You followed the path. You built what you were supposed to build. And now you’re standing inside a life that looks right — and wondering why it doesn’t feel like enough.

— This is the moment this retreat was made for.

About the Experience

You’ve Earned a Life That Looks Right.
Now Come Find One That Feels Right.

Base Camp is not a corporate offsite. It’s not a weekend of strategies and speakers. It is three days in the wilderness, unplugged from everything that keeps you performing and reconnected to everything that actually matters.

For three days in the British Columbia wilderness, you will step away from screens, schedules, and the relentless pace of modern life — and step into something most men haven’t allowed themselves in years: stillness, honest reflection, and real brotherhood.

You’ll arrive as the man you’ve been: capable, driven, carrying it all. Still searching for the next strategy. Still holding back parts of yourself. Still telling yourself you have balance while quietly fearing what happens if you slow down.

You’ll leave as something different. Grounded. Calm. Clear on what is actually important to you outside of your business. Knowing how to hold still in the face of uncertainty. Trusting yourself fully. And knowing, maybe for the first time in a long time, that you are not carrying any of this alone.

  • Reset your nervous system and step off autopilot for good
  • Gain uncommon clarity on what actually matters — outside of your business
  • Learn to hold still in uncertainty and trust yourself completely
  • Connect with a brotherhood of men who see you, challenge you, and refuse to let you settle
  • Return home present the kind your family will feel the moment you walk through the door

The Shift

This Is What Actually Changes.

Not a mindset. Not a method. A man.

When You Arrive

The man who has built everything and is still performing.

  • You know how to build and lead a successful business and you’re still performing in areas of your life that are supposed to feel personal
  • You’re holding back your true thoughts and feelings in the places that matter most
  • You’re carrying it all by yourself, convinced you can figure it out
  • You’re still looking for the next strategy, the next level, the next thing that will finally make it feel like enough
  • You tell yourself you have balance but you can’t fully pause without feeling like you’re falling behind

When You Leave

The man who knows himself and trusts himself completely.

  • You are grounded and calm in a way that doesn’t require external conditions to maintain
  • You have clarity on what is important to you outside of your business and you trust that clarity
  • You know how to hold still in the face of uncertainty and trust yourself completely
  • You’ve slowed down enough to actually listen — to yourself and to the people around you
  • You carry tools within you for regulating your nervous system … no app required
  • You are confident and you know you are supported
  • You leave as your true self without the weight of the world’s expectations on your back

What You’re Really Craving

It’s not rest. It’s not even brotherhood. It’s this:
Connection.

You want to know you’re not alone in this. That the questions you carry about meaning, about what’s next, about whether you’re actually living or just executing are not yours to carry in silence.

You want to get to know yourself better. Not the version of you that shows up in meetings and weekend plans but the deeper man underneath all of it. The one who knows there’s more. The one who’s been waiting for permission to go find it.

That’s what this retreat is built for. Connection. Truth. The discovery of who you actually are when the world stops telling you who to be.

Who This Is For

You followed the path.
You delivered.
And now something
deeper is calling.

You’re a high-achieving man … a father, a leader, a provider. You did what you were supposed to do and you did it well. The business is successful. The family looks right from the outside. But you’re in a season of life where that’s no longer enough. You know you were meant for more depth than this — you’re just not yet clear on what that ‘more’ looks like.

This retreat is for the man who is done following a path someone else laid out 
and is finally ready to find his own.

This Retreat Is For You If:

  • You’re a high-achieving father, or a man stepping toward fatherhood, who wants to lead in every area of his life … not just business
  • You’ve been successful by every external measure … and you know that’s not enough anymore
  • You feel a quiet pull toward something more meaningful but can’t name what it is yet
  • You’re done carrying everything alone and ready to finally reach out and know you’re not the only one
  • You want to be part of something larger than yourself … a real brotherhood, not just a network
  • You’re ready to invest in becoming the man your family gets to experience … not just the man who provides for them

This Is Not For You If:

  • You’re looking for a weekend of networking and business strategy
  • You’re not willing to unplug for 3 days
  • You want someone to tell you everything is fine exactly as it is
  • You’re not ready to be honest with yourself — and other men … about where you really are

Your Base Camp. Chosen With Purpose.

This is where men come to pause. Refuel. Reflect. And charge up for what is next. Before the next mission, the next season, the next version of yourself … you need a place where your soul can connect to what’s true. This is that place.

The wilderness doesn’t care about your title or your revenue. It holds you exactly as you are. And in that, something shifts.

Your Facilitator
Founder – TCP

Business Leader
Husband & Father of 3
Former Elite Athlete
Mike Prince
Founder, The Conscious Man Project

Mike Prince doesn’t coach men through theories. He coaches them through the lived experience of having to rebuild himself from the ground up … and choosing to do it consciously.

After years of operating at full speed … chasing performance, adventure, and external validation … Mike arrived at a question most men feel but few admit: “Is this actually the life I want, or just the one I built?”

A severe battle with Lyme disease stripped him of his physical strength, his identity, and everything he thought it meant to be strong. What followed wasn’t a quick recovery. It was a complete recalibration … one that led him deep into breathwork, nervous system regulation, meditation, and intentional living. Not as trends. As tools for survival, and then for leading.

Today, as a husband and father of three boys, Mike integrates his background in business leadership with those hard-won practices … guiding men through their own recalibration in 1:1 coaching, community, and immersive retreats like this one.

“A man can win in business and still feel like he’s losing where it counts. The Conscious Man Project exists to raise the standard of what it means to lead as a man — where strength includes emotional depth, and leadership begins at home.”

Also facilitating: Kevin McNee (evening ceremonies + group process) and Chef Taylor Coulthard (whole food, intentional nourishment).

Taylor Coulthard

He has led kitchens in Seattle and Vancouver and worked with top establishments including Le Crocodile, Cioppino’s, Bauhaus, etc.. His deep passion, connection & creativity for food is tasted in every dish. Taylor has been a staple at all of our retreats as he puts as much work into his food as he does himself.

What Men Are Saying
The work speaks for itself.

“It gave me an opportunity to find some individuals who are going through similar things in life and are willing to be open about how we talk about it, how we deal with it and even tools and methods we can put in our backpack to carry on and move forward with a higher sense of purpose and how to deal and manage those feelings. It was exactly what I needed and I’m very thankful for the experience.”

Craig Garden

Wellness Company Owner — Vancouver, BC

“I was really missing connection with other men. I grew up playing sports & have always thrown myself into different immersions. I love the energy of hanging out with other like-minded guys where I can learn something new about myself and grow. To all those guys out there that have second guessed coming into a space like this, I say do like me and say “hell yes”. It’s an amazing opportunity and everyone fits.”

Brett Barker

Fitness Company Owner – Kelowna, BC

“Hearing everyone’s stories and what they’ve gone through in life, it really makes you want to open up as well. Which is a huge thing. I dug deep.

Things that I don’t really think about and push down.

The connection that you make with everyone by having deep, meaningful conversations … it’s just phenomenal.”

Castille Salvador

Construction Biz Owner – Victoria, BC

Why This Works When Other Things Haven’t

You don’t have an
information problem.

You’ve read the books. You know about breathwork. You’ve downloaded the meditation app. You’ve had the intention to “be more present” for years. And still … the gap between the man you are and the man you want to be remains.

That’s because this isn’t a knowledge problem. It’s an environment problem.

What shifts men isn’t more content … it’s being in the right container, with the right guide, surrounded by men who refuse to let you stay comfortable in your patterns. That is exactly what this retreat creates. Three days away from everything that keeps you stuck. Three days inside the conditions where real change actually happens.

01

Environment

Wilderness strips away distraction. You can’t check your phone. You can’t escape into productivity. You have to be here.
02

Brotherhood

Ten men, all telling the truth. That alone is something most men haven’t had since they were boys … and they didn’t know they needed it until they had it again.

03

Embodiment

You won’t just hear ideas. You’ll move through them … in your body, your nervous system, your relationships. What you embody, you don’t forget.

FAQ

Common Questions,
Straight Answers.

Do I need prior experience with retreats, breathwork, or personal development?
No. What you need is a willingness to show up honestly and engage with the experience. Mike designs the retreat for men who are new to this kind of work as much as those who’ve done it before. The only prerequisite is that you’re done pretending everything is fine.
What's included in the $1,597 investment?

All accommodation (private or shared cabin), all meals prepared by Chef Taylor Coulthard, all facilitated sessions (breathwork, workshops, ceremonies), access to cold plunge, sauna, and hot tub, a pre-retreat group call with Mike, and post-retreat integration resources + 30 Day Reset Protocol. The only thing not included is travel to the venue.  There will be many people car pooling from Kelowna.

Will I actually have to hand over my phone?

Yes. Phones are collected on arrival. This isn’t punitive … it’s the whole point. You cannot do this work and be half-present. Most men report this as both the hardest and most valuable part of the experience. Mike will have a phone number that can be handed out to family members in case of emergency.

How physically demanding is the retreat?

Moderate. There is optional hiking, cold plunge exposure, and movement practices. Everything is designed to challenge you in healthy ways … not push you past your physical limits. If you have specific health considerations, please reach out prior to registering.

Is this confidential? What's shared at the retreat stays there?

Yes. On Day 1, the group establishes shared agreements … one of which is complete confidentiality. What is shared in circle, stays in circle. This is foundational to the depth of work that’s possible. There will be a videographer on site to capture all important moments but all footage is owned by The Conscious Man Project and any future marketing material will always be approved by the Men in the video.

What is the cancellation policy?

Cancellations made more than 30 days before the retreat date receive a full credit toward a future retreat. Within 30 days, the investment is non-refundable but transferable to another man (To be approved by Mike to protect the integrity of the event) All decisions are handled with respect and a conversation. Reach out directly if your circumstances change.

What should I pack or prepare?

A full packing list and preparation guide will be sent well ina advance of the event date. In general: outdoor clothing, layers for variable BC weather, a journal, and an open mind. We handle the rest.

My partner is skeptical. How do I explain what this is?

Honestly … that’s the right instinct. Tell her you’re investing three days to become a better version of the man she married. The men who come to this retreat don’t just change how they feel. They come home differently. That difference is felt immediately by the people who love them. If they would like to get on a call. Mike is more than willing to personally get on a call. 

⬤ Limited to 10 Men — Only a Few Spots Remain

You felt something when you
found this page.
That feeling is the answer.

When men say yes to this retreat, they describe an immediate shift … an excitement, like new possibilities have opened. A quiet pride in choosing themselves for once.

That shift is available to you right now. Not after the next quarter. Not when things settle down. Now. Three days. Ten men. One decision that changes how you show up for everything that follows.
