  • “If I can be half as good a father as my dad was to me that would be my greatest achievement” - Tom Daley Happy Father’s Day to all the dads (biological or not) out there doing their best to raise their children into the best humans they can be 🙌🏾👨‍👧‍👦 Dads play a crucial role in the development of boys into men, as, for most boys, their dads are the primary example and guiding star on what it means to be a man. Of course our dads aren’t always perfect, and they’re learning too!! But when we can understand that they are doing the best they can, we can look to find comfort in this 🙏🏾 Thank you Dads for showing us the way, for your fun and passion, and for your unconditional love!! ❤️

  • Let’s talk about the word “simp”: used in pop culture at the moment mostly to describe a man who should feel ashamed for being too nice to or for having feelings for a woman. Although it’s often used lightheartedly, it is important to realise that our words can have a big impact on the people around us and our own actions, and it can be pretty toxic to discourage men and young boys from treating women with respect and love. We can’t shame men for being decent humans! Let’s all be simps for the people we love 💙 (Graphic 📷: @globalreform )

  • What does our mission mean? “Empowering Young Men & Redefining Masculinity…” To keep it simple, our mission has stemmed from the idea that everything begins within yourself. Understanding that you are the master to your life creates a feeling of positivity and clarity, a feeling of empowerment. To make any sort of impact in the world, it begins by first, making a change within yourself. Believing that you have all it takes to make your dreams come true, and live a fulfilling life. We want to empower young men to believe in themselves, and to embrace who they really are without having to hold up a facade of what it means to be a man - just because society has said so for centuries. Empowered people can make a greater impact as they are coming from a place of authenticity and pride. There is nothing wrong with masculinity per se, but when we say redefining masculinity we mean breaking down those aspects of masculinity that have created harm in the past, whether it be a pressure to always be strong, never express emotions except for anger, feel like you have to figure out everything alone etc. Masculinity should not be a fixed concept, it should be flexible, incorporating the healthy aspects of traditional masculinity and embracing other qualities too. We want a world where men can feel confident in themselves without any pressure, which also will benefit all those in the world, women, children etc, as men will live from a place of integrity, joy, love and service. Will you help us on our mission? 💯🔥🙌🏾
