Voices from the brotherhood.

“This event was life changing for me. I want each of you to know that. LIFE CHANGING!”

“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. :)”

“Rising Son changed my life”

“I got the courage to share my deepest regrets/secrets. So helpful!”

“This is one of the most impactful and amazing experiences of my life!”

“I LOVED hearing about others stories and it even prompted me to want to share my own. That was may favorite part of the experience.”

“Rising son is the greatest shame busting tool out there!”

“I love you all. Thank you for changing my life.”

“The activities we amazing! They stretched me and built a group of men that I would be willing to go to battle with!”

“It was uplifting and motivating!”

“Life changing.”

“It was a week of epic masculinity. Brutal and breathtaking.”

“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.”

“I love you guys and love what you are bringing to the world.”

“I really liked how well organized it was, the location and the program.”

“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!”

“$5-7k is easily what I would expect for something like this. I got great bang for the buck.”

“It allowed me to dig into what is truly meaningful to me in my life.”

“I love all of you guys so much. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”

“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.”

“It was well organized and the information presented was thought out and meaningful. It was an emotional event and felt great to be there.”

“Wish it could have been longer, but had a really great experience.”

“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 ;)”

“It was worth every penny.”

“You guy are just so awesome! I love the Patrick brothers!”

“The information presented and the presentations of it were great. The food was delicious and there was plenty of it.”

“I'd love to attend more of these in the future, so please keep doing them. This is more than just a ton of fun. These retreats are life changing, life shaping, and life giving to a healing soul. Thank you! A thousand thank yous!”

“Great opportunities for connection and vulnerability.”

“I loved everything about it. The content, the sequence, the setting, the accommodations, the food, the facilitators, all of it.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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.”

“It was really challenging. In a beautiful way. I feel like it pushed us to a point we had to break.”

“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.”

“I've been around the block with therapy for years. This single weekend was more valuable than all the therapy I've done in the past.”

“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.”
