I have had the opportunity to experience Christy's work as both a fellow writer and an editor of my work. She takes impeccable care of her words and that of others. She intuitively understands how to sharpen, highlight, and craft articles such that they bypass the mind and immediately penetrate the heart. She puts her whole self into everything she does, which sets her apart from the mainstream, and naturally makes her a mentor to anyone she crosses paths with. I've also had the pleasure to get to know Christy personally, and easily put her on my top 10 list of people I admire. She's gracious, refreshingly honest, self-reflective, and, through all of life's challenges, always maintains her unique sparkly sense of humor! It is a gift to know and work with Christy, and I recommend her at the highest level for her professionalism, entrepreneurship, and skill.

I have had the pleasure of working with Christy Williams at The Good Men Project. Her work is always spot on as an Editor. She is dependable, reliable and professional. Christy is one of those people who you can give a job to and just walk away with a sigh of relief, knowing it is in competent hands and will be done well. I recommend Christy highly for any Editing job or assignment.

      The conversation no one else is having.® “The Good Men Project® is a glimpse of what enlightened masculinity might look like in the 21st century,” the press raved when we launched. We had set out to start an international conversation about what it means to be a good man in the 21st century. And with over 3 million visitors coming to join in every month, it looks as if we’ve done exactly that. The Good Men Project is a diverse community of 21st century thought leaders who are actively participating in a conversation about the way men’s roles are changing in modern life—and the way those changes affect everyone. We explore the world of men and manhood in a way that no media company ever has, tackling the issues and questions that are most relevant to men’s lives. We write about fatherhood, family, sex, ethics, war, gender, politics, sports, pornography, and aging. We shy away from nothing. Our content reflects the multidimensionality of men — we are alternatively funny and serious, provocative and thoughtful, earnest and light-hearted. We search far and wide for new stories and new voices from “the front lines of modern manhood.” And we do it without moralizing and without caricaturizing our audience; we let guys be guys, but we do it while challenging confining cultural notions of what a “real man” must be. Guys today are neither the mindless, sex-obsessed buffoons nor the stoic automatons our culture so often makes them out to be. Our community is smart, compassionate, curious, and open-minded; they strive to be good fathers and husbands, citizens and friends, to lead by example at home and in the workplace, and to understand their role in a changing world.
