Elevate your Leadership, Expand your Influence

In today’s world, change agents (aka coaches, consultants, trainers etc) don’t fail because they lack intelligence, skills, or strategy. They fail because they lack the tools to lead from the inside out AND to truly influence deep, lasting transformation.

The Inner Work of Conscious Convening is an interactive 2-hour immersive experience that equips you with the neuroscience and practical tools to transform your leadership from reactive to creative—so you can lead with clarity, connection, and influence, no matter the challenge. This is not another leadership training that just tells you what to do. This is an experience that will help you become the change agent you were meant to be.

At the workshop, you will learn how to:

Maximize Your Presence & Influence

Your ability to stay grounded under pressure is your most powerful leadership asset in today’s world.

Turn Stress, Self-Doubt & Reactivity Into Strength

Learn to transform stress cycles and inner resistance into opportunities for deeper impact and leadership presence.

Break Free From Costly Stress & Overwhelm

Interrupt the patterns of reactivity that are holding you back both relationally and financially—and step into sustained clarity and confidence.

Master Science-Backed Practices For Resilience

Use neuroscience, breathwork, and mindfulness to regulate your nervous system and access greater resourcefulness, creativity, and influence in high-stakes moments.

Turn Leadership Training Into A Transformational Experience

Go beyond information delivery and create deep, embodied learning that sticks.

Most Leadership Programs Teach Strategy.
This One Teaches Transformation.

Leadership isn’t just about what you do. It’s about who you are when you do it.

You cannot think your way into being a more influential change agent. You have to train your nervous system, expand your awareness, and embody the presence of a leader people want to follow.

This workshop blends the most powerful elements of neuroscience, mindfulness, breathwork, and inquiry, taught by xchange trained facilitators who have helped leaders at companies like Microsoft, Conscious Capitalism, LAZ Parking and Stanford University master the inner game of leadership.​

 

  • Most leadership trainings teach information. This one teaches transformation.
  • Most leadership courses are transactional and forgettable. This one is experiential and practical.
  • Most leadership trainings focus on strategies and behavior changes without the deeper level identity shift that’s required. This one helps you master the inner game.

This is NOT just another leadership workshop—it’s a hands-on, experiential transformation designed for change agents who want to go beyond intellectual learning and start embodying the leadership presence that drives real change.

Who This Is For ...

  • Change Agents (trainers, facilitators, coaches etc) who are interested in leading a deeper level (aka nervous-system level) of transformation with the groups and individuals they teach and train.

  • Leaders looking to have a better understand and experience of the neuroscience and nervous system practices to conscious influence (from the inside out).

If you’re ready to revolutionize the way you facilitate leadership development, this workshop will equip you with the tools, practices, and presence to lead true transformation.

“The Workshop brought me joy when I’ve been struggling to find it. I’m truly grateful for this time.”

“This experience changed how I show up in high-pressure situations. I used to react from stress—now I lead from presence.”

Chris M.

“This was more than a workshop. It was a wake-up call. I now have the tools to be the leader I want to be.”
