exciting news! the team behind the Goal-Crafting Intensives has reworked a bunch of our material to create the Beyond Goals Intensive same 5h format with live chat-based coaching and your-own-pace-and-path vids/exercises intend.do/event/beyond-g…

the content we're overhauling, with a similar structure as before but a much more fluid & emotions-oriented vibe if you're familiar with the workshop, you'll already recognize this new vibe from our approach to the coaching; this update is to make the framework match that!

while the coaching has evolved, the framework was still in various ways stuck in a kind of methodical rationalist productivity frame 😅 that's where we were at when we first made the workshop. even as our definition of goal has always been fairly fluid:

Goal = recognizable desired state in the future, that causes you to act differently in the present so as to realize it. If... 🛣️ no recognizable state = "trajectory" 😣 not desired = "should" 👀 not future = "regret" ☁️ no action = "dream" 🤠 actions just for show = "signalling"

our focus is still on "what do I most deeply want and how can I move towards it?" ❤️‍🔥 NOT "why am I broken and how can I fix myself?" we CAN help you work on emotional blocks, but only if they're getting in the way, not because you need fixing!

the dunking on navel-gazing obsession with self-improvement is legit—that's a real failure mode 👉 you are already free, today, to experiment with living the life that calls to you. it's not gatekept by reaching a certain point of self-development

a @sighswoon classic:

to be clear, I'm not knocking sabbaticals or devoting yourself to self-love for a month or even a year or whatever just... don't put your life on hold! remember to regularly fuck around and Do Cool Shit too 🤸‍♀️🏗️

doing shit requires: 1. clarity about what shit you intend to do (or the advanced ability to spontaneously follow a big urge) 2. plans or at least next steps 3. ability to work with any resistance that might arise 4. ability to learn as you go & reorient if/when you get lost

and the four modules of this workshop are about that! we're still finalizing the names & frames, but this is the vibe :) so if you want to join us while we iterate on how to embody this vibe, come to a workshop Dec 30 or 31, or Jan 6 or 7 intend.do/event/beyond-g…

also it's Pay What You Want so if you're not sure if it'll be a good fit for you, you can show up and then pay us only if we blow your mind 🤯

also if you want more info, most of what's in this GCI meta-thread will be relevant to the new iteration of the workshops as well!

the Beyond Goals Intensive hosted by @IntendApp was extremely worth it and i highly recommend it. 5 hours flew by shockingly fast. i have more clarity in a number of areas, and many many wonderful things to follow up on. also it's on a pay-what-you-want model (more below)
