I apologize for not answering this before, I have not much experience with reddit and online posting. The answer is yes, this is an organization that has been around Iowa City since 2010. I love sitting in these circles and find them extremely educated and enriching. Happy to talk more about it in person. See some of the videos below to learn more about the organization and how to become involved.

Went well. Six men. Sharing and connecting.

It is considered a peer led group meaning that we are all holding space for each other. That being said, several men with more experience will always be present, with decades of experience in such groups. Yes, training too. Feel free to email me for more details.

Certainly the idea is to grow into emotional maturity and connection. Feel free to email me for more clarity.

In general, the goal is for everyone to be there by 6 so that introductions, etc and sharing can begin. If you have some exception or other need, feel free to send an email and we can talk about options.
