BE A PART OF THE SAVAGE RETREAT!
EXPERT SPEAKER, INTIMATE EXPERIENCE, ACTUAL CONNECTION, PURE SAVAGERY
NOTE: IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN THE VIBE, WE ARE KEEPING THESE RETREATS INCREDIBLY SMALL BY DESIGN, ONLY 10 SEATS AVAILABLE!
EXPERIENCE THE RETREAT!WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT AT THE SAVAGE RETREAT...
I LOVE CONFERENCES JUST AS MUCH AS ANYBODY. HOWEVER, I'VE BECOME FRUSTRATED AT THEIR LACK OF TRUE CONNECTION AND INTIMACY. THE CONFERENCES GET SO BIG THAT IT BECOMES INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO ACTUALLY CONNECT WITH THE GUESTS AND SPEAKERS ON A DEEPER LEVEL. Thus, I SET OUT TO SOLVE THAT PROBLEM.
THESE SAVAGE RETREATS WILL BE A BIT DIFFERENT.
WE'VE DECIDED TO CAP THEM AT A SMALL GROUP SO THAT THERE IS PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITY FOR TRUE CONNECTION AND ORGANIC CONVERSATION.
WE'VE BOOKED A PRIVATE LODGE IN WHICH WE'LL ALL BE STAYING TOGETHER, DINING TOGETHER, AND LEARNING TOGETHER.
WE'VE CREATED A RELAXED ITINERARY SO THAT TRUE CONNECTION HAPPENS BY DEFAULT.
THIS IS NOT JUST ANOTHER CONFERENCE OR SEMINAR WHERE INFO IS THROWN AT YOU WITH LITTLE TIME TO ASSIMILATE AND ASK QUESTIONS. THIS IS A FAMILY VIBE IN WHICH WE WILL ALL TRULY GET TO KNOW ONE ANOTHER AND BECOME FRIENDS FOR LIFE!

EXPERT SPEAKER GAME PLAN
Friday:
Steak dinner
Campfire - interactive discussion about our ancestral dietary past
Saturday:
Hike—conversations about the landscape (how our ancestors would have utilized the landscape) and resources (we could identify edible and utilitarian plants, rocks for tools, etc.). The goal: connect with the natural world in a deeper, more meaningful, and ancestrally appropriate way.
Shopping - guided shopping experience focusing on how the modern industrial food system is bastardizing our food. Discussion on how even the simplest of our foods (for example, cheese) is incredibly nourishing when made using traditional methods and a completely different food when produced using modern methods.
Whole Animal Butchery: Skills for the Home Kitchen
When we return to the cabin, we will break down half of a pig into its primal cuts. During this interactive process, we will discuss: home butchering,
sourcing high-quality animals,
how to talk to your butcher,
and the tools, equipment, safety, and practicality of home butchering
Then, we will learn how to transform these primals into finished, nutrient-dense, and delicious bacon, fresh sausage, pork rinds, ham, and a variety of fresh cuts.
Evening Campfire
Sunday:
Breakfast and farewells
EXTRAVAGANT PRIVATE LODGE ON BEAVER LAKE
We've booked an AWESOME AirBnB lodge for this particular retreat. The lodge is located in Rogers, AR, right on Beaver Lake. This home comes equipped with 11 beds, 5.5 baths, and a fully furnished kitchen. It offers countless festivities, such as a sauna and cold plunge. It's also equipped with a lakeside amphitheater, fire pits, and beautiful hiking trails.
Note: Some guests will be required to share rooms due to the sleeping arrangements. Every guest will obviously have their own bed...we gotta draw the line of this intimate experience somewhere lol.
TRAIN, EAT, AND CHILL WITH US!
You will have the opportunity to keep yourself busy with countless outdoor activities such as cold plunging in the lake, hiking the Ozark mountains, chilling by the fire, and getting lost in deep conversation.
REAL PEOPLE. REAL CONNECTION.
My main goal with this retreat is to create an environment for true connection to take place. With the laid-back itinerary, we'll have the opportunity to get lost in deep, meaningful conversation. We will all leave this experience with new lifelong friends and relationships.
