Service Description

I have found a tremendous amount of self-understanding and healing through wilderness kayaking, and through other men supporting me on life's journey. These experiences have been the heartbeat of Tidal Journeys; my desire to provide other men an opportunity to connect, grow, and find encouragement for their journey. -John __________ We want to give men the space and permission to connect deeply with their lives. Ask the hard questions, come to an understanding of who we are, and live in connection with the stories that have shaped them. Doing this work alongside other men often gives us insights to ourselves that we cannot see on our own. Join a group of men who want to pursue wholeness for themselves, and for their brothers. This Men’s* Kayaking Trip will take place in the beautiful Nootka Sound on the West coast of Vancouver Island from June 23-27. These five days in one of BC's most stunning marine parks gives us the disconnect we need from our daily stressors to focus on who we are as men, and how we want to intentionally live out our callings. __________ Carson Kivari, the director of Thrive Downtown Counselling Clinic, will be leading us through different sessions on personal transformation. The goal is for you to walk away from this trip feeling more connected to yourself and energized to take on the next step in your life’s journey. John Lippert, the owner of Tidal Journeys, will be our lead guide on the water and head chef. He is a former Army Ranger and EMT who loves helping people with personal growth by getting them out into the wild so they can disconnect from their busy lives. Jess Bradshaw, a Paddle Canada Kayak instructor and guide, will be our second guide on the water ensuring our safety and teaching paddling skills to new paddlers. No kayaking experience required! __________ For $1,250.00 you can join us on this Men’s Journey. All of the gear for camping and kayaking is included, as well as your meals. The only thing you are required to provide is toiletries, clothing (paddling clothing is provided), and a willingness to explore with a group of other men. A full packing list and itinerary will be sent to you upon registration. We will meet at Cougar Creek on Thursday, June 23rd at 2pm. We will return there by 2pm on Monday the 27th. Limited carpooling is available on a first-come basis. We can't wait to see you on the water, John *This Journey is open to anyone who identifies as a man.
