This week, my focus was entirely on The Balanced Man Retreat, the men’s retreat I host here in Costa Rica. It’s an opportunity for men to pause from their daily routines and truly reflect on who they are and what they want to create in their lives.

For me, this retreat is a direct reflection of my DMP. It’s about bringing men together in a place I love, engaging in physical challenges, and fostering authentic conversations. One of the most powerful moments is taking the group up to my land for a hike to the waterfall.

It’s not just about the physical challenge, it’s about stripping away distractions, being present, and allowing clarity to emerge.

These retreats make me feel alive. Seeing men arrive as strangers, feeling lost or disconnected, and then witnessing their transformation throughout the week is something I can’t put into words. By the end of the retreat, they’re reconnected, to themselves, to a vision for their lives, and to a brotherhood that will continue to support them long after they leave.

It’s a reminder of why I do this work. When men step into an environment where they can be real, push their limits, and learn from one another, everything changes. They return home with renewed energy, purpose, and a sense of belonging.

That’s what this is all about, coming back to who you truly are, surrounded by a community of brothers that has your back, and knowing that you have all the answers within you.
