How does hope arise within us, and what sustains it through difficulty?
The Invitation
Over a long weekend at a chateau tucked away in a beautiful Burgundy forest, we invite you to journey with us through the consciousness of hope: the radical and transformative act of claiming possibility.
Hope is the seed from which stories germinate, and stories, in turn, are the transformative force that shapes the course of humanity. We need new stories to rally around more than ever.
The hope we dare to have creates narratives, whether rooted in reality or woven from the fabric of imagination, that serve as powerful conduits for purpose and direction.
