Safe Tables™
Strength, Presence, and Purpose from the Inside Out.
What Is a Safe Table™
There’s a difference between holding it together and being held by something solid.
Safe Tables™ are curated spaces for men who carry much — designed for honest dialogue, emotional fluency, and leadership that starts from within.
Facilitated by Steve Lackey, M.A., ASAT, AMAT, CPLC, each Table offers the structure, confidentiality, and grounded presence men need to grow without posturing.
This isn’t therapy. It’s a guided, facilitated experience where high-performing men learn to lead from the inside out — integrating clarity, accountability, and calm authority.
Safe Tables™ are for men ready to reclaim presence in every arena that matters — work, marriage, fatherhood, purpose, and legacy.
It’s not comfortable work. It’s necessary work — and it changes everything.
Who It’s For
Safe Tables™ are ideal for men who:
Lead in business, family, or community — yet rarely have a place to lay down the weight of leadership.
Appear strong and capable but feel privately disconnected, exhausted, or uncertain about what’s next.
Want to move beyond performing confidence to living it — grounded, calm, and clear.
Are ready to replace isolation with honest connection and accountability that sharpens rather than shames.
Value structure, depth, and practical growth over quick fixes or surface conversations.
Sense that it’s time to lead differently — from the inside out, with presence that feels whole, not heavy.
What Makes Safe Tables™ Distinct
Depth of Leadership and Human Transformation Experience
With over 30 years of experience spanning leadership, trauma recovery, and men’s development, Steve Lackey, M.A., ASAT, AMAT, CPLC, brings a synthesis few can offer. He creates spaces that are both structured and soulful—where accountability, clarity, and calm strength become the foundation for lasting change.
The Transformation & Identity Recovery™ Framework
This proprietary process guides men from reaction to reflection, and from survival to purpose. It’s not about repair—it’s about reclamation: recovering the presence, power, and peace that achievement alone can’t provide.
Trauma-Informed Facilitation
Each Table is grounded in nervous system science, emotional intelligence, and psychological safety—ensuring growth that’s embodied, sustainable, and real.
Action-Oriented Integration
Insight without application fades. Every session ends with focused, practical steps for life, leadership, and relationships—so transformation extends far beyond the room.
Diverse Brotherhood
Safe Tables™ bring together men from varied industries, identities, and stories—united by one shared intention: to evolve beyond old definitions of strength and success.
The Core Framework
Transformation & Identity Recovery
Men are invited to rediscover who they are beneath conditioning, comparison, and cultural expectations.
The process unfolds through four phases:
Assessment
Clarifying your current story and the pressure points shaping your behavior.
Alignment
Naming what matters most — values, relationships, vision.
Practice
Building embodied habits that support emotional regulation and authentic leadership.
Integration
Translating growth into daily choices that reinforce stability, faith, and self-trust.
