.
The Shift from Fear to Love is a live event, a mission, a movement, and a growing community. It activates us, personally and collectively, to lead with Love and liberate from Fear.
It is a growing community of rising leaders that share:
1. A common mission to personally and collectively shift from fear to love.
2. An awareness that: our inner challenges and our world’s problems are rooted in fear; healing & sustainable solutions are aligned with love; and we each have the leadership capacity to shift from fear to love with every breath, thought, choice, action, and contribution.
3. A dedication to unleash our greatest leadership contributions, each shifting the world from fear to love in our own unique way.
.
The purpose of the Live Event is to liberate your next level of leadership contribution, as we come together to shift ourselves and our world from fear to love.
The Vision for the Live Event includes many collaborative elements that will be woven together into a transformative, artful, improvisational, engaging experience on-stage. Whether you are on-stage or in the audience, you will experience personal transformation and community-building. Your full presence will naturally contribute to The Shift from Fear to Love.
We will begin our 4-hour experience creating a heightened state of love and liberation–weaving in the power of music, dance, singing, spoken word, meditation, guided visualization, and communal intention. You will then be invited into transformational experiences–a collage of journaling, partner work, open forum sharing, spotlight coaching, and improvisational creativity. Everything will be by choice where you decide how deeply you’re ready to engage.
.
Ticket Sales & Free Membership are open to all rising leaders.
