VisionLegacy
Workshops
My workshops are designed to
be experiences in transformative learning. Through a variety of interactive, reflective and experiential experiences, you
will tap into the collective wisdom of the group and emerge energized with clarity about what's next. An ideal introduction
to my work.
Current workshop themes include:
- Creative in Chaos: Thriving
in Uncertain Times (A workshop for those who are overwhelmed with the implications of our current economic collapse).
- What's Needed in These Times?
(A workshop for leaders in the 'Great Turning')
- Transforming Leadership (A workshop for emerging leaders who are stepping onto the stage
of their own leadership)
- The Real
Sustainability Issue: Your Own Fire (A workshop for sustainability leaders who want to protect themselves and their
organizations from potential burn-out)
I
am available to do half or full day workshops on the above themes for your group or organization. I am also available to help
your organization move through critical issues into action through especially designed workshops, strategic planning and structured
board retreats. Please contact me!

Retreats
My
retreats offer you the opportunity to leave behind the stresses and pressures of everyday life and come into 'spirit time'
- so that you can 'come home' to yourself, stretch out, tap into deep sources of creativity and inner wisdom, and leave replenished
and clear about the next stage of your journey.
My
current retreat themes include:
- Blossoms
in Autumn: A Retreat for Women in Mid-life & Mid-Purpose

for solopreneurs who can't find the time to... [fill in the blank!]

Times

A Retreat for World-Changers

in the Dark: A Midwinter Retreat for Wise Women

weekend retreats. I am available to design a retreat specifically for a group of your friends, colleagues or a private solo
retreat just for you! Please contact me!

What do workshop & retreat participants say? "I loved the embodied, arts-based nature
of the workshop and your spacious and wise facilitation. It really flowed.”
“I came to this workshop with curiosity and openness, and I am taking with me new-found insight
and energy to embody the leader that I already am. Thank-you, Marilyn! “Marilyn's
session helps stir and awaken inside you the leader you already are.” "Thank
you so much for yesterday. It was a truly lovely experience ... I really appreciated the way you led us into a creative process
and inspired the creative impulse. It was a magical, emergent process, and I loved the long stretches with music to move us
into a meditative artistic state. I could get quite addicted to these kinds of offerings as I found I just wanted to soak
it all up. There was a perfect balance in the day between inner work and participation with others — very spacious,
nothing forced. It was such a wonderful experience. BIG thanks!" "Marilyn - great workshop with so much powerful information!
I was really struck by your passionate commitment to supporting leaders in knowing themselves well enough to prevent the result
of burnout. I took it all in and know that your info will support me in watching myself and in how I coach other leaders around
this. THANK YOU!"

What's the difference between a workshop, teleclass
and retreat? How should you choose?
The purpose of a workshop is to help you grapple with critical
issues, learn competencies and gain important information, insights and perspectives within the context of those who share
similar questions, goals and values. While the structure of a good
workshop is flexible and responsive to the participants' needs, it is nonetheless defined by the workshop leader and generally
has particular objectives or outcomes. Group and individual exercises, individual reflection and experiential learning are
often involved. A workshop is your best choice when you'd like a structured experience to discuss, explore and learn with
like-minded participants. The purpose of a teleclass series is to provide a ongoing structure
and momentum for specific growth or learning experiences. Each week we explore - through discussion, experiential exercises
and focused homework - different aspects of a learning issue. Each module is designed to build upon the previous ones in a
way to maximize commitment, learning and action-steps.
The purpose of a retreat is to reconnect with your deeper
self, to step out of the busy currents of one's life, and to come home what most deeply matters - one's questions, one's deep
knowing, one's creativity and wisdom. While a retreat may be structured around particular themes and experiences, it is the
job of the facilitator to direct the participants inward towards their own experience, rhythms, knowing and direction. Journalling,
creative processes, ritual, movement, powerful questions and time to reflect and reconnect with oneself are often involved.
A retreat is your best choice when you need time apart to replenish and reconnect with the deeper sources of your own heart,
creativity and wisdom.
