The Shift

Shifts are no small thing. When we feel in our spirits that we are ready for something new, something different, or the next level, that is usually grounded in transformative energy. This space endeavors to provide what most institutions were not built to support: space to reflect and grow, space to connect and build relationships, and space to practice and cultivate your creative and generative energies and engage in collective care on personal and professional levels.

Be ready for a 10 month journey in self- and leadership development with a strong cohort of leaders, learners, and shifters.

“Do not desire to fit in.

Desire to oblige yourselves to lead.”

Gwendolyn Brooks
