Monthly Themes: Being & Becoming + Zero to One

Each month, we’ll venture one layer deeper into the biggest questions of human existence: Why do I suffer? Where do we find meaning and purpose? Who and What am I?

The mothly themes are arranged so that we peel back the onion of our experience and reveal what is beyond our thoughts and beliefs. This is deep self-inquiry, a process that will uncover our essential nature and act as a MAP. This MAP will be a part of a tool set that can help you on your journey.

Each month there are 1-3 deep dives on the theme, and the Zero to 1 section offers bite-sized insights that take 1 minute to read.
