  • Take a break from daily life and current events,
  • Feel more engaged, clear, hopeful, and empowered about your own life,

"I wanted to say how meaningful the (event) was. It was such a great opportunity to gather with a group of thoughtful, compassionate, and energizing people. Not only did the experience offer the rare space for introspection and personal growth, but it also encouraged a sense of connection and mutual support with others in similar situations. I left with a sense of optimism and encouragement, and hope others did as well." - Past Participant


"It's a lovely day where you get to talk about how you feel about things and get feedback. I felt very comfortable with the other attendees and an immediate sense of community and connection for the day. I loved some of the breakthroughs I had and found the event helped put things into perspective." - Past Participant


This event is for you if you:

  • have a growth mindset,
  • like figuring out how to make life better,
  • feel inspired by nature,
  • dig connecting with people,
  • enjoy exploring what's possible, or

The January Friday Field Trip theme is Amplify Your Intentions.
Reflect on where you've been in the prior year and where you'd like to go next. We'll explore real world activities and coaching exercises to set a great course for the new year.
Whether you have your year mapped out or just have some rough ideas, this event will support you in both clarifying and amplifying your intentions.
By getting out of your day-to-day life in a fun, supportive environment you’ll be able to more clearly see what’s happening in your life as well as what’s possible.

You’ll walk away with a fuller cup, fresh insights, and the knowledge that you can plug back into this group over time to deepen your connection with yourself and others.

Give yourself a Friday off to pay attention to your life and intentionally create it. (Bonus! You’ll still have your entire weekend to do as you please.)
