“Where Men take charge of their own lives, through the Role Models & Support of other great Men”
What is the site about, and why did I create it, and have spent over 10,000+ hours developing it. What does the title mean?
Cecil’s Men’s Hub ~ The Virtual Men’s Gathering the Meaning
Cecil’s is an acronym (Committed to Empower the Community to Improve Lives) the site has been developed through my wish to give back to Men’s Work. To provide all Men, throughout Australia and the World the potential to connect with other Men, either through a Men’s Work Event, Men’s Health Event, Men’s Gathering or Men’s Group locally to them.
Cecil’s Men’s Hub ~ Worldwide Men’s Coach Directory is Live
What is the purpose of this Worldwide Men’s Coach Directory?
This directory aims to help men Worldwide find and connect with a Coach to help them move from where they are to where they want to be. To do this they need a Coach regardless of gender who has unique skills & wisdom in any one of over 120+ modalities of expertise.
The Directory is OPEN to all Coaches regardless of gender. If the Coach has an affinity with helping Men and can help them grow, to become the best that they can be for themselves, their loved ones and their communities, then they are welcome.
This service will always be FREE for all men to search to find and connect with a Coach nearby.
Each Coach that becomes a Gold Coach Founding Member of Cecil’s Hub – Worldwide Men’s Coach Directory can choose up to 5 different modalities of expertise to be listed under.
For a Coach to be able to choose up to 10 different modalities of expertise, they would need to become a Platinum Coach Member.

Cecil’s Men’s Hub ~ The Virtual Men’s Gathering, helping you to connect with a Men’s Gathering and Men’s Work
A Men’s Gathering, there are currently 17 per year in Australia, is where most of all you can connect with other men, from all backgrounds, religions, and political and sexual persuasions. These gatherings offer a safe, non-judgmental, supportive space where men can explore the connections, modalities, challenges and exercises that facilitate real and lasting change. They all offer high-quality workshops, you are free to take part in as many or as few as you wish.
This is your time, to use as you wish but hey, why not take advantage of them?
Connect with a Worldwide Men’s Group near you
A Men’s Group is where you can connect with other Men who are based locally, on a more regular basis rather than waiting for the next Men’s Gathering to continue your journey. As a result, your journey will be quicker. These are all facilitated by experienced Men who are trained in facilitating a group of Men. Training enables them to have a conversation with other Men without judgment. To sit in a group with other Men, and speak your truth. You may not come away with any answers but most issues always seem more manageable after ‘sharing’.
