  2. Led or co-led approximately 40 Primary Integration Trainings (PITs)<\/li>\n
  3. Led the creation of the 2011 PIT Manual<\/li>\n
  4. Created additional trainings including the “Integration into a New Way of Being”<\/li>\n
  5. Attended all MKP Leadership Trainings (LT1, LT2, LT3)<\/li>\n
  6. Attended numerous Northwest Elder Gatherings<\/li>\n
  7. Led the first co-gender Northwest Elder Gathering in 2013<\/li>\n

    And the above is only a partial list of the ways I have supported MKP.<\/p>\n

    Coaching MKP Warrior Brothers<\/h3>\n

    I have developed several coaching tools that I only use with MKP Warrior Brothers because all of these men will have a common grounding in certain terms and concepts.<\/p>\n

    The Four Masculine Archetypes (lover, warrior, magician, king) form the structure of each I-Group, but there is little formal training within MKP that goes deeply into the nature and meaning of these archetypes.<\/p>\n

    Learn More about the Four Masculine Archetypes ==><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

    I focus specifically on the King archetype. It is the job of the king to make his kingdom safe. To do this, the king must be mature and well balanced. He must be able to listen to his magician, give clear missions to his warrior and protect his people so they can enjoy their lives. If\u00a0a man’s king is in shadow or somehow deflated, this has an impact on the other three archetypes, and therefore on his entire kingdom. I specifically refer to this as Sovereign Wound Coaching, and I use this only on men who have at least a basic grounding in the archetypes.<\/p>\n

    That is the work I love doing with my \u201cWarrior Brothers\u201d.\u00a0 And here are summaries of what some of them have said about my coaching.<\/p>\n

    I also use the concept of the Hero’s Journey, but not exclusively with men. The Hero’s Journey can be broken down into three major phases:<\/p>\n

    The first phase is about waking up, realizing that you have been asleep, unconscious, unaware of your own shadows and limiting beliefs. This is the call to action, the beginning of the Hero’s Journey.<\/p>\n

    The second phase, which involves most of the journey is about growing up, becoming more conscious, mindful and emotionally mature. This is hard work and it can take most of your life. In fact, it may never truly end; but it is the heart of the journey.<\/p>\n

    The final phase occurs when you have become sufficiently self-aware and emotionally mature to step into the world as a transformed and self-actualized person. This phase is called, simply enough, showing up.<\/p>\n

    I-Group Structure<\/h3>\n

    I-Groups traditionally have four primary activities or rounds:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. The Lover<\/strong> Round in which a circle is formed and men are given a chance to check-in.<\/li>\n
    2. The Warrior<\/strong> round where men are challenged to take ownership and clean up any energy that would distract from the rest of the meeting.<\/li>\n
    3. The Magician<\/strong> Round in which men are supported in doing whatever personal growth work they need to do, or the group does some collective work or teachings.<\/li>\n
    4. The King<\/strong> round in which the men bless each other and check-out for the evening.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      The Role of Guest Magician<\/h3>\n

      For the past several years, I have been visiting I-Groups in nearby Vancouver, BC as a “Guest Magician”.\u00a0 With the advent of Covid-19 and the mass migration to the use of Zoom, I have reached I-Groups in Alberta, on Vancouver Island and around BC.<\/p>\n

      A Guest Magician is typically a man with considerable experience who visits an I-Group to show them something new and different. My experience certainly qualifies me for this role, so let me also share my motivation.<\/p>\n

      I have several goals in making these visits:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. I know lots of these men already because I either staffed with them, was on staff for their NWTA weekend or I led or co-led their PIT, and it gives me a chance to reconnect with men I know and deeply appreciate.<\/li>\n
      2. It gives me a chance to test teaching material and processes I have been developing.<\/li>\n
      3. It allows me to build my skill set and reputation as a coach by using some of my coaching skills to process men.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        I find myself frequently invited for return visits, and I get a lot of personal satisfaction by seeing the impact my teaching and coaching has had on the men in the I-Groups I have visited. I will be extending my outreach to men in Washington and Oregon soon, and after that, into other states and time zones.<\/p>\n

        If you would like me to visit your I-Group as a guest magician, please fill out and submit the form on this page.\u00a0I ask only that I be given at least one full hour to work with. I don’t make any sales pitches, but I do let men know about the existence of this website.<\/p>\n
