The Soul Hunt
A 10-week expedition designed to expand your range across the five territories of a man’s life: Woman. Work. Wealth. Wisdom. World.

We begin October 26 · Hunt. Gather. Return.
The Soul Hunt is a 10-week guided group expedition for men who sense there's more to themselves, and more to the lives they've built, waiting to be discovered. Through five territories—woman, wisdom, work, wealth, and world—we draw on depth psychology, soul work, and philosophy to explore what it means to become more fully ourselves. Through weekly gatherings, field assignments, and a brotherhood of like-hearted men, we follow what's asking for our attention and bring what we discover back into how we love, work, lead, and live.

Ryan Soul Hunting in the Amazon jungle
Somewhere in midlife, a man's quest changes.
There comes a time in a man's life when the things that once gave him direction stop telling him where to go.
His work. His marriage. His ambitions. Even his understanding of success.
Nothing necessarily needs to be wrong. Something new may simply be asking to be lived.
That's where the hunt begins.
Through my own life, my work with men and women, and my doctoral research, I've come to see that this shift isn't a mistake. It's part of the natural unfolding of a human life.
The familiar territories of love, work, wealth, wisdom, and the world begin to change. What once felt certain becomes unfamiliar. What once gave us direction starts asking something different of us.
And within that unfamiliarity are parts of ourselves waiting to be discovered.
New ways of loving. Working. Leading. Creating. Living.
The Soul Hunt is an invitation to explore those territories.
Ten weeks. Five territories. A small brotherhood of men.
Part expedition. Part inquiry. Part art of becoming.
No prescribed version of the man you're supposed to be.
No manufactured breakthroughs.
Because a guaranteed result would defeat the point of a hunt.
Still, men may return with something:
- 01A part of themselves they haven't felt in years.
- 02More peace and playfulness with those they love.
- 03Deeper wisdom for navigating their world.
- 04New ways of leading and contributing through their work.
- 05A different relationship with money, enoughness, and success.
- 06A renewed sense of meaning in their existence.
And sometimes, a man doesn't know what he's found until the hunt is over.
Let's hunt.

Ryan Wegenast
Ryan Wegenast has spent the last fifteen years exploring what happens when accomplished men reach the edges of the lives they’ve built.
His work sits at an unusual intersection of depth psychology, mythology, philosophy, embodied practice, leadership, and the wild.
He is a doctoral researcher in East-West Psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies, where his creative research explores myth, identity, meaning-making, and what it means to become more fully human.
His path has taken him from medicine and military training to Indigenous elders, founders, executives, artists, husbands, and fathers around the world.
SoulHunting grew out of that life of inquiry.
Not as another system for improving men.
As a way of taking them somewhere they might not go on their own.
