I’m getting married!!! Our wedding is literally a month away. I just cannot wait to holler my commitment to the heavens, witnessed by family, community and the revelry of friends.
I am in love every single day of my life. The divine forces that hold the universe together blessed me with the partner that I must have longed for for many, many life times.
I can wax on and on about how and why I am committing the rest of my life to this woman that will soon become my wife. Her name is Tuesday and she is the love of my life.
But today, I will focus on one thing: I am inviting you to meet her and to find out who she is for yourself.
To my brothers, I’m so sorry, we don’t get to have Tuesday (YET!). But there are women in your lives, sisters, lovers, friends, mothers, partners, co-workers, wives. We owe each of them so much. Stay with me here, because this is for them.
Tuesday is offering a four week program: Navigating Transformation. This workshop is a primer and initiation for a three month intensive that is coming in 2024. (Joining the workshop series is not a commitment to the longer intensive, but you will get a discount if you do. More info coming soon!).
I have seen this work be born. I have witnessed the tears. The courage. The moments of awe and inspiration. The clarity. The confusion and the doubt. The thousand prayers and ceremonies. The endless bows of devotional surrender.
I have witnessed the love of my life come into her power and her truest self. Face the demons of hell and trauma no human being should ever, ever have to face. And here she is, becoming a light, finally ready to share this part of herself with the world.
To share her light with you, my readers, companions and friends. I do not stand by anything I do not believe in. And ALL of me stands behind this invitation. Because I know in my bones that it flows from the very well of truth.
Here is how Tuesday and her team describe it. Click on the links to learn more. Read through the end, if you care to know why I personally find this so important.

This is a 4-week journey of metamorphosis and renewal.
The series is part of a journey toward wholeness. A way to begin integrating the lessons we are learning as we both fall apart and bring ourselves back together. There is a solemness and sacredness to this journey. But there is also great joy when we share it with each other.
This series is about the mind and the spirit. The body, the heart, and the soul. We will dive into devotional practices. We will experience self-revelation. We will explore what it means to have deep and real self-reverence. We will connect with something that is both bigger and deeper than ourselves. We will move our bodies, for this is the way of the feminine. And we will stretch our thinking, for this is what a free human does. We will not be the same at the end of the series as we were when we began.
This 4 workshop course is about learning how to move more deeply into ourselves and our truths as we navigate our transformation.
These four weeks are the first gathering of a community of kindred women.
All classes will be held on Wednesday evenings, 7p-9pmET
Session 1: Connecting to Source and Self - October 25
Session 2: Losing Yourself - November 1
Session 3: Finding Yourself - November 8
Session 4: Integration: Whole Self - November 15
Cost: $99 USD

This introductory series is an initiation and orientation into a deeper dive cohort coming in the Winter/Spring 2024. All program participants will receive a discount into the deep dive cohort program.

Back to me, your friend Gibrán:
Here is what I see when I look at the world. With one set of eyes I see loneliness and despair. Depression and anxiety. I see consumerism. Addiction. And escapism. I see fear. I see the need for healing. And I see those who are deeply lost.
With another set of eyes I see a world that is longing for the sacred. I see healing. I see people getting free. I see the courage of wide open hearts. I feel our collective longing to come together.
I experience the miraculous rise of the nonbinary, revealing itself in every place that dares make room for its light. And I also see men who feel like men. And want to be men. Good men. Better men.
I see a world in which the feminine has been oppressed, ignored, violated and repressed. But never, ever, truly subjugated. Nothing and no one can ever take all of Her away.
In my work, prayers and vision I feel an earth that says women must rise. That feels the potency, the glory and the rage of the feminine divine.
I see a thousand fire burnings all over the world. Not just the devastating fires of climate catastrophe. But the ancestral fires that we’ve kindled through the ages. The ones where we tell stories, we chant, we paint our faces, we drum and we dance. The ones that call us away from our laptops, and our coffee shops, our cubicles, to-do-lists, our doom scrolling and our fights. The ones that draw us into the primal bodies where we feel truly alive.
This fire is one of those fires. This heart knows it to be true.
It’s time.
Let’s dance.
PS Brothers. Really. Let’s celebrate. Support. And rejoice. There is work for us to do. We are going to do it and we are going to show up. Start with the Better Men Project. We’ve come together for years. And we meet again next week.
In the meantime. Make this possible for a woman that you love.
