A 12‑month commitment for men who carry responsibility at work, at home, and in their own bodies.

The Unrationed Year is a year-long commitment for men who are looking to level up at work, in their relationships, and with their physical fitness alongside a community of men aimed in the same direction.

STOP DRIFTING.
START PURSUING.

Why We Exist


We exist to help men pursue extraordinary at work, at home and at play, together.

Most men don't need more knowledge. They need to stop drifting.

Drifting from their families. Drifting from their bodies. Drifting from their own standards.

The world does not need more productivity hacks. It needs more men who know who they are and show up for it.

We built Unrationed as a place where high‑responsibility men can:

  • Be truly known

  • Cross real thresholds

  • Turn pressure into strength instead of stress

If you carry weight in your business and at home, you already feel the cost of drift. The Unrationed community exists to help you navigate life with confidence.

Who this is For


Unrationed is for men who:

  • Are roughly 30–50 years old, usually married or in a committed relationship, often with kids

  • Lead at work: founders, executives, managers, senior operators, key players

  • Live in a stable financial reality (you can invest without blowing up your life)

  • Are "successful on paper" but feel softer, more reactive, or more numb than they want to be

  • Are hungry for real challenge – physical and emotional – not just more content

Who this is not for:

Men in acute crisis they haven't stabilized yet

Men looking for a place to vent and be rescued

Men unwilling to train, prepare, and show up for uncomfortable work and real physical events

Men who want politics or dogma to be the point

Men who buy memberships but don't show up


We are not for all men. We are for men who carry responsibility and want to get better.

OUR VALUES

  • We invest in the success of our brothers. This means actively supporting and engaging with one another's progress and well-being. When one thrives, we all do.

  • We find and keep the middle ground rather than being pulled to extremes. It's about openness, being present, and exploring ideas without rigidly adhering to any one viewpoint. We can learn from all.

  • We believe that work is love made visible. That includes work that demands things from our body to provide for our families. We live in a post-industrial world, but we’re built for hard work.

  • Growth happens beyond the thresholds of our comfort zones. We embrace challenges and choose to explore uncharted territory. When we return home, it’s with maps that have gotten bigger.

  • We engage in meaningful and substantive conversations that delve into deeper topics rather than surface-level small talk.

The UNRATIONED Year

With your 12- month commitment, you receive:

  • ONE EVENT CREDIT

    Choose one of four anchor trips: Georgia, Rim to Rim to Rim (Grand Canyon), Mt Hood circumnavigation, or Canada backcountry.

    You pay travel. We cover the rest.  We build the route, safety, and container. These are not vacations. They are modern rites of passage.

  • WEEKLY COMMUNITY

    A 60‑minute business-hours call every week, plus optional 30‑minute Q&A. Each month cycles through four themes:

    - Work and leadership
    - Home and relationships
    - Body and capacity
    - Integration and planning

  • YOUR CREW

    A small group of 3–5 men for the entire year. You meet briefly each week to:

    - Check in honestly
    - Share one real win and one real challenge
    - Commit to concrete actions

    No hiding.
    No performance.
    Just real accountability.

WHAT ACTUALLY CHANGES

WORK

Clearer decisions under pressure.
More honest conversations with your team.
Better boundaries between work and home.
Higher standards for yourself and your people.

HOME

Less reactivity, more presence.
Hard conversations you’ve avoided having.
Stronger relationships.
Kids who see their dad do hard things.

BODY

Increased capacity and resilience.
Lower reliance on numbing and distraction.
Proof that you can suffer well.

From The Field

"I've never been around men like this. Guys doing meaningful work, trying to live different. I came in feeling isolated. I left feeling connected and motivated."

"I did more than I thought possible. I had a clear goal, and I wasn't alone. That changed everything."

— Michael O

"I knew some things changed for the better when my wife asked me when the next Unrationed event was going to be."

"To be wild is not to be crazy or psychotic.

True wildness is a love of nature, a delight in silence, a voice free to say spontaneous things, and an exuberant curiosity in the face of the unknown."
