FRD Colorado Retreat: July 2023

The Power of SPACE

This is a recap of a recent retreat I led out here in Colorado. It was a men’s retreat through Front Row Dads, which I designed and led with my good friend and FRD brother, Chris Emick. Chris and I started planning this retreat last year when we were hiking a 14er together, then earlier this month we put things in motion with the FRD team.

The theme of the retreat was two-fold:

  1. First, we wanted men to have an opportunity to disconnect and experience time with no demands.  Time away from normal life and responsibilities. This is a concept we picked up from John Wineland's book - From the Core.
  2. Second, we wanted men to discover their wild, primal self.  Chris and I believe that nature is a natural playground, and the perfect environment to come back to who we are at our core.  It's inviting us to rediscover our wild, primal self.  The self that was designed from nature.

Eight men committed to the retreat and helped co-create an extraordinary experience.
