Borderlands | Retreats for men navigating a midlife crisis

Borderlands is the culmination of lived experience combined with primary and secondary research. If you have an inclination for anthropology (like us!), are one of the rare people who still like to read and/or just want more information before deciding if this community is for you, this is the place.​

There is a hunger for the mind, body and the soul. But at Borderlands, we did all these practices, the hiking, the music, the somatics, the martial arts, in which the hunger of all were woven together

I had time on my hands, given the career transition phase, and Borderlands seemed to offer something completely different from what is out there.

There was an element of surprise and almost a little bit of fear at the same time—will anything come out of this? It far exceeded anything that I could expect. Every experience has left me with so much to think about.

I wanted something drastic to mark this turning point in my life, and I felt Borderlands would give me exactly that kickstart into a new life. The group who attended this retreat was amazing. I think I’ve made friends for life.
