Meet Nathaniel

I am a tenderhearted man…

…though I haven’t always embraced it.

As a young boy, I knew I was caring, loving, and deeply spiritual. But those wonderful qualities were not fully valued. Becoming a “real man” was to be tough, certain, independent, and stoic.

For years, I tried to be those things…and when I couldn’t be those things, I faked it. My masks became destructive to my marriage and to myself.

It took much pain and deep introspective work for me to come to the place where I know, value, and trust my truest self. 

I absolutely delight in helping other men live their best lives.

“Nathaniel is such a refreshing blend of empathy, grace, insight, and straight shooting, he has given my wife and I something we never thought possible - a second chance! The way he can hold a man accountable without condemnation or shame yet still validate and empower a wife is a true gift. I could not recommend him more, for my wife and I he was an absolute Godsend!”
