A transformation, not a curriculum
Your Launch Year will initiate you into three pathways of transformation: animation, co-creation, and liberation. Each one moves you from where you begin to what you sense is possible. It’s a journey, together, from fear to flourishing.
As you move through them, you’ll grow into higher versions of yourself.
It will feel like flying.
Animation
There's a vitality that runs through all of us—an electrical pulse of aliveness. We call it animation because it breathes life into us. It transforms your energy from feeling dwindled to kindled.
When you reconnect with what animates you, it calls you toward something higher—and becomes a gift to others.
Animation isn't something you acquire - it's something you reconnect with. During your Launch Year, you'll:
Design your days around animating questions
Create learning opportunities and find mentors to explore what animates you
Develop your intuition to discern what is truly calling you – not what you think you “should” pursue

Co-Creation
There's a place within each of us that's capable of imagining and inventing. It moves you from isolation to collaboration, from consumption to creation, from critique to contribution.
When you co-create, you dive in and work with others to create an emerging future we all want to inhabit.
You don't just experience The Flight School—you shape it. During your Launch Year, you'll:
Notice what the community needs, and bring new ideas to life
Lead sessions around questions and ideas that matter to you
Join projects like reimagining the application process, storytelling on social media, co-designing courses, interviewing guest speakers, and more

Liberation
Many current paradigms - about success, happiness, money—are not serving life. We scroll through headlines that stir endless fear, forgetting we're also capable of stirring love. Liberation is the courage to choose what’s alive over what’s expected – moving from fearful to free.
Liberation isn't something you do alone—it's something we practice together. During your Launch Year, you'll:
Reclaim your attention and direct it toward what truly matters
Reexamine paradigms that limit us
Learn from people creating new paradigms and expanding possibilities for themselves, and the world
