You’re in the process of becoming something new.
At some point, the life you’ve built – the roles you’ve played, the identities you’ve worn, the path you’ve followed – no longer fits in quite the same way.
The question isn’t whether change is coming.
The question is: Who will you become because of it?
Maybe you’re standing at a crossroads: a career chapter is closing. A relationship is shifting. A long-held identity is falling away.
Or perhaps you simply feel the quiet ache of “something more” calling from just beyond the horizon.
These thresholds can bring uncertainty, grief, even fear. But they also carry the seeds of possibility – an invitation to reimagine what fulfillment and purpose mean to you now.
Join us in Baja or Santa Fe for a transformative experience that will help you find your bearings, illuminate what’s next, and chart a path toward a life that brings you joy.

After 20+ years as a CEO I was burnt out and had no vision or energy for my next chapter. One week in Baja reenergized me and I emerged with an inspired vision for my 50s, 60s and beyond.

4-Day Intensive
Rising Circle Ranch, Santa Fe | Starting 2026
A focused, energizing reset.
Our four-day intensives deliver the full Navigating Transitions curriculum in an accelerated, immersive format. With less downtime between sessions, you’ll experience a close-knit group dynamic while still having space to relax and enjoy the ranch. It’s a rich, concentrated exploration of what’s next.
The MEA Method is backed by social science, proven by years of research & implementation
Our Navigating Transitions workshops are built around our proven MEA Method, which has been designed in collaboration with academics from Stanford, Harvard, UC Berkeley, and Yale, who have dedicated themselves to understanding modern midlife.
Together we’ve developed and refined experiential processes that combine the social science of longevity and the art of intentional living to help people in midlife curate a second adulthood that’s as joyful, deep, and meaningful as it is long.
Guided by world-class faculty who’ve walked this path themselves
Our handpicked facilitators are highly trained professionals who are all midlifers themselves and have been extensively trained in the MEA Method. They have all navigated their own periods of reinvention and bring a wealth of experience in helping others create their fulfilling next chapter.
