Getting stuck happens to the best of us
Everyone gets stuck —artists, writers, parents, organizations, leaders. The world is complex, demanding, and often unforgiving of taking time to think, reflect, and joyfully plan for life's hairiest problems. Sometimes it takes a little inspiration, play, and an outside perspective to rediscover your fire, ignite your creativity, or renew your sense of purpose in your work.

Utilizing metaphorical thinking, role reversal, visual thinking techniques, mind-mapping serendipity scouting, storytelling, and provocative question routines, we facilitate perspective-building experiences that foster empathy, creativity, critical reflection, and innovation.

03 / Reflect
Reflection stimulates innovation by fostering self-awareness, critical thinking, learning from experience, and creative problem-solving, thereby cultivating new habits of mind conducive to innovative thinking.

Moving from reflection to activation is crucial because it transforms insights gained through contemplation into tangible actions, driving real-world change, innovation, and the application of new habits of mind to practical situations.

The process moves at at pace you set. Activation occurs when you have uncovered new ways of thinking, practiced new routines, and set the course for a strategy that cultivates joy, ignites creativity, and renews your sense of purpose.
