Our immediate, and always running, vehicle for change, is activating and executing our ideas.

Instead of making vision boards (too big picture and unactionable) and rigid five-year plans (overwhelming action plans will make you take no action at all) - we should design purpose prototypes™.  During this 2-day immersive, self-guided retreat, we will map out your unique path to impact, minus the pressure of getting everything "perfect." Think of it as a living, breathing vision blueprint for your most meaningful life—where you're the architect, and iteration is your creative fuel.
