Shoulder to Shoulder

A place for men to grow together

What's Shoulder to Shoulder?

Tom was on a Netflix TV show called Love is Blind and Dan is a men's mental health speaker and content creator. After connecting on Instagram they realised they had a lot in common. They said things like:"I don't fancy a beer, let's grab a coffee instead?"
"Why does it feel weird that two men who don't know each other are meeting up"
"Men are asked to talk more, but where are they supposed to do that?"
"Why aren't everyday guys who are clear on their values being promoted as role models?"So we created a space for men like us. Men who value connection, community and growth. Men who might be doing well on the outside, but feel lost on the inside.We started meeting for regular walks and coffees, set up a Whatsapp group and sold out our first yoga event

Our Principles

The aim is for the community to feel aspirational, like something you're proud to identify with. This is why we created the following principles

  • 1. Ambition: We're all ambitious, but not necessarily in the sense of financial remuneration or status. It's an ambition to make our lives and the lives of those around us as fulfilling and joyful as possible

  • 2.Growth: We all want to improve ourselves and help others in the community to grow, as well as grow the community itself

  • 3. Authenticity: We are who we want to be. We're not constrained by rigid masculine principles

  • 4. Connection: We understand that connecting to ourselves and to others benefits everyone in the community

  • 5. Respect: We treat all genders, races, religions equally and with respect. We call out disrespect in others

Inside the S2S Community you will find

  • 1. Different WhatsApp Groups with a few different chats. We talk about relationships, work, grief, and light hearted stuff too. Everyone rallies around each other, it's pretty cool to see. We also set fortnightly challenges to grow together too!

  • 2. Details about our meetups. At the moment these include walks and coffees, hikes, and other activities like yoga or padel tennis. Don't worry if you're nervous, after the first few minutes you'll feel right at home - we're a very friendly bunch of awesome guys
