FORGED IN FIRE
An Awareness Camp for Men

Forged in Fire is a three-day camp for men built around fire, ceremony, conversation, reflection, and time in nature.

No performance. No pretending you have it all figured out. No pressure to be someone you're not. Just an opportunity to slow things down, spend time in nature, and explore some of the things that matter most.

LIFE LESSONS FROM THE FIRE Over the weekend, we'll explore four simple themes:

Navigating Emotional Thunderstorms Every man has storms. Anger. Fear. Frustration. Grief. Pressure. Sometimes you ride them out. Sometimes you make a mess. Sometimes you learn something. We'll look at what your storms might be trying to tell you and how to navigate them.

Respect for Your Noble Heart A man's heart can be one of his greatest strengths—and one of the things he learns to protect. What happens when you stop treating that part of yourself as a weakness?

Fear & Desire on the Path of Love We want things. Connection. Love. Adventure. Intimacy. Freedom. And sometimes we're afraid of exactly the things we want most. What does that tension have to teach you?

Silence Is Golden No need for words when you can hear what is unspoken. Enjoy some time to sit, listen, and notice what shows up when you aren't busy filling the space.

THE AWARENESS CEREMONY

During the journey, you'll be supported by Shannon Hurley, Celeste Lemieux, and trusted Wisdom Keepers, drawing on more than 20 years of experience and training in supporting meaningful transformational experiences.

And the weekend doesn't end when the ceremony does. Integration calls are part of the process, giving you space to make sense of what you experienced and consider what, if anything, you want to bring home with you. Because an experience is one thing. What you do with it is another.

Forged In Fire - An Awareness Ceremony Camp for Men

There’s a lot a man carries. Work. Family. Responsibility. Expectations. Decisions. The things he talks about—and the things he doesn’t.

Sometimes you need to get away from all of it. Not to escape your life. To get some perspective on it.

THE AWARENESS CEREMONY
At the heart of the weekend is an Awareness Ceremony—a guided psilocybin journey held in a carefully prepared and supported setting.

This isn't something you simply show up for. Before the ceremony, you'll complete an intake process and preparation calls so you understand the experience, have an opportunity to establish your intentions, and know what to expect.

During the journey, you'll be supported by Shannon Hurley, Celeste Lemieux, and trusted Wisdom Keepers, drawing on more than 20 years of experience and training in supporting & integrating meaningful transformational journeys.

🍂 HARVESTING WHOLENESS

A 2-Day Awareness Ceremony Retreat for Women
October 3–4

Harvesting Wholeness is an intimate two-day retreat for women who feel called to slow down, turn inward, and create space for something deeper to emerge.

Held in nature, this is an opportunity to step away from the noise of everyday life and listen more closely—to your body, your intuition, your desires, and the parts of you asking for attention.

Over two days, we’ll move through:

🍂 Nature walk + intention setting
🌿 Guided psychedelic Awareness Ceremony
🥣 Nourishing meals + beautiful food
🔔 Sound bath
🌙 Overnight stay for rest + integration
🧘‍♀️ Gentle morning movement
⭕ Closing circle

Your experience is supported before and after the retreat with preparation and integration calls, creating space to arrive intentionally and continue integrating what you discover.

You don’t need to have it all figured out.
You don’t need the perfect intention.

You simply need a willingness to pause, listen, and meet yourself where you are.

Harvesting Wholeness is an invitation to gather yourself back in.

To reconnect with your inner knowing.
To make space for what wants to grow next.

The North Saskatchewan River flooded the valley last week, and the rains haven't stopped.

We were hoping the water would receed in time for the field of dreams to be your stomping grounds for the Hootenanny on the Hill. The weather hasn't helped.

The decision to postpone until next year is sure to bring you a more robust event for your enjoyment.

We have commitments from amazing musicians to bring you a day of community and a great time!

For all of you who have purchased your tickets, your refund is on its way!

Sincerely,
Celeste & Shannon
& the Hootenanny Team
