Collective Reset: A Leadership Retreat

Join Adrian Sinclair and Janet Moore and a select cohort of leaders from social, political, environmental, health and educational organizations for a transformative 5-day retreat.

Together, we will reimagine what it means to reset our nervous systems while connecting with others who are building enterprises and advancing movements in the systems-change sector. The retreat’s central purpose is to engage deeply with our interconnected embodied systems, facilitating a reset and recharge that empowers us to return to our lives and work with enhanced clarity, focus, and energy.

If we seek to navigate and build a new way of being in both human and natural worlds, we propose to experiment with and experience alternative ways of being together while recharging and resetting our nervous systems. Could we prioritize emergent and innovative practices in how we support ourselves and fellow leaders? What if the highest priority was not self-care but fostering mutual and self care simultaneously? While artificial intelligence may dominate conversations today, we are betting on the continual cultivation of our embodied intelligence as our collective and interdependent foundation.
