Meet the founder
Randy Cook
Randy spent a 35-year career leading various healthcare organizations and raising a family. Randy believes toxic masculinity is as much symptom as cause of personal and societal pain. Randy has suffered from the effects of toxic masculinity himself, and has sometimes been a perpetrator of it. Randy has been working and growing in the “men’s work” community since 1996. In retirement, Randy is focusing his experience, compassion, and wisdom on helping men heal themselves, their families, and their communities.
Randy has spent time training for this new role through a Master’s degree in Theological Studies at Vanderbilt Divinity School and a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Southern New Hampshire University. In addition, Randy has and continues to engage in numerous certifications and training workshops, expanding his understanding of the ways men THINK, FEEL, and CHANGE. The training, experience, and compassion allows Randy to offer counseling for men, individually or in group sessions, lead and organize retreats and workshops for men, and to support men’s organizations trying to do the good work.
