about mannenpower
What if we men are willing to be our authentic selves? If we are willing to show up, without a mask, without an agenda. Striving to be an example for others. Great partners, fathers and friends. Confident, reliable, compassionate, and not afraid to be open, honest and vulnerable. Men who know what thy stand for, what their purpose and mission is. Men that are fully accountable for their actions. The best version of themselves.
I’ve had the honour and pleasure of working with men like that. Beautiful warm-hearted men.
I'm Dutch, currently living in Spain.
Mannen is Dutch for men.
Power speaks for itself, doesn't it?
a world wide movement
All around the world men are stepping up. Men in search of meaning, belonging, with a drive to serve their communities. A drive to be the best version of themselves. Better partners, better fathers, better leaders. Projects like Man Kind Project, All Kings and last but not least A Band Of Brothers in the UK. All geared towards creating a safe space for men where they can explore what it is to a man in this day and age.
the goal
Before I moved to Spain, I went through my share of challenges—enough to make me stop and really look at how I was spending my time and energy. I had to ask myself: what actually drives me? What gives my life meaning? Where do I belong?
What I offer to other men comes from that place. It’s not theory. It’s what I’ve lived, struggled with, and learned along the way.
My offerings to other men are a means to pass on what I've experienced in my own quest. Here on my own finca in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada.
"A man without a mission,
is like a party without music".
