👋🏾 HEY, I'M MIKE.


I’m a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Certified Professional Co-Active Coach, and men's work facilitator. Over the years, I’ve helped men just like you develop self-regulation tools, reconnect with their bodies, build healthier relationships, and rediscover a sense of vitality.


I know there’s a lot of pressure to perform, provide, and protect. On top of that, we’re expected to be emotionally available and present. It’s a lot. And without the right tools and support, you can end up feeling stuck, alone, and not enough.


Maybe that resonates with you. If so, know this: it doesn’t have to stay that way.


Men who attend the SHIFT Men’s Retreat leave with a renewed sense of self. Imagine stepping out of heavy armor you’ve worn for years, finally able to move with ease. It’s like riding a perfect wave after years of wiping out—when everything finally clicks, and you’re carried forward effortlessly. 


This isn’t just a shift in your mind; it’s a shift you’ll feel deep in your body—like coming home after being lost for too long.

The SHIFT You’ll Experience

This isn’t your typical men’s wellness retreat. 


With nearly two decades of experience in men’s personal growth, I’ve created an immersive, trauma-healing retreat for men ready to dive deep. This retreat is for men serious about emotional growth, resilience, and healing through somatic practices, connection, and play.


If that sounds like you, let’s continue.

🙇🏾‍♂️ 5 Truths SHIFT Participants Realize:


1. “I’ve hit a wall in my personal growth.”

It’s normal to feel stuck, but with somatic tools designed for men, you’ll break through that block and start moving forward again.


2. “I’ve tried everything, but I don’t feel different.”

SHIFT offers somatic coaching, movement, and a "bottom-up" approach that goes deeper than traditional approaches, creating lasting change. 


3. “I want more than status—I want connection.”

True fulfillment comes from meaningful connections. At SHIFT, we use somatic practices and emotional intelligence coaching to foster these deep connections.


4. “I have financial success, but something still feels empty.”

Checking the boxes doesn’t always fill the void. Together, we’ll identify what’s missing and help you reconnect to a sense of purpose.


5. “I need a weekend with the guys, but without distractions.”

SHIFT offers a reset—no drugs, alcohol, or distractions—just meaningful growth, movement, and connection.

💪🏾 The SHIFT Journey: From Surviving to Thriving


SHIFT Men’s Retreat is held in the beautiful El Pescadero, Baja California Sur, Mexico Topia Boutique Retreat Center. This isn’t just another guys’ weekend. It’s an immersive, transformative experience designed to help you heal trauma, reset your nervous system, and reignite your vitality. 


With practices like breathwork, somatic movement, and men's circles, you'll leave equipped to navigate life with clarity and resilience.


"The focus on joy, fun and play during the retreat allowed me to remember what it's like to have fun without the everyday worries of life." -- Matt G., New York, 


""The vulnerability, joy, love, and play at SHIFT were infectious, creating an atmosphere that encouraged genuine connection and self-exploration." -- Tim G., Austin

My Story


"Every buried seed must succumb to darkness and pressure before it can break through into the light."


There were times in my childhood when I felt alone, fragile, and numb. Trauma left me reactive and emotionally isolated. But survival wasn’t enough. In my 20s, I realized I didn’t just want to survive—I wanted to thrive.


I dove into somatic healing, attended retreats, worked with therapists, and learned from trauma experts. The journey wasn’t linear. I had to embrace discomfort and face my shadows. But because I invested in myself, I now have a healthy marriage, deep friendships, and a fulfilling career.


SHIFT is a culmination of everything I’ve learned. It’s the retreat I wish I had when I was in your shoes—ready for transformation but unsure where to turn.  


If you’re curious, but still on the fence, schedule a free Discovery Call with me. Let’s explore whether this retreat is right for you.

The RESET retreat was the first one I've ever attended, so I honestly didn't know what to expect. After a few days, though, I had built such a bond with these guys that I didn't want to leave. Mike is a wonderful coach and truly skilled at his craft; every new discovery was framed gently and insightfully to teach us. I truly appreciated my time there and absolutely will recommend it to my friends. If you're on the fence about whether you should do this, schedule a call with Mike and let him tell you all about it. I did, and I'm definitely better for it.

Had a great time! There was a lot of inner work, in company of a great coach and wonderful people. One of the better experiences I’ve had.

This was my second year attending Mike Sagun's Reset Men's Retreat and it provided it me exactly what the name says, a perfect reset. The first year was an eye opening experience and the second gave me the opportunity to go even deeper into the work. Mike provides such an amazing holistic approach incorporating inner examination, mindfulness, emotional intelligence, body movement, exploring play as an adult, communication, brotherhood and connection, rest and relaxation and even diet with amazing whole food meals being provided throughout the weekend. Everything is done with such beautiful intention. If you are at all on the fence about attending, I strongly recommend just jumping in and experience the shifts that will occur.

I recently had the incredible opportunity to attend the RESET retreat for the second time in San Miguel De Allende, Mexico, facilitated by the amazing Mike Sagun. This experience was nothing short of transformative. From the moment I arrived at the stunning Casa Lenno, I felt a sense of peace and anticipation. The retreat center provided the perfect backdrop for introspection and healing. You have to be there to feel it. The modern rustic aesthetic combined with the serene environment made it an ideal place to reset and recharge. Mike Sagun is a master of his craft. His presence, intuition, and warmth create an immediate sense of safety and well-being. Throughout the retreat, Mike guided us through various activities designed to help us reconnect with our bodies and emotions. The combination of movement practices (I won’t disclose what type of movement!), breathwork, and men’s circles was incredibly powerful. Each session was thoughtfully crafted to help us develop emotional skills, regulate our nervous systems, and build deeper connections with ourselves and others. One of the highlights of the retreat was the sense of camaraderie and brotherhood that developed among the men. Sharing this journey with a small group of men who were equally committed to personal growth was profoundly impactful. I’m getting teary eyes just thinking about the amazing experience. We supported each other, shared our stories, and formed bonds that I believe will last a lifetime. The retreat also provided ample time for rest, reflection and play. The balance between structured activities and free time allowed me to process my experiences and integrate the lessons learned. I left the retreat feeling rejuvenated, with a renewed sense of purpose and clarity. The RESET retreat with Mike Sagun is a life-changing experience. If you’re looking to deepen your emotional skills, improve your relationships, and reconnect with your true self (yes, that boy that is still there), I highly recommend this retreat. It’s an investment in yourself that will pay dividends for years to come. Love you Mike!!!
