Integrated Man: Brotherhood, Connection, Renewal

A Retreat for Men Cultivating Purpose, Emotional Depth, and Relational Intimacy

Society teaches men that we need to have our shit together. The pressure to achieve, perform, and succeed weighs on us. We carry responsibility — for our work, our families, and the people who depend on us. From the outside, things may look good. Inside, many of us are feeling stretched thin or quietly burning out.


At the same time, we often feel guilty making time for ourselves. We push ourselves to work harder, heal faster, and move on quicker, without giving ourselves real permission to tend to our own needs and hearts.

This retreat is about slowing down and coming together in the Colombian countryside as a community of men. It’s an invitation to rest, to reconnect with ourselves, and to develop healthier ways of relating — to our loved ones, our work, and our inner lives.

Through ritual, somatic exercises, and group work, we’ll create space to feel and move through what we’re carrying — including anger, grief, and unexpressed emotion. We’ll begin to gently identify the patterns that keep showing up in our careers and relationships, while also honoring where we are right now.

Each man is invited to engage in the retreat in a way that feels supportive and aligned. Healing and growth may come through nature and hiking, nourishing food and conversation, open-hearted community, career and relationship workshops, individual coaching, movement, and daily mindfulness practices we can take home with us.

Together, we’ll explore what it means to be a man today. We’ll cultivate a grounded, healthy relationship with masculinity — one that includes strength and sensitivity, stability and creativity. An integrated way of being: moving through the world with the steadiness of a mountain and the flow of a river.
