“Spotting the Men” with Dale Rhodes
“Are Men OK?” was The Nation magazine’s title in April 2025. It highlights content and conversation not enough of us are engaged in, even within our personal spheres. ‘Where are the men?’ is a frequent question in certain circles, often left unanswered. Let’s explore how we all might better “spot” the men in our own lives— that is, metaphorically applying the coaching and support of a gym weightlifter who provides “spotting” for another trying to grow and change. Coaching and support is greatly needed amongst men of all ages, though most folks prefer to discuss this issue only through political and systemic spheres, allowing everyone a safe distance from actually contributing interpersonally with your own connections: male friends, neighbors, dads, partners, husbands, brothers, sons, nephews and grandsons. If you live amongst them, and you want to understand them better and also to support their growth and positive change live and local, join for an exploration that hopefully sparks a new area of attention and programs in our community here.
Enneagram Mentor and Spiritual Director Dale Rhodes has hosted a number of workshops for men and workshops about men at international conferences, online and in-person.
