WELCOME TO THE SAVAGE GENTLEMAN

HELPING MEN DO THE F'ING WORK TO BECOME THE MAN THEY WANT TO BE!

WDYWFY? What Do You Want For Yourself? WDYD? What Do You Deserve?

Now here are two tougher questions:
What is a real man?
Are you a real man?

What is a real man? Most of us men feel lost and torn between how we think we are “supposed to be” as a man – and how we really want to be. Our spouses or partners, our families, our friends and society all want to tell us how a man should be. I say F that! How do you want to define it, and within that define yourself?
If you are like most men, you may have struggled to come up with answers to those simple questions – or maybe felt an internal conflict around these questions. Welcome to the club! That’s not meant to trivialize those feelings – it’s meant to welcome you to being a man, especially these days. And maybe welcome you to the tribe of The Savage Gentlemen…

MAN TO MAN COACHING

At Savage Gentleman, we believe that real growth requires courage and a willingness to challenge your own beliefs. It’s about owning your shit, being accountable, and being open to new perspectives. This may mean having difficult conversations that push you out of your comfort zone, but it’s through discomfort that real transformation occurs. 

As Thomas Leonard famously said, “when you evolve, you fundamentally and permanently change part of who you are.”

  • OPEN MAT

    This approach is all about one to one work. We meet on a frequent basis, once per week is recommended, for a preplanned number of meetings. "Open Mat" means we will work on what you need to and let the sessions carve a natural course. We can do a single session but if a quick fix worked you probably wouldn't still be reading this! So let's roll up our sleeves and DTFW and make some real changes. Let's work on helping you evolve. Thomas Leonard said "when you evolve you fundamentally and permanently change part of who you are"! I recommend that you commit to a series of 6 sessions as a package. We can hit things hard and fast and then adjust from there. If there is more work to do, we can schedule more sessions.

    Current pricing is $1,000 for 6 sessions. Sessions are scheduled for 60 minutes but I will have buffer space for up to 90 in case it's needed. That way if we get the work done, we can close the session, but if we are still hammering out issues we have space to do that.

  • STRUCTURED SESSIONS

    This approach provides more of a structure and works through a series of lessons and exercises to prompt your growth and evolution. We use various tools, some that are mine and some from other sources, that help us identify the core areas to work on. There will be homework in preparation for these sessions and follow up exercises for many of them. Keep in mind that this method does not allow as much room for getting off course, but we can always add additional/separate sessions if needed at an additional cost.

    If this style appeals to you, ask about the courses we are currently offering.

    Current pricing is $1,600 for 6 sessions. Sessions are scheduled for 60 minutes and we will work to stay on task to move through the work before us.

  • EXPERIENTIAL COACHING

    This type of Coaching can be an easier introduction to Coaching and Men's Work. And a hell'uv a lotta fun! It uses group activities, camaraderie, fellowship and even sweat to help drive conversations and growth. We schedule a group "field trip" of sorts and blend in fun, challenges and coaching. Hiking, kayaking, fly fishing and shooting are examples of possible activities. We are constantly looking for new ideas so if you have one let's talk about it!

    Price is TBD with consideration for the trip expenses and some compensation for the Coaching!

  • MEN'S BOOK DISCUSSIONS

    This is a group meeting. There are a lot of great books to pick from! No More Mr Nice Guy, The Way of the Superior Man, How A Man Thinketh and The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck are a few. Most any book can work but these discussions are driven by some hard hitting questions designed to get you out of your head and into your heart, and your balls! When I say that last part it speaks to helping you find strong and authentic expression of your manhood with your perspectives. This is not about being cocky or arrogant - it's about owning your views, your shit and keeping an open mind to 1) that your views may not be what you truly believe and 2) that it's OK that others may view things differently and 3) that having real conversations can help everyone grow and evolve.

    Usually done in 4 week blocks. Discussions are 90 minutes. Pricing is $50 per book with 50% donated to charity. Additional costs could be food or drinks depending on location.

  • MEN'S GROUP MEETINGS

    "Iron Sharpens Iron"! Group meetings are every other week for 2 hours. There is a brief check in for each member followed by the group helping any member who needs support with an issue or area of life. When a guy needs something, it is their work to do and our job to hold them accountable to doing it - NOT DOING IT FOR THEM! We challenge them to find perspective, solutions and action steps to move through the issue. And where appropriate accountability and support. These groups also provide fellowshipand an opportunity to build friendships outside the meetings.

    Meetings are 2 hours long and scheduled every other week. Pricing is $20 per session with 50% donated to charity.

IDENTIFY, DEFINE AND REFINE

WHO IS THE MAN BEHIND SAVAGE GENTLEMAN COACHING?

Who is the Savage Gentleman? Hell if I know! LOL - well, the truth is that I am trying to figure that out, every frickin day. Maybe like you? One distinction is that I am doing the work, every frickin day! No days off. Yes, oscillation of intensity but working every day to optimize myself and forge who I am and who I want to be at my best.

I’m a Certified Life Coach, I was a financial planner for almost 30 years building a multimillion-dollar business from scratch, an Accredited Financial Counselor, former Marine, 5th degree black belt in Ju Jitsu, a proud father of 2 great young adults and a life long student of self development, high performance and personal growth.

I’ve been through my own challenges and one hardest thing I ever had to go through was a really bad divorce and the splintering of my family. It ripped me to the core. I was angry and hurt and lost and even scared at times. That’s where I found the “bottom” and Men’s Work - guys dealing with their struggles from a man’s perspective. As real men. As authentic men!

I had to rebuild - and really build my life for the first time. “Nobody’s fault but mine” – as it usually is, but that ain’t easy to own. This period was when I started understanding and developing concepts that would later take form in The Savage Gentleman Coaching. My metal as a man was being tested daily and forged in the crucible of a shattering life. Churchill said, “ If you’re going through Hell, keep going”, and I did. And I studied and I learned. I cried and yes, totally lost my shit at least a few times. And through it, I started to learn what WAS my fault, what WASN’T my fault, and what was just shit we all go through in life.

By learning to “own my shit” and work on the things I decided were important to me I was able to survive that period (not without scars and casualties) and now learn to thrive and find flow, and often peace in my life. The Savage Gentleman Approach has been formed from the best advice of some of the most impactful people throughout history and our current times – blending ancient wisdom with modern science.

And one of the best things I learned along the way is the importance of a good toolbox. Because what works for me, may not work or work differently for you. Or maybe a different tool is better for you. Like a seasoned tradesman, I will help you learn the “tricks of the trade” or “hacks” for growing as a man. And welcome you to challenge me to do the same – every day!

Let’s forge your version of masculinity – every day, one day at a time!

  • Walter has been an instrumental part of my personal growth. His coaching techniques have guided me outside of my normal thought process, to challenge road blocks in pursuit of alternative perspectives and options. He is a calming and positive pillar of support, which has helped me transform the feeling of being overwhelmed into empowering perseverance. Walter shares valuable insight to create the processes which support a grounded, realistic, and goal oriented focus. I’d like to think I can go far on my own, but there is no question, having a go-to, a mentor, a guru, has taken me to places I would never have imagined. If you are in search of a personal or professional life coach, having worked with Walter for years in both, I feel honored to strongly recommend you request a spot on his calendar.

    -RAY M.

  • Walter is a keen listener who provides empathy and great insight. He calls it like he sees it and doesn't let me away with half-assed answers, which is something I greatly appreciate. We all need someone to call us out when we're not being completely truthful with ourselves, and Walter can do that. If you want to get to the heart of your issue and get results, Walter is your person.

    -ELESHA T.

  • I met Walter 15 years ago in a new Men's Group formed for men going through divorce. In all those years he has made it his priority to not only better himself but those around him. We are still meeting today through his leadership. We look to Walter as someone who not only truly cares but has the skills and knowledge to guide and lead us and others in their personal growth and development.
