Designing Your Life
Clarity for your next chapter
The Designing Your Life (DYL) workshop supports you when you’re ready for something more; more clarity, more direction, and more fulfilment. You’ll learn to reconnect with what energises you, explore new possibilities, and design next steps that feel aligned with the life and work you want to create.
Developed at Stanford, the Designing Your Life methodology uses design-thinking tools to help you approach your life with curiosity, creativity, and practical problem-solving. Whether you’re exploring a new direction or simply want to live with more intention, DYL gives you a proven framework to move forward with confidence.

Who is it for?
We host the Designing Your Life for all workshop only once a year, an exclusive weekend bringing together a diverse group of professionals and founders ready to shape the next chapter of their careers and lives.
This immersive experience welcomes all genders and focuses on those in moments of career shift or transition, people ready to pause, reflect, and design new possibilities with purpose.
You’ll learn how to apply Design Thinking and Positive Psychology to your work and life.
Studies show that professionals who use positive psychology principles are 50% more likely to earn a promotion or find greater fulfillment in their careers.
This workshop is ideal for founders and experienced professionals with a growth mindset, ready to step back from the day-to-day, reconnect with what energizes them, and take inspired action toward what’s next.
