Unrationed:return
An 8-week mastermind for men who are ready to come home different.
At the center of this journey is the adventure, Return in 24 a one-shot, 48-mile, 10,000-foot circumnavigation of Oregon’s Mt. Hood in under 24 hours.
But that’s just the fire in the middle.
This is bigger than a mountain. It’s about your life.
8 weeks of preparation, challenge, and integration
Guided by the 5 masculine initiation truths from Adam’s Return
For men ready to reclaim clarity, courage, and a new way home
“We don’t just go out. We don’t just come back. We go all the way around.”
What Makes This Different
This is not a wellness retreat. It’s not self-help with a view.
It’s a pressure cooker for clarity. A fire-tested return to the parts of you that are waiting to be reclaimed.
The Misogi: A one-shot, no-sleep, all-out effort around Mt. Hood—48 miles and 10,000 feet of gain in 24 hours.
The Work: Eight weeks guided by the five masculine initiation truths from Adam’s Return.
The Result: A return home, forged by discomfort and ready to lead differently at work, at home, and at play.
This is initiation—not information. You don’t just learn it. You live it.
Things our members have said about UNRATIONED Events.
Josh G
“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.”
Michael O'
“I did more than I thought possible. I had a clear goal, and I wasn’t alone. That changed everything.”
Bobby M.
“I can justify a lot of behaviors. Behaviors that are rooted in boy energy. But not around these guys. These dudes are trying to be the healthiest version of themselves.”

The Curriculum
Built around Richard Rohr’s Adam’s Return, each week hits one of the five masculine initiation truths:
Life is hard.
You are not that important.
Your life is not about you.
You are not in control.
You are going to die.
Each call blends teaching, discussion, reflection, and real-world application.
SOME OF THE VIEWS










Pat V.
“We all need companionship… and men are not immune to that need. In fact, too many of us isolate. Heads down beast mode until we realize we have no peers to talk to about shared values, fears, hopes, and tricks for getting through hard stuff. It does not have to be that way. We can (and ought to) lean on one another. There are terrific goups and outlets that provide that support. UNRATIONED has unlocked so much for me, and for that I am forever grateful.”
