LEADING THROUGH THE VOID
RETREAT
Sept. 24-30, 2023
UNPRECEDENTED TIMES CALL FOR UNPRECeDENTED LEADERS
Are you ready to be one of them?
Discover How to Unleash Your Unique Powers and Harness the Groundbreaking Characteristics Needed to Be a Resilient Leader, Thriving in Whatever Circumstances Arise Today and Tomorrow.
Leaders, High Performers, CEO's and CxO's…
You’ve excelled at everything, your entire life –Top of the class, varsity team, perfect career, record numbers for the business,
BUT…
Do you FEEL successful?
Are you truly happy?
And, What is it costing you?
CEOs tend to be very lonely and have very high burn out rates, particularly women.
Of the super rich in the US, a colossal number have a drug dependency problem.
Often their partner has left and/or their children have gone off the rails.
Why?
It’s the Void. The inner drive that pushes you beyond the pain that other humans aren’t willing to endure...
To get to the next level. And the next. And the next.
It’s your life force, sense of purpose, and fuel for creativity…
But, when you can’t “shut it off,” it’s destructive; costing you your health, your family, your relationships, and sometimes, your sanity.
For example...
How have your partner and children been getting along?
Do your staff love you?
Do you love them?
If you died tomorrow, what would they say in the obituary about you?
Would all of your efforts really be acknowledged, or would some people be saying “What was the point? I never saw him!"
We spend our entire lives chasing money only to find, on our deathbed, it wasn’t what we were looking for. In the end, the Greats don’t lament: “I wish I made more money.”
They say: “I wish I spent more time with my family…” “I wish I took care of my body…”
“I wish I could do it over again.”
Most leaders have a sense this is happening, but they don’t know what to do about it. They feel like they don’t have time, or are even afraid to stop and take a look. And, even worse, many are bewildered that having achieved so much that society admires, they still have that emptiness inside.
They tolerate the way it “has to be.” They gather more wealth but are left unsatisfied…
When life can truly be extraordinary.
Because, when you harness that drive, it no longer drives you. You take control of your life in a new way. The Void is filled when you understand where it comes from, where you are at, and what’s important to you.
Then, you step into a life of true contentment. You feel lighter. Clearer.
You unleash a new level of creativity and leadership. You FEEL successful. You like yourself more, you’re more likeable.
And…you become a better leader, partner, parent, lover.
Completely Transformed.
That’s why we created this retreat. To help leaders like you harness that drive and LEAD THROUGH THE VOID into a life of confidence, contentment, and control.
