Men's Conversation Group
Spoke
Your Mind
A space where men can talk honestly - about themselves, about their feelings, about what they care about. No pressure. No roles. No judgment.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
ABOUT THE PROJECT
We create a space, where men can be heard by other men. No pressure. No expectations. Without the role of 'strong'.
Here you can be yourself, speak frankly and listen to others - without advice or masks.
«SPOKE YOUR MIND» — is not psychotherapy, it's not an argument, it's not coaching. It”s a conversation. A conversation between men - on topics that are rarely heard in ordinary life.
In many men's groups, it's not common to discuss feelings, vulnerabilities, anxieties, doubts. These conversations remain "for women" - girlfriends, wives, sisters.
For whom
For men who are missing the live, real conversation. Who want to talk - not just to their girlfriends, but to other men.
Who are looking for a space where they can be honest - and be heard.
You're not alone. You don't have to keep it all inside.
What we're talking about
Mental health
Emotions and feelings
Relationships and sex
Work and money
Body, age, changes
Friendship, loneliness, vulnerability
And much more upon request of the participants
What's important to you specifically will find a place too.
Who comes
Men from Belarus - living in the country and in emigration.
We mention this because it is important to understand the general context - personal, cultural, historical.
It helps to speak more freely.
Who is leading
The group is run by two people - a moderator and a moderatoress. We moderate meetings together, as equals, and there is a strength in that. The women's perspective helps to open up the conversations more deeply. Many participants say it broadens their understanding of themselves and others. We have been working in tandem for over five years, creating projects at the intersection of group work, education, support and gender.
We're there to support the process. But the most important thing is you and your conversation.
How the meeting is set up
The format of the "Spoke your mind" online meetings is a carefully structured process, each part of which plays an important role in creating a space of trust, mutual respect and personal reflection. Each meeting lasts about two hours and takes place in a live dialog format where participants can talk safely and openly about important topics.
Why does this
matter
Because being vulnerable doesn't mean being weak.
Because speaking up is a step toward yourself.
Because many of us have missed having that conversation.
And now is the time to start it.
