Cultural Mentoring Series
with Jon Young, Mark Morey and the 8 Shields Team

C O U R S E   I S   F U L L

In response to many requests from you, the people who make this work happen, we have decided to consolidate Mind of Mentoring and Mentoring Nature Connection into one.

It has become clear that the information from both these weeks is valuable and that many people were having a hard time deciding which program to attend. We also were feeling the need to bring these two programs together as they weave so beautifully with one another.

We will still offer all the nuts and bolts behind the 8 shields model. In addition, for those of you who are wanting more depth of experience in actually mentoring nature connection with young people, there will be break out sessions offering just that with experienced nature mentors.

Thank you to everyone who shared their needs whether financial, energetic, or timely. We hope to see you August 29-September 4.

This 1-day workshop offers you a high-value gateway to the essence of the unique and transformative Ecology of Leadership model.  Throughout this rich day, you will have opportunities to explore the core principles and practices of the EOL approach for yourself – engaging leadership development through the integration of deepened self-awareness and connection to the natural world, coupled with principles of regenerative systems thinking and permaculture design. This workshop is for you if you want to step more powerfully into your gifts and passions and onto your path of service in the world.
