Blurred until they say OK
Events / Mont-Tremblant, Quebec
Mont-Tremblant. The men's retreat.
A long weekend in the Laurentians: mountain runs, working sessions in a cabin under the ski hill, and a room of men who stop performing and start telling the truth.
Invite-only. Usually 8 to 12 men.
Why Mont-Tremblant
Two hours north of Montreal, in the Laurentian mountains. The village goes quiet in the off-season — which is exactly when the retreat runs.
No crowds, no noise: a cabin under the mountain, a small group, and three days where the schedule respects the work.

The rhythm of a day
The setting does half the work. The rest is the day's shape.
Movement
Trail runs, hikes or a hard workout, before your head can talk you out of it.
Working sessions
Small group, structured. We work on what you came to work on.
Time alone
Walk, read, write or nap. The space your week never gives you.
The dinner
One long table, real food, no phones. One rule: be honest or be quiet.

Small groups. Honest men.
- Usually 8 to 12 men, most between 30 and 55.
- Settled in their work, with families or building toward one.
- Clients, friends of clients or referrals. Not a public sign-up.
- Coaches, founders, drivers, creators, doctors and contractors have all come.
Ask about the next retreat
Tell me a little about you. I'll tell you when the next one is, who's coming, and whether it's a fit.
No mailing list. This is not a sign-up.
Other gatherings: Algonquin Park 2025, Tampa 2024 and the Dinners. Want your own? I run them for groups too.
