A crew that knows your name, a practice you can keep, and more capacity for the people who matter.
12 phases 84 lessons 1 phase / month Repeats each year 30 Gems 1 enrolledThe story
Most men were taught to think, solve, and keep moving. Far fewer were taught to slow down and let other men see what's actually going on. So a lot of men end up capable and quietly alone. Hearts on Fire is a year of changing that, together. Small circles of 6 to 12 men meet every other week, follow one curriculum through the four seasons, and gather four times a year, including a fall desert campout. It's steady practice with the same men, not a weekend breakthrough.

Questions
How does the cadence work?
Phases open one at a time, about one a month. Once a phase opens it stays open, so you can go at your own pace.
Solo or with my Circle?
Both work. Start it solo and the phases drip from your own start date, or run it with your Circle as a Run so you move through it together.
What is a Run?
A Run is a Circle going through this Journey together, with a shared start date and a group trophy at the finish.
