Group in the wilderness

Programs

Private & Custom Quests

The full wilderness quest experience, reserved for your group.

The complete wilderness quest experience — reserved exclusively for your group, on your timeline.

Rather than joining an open cohort, you gather your own people and enter the wild together. Sam holds the full container for your group. The experience follows the same arc as the Seasonal Quest — preparation, threshold crossing, solo fast, and integration — shaped by your group's intentions.

This is for groups crossing the threshold together — sharing the descent, witnessing each other's encounters with the wild, and returning changed.

Who This Is For

Friends & Families

Gather the people closest to you for a shared threshold experience — a rite of passage, a collective renewal, or a deep dive into what matters most.

Community

Circles and communities of practice ready to deepen their collective life through wilderness, ritual, and the crossing of a threshold together.

Organizations, Teams & Companies

For groups seeking genuine transformation — not a retreat, but a true threshold experience that reshapes how a group understands itself and its purpose.

The Process

1

Reach Out

Contact Sam with a sense of your group and your intentions. An initial conversation will shape whether and how this quest wants to come into being.

2

Shape the Quest

Together we'll determine dates, group size, wilderness location, and the particular arc your group will follow.

3

Prepare Together

Your group will receive preparation guidelines and Sam will be available as the quest approaches. The village heart begins forming before you arrive.

4

Enter the Holy Wilds

Five days and four nights in the wilderness — preparation, ritual, movement, ceremony, dreamwork, time around the fire, and a solo fast to meet the wildness of your soul.

Pricing is based on group size. Reach out to begin the conversation — there is no obligation, only an invitation to explore what wants to come into being. Financial accessibility is available.

Enter the Holy Wilds

Tell Sam about your group and what calls you to this threshold. He will be in touch to explore what's possible.
