An Invitation

As we approach the Summer Solstice—the longest day of the year—we’re slowly moving towards the light. This seasonal shift invites us to pause and reconnect with what sustains us. A moment to reflect, take stock, and gain clarity in light of all that’s been unfolding. In these times of constant change and uncertainty, many of us feel overwhelmed and under-resourced. We are navigating increased stress, complex challenges, and a longing to feel grounded again.

  • Program Dates: June 13th - July 3rd

  • Kickoff Retreat: A 90-minute immersive session to set intentions and build community

  • Weekly Resourcing Calls: Over 3 Weeks, each Monday and Friday, we'll hold space for one another as we navigate these challenging times.

  • Optional micro-videos and reflective journaling.

  • Explore simple, science-backed practices to navigate stress and uncertainty.​

  • Delve into mindfulness techniques to find calm amidst the chaos; light within the darkness. ​

  • Reflect on our journeys and envision the path ahead.​

  • Time: This program is an investment both in yourself and in others in this community, therefore, we ask that you commit to showing up to the kick-off retreat and at least 4 of the six weekly calls. Dates and times for live sessions are listed below.
