By "single" parent it doesn't mean you cannot be dating someone lol ... it does mean that you may be divorced, separated or otherwise caring fo …

I chose to start this group to put into practice the exercises outlined in the book "No More Mr. Nice Guy" by Dr. Robert A. Glover. The purpose of this meet up is to connect with the male energy and support and encourage you to be an integrated man, as defined by Dr. Glover. An integrated man has distinctive qualities: a strong sense of self, he takes responsability for getting his own needs met, he is comfortable with his masculinity and his sexuality, he has integrity, he is a leader, he is …
