Dear Men of Honour,
We’re excited to connect with you through the first newsletter following the incredible Men of Honour Conference. What an unforgettable experience it was to come together, share in the brotherhood, and witness the transformation that’s already taking place. It’s a reminder of why we do this work—empowering each other to rise, grow, and live with purpose and integrity.
As we continue this journey, we want to keep the momentum going by providing insights, inspiration, and action steps that will help us build on what we started at the conference. These small yet impactful steps will help us live out the vision of becoming the best version of ourselves—honouring who we are, where we’ve been, and where we’re going.
Weekly, we’ll be sharing Three Truths, Two Inspirations, and One Action to keep us grounded and focused as we move forward together. This format is intended to be a quick read to inspire you and give you something to help you grow as a man.
Let’s dive in…
3 Truths
I.
“The journey to authentic manhood is one of two paths:
The Path of Growth: Invest in your personal development, becoming the man you’re called to be.
The Path of Contribution: Live each day with purpose, seeking to add value to others and the world around you.”
Make each chapter of your life rich with purpose and experience, and you’ll find yourself living a life full of meaning, even as time passes.
II.
“Self-control isn’t just about willpower—it’s about the spaces you put yourself in. You’re either leaning into self-discipline or against it based on your environment. Choose your surroundings wisely, and your character will naturally follow.”
Surround yourself with places and people who encourage your growth.
III.
“What holds many men back from their potential:”
- Fear of stepping out and trying something new
- Trying to please everyone, at the cost of their own peace
- Imitating others instead of finding their own path
- Chasing status without purpose
- Attempting to do it all alone
- Spreading themselves too thin across too many things
Avoid these traps, and focus on what truly matters.

— Jane Goodall
II.
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”
— Galatians 5:22-23 (NIV)

1 Question For You
If you could choose a new career based on one thing: What activity puts you in a state of flow—where time disappears and you feel fully alive? What would that job be?
