BEAR PHILLIPS | The Feminist Love Coach
Redefining Masculinity & Embracing Authentic Living.
I will guide you in challenging traditional expectations – supporting you to redefine masculinity in a way that will lead to a healthier, more connected and authentic life.
FROM LONELINESS TO CONNECTION & JOY
Exploring Masculinity & Patriarchy
Over 30% of single men say there’s no one they can talk to when they feel lonely, anxious, or depressed. And over 40% of single men say they feel lonely often or almost all the time.
This is tragic! This is what patriarchy has brought us; loneliness and isolation.
I had to free myself from society’s expectations as to who I was supposed to be (the well-behaved son, the good husband, the adoring father) to live my life on my terms, with no regrets.
I grew-up with deep reservations around the nature of masculinity, and what it means to be a man. I had to take it all apart to understand the nature of misogyny and patriarchy in order to find my peace with it.
I believe it is a process all men need to engage with.
Drawing on my own journey from shy, awkward introvert to a life of joy and connection.
“Working with Bear was deeply transformative.“
I can help you
Are you…
> Someone who identifies as a man but feels confused as to what that means?
> Confused how to be a man in the world in a way you can feel good about?
> Struggling with changing expectations around relationships?
> Feeling lonely and isolated – finding it difficult to make friends?
> Wanting to enjoy your life but feel trapped by expectations?
> Wanting to discover your purpose in life?
The place you are now…
> Confused at the contradictory messages you are receiving around how to be a man
> Lonely and alone, even when you are with friends, family, and work colleagues
> Angry or even rageful but unsure what to do about it
> Feeling trapped by other people’s expectations of who you should be and how
> Wondering what the point of it all is (surely there’s more to life than this)
The place you’ll get to…
> Confident in your sense of who you are in the world and what masculinity means for you
> Able to find genuine and meaningful connection with others
> Have a relationship with your feelings and emotions, knowing how to process them
> Feel you are living your best and “most” life, on your terms
> A sense of living a meaningful life, with a deep knowing of what your purpose is
I can even help if you are someone who may have experienced sexual abuse (as a child, or as a man) and want to heal from the crippling shame that comes with that in order to enjoy your life again. I know what this journey looks like.
