the thought provoking questions that were asked to keep things moving in the right direction, and the fact that I didn't have to emasculate myself to get to my heart.
