"It was very well organized. Tyler and Brannon were flexible and able to adapt to different situations based on group needs/weather, etc. Plenty of good food. Loved the sunrise event and the workshops were very useful. I liked the analogy of our relationship being like a boat and learning the three things that a relationship’s integrity consists of. Chase did a great job with the visual aspects. I appreciated that a notebook was provided. Also the complimentary earplugs were a nice (and useful) touch ;)"

I am grateful for having attended and am honored to have been able to meet so many of the other brothers who were there. Either Brannon or Tyler mentioned at one point that the retreat is somewhat of a passion project of theirs to help others with their recovery--that it's not really much of a money-maker for their businesses, and they could actually make more money doing other things--so I respect their (and Chase's) commitment to helping with others' recovery and the sacrifice it represents.

I attended the 2023 retreat at Bear Lake with these guys. It was definitely a life changing event in my life journey. A couple of the stories told on this episode were a part of my weekend, the stories bought back memories of the experience and the events that altered some of my beliefs about myself and my relationship with my higher power. The story of the guy in the tree and the one we left behind were on that weekend along with the 400lb calf story, Brought a smile to my face and I re-experienced the love and connection to the other men that weekend hearing these stories. If you are thinking about going and are hesitant about it due to some fear or or other blockage in your ability to fit in, I want to encourage you to take a leap of faith and go on this journey. It was well organized (I suppose they do head counts now on the way out of the wilderness...lol) and the food was remarkable. It will change you as a man. you will start to embody the principles that these 2 men disseminate on every podcast, that you are loved, that you are enough and you are worthy of love.

You won’t be disappointed with this retreat. It was unbelievable and it far exceeded anything I was expecting and if you’re expecting not much to happen or that God won't reach you here, He will!

"I loved the focus on connecting with God and with our inner child. For me the only time I can truly remember living life with passion and with joy was when I was a child so reflecting on and taking time to remember the experience of being a child was really helpfully in helping find purpose. I loved sharing my experience as it helps me remember what it's all about and it's awesome to see people have moments of clarity that can possible be a source of them shifting the way life occurs to them. Overall I really enjoyed the experience and love what you guys are doing!"

I was not disappointed in anything. The staff were great - easy to talk to and very encouraging. The material was spot on for me. The activities expanded my soul in unexpected and wonderful ways. I was thoroughly wiped out at the end of each day. The two Bros. were down to earth and available to talk to.

Great experience, being able to challenge our fears and define purpose and masculinity. Finding my names that God bestowed on me and trying to live that out. Being able to tap into my creative side and committing to drawing more, instead of relying on cameras.

"What you got right was digging in deep right away and not letting up. Setting the tone by calling each of us out through shame screens - a lot of my therapy and 12 step work has a light touch, and it was great to get in-your-face feedback, through love, strength and freedom - it was relational evaluation, not just self-evaluation. I need more of that, both give and take. Pushing us to face fears. Doing hard and crazy things. Good balance of physical, spiritual and emotional. Great food.

I feel a lot more love in my heart as I was able to connect with God, and that has released a piece of the hardness and coldness that I’ve been carrying around for a while, which has kept me stuck in certain ways. This retreat is completely worth it. I’ve come back twice now and I’ll probably be back who knows how many more times. It’s just worth it!

"Great job! Changed my life for the best and reaffirmed past feelings. Plus made me be ok and love me. As a man, husband, father, gamer, what I enjoy, etc. It makes me want to be more who I am in each of those to be the best I can be and put off examples of being a real man in each of those areas is possible without needing to be a societal norm. :)"

Guys, I truly don't know what to say. It was such an amazing event. I had previously done a two week intensive at the Begin Again Institute in Boulder which was life changing in it's own way, but if a man had two weeks of this at his fingertips I have no doubt that they'd have a damn near unshakable foundation in their recovery moving forward and could topple mountains. I'm working on (begging) Chase to let me come back next year to be on staff. I want/NEED to be a part of this for other men!

"I just really appreciate all of the work everyone put into this, especially Tyler and Brannon, but also Chase, Rhiannon and Linda. I honestly feel so blessed and grateful to have the resources we do with Love Strong. I feel like you guys are a huge reason we were inspired to come to Cache Valley. You both really have a gift and I just appreciate so much your willingness to share that so openly. And thanks for making it such a comfortable and accepting atmosphere... Also your mom is awesome! Haha!"

The camaraderie. The vulnerability and providing a place of safety that gave a perfect balance of pushing us out of our comfort zones, yet giving a safe space to land. The atmosphere of fun, of brotherhood. The variety in experiences. The selection in staff members. The setting. Frankly, even the balance of the religious aspect. As the lone (I believe) non-believer of the group, I never once felt uncomfortable nor overwhelmed by the presence or discussion of God in the curriculum.

This retreat has completely changed my outlook from an inward focused life as I was wrapped up in my problems, and now that has busted wide open to an outward focus . It’s got me thinking how I can impact lives.
Todd

★★★★★
This retreat has helped my relationship with God. I've always had a very static and sterile impression of God, and He was very real this week. This weekend has changed me as I now hope go to God as a son, instead of a worshipper. It’s a change I was looking for, and I’ve got a better understanding of who He is.

This experience has helped me see myself in a different light. It's something that I’ve never really seen myself as, and that is that I am more worthy than I ever thought. I’ve learned that my imperfections don’t define me, and don’t make me unloveable. I realized that I can be vulnerable with my friends, brothers, family, and those around me.

"Brotherhood, the huge emotional response it gave to me that I wasn't expecting, helping me continue to love who I am, building my relationship with God/Christ, knowing I can still be me and have my own passions, hobbies, and interests yet they can be respected even If there were men there who had different interests. Lastly I never expected to huge process it was going to force me to go through that I needed and couldn't see without it...environment was great, food, sunrise experience, cinder blocks, and just bonding. Sweet!"

"I liked the sense of connection and that we got right down to being vulnerable and getting to the heart of the matter. I liked being paired with a variety of people to get to know more people. I enjoyed the physical activities to help me learn with more hands on things."

You broke down the walls of my shame and opened my heart. I remember being at the beach and feeling so much empathy compassion in my heart for the other men. I’m not sure I have ever felt that so strongly for another man. The activities were awesome! The journal times were spiritual. The friendship formed was everlasting. You pretty much got everything right. I am so grateful for that retreat. Redemption day was amazing as well. One of the funnest days of my life.
Darrel

"The team building activities were really good, the feedback about what type of mask you wear, the forcing us to tell the group what we learned about a person we didn’t already know, the talks the therapists gave about the masculine heart (Tyler on us being made in Gods image and Gods nature, esp. him being Wild and the poems he recited were excellent elements), getting out and hiking."

This retreat has helped me gain more confidence . It has made me realize that I’d like to serve others and have a greater purpose in my life other than day to day living.
Henry
2023 Bear Lake Attendee
★★★★★
The retreat has changed me in a lot of different ways. One of those things is trying to give up fear.Living in fear is an everyday struggle with me and being in a hyperstate of anxiety, always scared of everything. I had to step into the fears instead of run from it . The experience here is unlike anything you’ll ever experience. It’s true connection, it’s brotherhood, it’s men struggling to overcome all the faulty core beliefs that have kept us stuck our whole life.
