Men's Oaks Retreat: Living An Incredible Life

Most men are doing a lot right. Work is moving, responsibilities are handled, people rely on you, and from the outside things look solid. The problem is that success does not automatically create a life is meaningful and fulfilling. It also does not guarantee you feel alive lot of meaning or purpose in what you do. Truth? A lot of men are quietly lonely, unfulfilled, and wanting to feel more alive. Life has become all output with little left in the tank.

Men’s Weekend at The Oaks is a practical life planning retreat designed for you to step out of the noise, examine what is driving your decisions, and get clear on who you want to be in the next season. Over the weekend, you will look honestly at your patterns under pressure, the trade offs you are making with your time and energy, and what keeps getting postponed.

A highlight of the weekend is a special session with Bob Goff. Bob has a rare way of helping people tell the truth about the life they are building, without shame and without hype. His session will be focused on courage, purpose, and living in a way that feels clean and meaningful, not just busy and productive.

There will be plenty of time outdoors, great food, play, free time, activities and real conversation. If you want a weekend that helps you get clear on what is driving your life, what needs to change, and what you want to build next, this is for you. Leave with a plan you can implement, a simpler sense of direction, and a stronger connection to the life you want to be proud of.

Optional Workshops and Sessions

Friday Evening: Welcome and Focus
We start by slowing down from the pace you just came from. This first session is about getting out of drive mode and actually arriving for the weekend. You will step away from noise, distractions, and expectations, and take an honest look at where you are right now. We will name what you want from the weekend, what feels unfinished or pressing, and what would make this time worthwhile. This session sets a clear baseline and gives you a solid starting point for the work ahead.

Saturday Morning: A Special Session with Bob Goff
Bob often says, “I used to be afraid of failing at something that really mattered to me, but now I’m more afraid of succeeding at things that don’t matter.”

Every life is built on trade offs. This session takes a practical look at how your time, energy, and attention are being spent, and what those choices are producing. We will examine where life is working, where it is costing too much, and which patterns are no longer worth their price.

Saturday Evening: What drives behavior and change

This session focuses on identifying the forces beneath your habits and choices. Pressure, ambition, responsibility, fear, approval seeking, and restlessness all shape how men operate, often without conscious awareness. When these drivers go unnamed, they quietly run the show. Using brain and nervous system science, we will explore value based living by getting underneath behavior to the root of why we do what we do and by practicing how to make choices from a more grounded and intentional foundation rather than reactivity or momentum.

Session Four: The Plan I Am Taking Home
This closing session helps you translate clarity into a realistic and sustainable plan. Rather than trying to change everything at once, you will leave with clear priorities, practical next steps, and a renewed sense of direction you can carry back into daily life. Sometimes the most meaningful outcome is a deeper sense of what feels true and alive. That kind of clarity has a way of shaping decisions naturally over time without forcing change so you can return to  your life more awake, more honest, and more present.
