Development programs built for people in the trades, oil and gas, mining, and heavy industry. Not a therapy group. Not a weekend seminar. Work that sticks.
"Built for the person who pushes through 16-hour shifts, works every holiday, and still wonders if there's more to it than the paycheque."
If you're pulling 12-hour days, rotating through nights, or spending weeks away from home to get the job done — this was built for you.
Most personal development content is designed for office workers. The language is wrong, the examples don't fit, and the advice doesn't land. ConnectUs is built differently — because you are.
That gap between the person you are and the one you know you could be — that's exactly what this is for.
"You were built for more than a shift and a paycheque. That restlessness you carry isn't a problem — it's a signal. We help you figure out what it's pointing toward."
One entry point. One program that goes deeper. Both built for people who don't have time to waste.
A self-paced intro course that helps you figure out how you're wired, what drives you, and where you're headed. Enneagram-based. Straight talk. No fluff.
A 12-week cohort program for people ready to go deeper. Identity, leadership, relationships, vision — and the physical discipline to back it all up. Small group. High accountability. Real results.
We work directly with employers, site managers, and HR to bring development programming to your crew — without pulling people off the job. Custom delivery available.
Evan Jordanov built ConnectUs Resources for the person he used to be — someone who knew how to push hard but didn't know what he was pushing toward.
With a background in farming, oilfield work, and over a decade in coaching and leadership development, he built this for the people who fall through the cracks of every other program.
Evan's path through farming, the oilfield, and YWAM gave him a clear picture of what it looks like when a person finds their footing — and what it costs when they don't. ConnectUs is built on the belief that everyone is wired for purpose. The work is figuring out yours.
"I'd spent 15 years being the most dependable person on site. This was the first time I actually stopped to figure out what I wanted."
— Marcus, Heavy Equipment Operator, Alberta
Start with Core Sample — a look at how you're wired and where you're headed. No pitch. No fluff. Just a place to start.
Every ConnectUs program includes an optional faith track — questions, content, and reflection for the person who wants to bring their whole self to the work. You don't have to opt in. But if you're someone who thinks about things beyond the job, it's there.
