Are you…

experiencing change and transition in your career?

at a crossroads in life, unsure of the path ahead?

hungry for deeper alignment to purpose and ready to step into your highest self?


Good news — you’re not alone.


Times of transition are often maligned in our culture. We feel such pressure for certainty, constant movement, and direction that we may feel a sense of shame or unworthiness for being in an in-between space where we don't really know what is coming next.

But there is a sacredness — and a power — to these liminal spaces. If we can muster up the courage to be with and face all that which the experience of transition brings up for us, we can shake off old patterns, let go of limiting beliefs, open to our authenticity, and take bold action to align our outer life circumstances with the inner call of our souls.

Starlight Leadership's Liminality & Transition Retreat is designed for entrepreneurs, visionaries, and leaders who are willing to examine old structures, patterns and beliefs, shake loose of old ways of being, and step into their most exquisite lives. If you are a leader in transition looking to access more of your inner knowing and reconnect to your sense of purpose, this retreat is for you.

How to know you’re in a liminal state:

  • You may feel “between” two worlds or states 

  • You are experiencing a great deal of change and feel stuck

  • You have feelings of loss around how things were but are unsure of how to let it go and move forward 

  • You feel excited about future possibilities, but overwhelmed around what direction to take

  • You feel ready for a change but not sure how to take action towards that change

Enrollment deadline: March 17, 2023

Testimonials

My retreat with Starlight was, to put it simply, a profoundly beautiful and life-changing experience. Brooks has a huge heart, immense wisdom, and an ability to collaborate with the natural world to create situations where growth, insight, and deep healing can occur. I also had a ton of fun in a really beautiful area and made some lifelong friendships. I will definitely make a retreat with Brooks an annual ritual.
— Conlan O'Leary, Co-Founder/CEO @ Sighten
Conscious Leadership has helped me develop skills and provided frameworks to become a more empathetic, confident, and effective leader. Joyce is a very skilled and caring coach and fostered a safe space to share openly, build relationships, reflect and practice the commitments so we can confidently action our learnings in both our professional and personal lives. As a result I am more reflective, focused, empowered, and curious to continue learning and investing in my own self-awareness.
— Catherine Ray, VP Design @ Disney
My program with Starlight rocked me in the best way possible. A complete spiritual, physical and emotional journey that helped me be in connection with nature, my fellow humans, and my soul. Brooks’ facilitation was second to none, he’s the perfect guide for someone who wants to go deeper into themselves whilst going deeper into nature.
— Matt Hunter, Co-Founder @ Turnstyle Solutions, Executive Coach
Joyce’s coaching has been invaluable! She is NOT your basic business consultant/coach. She has an incredible gift to quickly get to the core issue - while simultaneously understanding complex business challenges, context, and goals. She is a coach, therapist, motivational speaker, and pragmatist all wrapped into one. If you want to learn how to harness your inner talents to be a leader others want to follow, work with Joyce!
— Tracy Avelar, Global Head of Sourcing @ Meta
The magic of Brooks is he has a CEO’s brain and a rabbi’s soul.
— Joe Greenstein, Founder/CEO @ Flixter, Co-Founder @ Leaders In Tech
Joyce is not ‘great’ - Joyce is ‘great and also the absolute best I could imagine’. I’ve never engaged with a leader who was so skillful in facilitating open, vulnerable dialogues that consistently lead to significant breakthroughs for participants (myself and others).
— Josh Cleveland, Brand Strategy @ Meta
