The Life Design Cohort: 12 Month Virtual Group for Women

Most of us can describe what we do. Far fewer of us can say, with confidence, who we are.

The Life Design Cohort takes the work of the Life Design Intensive and stretches it across a full year, done alongside a small group of 5-8 women. You’ll name your unique design, practice living from it, and leave with a personalized toolbox and a simple system to keep stewarding it for years to come.

This might be a good next step for you if...

  • You can’t yet confidently name your gifting, your passions, and your values

  • You sense there’s more in you and would like help exploring it

  • You feel stuck, or out of alignment, and can’t figure out why

  • You are looking for an experience that goes beyond just career and helps you steward your whole life well

  • You want ongoing support and the company of other women, not just a one-time experience

  • You want tools you can keep using long after the year is over

What you’ll name and define

Over twelve months, you’ll work through the Life Design toolbox, giving name to your:

  • Core Competencies: what you’re genuinely gifted at

  • Core Passions: what moves and energizes you

  • Core Values: what you stand for, and where your daily life is out of step with it

  • Life Contribution Statement: what is yours to offer

  • Self-Care Rhythms: what you need to stay healthy and whole

  • Life-Giving Relationships: which relationships are worthy of your investment

From there, you’ll take inventory of every area of life, create a holistic long-term vision, and look honestly at the barriers and “life lies” that stand in your way. The year closes with reflection and planning, so you move into the future aligned to your unique design.

How it works

We meet virtually on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of most months. In June, July, November, and December, we meet on the 2nd Thursday only. The first gathering on each topic is primarily instructional. The second is a space for group sharing as we work through the exercises together. Every session is recorded and sent out, so if you have to miss one, you won’t miss the content.

In 2027 there will be two Life Design Cohorts:

  • Group 1: 9-10 AM, MT

  • Group 2: 12-1PM, MT

Each month, you’ll receive a PDF guide, along with online tools (in Google Docs) that you’ll fill in and use in your day-to-day life. They’re yours to keep when the year is over.

What’s included

  • 20 virtual gatherings

  • A monthly PDF guide with content and instructions

  • Online tools you’ll personalize and keep

  • One 1:1 coaching session after May, where we look together at your work so far

  • A group WhatsApp for optional check-ins and ongoing support

  • A system for quarterly and annual check-ins after the year ends

  • Optional (additional) in-person gatherings for local Colorado women

The group is open to women anywhere. Additional 1:1 coaching or spiritual direction is available to members at my regular 1:1 rate.

Investment

The Life Design Cohort is a full-year commitment: $3,000 for twelve months.

  • Pay in full up front: $2,750 (one month free)

  • Pay monthly: $250/month for 12 months

Because the group builds on itself, and the women in it are counting on each other, enrollment is for the full year. Monthly payments are a way to spread out the cost, not an option to opt out partway through. A $250 deposit reserves your spot and counts toward your January payment.

Apply by Monday, December 7. Spaces are limited to 5-8 women per group.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to have done a Life Design Intensive before?
No. The Cohort is a complete experience on its own, and you’ll begin at the beginning.

What if I can’t make a session?
Every gathering is recorded and sent out, so you’ll always have access to the content.

How much time will this take outside of the gatherings?
Plan on about 2-4 hours a month to work through the guide and tools.

What time are the gatherings?
There are 2 group options to choose from, Group 1: 9-10 AM, MT, or Group 2: 12-1PM, MT (Both on Thursdays).

Can I cancel if I’m paying monthly?
Enrollment is for the full year, and monthly payments can’t be paused or canceled. This is what makes it a safe, committed space for the whole group.

Can I get additional 1:1 support?
Yes. Coaching or spiritual direction is available to Cohort members at my regular 1:1 rate.
