About this gathering

Free Group Coaching Session

Group coaching is a lot like our bi-weekly meetings, with one difference: one person brings a real challenge and Mike coaches them on it while the rest of the group listens in. It isn't advice. It's a set of questions designed to help someone get underneath what's actually going on, see the options they haven't considered, and leave with a clear next step. It works for almost anything you're carrying right now: a goal you're working toward, a decision you're stuck on, a relationship or situation you'd like help unpacking, or a plan you want to think through out loud. The person in the chair gets the direct work, but the insights that surface are rarely just about them. Watching someone else get clear on their thing has a way of surfacing your own. Whether you're being coached or witnessing, there's real value in the room. Want to be the one in the chair? Register, then reply to Mike's email with a sentence or two about what you'd like to work on. The first person to claim it gets the seat. Just want to sit in? Register and you're in. No prep needed. Mike Cameron is a certified executive coach with over 30 years of leadership experience, including 16 years as a CEO.

All you need to do is show up. Sit and listen, or join in and share. You are not alone.

Questions men ask us

What is Connect'd Men?

Connect'd Men is a community for men who want to slow down, open up, and reconnect, with themselves and with each other. We create safe spaces where men can explore their emotions freely, build genuine friendships, and practise the kind of vulnerability that leads to real connection. Our gatherings are built on the S.O.A.R. framework: Slow Down, Open Up, Accept, and Reconnect.

Who is Connect'd Men for?

Any man who wants to grow emotionally and connect more authentically, wherever he is on that journey. Whether you're going through a difficult season, feeling isolated, or simply want deeper friendships, you belong here. No man is too new, too broken, or too late. Come as you are.

What happens at a gathering?

Each gathering follows four parts. We begin with a few minutes of mindfulness to help everyone slow down and arrive. Each man checks in with how he's feeling, without needing to explain or justify it. We move into a theme, guided by a topic but always open to what's most present for the men in the room. We close with check-outs, each man sharing one thing he's taking with him.

Do I have to talk?

No. You're welcome to sit and listen for as long as you like. Many men do at first. When you're ready to share, the space will be there.

Does it cost anything?

No. Gatherings are free to attend, and creating an account is free.

Is Connect'd Men therapy or counselling?

No. Connect'd Men is a peer community, not a clinical or therapeutic service. Our gatherings are facilitated spaces for honest conversation, connection, and mutual support, not treatment. Many members find that showing up consistently, being heard, and hearing others makes a real difference to their wellbeing. If you're going through a mental health crisis, we encourage you to also work with a qualified professional. In Canada you can call or text 9-8-8 any time.

How is Connect'd Men different from other men's groups?

Most men's groups are built around activity, networking, or self-improvement content. Connect'd Men is built around honest conversation and emotional presence. We don't fix, advise, or perform. We listen, share, and hold space. The S.O.A.R. framework and our group agreements create a kind of trust most men have never experienced with other men.

Is everything shared in the group confidential?

Yes. Confidentiality is one of our core group agreements: what's shared in the group stays in the group. It's the foundation that makes real openness possible, and every man commits to it.

How do I join Connect'd Men?

A good first step is our free Connection Quiz. It takes about four minutes and gives you an honest picture of where you are right now. Then find a gathering near you or online: one short form creates your free account and saves your spot. You're also welcome to reach out to us with any questions first.

Where are gatherings held?

In-person gatherings are currently held in Connect'd Reads, Langley, BC and Williams Lake, BC. There are online gatherings too, open to men wherever they live. See upcoming gatherings for dates and places.
