Glenorchy, New Zealand

[BY PRIVATE INVITATION ONLY]

Why Now?

A world moving faster than we’re built for.

Not another wellness retreat. Not a mindset hack. This is a full-system reset.

After 30 years and some 40,000 hours of coaching, facilitating, and decoding what drives human behaviour - one thing is clear: We are approaching an evolutionary threshold.

We’re no longer fit for the systems we’ve created. This isn’t just a tech revolution. It’s a turning point in human evolution. The more we disconnect from our true relational nature, the more we lose ourselves in the very world we’ve engineered.

The Human Alchemy Immersive is the opportunity to reclaim and develop what makes us distinctly human: presence, awareness, the ability to consciously choose, feel, attune, and evolve.

The rise of AI and exponential tech is reshaping how we live, work, connect, and lead. The pace is accelerating. The pressure is unrelenting. And most of us are still running internal software not built for this world. This isn’t a mindset issue. It’s a system overload.

Attention is fractured. Presence has become rare. Connection feels fragmented. Consciousness is a lost art.

If you’re an accomplished founder, entrepreneur, or leader in life today, many are carrying an invisible load:

  • Chronic stress that doesn’t ease with a weekend off

  • A nervous system stuck in “on,” even when you log off

  • Decision fatigue and mental clutter from relentless input

  • Disconnection from self, family, or deeper purpose

  • Leading through complexity while feeling unclear inside

  • A body bearing the weight of ambition, even as the mind pushes on

  • Success that should feel good - but somehow doesn’t

  • A quiet knowing that something deeper is calling

What We Are Dealing With

Let’s be real…

Even the most high-functioning people are buckling under invisible pressure.

We’ve built a world that moves faster than our biology can process. AI is accelerating. Complexity is compounding. But our internal operating systems - still wired for threat, scarcity, and control - haven’t kept pace. We’re no longer fit for the systems we’ve created. And unless we evolve from within, we risk becoming obsolete inside the world we built.

The constant flood of data, demands, and digital distraction is diluting our ability to tend to the innate human need our ancestors honoured: to evolve consciously, in deep connection with ourselves, each other, and the world.

To thrive in what’s next, we don’t need more tools - we need a new template - a whole-human system upgrade.

The Opportunity

3 days. 10 people. 1 human upgrade.

This isn’t a program you consume. This isn’t about learning to lead better. It’s a living process you move through - rooted in science, grounded in wisdom, shaped by nature, and designed for the human you’re becoming by rewiring how you live, lead, and relate.

Held at The Headwaters Eco Lodge - a regenerative sanctuary at the edge of silence - this immersive interrupts default patterns, restoring coherence between your inner world and the outer one you’re shaping. It’s about remembering how to live truer. To remove the noise. To tune in. Slow down. And reconnect with your Self.

You won’t just experience Human Alchemy.

You will help shape what it becomes.

The Difference

You are not a mindset. Or a goal. Or a leadership type.

You are a full-spectrum human: a nervous system wired by experience; a body storing memory; a sensor in constant dialogue with your environment.

This immersive works across four dimensions: Story & Identity; Nervous System & Biology; Environment & Perception; Meaning & Integration.

It’s not self-improvement. It’s whole-human transformation.

The Arc

What you will move through.

You will walk a deliberate arc: From automation → to awareness → to authorship.

The Experience

  • Begin where all true change starts: the nervous system. Recalibrate through breath, movement, and somatic reset.

  • Trace the patterns behind your reactions, thoughts, and emotional loops—then gently rewire what no longer serves.

  • Step into spaciousness. Let stillness, scale, and nature reframe how you see yourself and your place in it all.

  • Curated moments to soften your grip on what you think is true - so something more honest can surface.

  • Unearth the stories you’ve inherited or absorbed - and begin to author from a deeper, truer source within.

What You Will Leave With

  • A more grounded, regulated system - mind, body, and emotion

  • Renewed clarity and connection to self, others, and what matters

  • Tools to move through complexity with grace and discernment

  • A glimpse of what it means to lead from coherence, not chaos

  • Early access to a pioneering methodology - and the chance to shape it

Founders Circle

You’re not just attending the first Human Alchemy Immersive.

You’re helping shape what it becomes.

As part of the Founders Circle, you will:

  • Experience the full 3-day immersive at The Headwaters Eco Lodge

  • Offer feedback to refine a methodology grounded in decades of behavioral science and real human experience

  • Contribute to the early legacy of the Human Development Institute - a next-generation education model exploring how we live, lead, and grow in today’s world

This isn’t the final product. It’s the working prototype of a methodology already years in the making.

I’m inviting 10 founding participants to experience the very first Human Alchemy Immersive - and to help shape the future of a movement designed to transform how we evolve, live, and lead ourselves.

This isn’t just a retreat. This is the first expression of a bigger vision for Human Development. A space to experience the work - and help influence what it grows into.
