What types of events?
STORYTIME
(no-cost)
We read to kids all the time! Why not read to adults? Once a month, I will read a story related to one or more of these ten “breaking free” themes. In this interactive session, I provide prompts for individual reflection, journaling, and optional small-group discussions.
SPECIAL WORKSHOPS AND DISCUSSIONS
(no-cost)
Leaders, experts, authors, and thought leaders share a component of their story or expertise and lead an interactive group discussion.
BREAKTHROUGH LEADERSHIP RETREATS
Be the first to know about (and get early registration access for) our life-changing Breakthrough Leadership Retreats. Some retreat programs will be international (Italy, Switzerland, and possibly Morocco!) and others will be stateside (in beautiful outdoor areas such as Sedona, AZ, North Cascades, WA, and other charming and irresistible locations). You'll also be the first to know about deeper-dive discussion series, workshops, and group coaching.
our commitment to equity
Our Leader Development Equity Fund ensures equitable access for nonprofit leaders, rising leaders, leaders who are between jobs (or recovering from workplace trauma), and leaders who have a larger financial commitment to their families or communities. Nearly 50% of our Breakthrough Leadership community has benefitted from our scholarship program. So if you are in need of assistance for any of our paid programming, reach out! Don’t be shy.
Our guiding pillars:
CONNECT
Engage in meaningful discussions with other leaders as you grow and push yourself towards the future you want to create. Take the armor off and get real with each other. Share your challenges and breakthroughs. Expand your network, develop trusted friendships, learn from each other, and remember you are not alone.
ELEVATE & AMPLIFY
Amplify each other. Open doors. Broker connections. Elevate each other's voices and impact. Invest in each other's success. Listen deeply. Give feedback, encouragement, validation, support, and coaching. Bolster and anchor each other through tough times. Create more joy through powerful connections, vulnerability, and laughter.
BREAKTHROUGH
Get the support you need to crystalize your career and life vision, believe it is possible, and break through barriers. Get useful insights, advice, and coaching as you take leaps to unleash your full potential! Find levity, humor, and connection along the way. Broaden your network of friends, mentors, and sponsors.
