Welcome to The Imperfect Mens Club!
This is an unsafe space for men who are seeking better ways to thrive in midlife. Men who lean toward beliefs rooted in data, logic and personal accountability
If you are bumping up against life and have not been able to figure things out yet, you’ve come to the right place
If you have begun questioning what you’re doing, how you’re doing it and/or why you’re doing what you’re doing, you’re in the right place
If you have a bunch of questions and you feel embarrassed or scared to talk about them, you’re in the right place
If you’ve felt new uncertainty about your future creeping into your day to day thoughts…welcome to the club!
My name is Mark Aylward and my partner and colleague in crime is Jim Gurule. We are the co-founders of The Imperfect Mens Club. We are men looking to serve other men with guidance and advice born of experience and a lifetime of taking risks, failing aggressively, getting back up and moving forward.
None of us are immune from tragedy, distress, failure and success. For too long men have shied away from talking about “emotions”, “feelings” and other personal shit that we feel might threaten our manhood. We aren’t looking to kiss your ass or blow smoke up your skirt. We want to open you up to all the possibilities that you can’t yet see for whatever reason.
Our podcast is on the rise and we are producing new content every day
We are fathers, sons, husbands, athletes, inventors, entrepreneurs and friends…just like you…read more below…
Who Are You Guys?
The best way to get to know us and find out more about how we might be able to help you is to schedule a free consultation with us and we can explore what you are looking to address, what you’ve tried already and what new options we have to recommend. Then you can tell us whether you want to engage us more formally.
We have a comprehensive “Jump Start” coaching program that we will customize to your specific needs and values. All of our work is directed by our imperfect philosophy that everything starts from the foundation of SELF. Life begins with who you are and fans out from there into 5 main areas:
Mind/Body
Profession
Money
Relationships
Worldview
How Do I Find Out More?
Let’s Talk And See How We Can Help
Our podcast is raw...no edits, no music, no commercials. My buddy Jim and I have fun talking about life and business and anything we find interesting. We're both successful entrepreneurs, former athletes, fathers and we don't shy away from controversy. We don't agree on everything and we both like to laugh
