My Books, Podcast, and Me


I’m Clay Boykin. I help leaders and individuals transform mental chatter into clear, actionable wisdom using a unique, intuitive framework that brings focus and clarity to both personal and professional life.

My approach draws from a rich tapestry of experience—years in corporate leadership and entrepreneurship, studies in depth psychology, ancient history, and leadership development—all grounded by my service as a U.S. Marine Corps officer. My journey has taken me to sacred sites like Göbekli Tepe in Anatolia, and my lifelong passion for mythology and archetypal astrology brings a deep, symbolic lens to the transformational work I do.

“Circles of Men” is a book by Clay Boykin that explores the power and significance of men’s groups and the transformative potential they hold for personal growth and collective well-being. The book offers insights and guidance on creating and participating in men’s circles or groups, where men can come together to support, challenge, and inspire each other in their individual journeys.

The author, Clay Boykin, draws from his personal experiences and interviews with men from diverse backgrounds to delve into the importance of fostering authentic connections among men. He explores the idea that in our society, men often lack spaces where they can openly express their emotions, fears, and vulnerabilities without judgment. Men’s groups provide a supportive environment for individuals to explore their identities, develop emotional intelligence, and engage in deep, meaningful conversations.

“Circles of Men” aims to break the stereotype of masculinity that promotes emotional suppression and isolation, emphasizing the significance of creating safe spaces for men to be themselves, be heard, and be seen. The book delves into various themes, including personal development, conscious communication, mentorship, and the power of community. (more…)
