From Chaos To Clarity: Your 3-Day Journey To Mindful Leadership
Awakening Conscious Leadership Experience (ACLE) is a 3-day immersion, where you’ll learn the neuroscience and mindfulness of leading (and living) well from within.
Elevate your Presence, Expand your Influence
The world’s rapid evolution and uncertainty, especially post-pandemic, is heightening stress and affecting our well-being.
We’re navigating uncharted waters with limited tools, often defaulting to survival modes that keep us from being and doing our best.
Sustained change begins within and extends to others through our presence and influence. That’s why it’s time to reframe our approach to life and leadership.
It’s time to focus on the immense power of human connection and collaboration.
