If you’re building something that calls people into growth, service, or transformation—we can help shape its container.

We have a deep commitment to veterans’ mental health and post-service reintegration. Sojourn supports veteran organizations through:

Retreat and curriculum design focused on identity development, community development, story integration, and emotional skill developments.

Training staff and volunteers in trauma stewardship, psychological safety, and cultural humility

Strategic planning for sustainable growth, community trust, and funding alignment

Ethical review and program audits to ensure consistency with your stated values

Yes. We work with outfitters, wilderness schools, and guiding companies to:

Build or restructure seasonal staffing models and training programs

Improve participant experience design, from intake to debrief

Align operations with mental health and inclusion best practices

Develop risk frameworks and communication systems that support growth and integrity

Transition traditional guiding models toward more therapeutically aware experiences

We meet you where you’re at—whether you’re still packing gear in your garage or managing a multi-state operation.

We do—particularly in the relational, psychological, and procedural aspects of risk. Our consulting addresses:

Emotional and social risk in high-impact programming

Ethical boundaries, duty of care, and repair culture

Internal policy systems for safety, reporting, and conflict

Culture-wide approaches to feedback, power dynamics, and staff wellness

We often collaborate with legal, insurance, or clinical teams to ensure alignment with best practices.

No two projects are the same, but here’s a common flow:

Discovery Call – We clarify your goals, challenges, and scope

Proposal – You receive a detailed plan with timeline, deliverables, and investment

Engagement Phase – This may include site visits, staff interviews, program review, or hands-on development

Implementation & Support – We deliver tools, documents, trainings, and follow-up strategy

We can work in short bursts or long-term partnership, depending on your bandwidth and needs.

Both. We travel to client sites for on-the-ground immersion, but also provide virtual consulting via Zoom, and other collaboration tools. Many projects use a hybrid model.

We believe:

Your people are your strongest asset—not your program design or gear

Growth without alignment leads to burnout—we help you build from the roots up

Reflection is strategic—clarity leads to action

Outdoor work is sacred work—and should be structured with care, equity, and purpose

We bring both operational acumen and depth psychology to the table—because real change needs both structure and soul.

We price transparently and fairly, billing at 50-75% of project cost upfont.
Consulting is offered as:

Hourly sessions for short-term advising or project guidance

Per diem rates for site visits, trainings, or strategic facilitation

Project-based pricing for longer-term consulting or development contracts

Sliding scale rates for grassroots, BIPOC-led, or veteran-founded organizations

We work hard to make our services accessible while sustaining high integrity and impact.

Schedule a Discovery call. From there, we’ll evaluate whether we’re the right fit for one another, draft a proposal that reflects your goals, budget, and mission!

We’re not here to upsell - we’re here to help you build something that works sustainably so it can positively impact your clients/customers and staff.

We track progress through regular goal assessments and feedback sessions. Success is often defined by the achievement of your specific goals and increased self-awareness and confidence.

We have a flexible cancellation policy. Please provide at least 24 hours notice if you need to reschedule or cancel a session to avoid any charges.
