Redefining Masculinity for Teen Boys

Secrets of the Round Table

by Anneriek Favelle

Secrets of the Round Table is the book nobody handed you. It's about emotions, confidence, friendships, sex, mental health, your brain, and the kind of man you actually want to become — written like a conversation, not a lecture.

About The Book

Being a man isn't something you prove. It's something you build. And no one's actually shown you how. Secrets of the Round Table is the guide for that — for the parts of growing up that nobody talks about, and the version of yourself nobody's helped you find yet.

In this book, you'll meet your inner board of advisors—four parts of yourself that are already there, just waiting for you to notice them:
* The King — the part that leads, decides, and stands for something
* The Magician — the part that thinks deeply, sees patterns, and trusts its gut
* The Warrior — the part that gets stuff done and has the guts to do hard things
* The Lover — the part that feels, connects, and actually gives a damn

Most guys are running on one or two of these and wondering why life feels off. This book shows you how to access all four—so you don't have to pick between being tough and being real, between getting things done and giving a shit about people, between being a leader and being a decent human.

It's not a lecture. It's not your dad's "be a man" speech. It's a real conversation about emotions, confidence, friendships, relationships, mental health, your weird teenage brain, and figuring out who you actually want to be—with practical stuff you can actually use.

Whether you're ready to figure out who you really are — or you're a parent, teacher, or mentor walking alongside someone who is — this book's for you. Pull up a seat at the table.

Therapist, Author, and Sense-maker

Anneriek Favelle is a therapist, author, and perpetual sense-maker. Born in the Netherlands, she landed in Australia after the sudden loss of a dear friend shook her awake to the truth that life is too short to play it safe. She has an almost compulsive need to create structure out of chaos. Give her a tangle of therapeutic frameworks, the swirling complexity of human relationships, or a life transition that feels overwhelming — and she won't rest until she's organised it into something clear, practical, and usable. Writing is how she thinks — how she processes what she's learning and translates the profound into the practical. Her books span the territories she knows intimately: grief and self-discovery after loss, the messy work of relationships, helping boys grow into the men they actually want to be, and the transformation that comes when women reclaim their power. Each one exists because she couldn't find what she needed on the shelf — so she researched and wrote it. Today, Anneriek lives in Sydney with her husband and their two sons — both of whom unknowingly contributed to the writing of Secrets of the Round Table. She runs Inner Growth Therapy, where she works with individuals and couples. She is a certified Level 3 Relational Life Therapist and a Level 2 Internal Family Systems therapist, with additional qualifications in Counselling, Somatic and Dance Movement Therapy, Yoga, and Meditation.
