Men’s Retreat 2027

In 2027, the Men’s Retreat takes place in Santa Fe, New Mexico, at Rising Circle Ranch – a vast, secluded MEA retreat center set in the high desert of the American Southwest. The property sprawls across nearly 2,600 acres of open land, ancient petroglyphs, and endless sky that immediately slow your pace and sharpen your focus. Built to feel both rugged and expansive, with a look out over the breathtaking New Mexico landscape.

It is the kind of place that invites honesty.

Away from the pace of everyday life, you’ll feel the space to think clearly, speak directly, and reconnect to the deeper questions that often get buried beneath responsibility and routine.

Here you will experience alignment.

Over five immersive days, you’ll engage in dynamic workshops, embodied challenges, honest conversations, and structured reflection designed to push you past surface success and into substance.

You’ll examine how you show up as a partner, father, leader, friend, and man – and decide what stays, what goes, and what rises next.

This retreat balances intensity with restoration. You’ll be stretched. You’ll be supported. You’ll be reminded of who you are beneath expectation and responsibility.

What You’ll Experience and Leave With

  • Strategic self-inquiry that cuts through distraction and sharpens clarity about your values and direction
  • High-impact group dialogue rooted in trust and accountability, forming a brotherhood that endures beyond the retreat
  • Intentional solitude along desert trails and open ridge lines for recalibration, helping you return grounded, focused, and aligned
  • Deeper connection to your spouse or partner, your children, and the people who matter most
  • Expanded emotional range without sacrificing grounded masculinity
  • A structured, actionable framework for your next season
