Mens Life Coach

Men's Groups

Where it Started

My name is Wayne M. Levine. In 1993, I participated in my first men’s weekend retreat and joined my first men’s group. Life changing experiences! Since then, I’ve been in several groups and led many more as a mens life coach. I’ve facilitated men’s retreats and gatherings throughout the U.S., and even a couple around the world.

At one point, I was leading five groups a week out of my office in Southern California, along with my individual and couples coaching practice. I was a younger man then!

Times and circumstances have changed me, how I run my groups, and how many more options there are now for men looking for support.

Start Your Journey

When I started to run my own groups, there was no such thing as a mens group coach, and it was nearly impossible to find a men’s group online or in most communities. Thankfully, today there are many options. It may not always be easy to find just the right coach or group, but google will at least get you started on your search.

Covid changed my process as a mens coach. I took my groups to Zoom, and all of my coaching to phone. And now, instead of five groups, I run two weekly men’s groups. I’ve always loved leading men’s groups because I’ve always appreciated the power, wisdom and camaraderie that can be found in these confidential circles.

As a mens life coach, I cherish my groups and the men in them. All of the men have been in our groups for years. Some have been with me for over 15 years. It’s become a part of their lives, just as it has for me. Each group has about 10 men. Occasionally, it’s time for a man to leave the group, and we have a rare opening.

You can see why I would be extremely careful when bringing a new man into group. It takes a lot of energy on the part of the men when a new man arrives. If that new man isn’t committed to a long-term commitment to be in group, it just drains our energy. We’ve been through that way too many times over the years. Only a man who is committed to this work, and committed to his own changes, can be a candidate. And the way we find this out, is by first establishing an individual coaching relationship.

So, if what brought you here is your desire to meet a mens group coach, great. But first, let’s begin working together. In time, as you learn and change, our trust will grow and we’ll both know what the best next step for you will be.

Kind Words from the Men

Wayne's knowledge and the BetterMen tools are an indispensable part of my daily life.

They help me show up as the man I want to be and guide me through life’s peaks and valleys. Every man should know these ideas and use these tools, period.

Wayne is a knowledgeable and real guy who offers a sympathetic ear, but also a clear voice.

Wayne Levine is quite an impressive coach.

I wouldn’t be this far along in my personal and business life if it wasn’t for the work that was encouraged by Wayne and the men of the BetterMen community. Wayne, simply put, I love you. My family and friends all love you because you showed me how to be a better husband, father, brother, and son. You showed me a path of spirituality. Today, I choose to live a life with gratitude, compassion, and self-care. Thank you, my brother.

If you’re going to pay to talk to someone...

…(which is worth every damn penny when it is someone like Wayne) you want to make sure the person is adept at understanding what you need in the given moment to really help shift your mindset and attitude for the better. Wayne does this so well. He gets you. And he’s onto it sometimes before you even say it, which cuts the fluff and saves your valuable time with him. Experienced. Wise. Kind. Present. No nonsense and loving. What’s not to like in having someone like that be your coach? Wayne is not your flashy “influencer” coach and therapist. He is the real deal. That’s who you want to talk to if you want to improve your life, relationships, and professional path. He’s got no agenda except to faithfully support you.

He doesn’t sit back on a couch and lob questions in some kind of one-sided way. Instead, you can have a real conversation with him, as I have for almost two years now in dealing with issues in my life. No doubt, Wayne listens well and knows his stuff, but he also gives it to you straight—or at least helps you cut through your own crap and get clarity about what matters to you. Wayne has provided invaluable support and practical advice on my journey to becoming a better man.

-Adam (Minnesota)

I credit him with helping me achieve multiple breakthroughs over my years of consistently working with him. My wife and family agree that my on-going work with Wayne has made me a better man. If you need to make a change or move the ball in your relationships, work, or life, don’t hesitate, don’t delay, don’t put off what will start your revolution.

Wayne Levine is quite an impressive coach.

He is insightful, brilliant, and also shoots straight from the hip. He has helped me through not just a few jams of my own making. My favorite part of his counsel is that it really helps call me on my own bullshit, helps me see where I am part of the problem, and it is always said in a way that helps me see and change those things that maybe served me as a child, but that are no longer needed. He’s part mentor, part friend, with just a sprinkle of ornery to help get under my skin when I need it.  It should also be highlighted: he’s one of the smartest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of getting to know.

-Eric (Oregon)
Wayne has been helpful in getting me out of my head...

… when it comes to how I look at the dynamics of my own life, relationships, and work. Sometimes men can perceive life situations as insurmountable problems. I sure do. We need someone intuitive and wise to help us see the more helpful and expansive perspectives available to us. Wayne makes it simple, because it is quite simple. But it takes help to realize that! Thanks, Wayne.
