Helping people find their way.
Six peers. Organic conversation.
Go to CompassConversations.com and add yourself to the mailing list at the bottom of the page - we have big plans for supporting collaborative community and organic conversations from the heart. You can be part of it from the beginning!
Presence is the foundation of all we share. Our conversations are opportunities for us to learn from and with one another, sharing wisdom from our hearts without competition.
With priorities of connection and curiosity, we share conversations founded in the love of our craft, love of learning, and the love that is experienced when we share from our hearts.
The peers in this Community have discovered the profound joy of loving what we teach and teaching what we love. We are perpetual students of our own craft and constantly learning from the students we are honored to serve.
We discovered that people in general, including ourselves, tend to learn more deeply and efficiently when we feel a sense of camaraderie and belonging. This group of professionals came together to learn from and with each other.
Through our conversations of discovery, we hope that in some small way, we might contribute to your own personal discoveries.
The energy for this collaborative experiment has been building for years through our individual journeys. When we had the opportunity to meet each other in-person, something brand new was born...
Here in the Compass community, it’s our heartfelt commitment to share space in the spirit of discovery and non-judgment, so you may feel the touchstones of camaraderie and belonging within yourself.
