Scenario

When support groups struggle with deeper levels of vulnerability

Four of us have been doing a monthly men's group for almost three years and one guy recently shared something really heavy about his marriage and now the whole dynamic feels different. We're all being more careful with each other and I think we're afraid of that level of vulnerability but also afraid to talk about being afraid.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group encounters the edge of its own capacity for witnessing and must choose between depth and safety.
