Welcome to The Lodge

You are Remarkable and Numb

You did what was asked.
You kept your promises.
You toed the line.
You built a name, a house, a future.

You provided.
You delivered.
You made yourself useful.

And now that it’s finally quiet,
you don’t know who the hell you are anymore.

There’s a job.
A partner, maybe.
A family that’s well cared for, but doesn’t really know you.
A relationship that’s drifting or already gone.

You sit at the table and feel alone.
You go through the motions, but you don’t feel a thing.
You win, but it doesn’t feed you.


You show up but it’s like someone else is wearing your skin.

There’s a voice in you; low, relentless

that asks:
If I stop working what would be left?

That voice isn’t weakness.
It’s the only part of you that hasn’t lied.

And it’s tired.

This isn't Therapy

This isn't a Program

You’re not here to perform.

You’re not here to be fixed.

You’re not here to prove you’re still a good man.

 

The Lodge is not soft.

It’s not polished. It’s not curated.

It’s a place to unravel it all - privately.

 

This is a reckoning.

With your silence.

With your hardness.

With the cost of being who they needed instead of who you were.

 

There is quiet here.

Not the meditative kind.

The kind that corners you.

The kind that tastes like rust in your mouth.

The kind that shows you what you haven’t touched in years. And in that quiet, something feral starts to move.

Who Responds

I’ve spent more than twenty years sitting beside what most people avoid. Grief. Regret.

 

The silence that comes when a man has everything and still feels nothing.​

 

I’ve worked in hospice.

I’ve worked with leaders.

I’ve worked with men who could sell the world

but couldn’t tell you what they wanted.​

 

This isn’t coaching.

It’s a rite of passage disguised as a conversation.

The kind most men never get.

Not because they don’t need it

but because they’ve spent a lifetime proving they don’t.​

 

This is ceremony without incense.

This is ritual without an audience.

This is what happens when silence becomes sacred.​

 

No one claps.

Nothing gets posted.​

You just walk back into your life

as someone who didn’t run.​

 

If that stirs something in you—even if you don’t understand it—that’s enough.

Sarah has a way of cutting through the bullshit. It's just real, direct and exactly what I needed. 

Seasonal Journey Participant

So much of what we work towards takes small pieces of us along with it. Wins can feel empty and success feels almost ridiculous. Working with Sarah has been so easy and results were immediate.

Lodge Retreat Participant

All I can say is...go.  This is not like anything else I have ever experienced.  The work hard as f*@K but so very important for you, your family and your team. One conversation even, will change you.
