We set them up with three months of individual and group coaching, physical training to be prepared for their trip, and a guide for their travels. During their one week adventure travel experience, they are dropped in an undisclosed location somewhere on Earth and go through a set of challenges created for them to have a breakthrough in an area of their life that will make a difference for the goals they set. All of this happens so when they get back, they are ready to jump into action in every part of their life and are moving forward towards living the life of their dreams.
  • Each of our participants promises to come out of the experience:
  • 1. Being POWERFUL in every aspect of their life.
