A 3-month embodied journey for men who want to stop pleasing for love, start expressing, and lead from the heart.
Kick-off: May 28
Venue
Veenendaalplein 146, Amsterdam
For the Man Who’s Done Everything Right
In an age where many men feel lost in the maze of mind and expectation,
a new path emerges — not of conquest, but of homecoming.
You learned early that love is something you earn…
with good behavior, with silence, with sacrifice.
And so you became a master of reading the room,
shifting, softening, performing...
until no one — not even you — knew what you truly wanted.
You’ve given everything…
except yourself.
Beneath the mask of the good man is a heart that longs to be seen.
To speak without shrinking.
To feel without fear.
The Fellowship of the Heart is not a place to prove yourself.
It is where you come to remember:
You were never too much.
You were never not enough.
You were always worthy of being loved — as you are.
This is a sacred circle for men who no longer want to please for love — but to embody it.
A Part of You Knows There’s More
You’re doing your best. You’ve held it all together.
But still… something aches.
A quiet part of you is done chasing success,
and craves something more real.
To be fully seen — without the performance.
To feel connection — without having to earn it.
To trust yourself — in intimacy, sex, and leadership.
To stand in your truth — not to prove, but to be.
If this stirs something in you…
The Fellowship is calling.
And it is calling you home.
Letting Love in
Many men have been taught to place all their relational needs on one woman. To seek intimacy, support, approval, touch, and meaning in just one place.
But love cannot thrive under that much pressure. And neither can you.
You were never meant to walk without support.
You need brotherhood.
You need friends who see you.
You need love in many forms — not just romance.
Your needs were never the problem.
The challenge is learning to receive love in all the forms it wants to come.
This is not a weekend high.
This is a path of return —
to the body, the breath, the heart.
To the truth that was never lost, only buried.
Over three months,
you’ll move through six stages.
Each one a threshold.
Each one a homecoming.
Stage 1: The Call to Presence
The Awakening Heart — Reclaiming sensation and inner awareness
You hear the whisper, a deeper longing for intimacy, aliveness, truth.
But the dragon stirs.
We begin with nervous system regulation, presence practices, and embodied consent.
You learn how to feel again — in theory and in practice, getting attuned.
Stage 2: The Trial of Truth
The Warrior’s Mirror – Facing the wound
You come face to face with the dragon: shame, fear, old conditioning.
Some want to fight it. Others want to run. The trial… is to stay.
Through inner child work and shadow work, you meet the parts of yourself you’ve kept hidden.
This is where honesty becomes healing.
Stage 3: The Rite of Connection
The Wild & Free Heart – Brotherhood and emotional safety
You realize you’re not alone in the cave.
The brotherhood begins to form.
Through co-regulation, deep listening, conscious touch, play, and being witnessed,
you begin to feel safe in connection.
And when safety returns
so does play.
Laughter. Spontaneity. Joy in being seen.
Stage 4: The King's Reckoning
The Embodied Lover – Surrender and feminine integration
You stop guarding the gate.
You feel what the dragon was protecting — your vulnerability, your longing.
We work with tantric practices, ritual, and embodied expression to soften control and awaken deeper intimacy.
You begin to trust your body, your heart, your truth.
Stage 5: The Temple of Alchemy
The Embodied Lover – Integration through embodiment
On July 13 you get acces to the event the Temple of Alchemy. A full-day experience where everything you’ve practiced becomes real.
This is where practice becomes lived experience.
In the Temple, you practice embodied leadership, intimacy, and expression in real time.
You move through guided exercises, meditation, and a free-flow exploration in a sex-positive, heart-centered space.
All of you is welcome.
Stage 6: The Sovereign’s Return
The Sovereign Man – Embodied leadership & belonging
You cross the threshold — not as a boy seeking worth,
but as a man who has reclaimed it.
In our final session, we focus on integration, evaluation, and initiation.
You embody what it means to lead from presence,
and return to your life with your heart open, your boundaries clear, and a circle at your back.
What You’ll Walk Away With
The Fellowship is a space of embodiment.
Where transformation doesn’t stay in your head — it lands in your body.
Where change is not talked about, but lived.
By the end of this journey, you’ll walk away with:
A deeper connection to your body and emotional truth
Tools to move through fear, shame, and self-doubt
A circle of men who truly see you — and have your back
Freedom from overthinking and constant self-monitoring
The ability to show up fully in intimacy and relationship
Confidence that is rooted in presence, not performance
A new kind of leadership — one that begins in the heart
Who This Is For
This is for the man who:
Feels stuck in his head, always managing, proving, or pleasing
Has achieved success, yet carries an ache he can’t explain
Longs for real connection, but keeps intimacy at arm’s length
Craves brotherhood, but fears being truly seen by other men
Is deeply sensitive, but unsure how to stand in that truth
Wants more from sex and love than performance and pressure
Feels a deeper purpose calling — and is finally ready to listen
There is strength in softening.
Power in presence.
And leadership in living with your heart open.
You don’t have to be “fixed” to enter.
You just have to be willing to come home to yourself.

About Your Guide
I’ve spent the last years guiding men from performance into presence —
from overthinking and shame into grounded confidence, intimacy, and truth.
My work brings feminine energy into men’s spaces:
helping men soften without collapsing,
lead without dominating,
and feel without losing themselves.
Again and again, I’ve seen how much pressure men place on romantic relationships —
as if that’s the only place love and touch are allowed.
But when all your needs depend on one connection, it becomes heavy.
And often, unsuccessful and unsustainable.
In group work, I’ve experienced something different:
spaces where we become mirrors for one another.
Where being truly seen is the medicine.
Shame grows in secrecy — but it dissolves in presence.
I’ve felt deeply nourished and fulfilled by connection with men and women — beyond romance.
And I’ve seen how powerful it is when men begin to trust each other again.
Because if you don’t feel safe with other men,
how can a woman truly feel safe with you?
You weren’t meant to do this alone.
Women are thriving in connection — and men need it just as much, if not more.
The Fellowship of the Heart is a space to come home to yourself.
To open to love and aliveness beyond needing.
To lead from fullness — not from lack.
This is what makes you magnetic.
Not the chase.
But the presence.
The joy.
The way you live with your heart already open.
The Call Has Been Sent.
Will You Answer?
This is a sacred journey.
Intimate. Embodied. Transformational.
And it begins with one step.
