FORTIV Expeditions are 1–4 day outdoor adventures across California's coast, islands, deserts, and mountains. Physical challenge, solitude, and fireside conversation become the setting for honest inner work and a hard reset.
A FORTIV Expedition is an off-grid adventure for men who need a hard reset: mentally, spiritually, and physically. Think mountain biking new trails in the SoCal hills, quail hunting in the desert, surf fishing at dawn, a crossing to an offshore island, and camping off the grid.
This isn't a retreat. The physical challenge is the container for honest conversation, masculine initiation, and real breakthrough. Expeditions also teach skills many of us missed growing up, so we fill in the gaps and learn from each other.
You've been moving fast. But have you checked your direction? Without space for perspective, leadership defaults to pressure, performance, and control.
Every expedition blends four things, in different proportions depending on the place and the men.
No. Expeditions are designed for men at different levels of fitness and outdoor experience. Show up with humility and a willingness to push past what's comfortable, and FORTIV handles the rest.
Mostly on California's west coast, offshore islands, deserts, and Sierra mountain ranges. Longer trips to the Pacific Northwest, Baja California, and Central America are in the works.
Between one and four days, depending on the trip.
Seth, you turned what typically is shame into a discussion of growth and exploration of my thought processes. In the end there was a sense of growth and, more importantly, a path laid out before me.
I left feeling very clear about what needs to shift in my mentality to start getting different results, and making keeping commitments a natural part of my operation.
The hard part is addressing things and doing something about it. When I do something about it, it removes the weight of doing nothing and still having it hang over my head.
Seth has spent eight years and thousands of hours coaching CEOs, founders, and their teams, six of them inside Novus Global, one of the world's premier executive coaching firms. FORTIV is the next chapter: everything he learned, built on the conviction that identity is the foundation of every real breakthrough.
Every FORTIV engagement begins with a free, no-pressure exploratory call.
