the land knows what you forgot
Let go of the inbox and pick up a paddle, a picnic basket, or a goat brush. Whether your team is burnt out or just overdue for face time, our workshops offer a reset without the awkward icebreakers.
Move, laugh, stretch, explore—and walk away more aligned, more aware, and more ready to take on what’s next.
