LifeForward: Diving Deeper

“So long as a person is capable of self-renewal, they are truly a living being.” Henri-Frederic Amiel

This two-day, in-person program is designed to refresh your LifeForward experience and help you Dive Deeper. It uses new experiences and ways of reflecting to further your understanding of self, based on the change and transition models core to LifeForward. Participants will also have the opportunity to connect and grow with other Hudson coaches in small learning groups. 

Knowing & Growing Ourselves

This program explores methods for intentionally becoming more of who we are while connecting more deeply with who we can become. As we mature, we become more aware of how to self-author our future chapters by drawing on several centers of intelligence. Using our intuition, imagination, somatic awareness, and crystallized intelligence, we can access our inner wisdom to define how we want to be and who we want to become. Diving deeper into ourselves, we find the clarity and courage that allows us to rewrite our stories, reconnect to our purpose, and reignite our passions.

Embracing Self-Renewal at Any Stage

All life stages demand transformative deep work to meet the developmental challenges contained in that stage. Using emergence, experimentation, and openness to discovery, we can creatively wander toward versions of ourselves that are true to our heart’s deepest desires and more reflective of how we want to contribute to the world. Developing healthy rhythms, regular practices, and writing new core narratives helps us to carry who we are into the world at any age or life stage.

Gathering at the Upham Hotel in Santa Barbara, we will build on the methods and models that so accelerated our growth when we first went through LifeForward, while introducing new approaches that will deepen our development. No matter where you are in your season of life or where you may be on the Cycle of Renewal, you will find useful methods for writing your own next chapter and expressing who you are more fully in the world.

Objectives:

• Revisit your original LifeForward journey and acknowledge the valuable work you have done to set the stage for the work that lies ahead.
• Starting with your current life stage, imagine ways to align with your values, passions, and inner knowing to open the space for new ways of bringing yourself to the world.
• Gain new insights, shed old stories, find inner and outer support, and call on your own wisdom and courage to express your more authentic self using different ways of knowing.
• Envision how your individual development is tied to the larger circles of the human family and how you may have an impact and influence from where you are and beyond.
• Set intentions and design directions for the next phase of your life journey.
• Engage with and contribute to the shared wisdom of a learning community committed to enhancing and amplifying what we can do individually and collectively.
