Towards a Conscious,
Connected Humanity
We empower individuals & organizations to create a conscious, connected way of existing.
Take a deep breath with us. And then let it out. Imagine a more connected, harmonious world with us. What does that look like?
We have wondered why… being healthy, happy, and in peace is so hard in today’s world? Why are people so lost, emotionally disconnected, physically ill, and psychologically confused? Why is there so much division, war, and disconnection? Why is business and economic ‘success’ often at the expense of life, at the expense of our human and planetary well-being?
We believe in inner change for outer impact.
Most want change.
Few want to change.
We help lead change.
Now… imagine a world where everyone feels it is safe to be themselves, while still hoping to grow and evolve.
Where humans have the capacity and willingness to share our challenges with one another instead of fighting each other.
Imagine humans and nature living in sync.
Imagine businesses making beautiful profits while uplifting humanity and nurturing the planet and using its resources sustainably, not at the expense of them.
Imagine human beings enjoying life each day, sharing their gifts with the world, connected to a community, feeling healthy, capable, and in peace.
We believe this is possible. We empower individuals and our educational systems to become agents of change in our complex, ever-changing systems.
Individual Evolution for Collective Transformation
We foster self-awareness, emotional & relational intelligence to nurture integrated humans beings. And we sprinkle some creative problem-solving, critical thinking, and multidimensional leadership skills.
We integrate all parts of the human being for optimal inner teamwork. We acknowledge all parts of a human being in this human experience and make sure our lives make space for all of them.
Each course, workshop, and experience at The Self Academy is designed to challenge, inspire, and empower individuals and orgnanizations to step into their roles as architects of a conscious, life-affirming society and economy.
Community as a Key to Human Flourishing
How can we love each other more? Serious question. So many societal problems arise because of our inability to deal with pain. As simple and romantic as it seems, all human beings desire deep down is Love.
We teach people how to love each other by learning how to hold space, how to see, hear, and respect each other, how to foster the real human connection we all need to survive and thrive.
Our community fosters inclusivity and sustainability, aiming to cultivate not only informed citizens but evolved souls ready to contribute to a beautiful future. We support each other’s ever-changing life journeys and remember we are all ‘walking each other home.’
Our Philosophy: The Three Pillars of Power
We are co-creating a new paradigm of power. Our methodology is bases on a simple and powerful research-backed truth: Lasting change flows from the inside out.
Rooted in Jungian depth-psychology, MIT’s Theory U, and contemporary adult-development science, our framework develops three distinct intelligences, inner, relational, and spiritual, so leaders thrive at every level.
POWER WITHIN – Inner Intelligence
Power Within refers to self-leadership: the inner mastery of one’s emotions, mind, and values. It is ability to meet one’s own “emotions, shadows, and truth” and stand in one’s inner authority.
- Presence & Regulation – Emotional intelligence which includes mindfulness, self-awareness, self-regulation in order to create inner safety.
- Wholeness & Authenticity – Integration of parts, including the shadow, and feminine-masculine integration – to achieve self-compassion and self-acceptance.
- Discernment & Action – Aligning to an inner compass you can trust, with critical sense-making, to develop your personal integrity, motivation, and discipline.
Turning inward, with honesty and courage, to turn outward, with clarity and care.
POWER BETWEEN – Relational Intelligence
The Power Between it is about how we lead in connection with the world, since “nothing exists in isolation” and leadership is fundamentally about the quality of our communication, boundaries, and trust with those around us.
- Authentic, Assertive Communication – Truly hearing each other requires empathy, deep listening, assertiveness, tact, and emotional intelligence.
- Compassion & Humility – To create safety, navigate tension, and restore trust, our ego must pause and create space for the other to co-exist, across gender or culture.
- Interdependence & Co-Creation – Needing each other is beautiful and makes more possible. Tapping into this power of creation makes so much more possible
Beautiful possibilities are born in the space in between.
POWER BEYOND – Spiritual Intelligence
Power Beyond expands leadership to legacy and systemic impact: aligning with a purpose greater than oneself so that one becomes a conduit for something beyond you… where power moves into action, service, and legacy.
- Future Sensing & Systems Seeing – The ability to connect dots across the board and use your imagination to create the future you want to see.
- Courageous Entrepreneurship & Service – Becoming a resourceful an agent of life-affirming entities and systems who fails forward with purpose and ethical impact.
- Stewardship & Surrender – When the ego is surrendered, you become a vessel for something larger than yourself, a collective intelligence and web we are all a part of.
The Power Beyond is the moment the Self remembers it was never separate.
Our mission is to co-create an emotionally mature, relationally, spiritually intelligent world, contributing to the evolution of the consciousness of the collective psyche.
