I always wished there was a secret handbook for life. One with all of the answers. One that told you what you could expect, what problems you would face and how to handle each one. I entered adulthood feeling unprepared. Unsure of what I ‘should’ be doing, feeling, thinking. Feeling lost. I didn’t know life could be so hard.

As time went on more tools became available - books, podcasts, and of course numerous online resources. And all of this information helped me a lot. But it wasn’t enough. I needed to meet other people who were living proof of this wisdom. I needed to have a vision. I needed to see what I was learning embodied -so I could embody it too.

I needed to see possibilities. I needed to ask questions. I needed connection. I needed experiences. I needed mentors.

People with wisdom about life. Not just ‘hard skills’, but the so called ‘soft’ ones. Wisdom about the seasons of life. Wisdom about some of the things that I needed support with - personal growth, purpose, passions, anxiety, panic attacks, parenting, emotional regulation, grief etc etc. There are so many important life skills that are not taught.
