Earlier this year I attended the @sacredsons Embodied Masculine Experience (EMX) in NSW, Australia. 100 or so brave men gathered in the bush for 4 days of immersion in brotherhood, paddling on to this global tidal wave of men’s empowerment and connection.

It’s funny how only 4 days can hold so much variety in one experience. This one was all the things for me. Rich. Deep. Challenging. Enlivening. Confusing. Numb. Awkward. Expansive. Particularly being surrounded by other Kiwis and Australians with our very nuanced masculine challenges and quirks. Finding how we connect beyond the rugby changing rooms or the (comfortable) mask of alcohol culture.

B R O S is a movement focused on optimising the connection, purpose, and vitality of men.

We create spaces for brothers to connect with their primal and divine masculine essence — with accountability, ritual, and celebration.

We began the journey of this work at the foundation of Organic Mechanic (OM), a wellbeing social enterprise & community specialising in organic smoothies, probiotic kombucha & transformational events, founded in 2013 by 5 brothers from 4 different mothers.
