About this trip

EVRYMAN Direct Source Retreat: Texas Hill Country Edition
Date: February 7–9, 2025


This February, we challenge you to show up in a way that changes everything.

For the first time, EVRYMAN is bringing our new Direct Source Retreat (formerly known as MELT) to the Texas Hill Country—a place as raw and untamed as the work you’re about to do. This isn’t a weekend to escape the grind; it’s a weekend to face yourself, uncover your truth, and take a bold step toward becoming the man you know you’re capable of being.

Experience Direct Source

For men who have opened their inner source of power through our Fundamentals program and the Open Source retreat, Direct Source is the next step on the path toward self-mastery.

Set on 200+ acres of regenerative farmland, this advanced retreat deepens your practice through intensive somatic work, skilled emotional processing, and brotherhood building. You'll move beyond initial awareness into true command of your emotional landscape, learning to intentionally direct your inner wisdom and power.


Working alongside other committed men in this stunning natural setting, you'll develop advanced tools for emotional mastery while strengthening your ability to navigate life's challenges with purpose and clarity. This is not just another retreat—it's a focused crucible for transforming your initial insights into embodied wisdom, supported by men who share your commitment to growth.

What to Expect

Growth isn’t easy—but it’s worth it.

Over three days, you’ll join 50 men and 5 seasoned leaders for a transformational journey designed to push you, ground you, and connect you to what matters most.

Here’s the challenge:

  • Drop the armor. Strip away the stories and masks that keep you stuck.
  • Dig deep. Face the hard truths you’ve been avoiding and uncover what’s holding you back.
  • Build resilience. Learn practical tools to strengthen your emotional, physical, and mental well-being.
  • Forge real bonds. Connect with men who will support you—not by pretending to have it all figured out, but by being as real as you are.

By Sunday, you’ll leave not just lighter, but stronger—with a sense of clarity, purpose, and a new band of brothers standing by your side.

Why It’s Hard

Let’s be clear: this is not a retreat for the faint of heart. It’s for men ready to confront their fears, sit with their discomfort, and take responsibility for their lives.

It’s going to challenge you. You’ll step into vulnerability and trust—maybe for the first time in years. You’ll leave the safety of small talk and surface-level connections for something deeper, more honest, and transformative.

Why It’s Worth It

Real transformation doesn’t happen in comfort zones. It happens in moments of courage—when you face your edges and dare to push beyond them.

Nature will hold us as we do this work. The Texas Hill Country—with its expansive skies, rugged terrain, and grounding stillness—is the perfect place to reconnect with your raw, authentic self. There, you’ll breathe deeply, move freely, and find clarity in the quiet power of the outdoors.

What We Stand For

At EVRYMAN, we believe every man deserves a life filled with meaning, connection, and joy. That’s why Direct Source is about more than just a weekend—it’s a call to reclaim the best parts of yourself.

Here’s our promise to you:

  • You’ll experience something life-changing.
  • You’ll leave with practical tools to show up more fully in your life.
  • You’ll connect deeply—with yourself and a community of men who have your back.

This is not just a retreat. This is a chance to rewrite your story, reconnect with your purpose, and rediscover what it means to live a life of meaning.

If you’re ready to step into the man you know you can be, we’ll see you in Texas.

Spaces are limited. Secure your spot now for the first-ever Direct Source Retreat in the Texas Hill Country.

The trip was excellent; the hosts for the event were knowledgeable and provided worthwhile instruction, the facilities were accommodating, and the food was fantastic.

The EVRYMAN Open Source retreat was incredible. The event blew away my expectations and I walked away with so much more than I anticipated. The lodge facility was great and created the perfect backdrop for the weekend.

This was my third EVRYMAN retreat and, somehow, it keeps getting better. The team is beyond caring and strong; the 100 participants were smart, kind and open in a way the average man isn't these days... I cannot recommend EVRYMAN more. If there's a shred of curiosity in you, indulge in it, with them. Yes, they're that good (and I'm a lot better for it myself).
By David S for EVRYMAN Open Source - 8 Year Anniversary on Nov 12, 2024
This experience was a fantastic opportunity for men of all ages, backgrounds, and beliefs to come together and connect. The level of of empathy, compassion, and holding space for our fellow men was truly humbling. The personal growth from this event has been exponential. I left feeling worn out emotionally, mentally, and physically. For any man that feels lost, without purpose or direction, out of touch with their family, friends, or feelings, this experience is an absolute must do.
