looks like in practice.

A short film about the Forge48 experience: the mountain, the work, the transformation.

01
The Problem
01

You Know
How to Coach.
So why does it still feel wrong?

Maybe you've been at this for years. You have clients, income, a practice that works on paper. But the way you're doing it isn't yours. You're tired of the content treadmill, the visibility game, the marketing that feels like performing. You're coaching at a high level but still hustling like a beginner.

Or you're earlier in the journey. You've left corporate, or you're about to. You know coaching is your path, but you're scared. You study what successful coaches do, try to replicate their models, collect credentials hoping the next one will finally unlock confidence.

Both situations share the same underlying problem: you're looking outside yourself for answers that can only come from inside.

The coaching market is growing. But for most individual coaches, the experience is a paradox: more demand than ever, and more noise, more competition, more pressure to market yourself in ways that feel hollow.

The real problem isn't strategy. It's that your internal posture hasn't caught up with your actual capability. You're a skilled coach running someone else's playbook, and the gap between who you are in sessions and how you show up in your business is costing you energy, money, and alignment.

The enemy isn't other coaches. It's commoditization, and the pressure to perform for algorithms instead of building something real.

02
The Mechanism

Creation = Presence
× (e)motion.

The Equation Behind Forge48

Most coaches who feel stuck aren’t missing skills or strategy. They’re missing one of two things: the quiet to hear what they actually want, or the aliveness to act on it. Forge48 is built to restore both. In sequence.

The first day, the first three or four hikes, is devoted entirely to presence. Moving through mountain terrain strips away the noise: the market pressure, the comparison, the identity you’ve been performing. What comes forward is your actual voice. The one that knows what kind of practice you want to build and has been waiting for you to stop long enough to listen.

The second day shifts. Once presence is restored, something else wakes up: (e)motion, energy in motion. The aliveness that makes you want to commit, build, create. The coaching sessions turn from inquiry to production. Not planning. Starting. The mountain creates the presence. The coaching makes it move. What you build from there is yours.

What This Is

A Container for Decisive Action.
Not Another Course.

I
The Intensive

48 Hours
in the Mountains

Seven hikes over two days: midnight, dawn, midday, evening, then again. You move through darkness and light, exhaustion and recovery, challenge and rest. The structure is deliberate. The progression is intentional.

The hikes aren't metaphors. They're tools. When your body is working hard, your defenses drop. The stories you've been carrying about why things have to be a certain way begin to crack. Space opens for something truer to emerge.

Between hikes, we go deep. On what you've inherited versus what you've chosen. On the gap between the coach you are in sessions and the business you've built around that work. On what your life could actually look like, and whether your current path leads there.

II
After Each Hike

Integration
Sessions

After each hike, the cohort regroups for coaching and integration. This is where the physical experience becomes insight. We work with what surfaced during the challenge: the resistance you felt, the clarity that came through, the patterns you noticed in yourself.

The body opens what talking alone can't reach. Coaches who've spent years in cognitive work helping others think through problems need a different kind of access. This is it.

III
Day Three

Clear
Creation

You won't leave with vague insights. After your final hike, you enter a dedicated creation session. Not reflection. Production. What you create depends on what you need.

  • A signature offer that's unmistakably yours, not a copy of what other coaches are selling
  • A repositioned practice that reflects how you actually want to work and live
  • A clear "why you" that you can articulate without performing
  • A "no list": the clients, formats, pricing, and visibility behaviors you're done with
  • The first draft of the thing you've been avoiding: the book, the program, the pivot

You define it, start it, and share it with your cohort before the weekend ends. The first artifact exists. You leave with something real. Not just planned.

IV
Weeks 1–6

6-Week
Integration Sprint

Transformation that happens in intensive experiences fades if you don't anchor it in action. After the 48 hours, we stay connected through a structured six-week sprint designed to turn insight into momentum.

  • Weekly group calls with your cohort to share progress and accountability
  • Three deep 1:1 coaching sessions when you need personalized guidance
  • Peer accountability: your cohort holds you to what you committed to
  • Support when old patterns try to pull you back to where you started

By the end, you don't just have clarity. You have something in the world.

Strike One
Not a Retreat

This isn't a place to relax, journal, and return home feeling inspired but unchanged.

"It's a container for decisive action. You leave with something built, not just something realized."

Strike Two
Not a Mastermind

This isn't a room where coaches swap tactics, pass leads, and copy what's working for others.

"The work is about building from who you actually are, not borrowing from a template that doesn't fit."

Strike Three
Not a Marketing Course

This isn't about funnels, content strategies, or how to get more clients in the next 90 days.

"The focus is on you. Who you are as a coach. What's yours to offer. How you want to live. And how your business can actually support all of that."

The Body Opens
What Talking Alone Can't Reach

You might be wondering about the hiking. Here's what you need to know: the challenge is calibrated. We have different routes based on fitness level, steeper ascents for those who want to push hard, gentler paths for those who need them. Everyone completes the experience. You choose the intensity.

If you can handle a few hours of moderate hiking with breaks, you can handle this. It's about determination, not athleticism. The hills serve your clarity, not the other way around.

For coaches who've spent years in cognitive work, helping others think through their problems, another thinking-based approach often doesn't break through. Something different is needed. The mountain provides it.

Who This Is For

Two kinds of coaches.
The same essential work.

I
The Established Coach

You Have Clients.
You're Still Not Fulfilled.

  • You have clients and capability, but you're scattered across too many offers
  • You're drained by the visibility work and content treadmill
  • Your pricing and positioning feel stuck below your actual value
  • What you're building doesn't reflect who you actually are
  • You sense a simpler, more aligned way exists, but you can't see it from inside your current situation
II
The Emerging Coach

You're Starting.
You Refuse to Fake It.

  • You refuse to build it the way everyone says you should
  • You've seen the content treadmill, the credential collecting, the hustle, and you want no part of it
  • You want to start from who you actually are, not from someone else's template
  • You're done with scattered experimentation that leads nowhere
  • You want to compress 12–24 months of figuring it out into one decisive shift

"Both belong in the same room. While the operational details differ, the real work is identical: getting clear on what's actually yours, and building from there."

07
What Clients Say

"He doesn't simply facilitate a process, he guides transformation. Through his insight and empathy, he helps people move beyond barriers and discover what it means to become their best and most authentic self. Working with Borut is both inspiring and transformative."

Dr. William M. Beachy, Ph.D.

"Borut is a rock to lean on in the coaching process. Someone that walks by your side come rain, come shine. Someone you can trust."

Bianca-Janina Kux

"A master of asking questions that make you think and reflect. He's been an important support in this growth process."

Ana Furlani, Arctur

The Julian Alps.
Slovenia.

Forest. Silence. Sky. The peaks of the Julian Alps on the horizon. A premium mountain location where every route begins and ends at the door.

Each participant has their own private accommodation. Between hikes, you can recover and recharge in silence. All meals are provided, designed to fuel both body and mind throughout the experience.

All hiking routes start directly from the venue. You won't be traveling between locations. The container is tight and intentional.

For those traveling from outside Europe: think of this as a five-day container. 48 hours of intensive work inside a longer journey. The travel itself is part of the rupture from routine, the break from the ordinary that makes the extraordinary possible.

Borut
Jeglič

Lead Coach & Creator of Forge48

I've trained nearly 100 coaches. I've watched talented people drain themselves chasing visibility, copying strategies that don't fit, building businesses that look right but feel wrong. I've seen what happens when coaches try to solve an alignment problem with marketing tactics.

I've also been there myself. A few years ago I was running a coaching company I co-founded. On paper it was working. But I felt increasingly disconnected from it. I was building something that made sense strategically but didn't feel like mine.

It took stepping away, doing my own deep work, spending time in the mountains, and asking hard questions to find my way forward. That process became Misogi Works. Forge48 became the container where I help others do the same.

The coaches who build sustainable, fulfilling practices aren't the ones who figured out the algorithm. They're the ones who got so clear on their own value, their own approach, their own way of working that the right clients found them, often without all the machinery everyone says you need.

That clarity doesn't come from another course. It comes from doing the hard inner work. That's what we do here.

Common Questions

Questions Worth
Answering Honestly.

01 "Is the hiking too intense for me?" +

The challenge is calibrated. We have different routes based on fitness level: from steeper ascents for those who want to push hard to gentler paths that follow the road. Everyone completes the experience; you choose the intensity. If you can handle a few hours of moderate hiking with breaks, you can handle this. It's about determination, not athleticism.

02 "Why physical challenge? I'm a coach, not an athlete." +

Exactly. For coaches who've spent years in cognitive work, helping others think through problems, another thinking-based approach often doesn't break through. The body opens what talking alone can't reach. The physical element isn't there to test you. It's there to access what your usual cognitive tools can't.

03 "Will this help me get more clients?" +

Not directly. This isn't a marketing program. But here's what we've observed: coaches who get clear on who they are, what's uniquely theirs, and how they want to work tend to attract the right clients more naturally. Clarity is the foundation everything else builds on. The right clients recognize it.

04 "I'm early in my coaching career. Is this too advanced?" +

No. In fact, starting from clarity rather than copying what others do can save you years of building something that doesn't fit. Established and emerging coaches both benefit from the same core work: getting clear on what's actually yours, from the beginning.

05 "How is this different from other coaching retreats?" +

Most coaching retreats are cognitive: you learn frameworks, swap strategies, network. Forge48 uses physical challenge to bypass the defenses that keep you stuck in the same patterns. You don't just think about what to change. You experience the shift, then build from it. The creation session at the end means you leave with something real, not just planned.

06 "What if I don't know what I want to create yet?" +

That's common and welcome. The 48 hours are designed to surface what you already know but haven't been able to access. Many participants arrive with uncertainty and leave with a specific, started artifact. Clarity comes through the doing, not before it. The container creates the conditions; the content emerges from you.

If this resonates,
let's talk.

Not a sales call. A real conversation about where you are, what you're building, and whether this is right for you.
