- Where can I stay?
For the past two years (2024 and 2025) we have been able to host our annual summits in the towns of Heber and Midway. These are pretty calm and peaceful towns away from the hustle and bustle of busy towns and about 15 mins from Park City, UT. If we get enough people to attend then we have a nice resort further south which we can have to ourselves for this event. - When should I plan to get there?
I would suggest arriving in Utah, on Wednesday evening if possible to allow you to settle in, but no later than 3 pm on Wednesday morning.
See more details below in Preparing for the summit section. - What is included in the price of this summit?
The registration price includes access to all the events, workshop materials and a 1:1 consult with me that you can avail at any time.
The price also includes snacks and non-alcoholic beverages during workshop hours (8 am – 5 pm). - What is NOT included in the price of this summit?
Room and board are not included. Room and board for single occupancy are available at a discounted rate for the entire trip. Room and board information and sign-up details will be sent to you after you have registered. You are, of course, welcome to get your own accommodation at a nearby hotel and drive up to the event location each day. In this case, you will only be provided lunch on Friday and Saturday.
Note: You will be given the option to sign up for room and board after you sign up for the retreat. I need to know how many people are planning to attend before I can make a call of our final accommodations. - How to get there?
A few members from the Salt Lake area will be driving down to the retreat on Thursday. Feel free to ask for a ride; in fact, we encourage you to do so as part of the process of overcoming your covert contracts. - What about outdoor activities?
As with previous summits, we will make time for some outdoor activities. One of the advantages of being in Utah is that good hiking and outdoor activities are easily accessible.
Preparing for the summit
What you can do to get the most out of this summit
Before you arrive, there’s something worth sitting with.
Most of us are practiced at preparing for things the way we prepare for performance: getting our answers ready, anticipating what will be asked of us, making sure we show up looking capable. That habit won’t serve you here.
The men who get the most out of this summit are the ones who come willing to be uncertain. To not know. To let something land instead of managing it.
Adeel will send out a homework activity in advance, not to fill your head, but to begin clearing it. Take it seriously. Give yourself space before the summit, not a sprint to the finish line of your regular life. Even a single day of quiet before you arrive makes a difference.
And consider this: the discomfort you feel heading into something like this, the temptation to hedge, to keep one foot out, to stay a little guarded, that discomfort is the work. It’s the same reflex that’s been running in the background for years.
You don’t have to solve it before you get here. But notice it. Bring it with you. That’s the beginning.
The same applies on the other end. Plan to give yourself a day or two after the summit before returning to your normal routine. What surfaces during this kind of work doesn’t always make itself known in the moment. Sometimes it needs a little stillness to settle. The reflection is not separate from the work. It is the work continuing.
Why attend this men’s summit
There’s a question that doesn’t get asked enough: Is the life I’m living the one I actually chose?
For many men in this community, the honest answer is complicated. Somewhere along the way, the drive to be liked, to avoid conflict, to keep the peace, just became the invisible force behind every choice. Career decisions. Relationships. How you spend your time. What you never say out loud.
The problem isn’t that you made wrong choices. It’s that so many of those choices were made to manage how others felt about you, which means, in a real sense, they weren’t fully yours.
This summit is about changing that.
I am not sharing a magical formula or a set of techniques, but we will be doing the hard work of: being genuinely seen by other men, sitting with uncomfortable truths, and beginning to build a life that has your name on it, not just your effort.
Previous attendees haven’t left with a better version of their old story. They’ve left with a different relationship to their story itself, more honest about what they want, clearer about what they’ve been avoiding, and less willing to keep shrinking.
If you’ve done enough reading and listening and nodding along, if you’re ready to actually live differently, this is the room for that.
Listen to the stories of men who have attended previous summits and experienced the benefits firsthand.
