Exploring The Men School with Jan Darwin Hutchins Episode 79, February 6, 2018
This week Andy Grant and Appio Hunter discover the path to the creation of The Men School, a school dedicated to cultivating the divine masculine in all of us with Jan Darwin Hutchins.
“Why, after having been a lone wolf all my life, did I feel so alone?” ~Jan Darwin Hutchins
Jan was successful at a young age, living the dream as a TV sports anchor, yet he felt rather empty. In his 50s he realized he had made no real friends over his life. An experience witnessing the support a dying friend received from a men’s group made him realize he was not alone and that he could trust other men. He discovered there was an initiation he could do to become one of those men. Jan did it and confirmed that he was not alone, didn’t need to be alone and could trust men.
“The problem with life is there is no end to the problems.”

“We are a learning community cultivating the sacred deep masculine in us all.”
As social animals, we require a source of stabilization from outside ourselves. Our shared connections and, co-corrections, literally keep us sane.
TheMenSchool is here to:
—keep learning to model the divine masculine
—see you excel in your individual life
When I argue with reality, I lose—but only 100% of the time.~Byron Katie
