Power Without Restraint. Direction Without Force. Strength with Roots.
Our Mission
The Grounded Man Project exists to support men in becoming steady, self-aware, and deeply rooted in who they are.
We create honest conversations and practical tools that help men reconnect with their inner strength, clarify their purpose, and build lives anchored in integrity, presence, and responsibility. Through story, brotherhood, and lived experience, we challenge isolation and surface-level masculinity, offering a path toward emotional maturity, meaningful relationships, and embodied leadership.
This is a space for men who are done pretending—and ready to stand firmly in themselves.
Our Purpose
The Grounded Man Project exists to help men reclaim their strength, purpose, and sense of worth—by doing the work together.
We create a space for honest conversation and shared experience, where men can speak what has gone unspoken and face the challenges that quietly erode their lives. Loss of passion. Loss of direction. Disconnection in relationships. The slow, corrosive belief that they are falling short as men.
These struggles are common—but they don’t have to be permanent.
GMP was built to help men step out of isolation and into grounded brotherhood. Not through posturing or performance, but through truth, accountability, and steady action. One conversation. One decision. One day at a time.
Justin and Mike have lived this work. They’ve faced the loss, the confusion, and the internal battles—and they’ve rebuilt from the inside out. The Grounded Man Project is the result of that journey, created to walk alongside other men who are ready to stop drifting and start building again.
The GMP Podcast
The Grounded Man Podcast is a space for men who are done carrying their struggles in silence and ready to rebuild from the inside out.
Through honest conversation, lived experience, and practical insight, we explore what it means to reclaim strength, purpose, and self-respect in a world that quietly pulls men off center. This podcast addresses the unspoken battles many men face—loss of passion, loss of direction, disconnection in relationships, and the internal dialogue that tells them they’re falling short.
Hosted by Justin and Mike, two men who have walked this path themselves, The Grounded Man Podcast offers grounded guidance, real stories, and steady perspective—without performative masculinity, empty motivation, or surface-level answers.
This isn’t about becoming someone new.
It’s about returning to who you are—one honest conversation and one grounded decision at a time.

There was a season in my life when I lost myself.
I lost direction. I lost passion.
And at my lowest point, I questioned whether I even wanted to keep going.
On the outside, I looked fine. On the inside, I was unraveling.
That season forced a decision: Stay stuck… or rebuild from the ground up.
I chose the harder path.
Through talk therapy, men’s groups, retreats, solitude, physical training, and deep internal work, I began reconstructing my life — not around ego, reputation, or approval — but around integrity and ownership.
I stopped trying to look strong. I started becoming steady. I started learning to love myself.
Today, I live at my edge. I train hard, I spend time in nature, and I use my learned skills to continuously work on growing myself. I pursue challenge - not to prove something, but to sharpen who I am.
A grounded man is not loud.
He is not reckless.
He is not emotionally numb.
He is steady under pressure.
He is disciplined in private.
He is self-aware enough to confront his shadows.
He is strong enough to protect — and safe enough to trust.
Justin and I built The Grounded Man Project because too many men are silently carrying weight they don’t talk about — confusion about identity, pressure to perform, fear of failing, and a quiet sense that something feels off.
You don’t have to hit rock bottom to rebuild your life.
But if you have — you’re not alone.
This project exists to challenge men to grow, to reclaim ownership of their internal world, and to build strength with roots.
If you’re ready to do the work — welcome.
Hi! Justin here and while being a certified clinical hypnotherapist and Life Coach with a passion for helping individuals unlock their potential and achieve lasting change I felt there was something missing. Not in what I do, but in how we get our information out there for men seeking more. With extensive training in clinical hypnotherapy, I specialize in areas such as stress management, anxiety reduction, habit control, fears & phobias, quit smoking, and enhancing self-confidence. Within this spectrum in life I've always wanted to be able to share my life experiences on a very organic and raw level. In some instances a more down to earth type setting rather than it being a straight up therapy session. I'm not going to sugar coat anything. If I can help one man out there or anybody in need of some uplifting and encouragement with pushing you to your limit I'm your guy."The Grounded Man Project" inhibits the tools in being the master of your own ship. While combining compassionate care and real life circumstances I Justin have created personalized and organically tailored topics with my partner in crime Mike Ingalls. We're very dedicated to fostering the supportive environment while also telling you how it is. I have empowered my clients to overcome challenges and embrace personal growth through the transformative power of hypnosis and life coaching. Taking back your power with our guidance, life experiences, and darkest to lightest hours. We're "The Grounded Man Project" and As I tell all my clients, you have all the answers, I’m just here to guide you to your next goal, your next achievement and for you to look at the Man in the Mirror with a powerful conviction of strength and empowerment. We are here to uphold our duty and our mission is simple: Give the men in this world the confidence to break past obstacles that have left you stuck, relationships that crash, and an overall self worth worthy of Love and Healthy Masculinity. If we help one man out there then I believe we have succeeded! Within one life changed we will create a ripple effect that echos with a firm grounding that shakes the rooms you enter. So take a listen, or don't. I know we're answering the call and showing up. Will You?
