Rachael Jaques, wife of Troy Jaques, mother to their three children. Currently living in Japan:

Having been a partner to a professional rugby player for the past nine years I have witnessed first hand the negative consequences that the old ideas of masculinity can have on individuals and those involved in relationships with them. For Troy and I, reading Pip Cornall’s books and listening to him speak about a new, inclusive sustainable masculinity has meant both a fundamental shift in the direction of our relationship and an improvement in our day-to-day communication. Troy has benefited greatly from Pip’s message, in building a more authentic self within the framework of his masculinity and in engaging in new, wider perspectives.

Grace Gawler, International Wellness Educator:

At last a simple booklet to help men with their emotional and psychological wellbeing; a great companion for Women of Silence. An excellent and much needed work. Highly recommended reading for all women and men!

Kris Massie, Australian Football League player for the Adelaide Crows:

Pip’s book is a step in the right direction in developing more awareness towards a healthier masculinity.

John W. Travis, MD, MPH, Co-Author, Wellness Workbook Series:

I admire Pip’s courage to tell it like it is, present viable alternatives and show us men how to accomplish them. This man walks his talk!

Troy Jaques, Rugby Coach, Former Brumbies and Wallabies Player says:

Reading Pip’s book has really helped me gain balance in my life. I have generally been a person to take the path of least resistance and content to be one of the boys, however, Pip’s easily understandable concepts have aided me in my search to find my authentic self.

The quality of my relationships with my wife, children, and friends has improved as I have explored a different approach to living than the one I have been exposed to most of my life. I now feel more confident as a man to make my own decisions regardless of what other people think, and this is personally, a very powerful feeling.
