“Rising from the ashes a peaceful warrior in the garden of life...”

“Diving into John’s work was akin to self-immolation - incinerating who I thought I was and rising from the ashes a peaceful warrior in the garden of life.”

“My marriage is flourishing, my businesses are thriving, and I am physically, financially, and emotionally in the best shape of my life...”

“In 2019, I felt isolated, lonely, and underperforming. I could count my close guy friends on two fingers, and I was struggling in a new marriage. I sought a men’s group, and John Wineland’s EMLT program found me. I suspect I have held the record for most of my years as a member, and thanks to EMLT, I no longer feel isolated. On the contrary, I feel well-seen, well-nourished, and well-loved. I now have a dozen men I count as close friends and another 50 who would get on a plane and fly to wherever I am if needed. My marriage is flourishing, my businesses are thriving, and I am physically, financially, and emotionally in the best shape of my life. I give the credit for my current state of affairs to my willingness to play all out and to the experiences, support, love, and accountability I received from John and the many amazing men I’ve connected with through EMLT. A day doesn’t go by without feeling a sense of gratitude and appreciation for all the ways that EMLT has transformed my life. "

“I felt deeply in my heart that EMLT was a chance to redefine what it meant for me to be a man...”

“I felt deeply in my heart that EMLT was a chance to redefine what it meant for me to be a man in the world for generations to come. To find community and belonging with a community of men who feel as deeply as I do who are committed to being better men. I'm also coming away with so much optimism and hope for what this world can be when we step into our fiercest parts of our heart.” 

“I feel like I’m finally becoming the man I’ve wanted to be for years...”

“EMLT catalyzed massive transformation in my life. Since joining, I’ve clarified my purpose, taken on a new leadership role in my work, and increased my income by over 50%. I’ve vastly expanded my nervous system capacity and can hold space for my daughter’s MASSIVE emotional storms. My wife trusts me way more and our intimacy has reached new depths. I own my needs now and am thriving. Most importantly, I feel like I’m finally becoming the man I’ve wanted to be for years. I’m beyond grateful for this program, John and the other teachers and assistants.” 

“John Wineland's EMLT in 2024 was one of the best decisions I made...”

"I took a chance. Knowing that the kind of work that John and his team brings to men's work is very challenging and confronting, but the growth that came from it was beyond what I honestly thought I was going to get out of it. From the first call to the last retreat, the amount of growth I saw and how I wanted to show up now as a leader in my community and for my family just skyrocketed. And I left that program feeling so grounded and centered in who I am as a man in this world. I can't recommend it enough to any man who's really trying to embody more leadership qualities from themselves and those around them. Thank you, John. Thank you to the small group leaders, the program assistants, they're doing great work out there."
