Strong From the Start: Becoming the Man You Want to Be a 6-Week

Self-Paced Program for Young Men (Ages 13–17)

Built by men who’ve walked the hard road, so the next generation doesn’t have to. 

Most young men are growing up emotionally unprepared

 They’re overwhelmed by emotions they don’t know how to name.

They’re reacting instead of responding.

They’re drifting without direction — chasing approval, burying pain, or numbing out.

And most of them are doing it silently. 

At Amend, we believe it doesn’t have to be that way. 

Strong From the Start is a 6-week self-paced journey built to give young men the emotional tools, inner strength, and clarity they’ll never learn in school. It’s practical. It’s real. And it’s designed by men who understand what boys are really carrying — even if they never say it out loud.

Why Young Men Need This Now 

→ Because they’re being hit with pressure — but not being shown how to handle it.

→ Social media is shaping their identity before they know who they are

→ Friendships are breaking down without the skills to communicate

→ Emotional pain is being hidden behind anger, humour, or silence

→ Most haven’t had a man show them how to handle emotions with strength

This program is their anchor. It meets them where they’re at and teaches them how to stay grounded, make strong choices, and own who they’re becoming.

What They’ll Walk Away With

→ The ability to name and manage emotions without shame

→ Tools to calm themselves during stress or conflict

→ Self-awareness around who they are and who they want to become

→ A personal code of values and boundaries

→ Communication tools to speak honestly and set real boundaries

→ A roadmap to build a life they’re proud of

Why This Matters for Parents 

You don’t get to be there every moment of their journey — but you can make sure they’re equipped to face it. 

This program gives your son tools that most men never received until it was too late. Tools that help him

→ Process emotions without shutting down

→ Speak up instead of bottling up

→ Reflect instead of react

→ Take responsibility for his choices and his future 

Whether he’s struggling silently or just needs guidance to become grounded, this program will help him build real strength from the inside out.
