Wed, 21 Jan 2026 11:06:33 GMT

Most leaders crave change and desire to create transformative results in the world around them. Yet too many leaders set out with good intentions before understanding themselves. The Adventure Within is packed with reflection, exercises, and insights designed to help the leader take account of what got them where they are, help them lead a much more joyful existence by aligning their needs, values, boundaries and standards with their much larger purpose in life.

As a result of this workshop, participants will be equipped to:

Discover the disconnect between hardwired needs and espoused values and their effects on one’s emotional energy in the world
Differentiate between how you react to the world vs. create in the world to lead toward self-authorship
Create action plans on how to lead differently
