Join Chris Kyle and Soma Miller for a 5-day Men's Leadership Immersion in the High Sierras to Reset and Re-Envision Your Life and Work

 

Emergent leaders and changemakers...

  • Cultivate an embodied relationship to the present moment in order to stay alert and engaged with life's inherent complexities
  • Thrive in an environment of like minded peers to support them in being accountable while forging a revolutionary path
  • Have a deep respect and affinity for nature but have lost connection to it as responsibilities and life's busyness have taken precedence
  • Have the courage to take risks, be with uncertainty, and challenge the status quo
  • Yearn to feel a sense of sacred purpose and living in greater alignment with their core values
  • Crave the deep empowerment that comes from showing up authentically without a mask
  • Are ready to play the biggest game they have ever played, while making a positive impact in the world

THE 3 PILLARS OF EVOLUTIONARY LEADERSHIP

EQUANIMITY

The capacity to be calm, clear, and composed in the face of adversity. To respond vs. react, while holding the totality of yours and others human experience.

RESPONSIBILITY

To take full ownership of your actions and your impact on your past, present, and your future, while empowering yourself to create your destiny.

INTEGRITY

Having an intimate awareness of your core values while practicing aligning your intentions, words, and actions with them.

We’ll also do process work that will help you clear out old beliefs and patterns that don’t serve you.

Healthy Organic Meals Prepared By Our Private Chef

We believe changemakers need to nourish their bodies well to function at the high level of performance required to take on a big mission. We've hired an amazing chef to prepare healthy, organic food to support and sustain us for the deep dives we'll be doing.
