1. Community Connector Course (10 hours Free)

☕ Connect with yourself and others in more meaningful ways?

☕ Learn how to become a Community Connector @ Life Cafe!

2. The Meaning Path (30 hours $10 per 1hr session)

☕ We live in a meaning crisis - not because meaning is gone, but because we’ve forgotten how to make it.

☕ 95% of your mind runs unconsciously. It’s not broken. It’s waiting - for you to listen, descend and reclaim it.

☕ Learn the art of meaning-making - 30 weeks of deep insight, practical tools and meaningful discussion @ Life Cafe.
