Matt Walker of Matt Walker Adventure works with high performing men to get them out of the office and into nature on adventures. The work is so powerful because if you can handle adversity in the outdoors you can apply it back at home.
Two of the biggest lessons his clients take from expeditions are:
Belief. We are way more capable and powerful we allow ourselves to believe. Providing people an opportunity to face something they think is impossible so they accomplish things they didn’t know they could do is powerful. Humility. Learning to be humble to nature, ourselves and others. Asking for help and receiving support and letting down our armour - those barriers that keep us connected from others.We both shared how important is to always have high level mentors in our lives, not matter where we are at in our growth. That accountability is so valuable - whether it’s really deep and engaging or more intermittent support.
We also talked about how we need to gain a high level of trust as practitioners and in ourselves in order to take our clients on these in-depth journeys.
His biggest growth has come from letting go of the outcome he thinks his clients should get from the program and allowing them have their own experience.
“We need to respect our clients deeply in order to let them get what they need.”
