MEN’S CIRCLE
Beyond Self-Sabotage

How often have you known exactly what you needed to do?

Yet found yourself procrastinating, doubting yourself, or falling back into the same old patterns, even watching yourself, with full awareness, slowly pull away from what you know you needed to do?

Self-sabotage rarely looks dramatic.

More often, it wears the disguise of procrastination, perfectionism, overthinking, distraction, people-pleasing, comfort, anger, or convincing ourselves that "now isn't the right time".

We are often fully aware when we self-sabotage. And sometimes, it can feel as though there is a part of us that simply wants to tear everything down.

When we don't confront it and instead choose avoidance, we create a short-term relief, yet often at the cost of long-term consequences.

This circle is about:

  • Understanding the spectrum of self-sabotage
  • Exploring the hidden fears and the reinforcement cycle
  • Recognising and connecting with the part of us that wants us to fail
  • Practicing the framework for overcoming self-sabotage
  • Making a small, actionable commitment

As a fun bonus, we'll also check in with our sabotaging inner part and explore whether there is any truth in its unique perspective.

This is a confidential, supportive space where you can show up exactly as you are, without judgment, fixing, or pretending.

Whether you're navigating a major life transition or simply feel it's time to break old patterns, you're welcome here.

We'll explore the topic through meditation, embodiment, sharing and reflection.

Come as you are.
Leave with greater clarity, courage, and deeper connections.

No performing, no fixing, only men, practicing truth, connection, and presence.

Testimonials

"The Men's Circle on People Pleasing was so helpful for me, especially the embodied practices we did during the session. I've already booked to attend Jozef's next Men's Circle (on the topic of "Healthy Boundaries"), and I would highly recommend his sessions."

“Huge thanks to Jozef (amazing facilitator!) and all the lovely chaps willing to share this space. Refreshing and inspiring to see so many fellow guys attempting to deal with life’s challenges with wisdom and compassion, and awareness. Super respectful group. Definitely want to come back for the next topic. ”
- Alex

"An honest and open circle profoundly held and guided by Jozef"
- Rupert

"I really appreciated Jozef's facilitation of the circle, creating a space where men felt safe to share vulnerably. I'm so glad I went, and I left feeling more empowered with new tools that I can put into practice in my everyday life."

"A very comfortable setting to discuss emotions with men. Very peculiar too, I must add, for those of us who are not used to talking about these things among men with no women around, but peculiar in the best possible way. Looking forward to the next one!"

Jozef's warm and openhearted coaching approach opened up the space for the deep discovery and explorations within myself that ultimately lead to my self-acceptance, self-love and actions to move forward with my life.”
- Daniela

"I have worked with Jozef for two years. He is one of the most creative people I know, and he helped me to discover new resources to help solve my problems. He is understanding the process of transformation and how to make my life transition unique, personal, and powerful. He seamlessly integrates the nuanced perspective of a visual artist and architect to empower holistic solutions for people.”
- GK

“Jozef is a unique coach. He has that rare mix of solid wisdom and rare intuition. He  did navigate me through a ‘stuck’ place towards the destination. He didn’t tell me what to think or do, but he was the perfect journey companion on the road less travelled.”
- GP
