My Philosophy
I’m Dennis Hull, a trauma-informed coach and somatic and tantric practitioner dedicated to guiding women on a journey of healing, empowerment, and radiant self-discovery. I believe that women are literal portals to creation, deserving of honor and the freedom to live wildly in their pleasure, power, and purpose. My work is rooted in the philosophy that when women channel their life-force energy and creativity toward their purpose, their lives—and the lives of everyone around them—transform profoundly for the better.
While I coach men too, my calling is to support women. Empowered women are the key to a thriving, harmonious world. My role is to create a safe, nurturing space where women can shed the layers of shame, fear, and self-doubt, reconnect with their sensuality, and embrace their authentic, wild, and beautiful selves. I see men at their best as supporters, protectors, and champions of feminine energy, proudly creating safety and reverence for the women in their lives to fully express their passionate, messy, and brilliant truth. Working with me will help you and your body remember and know what it feels like to be in the presence of a safe, strong, masculine man.
Through a blend of somatic practices, trauma-informed coaching, and tantra, I guide women in unlocking their creative power, healing old wounds, and rediscovering the joy and freedom that come from living in alignment with their values, deepest desires and highest potential. Together, we’ll explore the magic that happens when you step into your full power—bold, unbound, and unapologetically you.
About Me
At the age of 9, my maternal grandmother, who suffered severe depression before it was truly recognized, said to me in one of her darker moments, “You always know what to say to make me feel better.”
That moment was formative to my purpose as a supporter of advocate for women. A purpose that I live wholly today, helping you to rediscover your radiance, reclaim your sparkle, own your sensuality & creative power and step into your authentic self with confidence and grace.
My grandmother was one of many influential women in my life. In fact, I was surrounded by women in my family. My parents divorced when I was age 10 and while my father was engaged, and we had a good relationship, I grew up primarily with my mother & younger sister. And on my father’s side, I was the only male cousin. I witnessed and was there in support of a lot of pain and injustice towards women. I saw how they behaved & felt around men.
The impact on my dating years was a double-edged sword. It felt good to be a safe space for women, to be their advocate and supporter, but it felt lonely and isolating to be “friend zoned.” Without really knowing it at the time, I was downplaying my masculinity and behaving like a textbook “nice guy.” Even so, I met an amazing woman, and we married and had three children including a lovely daughter. Raising her, I saw that for all the progress made by women, there was, and is, still a long way to go. And I saw the endemic effects and pain of the “nice guy” on both women and men. I saw and felt in myself the tension between providing safety as a man and not being a disrespectful “rescuer.”
My interest in well-being and advocacy for women grew. And I wanted to be better myself. So, I set out to learn about femininity, masculinity, relationship dynamics, women’s struggles, what they want & need in general and from men, and how men can be supportive to women, without being controlling. To be affectionate, compassionate, and generous without succumbing to their own taking energy, or expecting women to trade their own affections for the sincere love and respect they deserve. This is when my philosophy began to take shape.
I was also on the corporate treadmill during this time, feeling like I was constantly being asked to compromise my values & ethics, especially with respect to human dignity and compassion. The most significant incident resulted in the only disciplinary write-up I ever received in my corporate life. I was branded “not a team player” as I advocated for a woman who was being mistreated professionally. My nice guy tendencies were healing from my studies and I never set out to “rescue” her. She, like most women, did not need rescuing, she needed support because the system is stacked against her. I advocated hard, but we both lost. She finally decided to leave the company, commending my support for her. I was reprimanded and lost a large chunk of my bonus. And I have never once regretted standing in my integrity in support of her.
I had always suspected but knew for sure then that corporate life wasn’t for me. I nevertheless stayed too long because I was a family man who had a family to care for. This had me in a state of constant tension between being true to my values or supporting my family. A false dilemma, but a real fear. It tore me down and in that stress some of my nice guy tendencies resurfaced, which made me feel even worse. I left that corporate role, took up voice-acting and returned to my studies of men, women, relationships, communications and so on. I hired a coach who helped me reclaim my masculinity, drop the nice-guy tendencies and remind me that I am and have always been an advocate for women. She suggested that I explore whether advocating & supporting women was my purpose, and if it was, how could I live for that purpose.
I continued my studies with those thoughts & feelings swirling. I found a somatic therapist and through embodiment work I further healed my wounds and grew as a man. I accepted my strengths, my own value and worthiness to be loved. I learned to care for myself, set and hold boundaries, and to be a safe, grounding man in support of everyone around me, particularly women. That embodiment work led me to tantra where, in group settings with men and women, I found that the men were seeing me as an example and the women felt safe, seen, heard, and held with me. I was being called “gifted” and “a man of impeccable integrity,” and a man who created safety & structure without being controlling or having expectations. And my acceptance of that revealed what my coach already knew. My purpose IS to advocate for and support women. Showing them love-energy, affection and understanding without being needy myself or expecting favors from them in return.
Around me, women find peace. Your body remembers what it feels like to be in the presence of a safe, masculine man. To not be objectified, taken from, or feel under threat. To receive without expectation. Especially to receive love and pleasure without feeling pressed into physical acts you don’t want. With me, you are free to be expressive, wild, and even messy. To be feminine & creative with support and encouragement. To be in your power without giving up your softness.
To sparkle with your own radiance!
