THE WILL TO LIVE · COLORADO SPRINGS

AT WAR WITH
WHAT BREAKS US.

On the side of every person living through it.

We are openly at war with depression, anxiety, PTSD, suicide, addiction, and the shame that tells people to struggle alone.

These struggles have touched our lives. The Will To Live exists to stand with others through movement, community, and service.

MOVEMENT. COMMUNITY. SERVICE.MEET THE MISSION

WE MOVE TOGETHER. WE FIGHT FOR ONE ANOTHER.

YOU ARE NOT
THE ENEMY.

Depression. Anxiety. PTSD. Addiction. Suicide. These struggles have touched our lives. We’re coming for the shame and isolation that tell people to face them alone.

We are here for you. On the hard days. In the starting over. When showing up is all you have.

No purchase. No performance. No story you have to tell to belong.

THIS IS HOW WE ANSWER

01

Movement.

Different paces. Different starting points. A shared goal that belongs to all of us. We move in defiance of the thoughts that tell us we are not worth the effort. Your pace and your limits matter.

02

Community.

Learn a name. Stay for a conversation. Make room for someone having a hard day. You can belong without performing strength or explaining your pain.

03

Service.

Put care to work. Carry supplies. Give time. Help meet a real local need. Receiving help and offering it both have a place here; your worth never depends on how much you can give.

KEEP THE LIGHT · FREE WEEKLY WORKOUTS

Keep the Light.
Show up together.

Our free weekly workouts put the mission into practice: movement, community, and time together. Each gathering gives us a shared goal—something everyone can work toward, with room for different starting points and ways to contribute.

We move together. We encourage one another. We celebrate what we accomplish as a group. We’re planning the first gathering in Colorado Springs; the date, time, and venue are still being arranged.
