I just returned from an extraordinary 4-day retreat with Sacred Sons, and let me tell you, it was an experience like no other.

A transformative odyssey that left me buzzing with energy and insights.

I'm trying to land gently back into home life.

In the past, I've steamrolled those around me with my post-retreat energy, but this time, I'm aiming for a softer re-entry.

Why?

Because growth isn't just about pushing forward—it's about integrating what we learn into our daily lives.

Four fabulous days of getting real, finding our edge, and stepping into authentic manhood together.

Here’s the scoop:

• Finding the Edges: I learned the importance of not getting stuck in my head and looking for the wonder in everyday life. Remembering to breathe and take in the glory around us.

• Walking the Journey: It’s all about integrating what I learned into my daily grind – family, partnership, business. I’m focusing on being more heartfelt, understanding, empathetic, and curious. These are the keys to unlocking success that have eluded me before.

The Next Steps: I’m planning a 24-hour backyard retreat for local dads next month. Think breathwork, hot and cold therapy, fire, and brotherhood.
