Most men aren’t bad with emotions.
They’ve just never been shown what to do with them.

This men-only session with James Elliott MSc looks at emotional intelligence in a way that actually makes sense.

Not labels. Not overthinking. Just understanding what you feel, why it shows up, and how to handle it without it taking over.

Emotional intelligence isn’t about becoming someone you’re not.
It’s about being able to recognise what’s going on and respond properly instead of reacting on impulse.

These sessions are practical, straight-talking, and built around real conversations with other men.

What you’ll get

A clearer understanding of your emotional reactions
Insight into why certain situations trigger you
Practical ways to respond instead of react
