“Being a part of this Brotherhood has transformed who I am as a person. I feel so much stronger, confident, openhearted and most importantly more truly myself.

The Brotherhood embodies an unconditional love that fully accepts you where you are and as you are, but also sees your potential, holds you accountable and pushes you to be the best you can be."

— Jacob, Brotherhood Participant, UK

Dear Brother,

Welcome.

Brothers of the Ever Innocent Heart is a brotherhood & intimate men's council that was founded in 2022.

For 3 years now we have held weekly council every Sunday.

In 2023, a Tuesday council was added as well and has met weekly since that time.

We have held a total of ~250+ men’s circles within this brotherhood, as well as several in-person men's retreats.

Though it was born out of the men’s work movement, Brothers of the Ever Innocent Heart has become something else over time.

While it’s still accurate to call it a brotherhood rooted in the practice of the men’s circle, it’s more than that as well.

It could be described as a monastery, cathedral, sangha, and training ground.

It fuses the energy of a group of dear friends with the energy of a devotional interpath seminary for the cultivation of New Earth leadership.

It unites the prayerful reverence of a Catholic mass with the wide-ranging elixirs one might find in Dumbledore’s apothecary.

If you imagine a wild marriage of the energies of Jesus Christ, Tom Bombadil, Sri Anandamayi Ma, Peter Brown, Lao Tzu, Kumankaya, Osho, Willy Wonka, Super Saiyans, and the Neverland Lost Boys, this is a pretty good approximation of the energetic landscape.

We journey through many seasons and flavors within the brotherhood, yet we remain rooted in the core pillars of devotional prayer, meditation, heartful sharing, raw truth, brave honesty, playfulness, free expression, and loving presence.

Grace, Love, Presence, and Courageous Spoken Truth are the central medicines.

Many of the most outstanding and lion-hearted men I know on Earth are presently part of this brotherhood, or have been part of it over time.

Deep, true friendships have been forged in these fires, and have borne many wonderful fruits.

Yet this still feels like just the beginning — with much more to come.

I am deeply excited about what all of us will co-create over time, as we continue to deepen our bonds, uplifting and empowering one another to rise.

This brotherhood has already incubated and given birth to (co-created) retreats, music albums, books, communities, movements, businesses, vocational opportunities, transformational containers, and collaborative partnerships.

We’ve seen men rise into new levels of purpose, creation, action, awakening, devotion, courage, and alignment — and we’ve seen men (re)ignite amazing long-term partnerships and marriages while in our care.

A central prayer of this brotherhood is to become like the Mighty Sequoia: Rooted deeply on Earth, branches rising toward the Heavens, centered in the Heart.

Something special has been cultivated here — and it is palpably felt in the field.

Real Love.

The Real Love that cracks Hearts open and brings sacred healing tears.

There is Real Love here.

If you’re ready to be part of something real and move your life forward in a beautiful God-aligned direction, this space is for you.

Do you know what it feels like...

Do you know what it feels like to speak the deepest truth of your heart?

Do you know what it feels like to be witnessed in your truth by brothers?

To be held in the warm embrace of Loving Presence as you bare the secrets of your soul?

Do you know what it feels like to strip yourself naked and reveal your hidden wounds, shadows, demons, and battle scars?

Do you know what it feels like for these hidden parts to be seen and loved exactly as they are?

Do you know what it feels like to share sacred space with real, honorable Men?

To be supported by Men brave enough to open their hearts, in a world that gives them every reason to close down?

To be surrounded by Men courageous enough to be who they are, in a world that is constantly trying to make them someone else?

Do you know what it feels like to love something so much that you would give up everything for it?

Do you know what it feels like to love your own soul’s truth so much that nothing could convince you to live a lie?

Are you meant to know these things, in this lifetime?

Are you called to become who you truly are, brother?

The God-Honest You.

The Real You.

If so…

Welcome home.

What is the Brotherhood, and who is it for?

Brothers of the Ever Innocent Heart is...

A Brotherhood Journey for men on the path of Truth.

Above all, this is about Men coming together to be as Honest as possible, and to hold one another in Loving Presence. That is the primary Medicine.

This is for men returning to Wholeness and embracing all aspects of their being.

For men on the path of embodying Wisdom, Courage, Integrity, Passion, Devotion, Discipline, Playfulness, Service, Freedom, Creativity, and Love.

For men who know we live in initiatory times and feel the call to Live Truth — in service to women, children, family, Earth, and the Whole.

For men who are called to be grounded, open-hearted, integrated, vitally alive, and above all — truly themselves.

Through meditation, shadow work, prayer, fasting, play, art, dance, improv, wisdom teachings, embodiment practices, rites of passage...

And above all, through the ancient practice of the Circle...

We Men who embark on this journey become brothers.

We see and love parts of ourselves we did not know existed, and thus return toward Wholeness.

We become more honest, artful expressions of our own souls.

We deepen in realization and embodiment of Mature Masculinity.

How does it work, and what is the commitment?

This Brotherhood is intended to support men to heal and grow over a span of several months, or longer. The minimum time-commitment, to ensure an impactful journey, is 3 months.

The cornerstone of the Brotherhood is the weekly practice of the Circle. We gather ~4+ times per month via Zoom for live sessions—these often involve a Circle and sometimes incorporate other modalities, practices, or exercises.

In addition, there are intermittent challenges and rites of passage for brothers to undertake together. There is also a private Telegram group for brothers to connect, share, discuss, and ask questions between live gatherings.

Men value what they invest in, and they invest when they're committed. As such, the Brotherhood is supported by a monthly financial contribution from the men who are part of it. This contribution is on a sliding scale, to accommodate men in different situations globally. When you apply, you'll be asked to indicate an approximate level of contribution.

More than finances, though, to join this Brotherhood is a deep energetic commitment to show up for yourself and your brothers. It is a commitment to open up and build real relationships. A commitment to prioritize the sessions and the work we're undertaking together. A commitment to give of your gifts, presence, time, and energy in support of the Whole. 

What you receive from this Brotherhood will directly reflect your depth of commitment. Do not apply if you are not sincerely ready.

What Men Say About the Brotherhood & My Work

I've been deeply immersed in Transformational Facilitation for nearly 7 years, and in Men's Work for nearly 5 years now.

I've had the honor of working with and impacting the lives of many great men during this time. Here are some kind things men have said about my work:

“Jordan's presence alone brings healing. He's the real deal."

— Thomas, Brotherhood Participant, Holland

——

"Jordan is an amazing guide in the process of introspection and collective men’s work. He listens extremely well, holds space with poise and leadership, models vulnerability and authenticity, and combines safety with a sense of challenge that has been extremely useful in my growth process.

This brotherhood offers a safe space to be a man, to share and accept all parts of yourself in a container free of judgement, and to grow and evolve into the type of person you want to be. For me, the brotherhood inspired vulnerability, courage, introspection, validation, and integration so that I could make real choices and changes in my life and continue to grow."

— Kenny, Brotherhood Participant, USA

——

"The depth of giving that Jordan possesses is unlike most. The value and insight he has provided me have helped me make significant changes in my life: I feel grounded deeply in my Power, I have gained great clarity on my Medicine and Offer, I have stepped into providing sessions, it has helped me align my life on multiple levels, and allowed me to cut through the bullshit that keeps me from living my Soul’s Joy. Through working with him I signed on my first long-term $5k client. While these steps have been challenging, the Space that Jordan nurtures is deeply fruitful." 

— Brady, 'Ouroboros' Mastermind & Brotherhood Participant, USA

——

"I’ve thought about engaging in men’s work for years, but never made the final step. I’m so glad I finally have. Jordan creates a container which feels both safe and challenging, allowing me to stretch myself while knowing he and others have my back. It offers something different to the other practices I follow to nourish myself, providing something like directive friendship, although I’m not sure I can necessarily encapsulate the unique place it holds in my life."

— Ronan, Brotherhood Participant, UK

——

"The brotherhood Jordan has put together has been enriching and heart opening. It’s been helpful and inspiring to have good men to share the triumphs and challenges of life with from outside my normal bubble."

— Zach, Brotherhood Participant, USA

——

"Jordan is a proficient and fiery leader in guiding his brothers through men's work. This container he's created is a potent catalyst, allowing men to fully step into their innate power and prevail on the battlefield of life."

— Adam, Brotherhood Participant, USA

——

"Thus far my experience is that The Sovereign Man container is/was the ultimate way of having a container/shared space. I find it difficult to maintain momentum in other shared spaces, but with the Sovereign Man container I felt a magnetic 'force' pulling me in all the time. It was like I was in a form of temporary vortex, outside of 'my' own control, in a scary and awesome way.

Around a month after the Sovereign Man container ended I am still sensing the echo of what I learnt about myself, other men and life in both a shallow and deep sense. I am still harvesting the fruits from what I have experiences about life and myself from the shared space. The Sovereign Man container was one of the most beautiful and transformative and important things that has ever happened to me."

— Edward, 'Sovereign Man' & Brotherhood Participant, Sweden

——

“[Regarding his experience on a retreat I created:] I wanna weep in the face of truth… Two things: There’s nothing to be afraid of, and Love is unlimited. I wanna hug you guys.”

— Sam, Retreat Participant & Brothers of the Ever Innocent Heart Participant, USA

——

"[Regarding his experience on a retreat I created:] There was just such immense love, encouragement, support and wisdom being poured into our hearts. The team was also just a beautiful mirror for us to ground into the truth. Because that's what it's all about. It is moving beyond the stories that we incessantly tell ourselves that keep us trapped in the prison of our minds. This retreat absolutely demolishes those shackles, and I'm super grateful. Thank you so much, it was beautiful. I learned so much from y'all, so much about myself. I am forever grateful. Thank you, I love you. Much love. Peace."

— Brady, Retreat Participant, USA

——

"[Regarding his experience on a retreat I created:] I leave feeling complete. More complete than I ever have. Acknowledging all the facets of my personality and all the depth that I choose to ignore at times... I feel a sacred connection to everything after this work. I'm so, so grateful to Jordan, Tanja, and the whole team. I want to continue this work for the rest of my life and see where it goes. It's a wonderful road. Sending big love and appreciation to everyone who was involved."

— Zach, Retreat Participant, USA

——

"[Regarding his experience on a retreat I created:] The experience has been really magical and healing. Just coming here to this amazing place and hearing all the wilderness feels so calming and relaxing. Being here with everyone in ceremony and all healing together and supporting each other really opened up my heart. My biggest highlight was the time after ceremony. Just sharing our experiences together and getting to know everyone and hearing their stories."

— Kevin, Retreat Participant, USA

——

"[Regarding his experience on a retreat I created:] My experience was beautiful overall. It was healing and it was life affirming and it was a gift that I gave to myself that I'm truly grateful of receiving. I really enjoyed the camaraderie, the sharing with each other and the group process. The entire process was in some parts challenging and in some parts a lot of fun, but overall enriching and helpful in a lot of ways. At this point in time, I feel like I need to come back here every year of my life just to bathe and bask in the love that is here."

— Austin, Retreat Participant, USA

——

"[Regarding his experience on a retreat I created:] My experience was really powerful. I’ve been going through a really rough time for the last four months or so and this felt like a deep reset and a remembrance of the joy and gratitude in the world and all the possibilities out there. The community, the medicine, the workshops… Everything just came together for a big reset."

— Eric, Retreat Participant, USA

——

"[Regarding his experience on a retreat I created:] Absolutely life-changing. The most important thing I've ever done. Years of therapy and pill medication did nothing compared to the accelerated program here. Beauty. Words don't do it justice. Incredibly profound."

— Jake, Retreat Participant, USA

The Story

Welcome, my friend.

I’m Jordan.

I am a simple man who loves God, Life, Family, and Truth.

I am a mentor of leaders, space-holder, healer, artist, writer, and rapper.

I am father of Lila, husband of Tanja, brother of Anna, son of Connie and Dan, and friend of all.

About 15 years ago, psilocybin mushrooms found me and initiated a process of radical opening to life.

To be blunt, the mushrooms began to show me that I—a small-town kid from Iowa, USA—was caged by my own mind.

I saw that I had been conditioned to lead a false life.

This opening was the end of life as I knew it…

And the beginning of a life devoted to truth, love, and freedom.

Little did I know where this quest would lead me…

It led me to wander this planet for nearly 10 years straight…

To explore dozens of foreign lands…

To travel to the very ends of the Earth…

It led me to hidden temples in the hearts of dense jungles…

To the far reaches of inner space…

To the darkest shadows of my own being...

To foul hells and luminous heavens…

It led me to befriend and learn from some of the greatest sages alive today…

It led me to spaces of unspeakable communion with Divine intelligences both Gaian and otherworldly…

It led me to share my truth by birthing hundreds of essays, five books, 20 rap albums, and numerous soul-liberating containers & retreats, both online and physically, on multiple continents…

It led me to the sacraments of Fatherhood and Marriage…

And to a deepening into the true meaning of Family and Tribe…

It led me to the repeated cracking open of my Heart…

To the continuous purging of my own poison, arrogance, and bullshit...

To the ongoing annihilation and rebirthing of myself…

It led me to fall to my knees and weep at the very feet of God.

Yes, my friend, God exists.

Though God is not what you think—not containable within any thought or image.

God is Mystery.

God is Truth.

God is All.

God is Now.

God is Nature.

God is You.

God is Love.

To serve as a clear channel for God's Grace and Love—while also simply being me—is the highest calling of my life.

Brothers of the Ever Innocent Heart arose from the purest Love I’ve accessed within myself, during the most profound Heart-opening of my life, in early 2022.

I feel I was guided to birth this Brotherhood as Medicine for our Earth.

Sacred brotherhood—rooted in the ancient practice of the Circle—revealed itself to me in recent years as one of the most powerful Medicines on our planet.

It is pure healing Medicine for the Heart and Soul—deeply needed by the Men of Earth at this time, myself included.

That is why I have allowed this Brotherhood to birth through me.

God willing, it is my sincere intent to humbly steward this Brotherhood, in Grace and Loving Presence, to the best of my abilities, for the Highest Good of All.

Thank you for reading this poetry from my soul, brother.

I love you.

Amen.

Love and Grace,
Jordan
