Immediate access to everything behind the series, the community around it, and first in line when the online circles open in September.
Thirty to sixty men in a circle. Regular men. Single guys, those in relationships, dads, granddads. No stage, no gurus, no fixing. We take it in turns to say what's actually going on, and to be heard. Some of the most honest things a man will ever say, he'll say to men he barely knew an hour before. There's a freedom in that.
I credit it with helping to pull me back from the worst place in my life. The group started with seven men. There are eight hundred in our WhatsApp group now. The series you've been watching came out of it, and the membership is how we take the room itself to every man who can't get to one.
In early September, we open these circles online. Small groups, trained facilitators, from anywhere in the world, no need to know a single soul. Members are first in line for seats when the doors open.
The series is free and stays free, all nine episodes, because the men who need it most often can't pay for anything. The membership is what makes that possible, and what funds what comes next: more circles, online and in person, and a real contribution to the people who answer the phone at four in the morning.
The content is the thank you. The mission is the reason.
Most projects say "a portion of proceeds". Here is ours, exactly.
Ten per cent
of every membership, every month, goes to suicide-prevention helplines, to train and support the volunteers who answer the phones. Inside the community we publish the running total and exactly which helplines it goes to, so you can watch it move.
1,521 men take their own lives every day. The ones who survive almost always had one of two things: a room where they could tell the truth, or a person on the end of a phone. Your membership funds both.
The 500 Founding Patron places are the only thing here that runs out. The monthly price is the monthly price; no countdown, no games.
Some people watch a series like this and think: I want that to exist for other men. The Founding Patron place is for them.
It is not a discount and we don't sell it as one. It is a stake in getting this off the ground at the moment it matters most: the money goes straight into putting the series in front of the men who need it and opening the first online circles. In return, you carry the Founding Patron title for life, your name stands permanently among the 500 inside the community, and when the circles open in early September you choose your seat first.
And here is the part that keeps paying you back. Every course we ever create from here on, on health, money, relationships and the tools of a good life, is included in your patronage for life, at no extra cost, the day it ships. The longer we build, the more your one payment is worth. Tonight is the cheapest this will ever be.
Two years from now, when there are circles running every day of the week in every timezone, there will still only ever be 500 names on that wall.
Yes, any time, in two clicks, and you keep access until the end of the month you've paid for. No phone calls, no hoops.
Yes. One payment, once. Nothing more, ever. It is a lifetime place, not a subscription.
We're building courses on health, money, relationships and the tools of a good life. Each one will be released separately. Founding Patrons are the exception: they keep every course we ever create, for life, at no extra cost, included in their one payment. It is the quiet reason the patron place gets more valuable every year.
September. I'm taking a break after 10 months of building up to the launch, then we open the first groups. Members and Founding Patrons get first access to seats, Patrons at the front of that queue.
Every man in that Saturday room thought the same the first time. You can join a circle and just listen. Nobody is made to speak. Most men are surprised how fast it stops feeling strange.
Women are welcome in the community, and many members are women who joined for a man in their life or for their sons. The circles themselves are men's spaces; more offerings will follow as we grow.
Yes, and it's one of the best things you can do with this page. Buy it for a husband, a brother, a son, a mate, and we'll help you hand it over well. Write to us and we'll set it up personally.
A fixed tenth of every membership, every month, to suicide-prevention helplines. Inside the community we publish the running total and exactly which helplines we're funding, so you can see it move.
Then take it, with our blessing. All nine episodes, free, no catch. Send it to one man who needs it. That's worth more to us than a reluctant sale.
If you've watched the series, you already know whether this is for you. If you join, you're keeping the series free for the next man, opening rooms he can walk into, and paying for someone to pick up the phone at four in the morning. And you're getting somewhere to stand yourself.
We're all in this together.
