Truth is, most men are masters of the mask: holding it together for everyone else, protecting, providing, and pushing through no matter the cost. The problem? The mask — and the protector role behind it — keeps you safe, but it also keeps you stuck.
At this retreat, we’ll teach you how to take the mask off. You’ll get the tools, the guidance, and the space to step into your authentic self — without shame, without judgment, and definitely without any BS.
Through small-group coaching workshops, intentional reflection, guided meditation, and adventures in nature (hiking in the Canyonlands, visiting Arches National Park, and whitewater rafting), you’ll gain clarity, release old patterns, and create lasting change in how you show up in your life.
This retreat is for men who are ready to grow beyond their protector role to their full, true selves.
Moab, Utah
Men’s Retreat
Hosted by Awae Retreats with Men’s Mental Health Expert Dr. Audra Horney (Licensed Psychologist & Men’s Mental Health Coach)
This retreat isn’t a quick fix or an empty, motivational weekend. This retreat is not for everyone, and that’s intentional.
This retreat is for men who are ready to show up fully, challenge themselves, and walk away with clarity and strategies they can apply immediately in their daily lives.
This retreat is for men who: Feel stuck repeating the same unhealthy patterns in your work, relationships, or inner life — and you want the tools to change them.... Hide stress, anger, or pain behind “being fine,” but you want to learn healthier ways to deal with your emotions.... Are seeking more fulfillment in life, and are curious about a more hands-on, immersive experience.... Value straightforward and practical strategies, not surface-level advice, that will help you uncover insights and answers that have been hidden but within you all along.... Want to leave with tools you can actually use.
Please note, current or former client’s of Dr. Audra Horney are advised to speak with her directly if interested. Due to conflicts of interest around dual roles per the licensing board of psychologists, you are unfortunately not eligible for this retreat but Dr. Audra is happy to connect you with alternative programs.
Pre-retreat assessment and a live group call with your retreat leaders to set intentions, connect with your cohort, and arrive ready to do the work.
Identify the masks you’ve been wearing, explore what they’ve been protecting, and practice showing up as your real self — with honesty, openness, and confidence.
Understand the protective parts of you that may be getting in your way, and learn how to lead from Self.
A brotherhood of men who are in it with you and get it. No posturing, no competition — just honesty and support.
Blocks of time reserved to slow down, quiet the noise, and reconnect with yourself.
