WHAT IS EMBODIED MASCULINE LEADERSHIP?

Embodied Masculine Leadership is the mastery of the 6 Core Tenets that support a man to stand in his innate power, lead with clarity and conviction, and enable others to live into their potential. With the right mindset, heart-set, skillset, guidance and community, incredible growth is possible at all levels of leadership and influence.

Program Structure

Your leadership coaches Jamin and Aaron will guide you through a transformative curriculum with highly tailored, high-touch coaching. The leadership coaching is the core of the program and is designed to empower you to cultivate mastery in the 6 Core Tenets of Embodied Masculine Leadership. With the support of Jamin and Aaron, you will be guided to stand in your innate power, lead with more clarity and conviction, and empower those you love to level up as well. The leadership coaching is facilitated via group and individual video calls.

Kickstart Retreat in Guatemala

Early in the program, there is a 4-day Kickstart Retreat in Guatemala where you will climb Mount Acatenango and Mount Fuego, one of the world’s most active volcanoes. You will be introduced to the foundational distinctions of the six Core Tenets of Embodied Masculine Leadership. As part of this Retreat, you will also get connected to all of your teammates, meet our Aconcagua guides to begin preparing for our time in Argentina, and identify the key areas you need to work on in your physical fitness to be ready to ascend the mountain.
The Kickstart Retreat is intended to be a powerful entry and adventure into the program, and will have you set up feeling confident, connected, and prepared to succeed.

Your Fitness Coaching

Your Fitness Coach Martin Zhor will provide you with tailored training guidance to create optimal levels of performance and vitality and set you up for success on Aconcagua. Martin not only prepares you to successfully climb Aconcagua, the coaching also equips you with the knowledge, mindset and habits that will serve you well beyond the program.

You will become part of a team of leaders committed to living their potential and making a difference in the world. Get inspired and develop life-long friendships as you journey with an extraordinary community of men. We accept a maximum of 10 Members for SUMMIT, which ensures you get high levels of support and foster strong connections between all participants.

Your Graduation Retreat in Argentina

Climbing Aconcagua, the highest peak in all of South America standing at 22,830ft, is no small achievement. Aconcagua is one of the Seven Summits. She is nature; beautiful, powerful and dynamic. A potent teacher, who will help you cultivate greater presence, deepen your inner resolve, and expand your humility. Graduating SUMMIT by climbing Aconcagua is about deepening your connection to self and something greater. The climb serves as a vehicle to inquire into the great mystery of life, test what you’re capable of, and evolve with new wisdom and ways of being.

Your Post Program Integration

After SUMMIT officially completes, Jamin and Aaron will support you to integrate your transformation through complimentary Integration Coaching Sessions for an additional two months to ensure you take everything you have learned throughout the program into your future.

    Aconcagua is part of the Andes mountain range, and sits mid-way on the boarder of Argentina and Chile

    Your SUMMIT Graduation Retreat will begin in Mendoza, Argentina. Your program will begin here for 3 days until heading to the base of Aconcagua with your teammates, coaches and mountain guides

    Guatemala and Argentina are considered safe countries, especially in the main tourist areas which include Antigua and Mount Acatenango, and Mendoza and Aconcagua, respectively.

    It is recommended that you have experienced executive coaching, life coaching, and / or therapy in the past. This program requires that men show-up and are willing to look at their blind spots and choose to confront the parts of themselves that may feel scary and uncomfortable to be with. This is important so that we can all show-up in the program and be ready to open to new possibilities and let go of old unhelpful ways of being.

    In Mendoza we will have luxurious accommodation at a boutique hotel. When we’re on the mountain, the sleeping arrangement is in tents.

    We will stay in beautiful accommodation in Antigua, which is known as one of the most picturesque villages in the world, and we will stay in glamping tents when we summit Mt Acatenango.

    If you have a male friend who you believe would be a good match for the SUMMIT, you can refer them to inquire and go through their own decision making process after having an Introduction Call with Jamin or Aaron.

    You are welcome to bring your spouse and kids to have an adventure before or after the retreat in Guatemala or Argentina, but not during the retreats. The program is men’s only, and the accommodation will only be organized for participants of the program.

    If you cannot be fully present in Chile for the Graduation Retreat in February 2025, you are unfortunately not able to participate in this edition of SUMMIT. We recommend you sign up for our newsletter to find out about our upcoming programs.
