TRUE NORTH
The Mastermind
The 12 Week Mastermind for intelligent men to get unstuck, experience their power, and find more ease in love and relationships.
Join over 100 men who’ve already found their TRUE NORTH →
You’re successful on paper.
But something feels off.
You’re living with a quiet, constant tension inside of you.
In meetings, you hold back your real opinions and look to others instead.
In relationships, you struggle to be fully present and wonder why there’s just no connection.
At social gatherings, you feel like you’re wearing a mask and catch yourself saying things you don’t really mean just to make others feel comfortable.
You are a deep thinker, so I know you’ve tried to figure this out…
You’ve read the books. You’ve listened to all the top podcasts. You’ve even tried therapy.
And yet - not much has changed. Not where it matters.
You are still hiding.
And True North is here to change that.
AWAKEN YOUR TRUE NORTH
AWAKEN YOUR TRUE NORTH
This is for you if:
You find yourself hesitating, second guessing, & making yourself small
You look at other men who seem to have it figured out and you want that too
You feel like you’re performing a role instead of living authentically
You’re the guy everyone turns to for help, but you can’t ask for support yourself
You’ve achieved everything you “should” have, but still feel empty inside
You know you’re meant for more but can’t break through alone
Your relationships stay surface-level and you don’t understand why
Even If:
You’ve tried therapy and it didn’t ‘work’
You’re skeptical about “men’s work” or group programs
You’re not sure you can commit 4 hours a week to transformation
The Real Reason You’re Stuck in Relationships & Life
What if I told you that your struggles with confidence, connection, and purpose all stem from the same source?
A “survival program” installed in your nervous system when you were just a boy.
Back then, you made an unconscious deal: Give up who you really are to get the love you need in order to survive in your family of origin.
Maybe you became:
The Pleaser
Never rock the boat, never have needs
The Achiever
Prove worth through endless accomplishment
The Ghost
Stay invisible, stay safe
The Performer
Always “fine,” never real
Maybe it was a mix of more than one.
These strategies kept you safe as a boy. But now? They are sabotaging your relationships, limiting your success, and keeping you small and suffocating as a man.
The worst part? You can’t think your way out of this. (You are a smart man so I know you’ve tried).
Your survival patterns live in your body, not your mind. That’s why all those books and podcasts haven’t created lasting change.
More information is not the solution.
The truth is…
You are not broken. You are not weak. You are not “less of a man” for struggling.
You’re running outdated software that was written when you were seven years old.
Now it’s time for a massive system update.
I Know You’re All Too Familiar With the Following
Every. Single. Day.
Shallow Relationships
You’re surrounded by people, but profoundly alone. They know your representative, but not your truth. How many more years will you spend hiding from the people you love?
Constant Internal Monitoring
Your nervous system never rests. You’re always scanning, “am i doing enough? Am I being too much? What do they think?” It’s exhausting and it’s stealing your life force.
Emotional Numbness
You’re disconnected from your body, your heart, your instincts. Feeling nothing seems safer than feeling everything. But numbness isn’t strength - it’s solitary confinement.
Self-Sabotage Patterns
Right when things start working - the relationship, the business, the breakthrough - something goes wrong. Because deep down a part of you doesn’t believe you deserve it.
The Shrinking Life
Each year, you play it a little safer. Take fewer risks. Express less of yourself. Your world gets smaller as your regret gets bigger.
Can you afford another year of this? Another decade?
How much life will you let slip by before you say “enough”?

Her empathy is matched only by her courage to speak up on behalf of men who want better but don’t now how. A total warrior for a just cause.
I reached out to Anya after listening to one of her podcasts, fed up with living in fear and acting on misguided impulse in my daily life. Her compassionate honesty is the mirror I needed to work through so much pain that I had stuffed down. I finally felt seen and heard and could work through it, with her caring guidance. If you have reached the point where your pain is showing up in your life sideways and skewed, reach out to Anya.
- Joshua Gaul
My name is Anya Shakh.
And yes, I’m a woman who guides men through their deepest work.
Let me address the elephant in the room: “Why would I trust a woman to lead my masculine transformation?”
Here’s what the 100 men who’ve worked with me have discovered:
Your wounds with the feminine are exactly why you need a different perspective.
Half of your patterns were formed in relationships with women - starting with your mother. You’re likely going to be in relationships with women. And as an experienced female facilitator, I can see the blind spots that men show up with.
That’s exactly why I created True North: The Mastermind.

She understands men without judgment and her approach is practical. She builds a container that is intimate and steady.
You can be messy without losing respect. She will not coddle you, and she will not posture. She translates attachment, somatics, and the male-female dynamic into plain language and clear steps, so you always know what you are practicing and why. Here is the part most men have never had. With Anya you get a safe, honest space with a real woman where you can practice staying present, test better timing, and feel how your energy is received without the hidden cost of a relationship. That combination is rare. Working with Anya feels less like being coached and more like learning how to use your own instrument the way it was designed.
-Austin Gunter
Here’s the Real Reason This Works:
In my container, you don’t have to perform masculinity. You can just be human.
No competing. No posturing. No “who’s more alpha” BS. Just raw transformation in real time.
I studied under Duey Freeman, one of the pioneers in attachment-based men’s work. I’ve spent the last decade immersed in masculine psychology, nervous system regulation, and somatic trauma resolution.
My approach isn’t soft. I’ll call you on your patterns faster than you can blink. But I'll do it with the compassion that comes from seeing your greatness, not judgment about your struggles.
The men who were most skeptical about working with a woman have had the biggest breakthroughs. Because when you can finally be you without performing, everything changes.
Life goes from black and white to technicolor.

Working with Anya was transformative.
Her diligence prepping for each session made the time very productive and she showed her deep knowledge around her expertise and taught it well during both sessions and outside. The HW was insightful and the tools and knowledge gained will be useful for decades to come. I’d recommend her to anyone willing to put in hard work to better themselves.

We don’t just talk about your patterns - we rewire them at the nervous system level using proven somatic techniques that bypass your intellectual defenses and create lasting change at the cellular level.

3. Weekly 90-minute
Transformation Sessions
We gather weekly (at an agreed upon time) for deep work that rewires your survival patterns in real time. No fluff. Just powerful practices that create immediate shifts you can feel.

You’re One Decision Away
From Breaking Free
Every great story has a turning point. A moment where the hero stops running and turns to face what he’s been avoiding.
This is your moment.
You can keep trying to figure it out alone. Keep managing your patterns. Keep hoping something changes.
Or you can make the decision that changes everything.
Join the men who get it. Do the work that actually works.
Unlock your zone of genius and become who you were born to be.
“The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.”

You’re Standing at a Crossroads
Path A:
Keep doing what you’re doing, managing your patterns, reading books hoping something will click. Keep watching other men move through the world grounded, certain, unfazed while you do nothing. Keep living at 60% of your potential and watch another year slip by.
Path B:
Join True North. Do the deep work with men who get it. Let a guide who sees your blind spots lead you through proven transformation. Become the man you were born to be. On the other side of True North, you’ll be a different man, without a doubt.
Which path will you be most proud of?

There are no combination of words that can say the impact on the work Anya does and how it has affected me.
It was like turning a desert oasis into a planetarium of lush and fresh life. I could not imagine how much future success could have been attained without the work we did together, with the breaking down of barriers I did not know was there. The energy, knowledge, patience, and understanding she brings to the table showed me a future I did not know I had. From the bottom of my heart, and from the depths of my being, thank you.

Anya helped me push through limiting beliefs and become a better version of myself.
With her, I reconnected with something inside of me that had been broken for a long time. The time I spent with her as a coach was a time of constant learning and discovering how I could lead a whole different life as a son, brother, man and lover.

Working with Anya has been one of the greatest investments I’ve ever made.
In the uber complex dating world we live in, having a relationship coach on my side has made all of the difference. Anya helped me evolve into the person I am today which has empowered me to be a better person, partner and leader. By uncovering decades of early childhood development and learning the importance of sexual polarity, I was able to unlock the hidden potential in me and find the key to a happy and healthy relationship. Shortly after beginning my journey with Anya, I met the love of my life and am now engaged to be married! I could not recommend her enough to anyone looking to improve their dating and relationships, and overall life satisfaction!! I am eternally grateful to Anya!!

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Your patterns with women are likely where you struggle most. I see the blind spots men share and I can mirror back to you how you naturally show up with women in order to help you evolve.
-
90 minute weekly calls plus 2-3 hours of integration work. Less than 4 hours a week. If you don’t have 4 hours a week to transform your life, you’re not ready.
-
Life happens. Recordings are available. But showing up live is where the magic happens. Commit to at least 10 of 12 sessions live for the best results.
-
No. Therapy can help you understand your past, while this helps you launch forward into your future. We don’t analyze and talk in circles. We get to the heart of what’s not working, release it, then move forward.
-
The practices are based on neuroscience and 60+ years of attachment theory research. They might feel unfamiliar at first, but there’s nothing mystical going on here. Real change happens in the midst of discomfort.
-
Good. Most men’s groups are either too aggressive or stay too surface-level. This is neither. It’s a group of committed men doing important inner work and are looking for brothers to connect and collaborate with.
-
If you show up, do the work, and don’t experience significant transformation, I will work with you 1-on-1 until you do. That’s my promise.
-
Yes. Weekly calls are on zoom, making this globally accessible. 24/7 support will be via Telegram or voxer.
