The Courage & Renewal approach is premised on the notion that every person has access to an inner source of truth, named in various wisdom traditions as identity, true self, heart, spirit, or soul. This inner teacher is a source of guidance and strength that helps us find our way through life’s complexities and challenges. Gatherings informed by the Courage & Renewal approach give people a chance to listen to this source, learn from it, and discover its imperatives for their work and their lives.
This approach is distinguished by principles and practices intended to create a process of shared exploration—in retreats, programs and other settings—where people can find trustworthy space to nurture deep integrity and relational trust on which our lives depend. These principles and practices are grounded in CCR’s core values which spell out the foundational beliefs and intended purposes for our work with individuals, groups and organizations.
This program is capped at 32 participants. We encourage you not to wait until the registration deadline to register, as the program typically reaches full capacity before the deadline.
To honor every participant’s confidentiality, Foundations sessions are not recorded. We highly encourage you to check your calendar closely to be sure you can attend and participate in each session.
This offering is open to anyone with an interest in the Courage & Renewal approach and serves as a prerequisite for the Courage & Renewal Practicum and the Courage & Renewal Facilitator Preparation Program. Applications for the next available Courage & Renewal Practicum will be available to those who are interested upon completion of the Foundations Program.
The Foundations program consists of five 2-hour online sessions. Over the course of that time, you’ll join other purpose seekers, world changers, and institutional transformers to explore the foundations of the Courage & Renewal approach through short presentations, opportunities for individual reflection, small group sharing, and large group conversations.
