In one sentence: We help men in mid-life who feel stuck and question their purpose to break free from the negative beliefs holding them back, so they can rediscover their purpose and live with clarity, confidence, and fulfillment.
Forging Truth exists to help people break free from the hidden beliefs that are quietly shaping their lives — often without their permission. We don’t believe in surface-level fixes, hype-driven promises, or one-size-fits-all advice. We believe in transformation that starts at the root: the subconscious belief systems forged in childhood, reinforced over time, and unconsciously driving adult decisions.
Founded by Doug Belkofer, a veteran and former software strategist turned transformation architect, Forging Truth is committed to making deep personal change not only possible — but practical, explainable, and repeatable. Through a blend of neuroscience, trauma-informed insight, and direct, unfiltered truth-telling, we help people finally see what’s really going on beneath the surface.
Our flagship initiative is The Phoenix Quest™ — a five-stage framework that guides individuals through rebirth, awakening, deep inner work, personal reconstruction, and ultimately, the rise into purpose. It includes a growing library of masterclasses, future retreats, and upcoming books and tools — all designed to wake people up and walk them through sustainable, belief-level change.
At Forging Truth, we believe that no one is too far gone, and no past is too broken to rewrite. You don’t need to be fixed. You need to see the lie in your head that is holding you back — and forge a new truth strong enough to carry your life forward.
