Jumpstart Your Next Chapter: Finding Purpose, Passion, and a New Path

September 29, 2026 10:00 AM PT 01:00 PM ET

Join this live conversation with Marci Alboher and Kerry Hannon, two leading voices on reinvention, meaningful work, and navigating change in midlife and beyond. They’ll explore how to turn a feeling of restlessness – or a long-held idea – into a clearer, more purposeful direction.

Marci and Kerry will share themes from their upcoming Santa Fe Jumpstart Your Next Chapter workshop, including how to identify what matters most, draw on your experience in new ways, and explore possibilities that balance purpose, passion, and practical needs. Whether you’re considering a career shift, retirement, entrepreneurship, or a new creative pursuit, this conversation will offer inspiration and useful next steps.

Learn more about their workshop, Jumpstart Your Next Chapter: Finding Purpose, Passion, and a New Path, happening December 3–6 in Santa Fe.

Wild Resilience: Build a Steadier Mind and Body You Trust

October 8, 2026 11:00 AM PT 02:00 PM ET

What if resilience isn’t about gritting your teeth, powering through, or becoming tougher than the next hard thing?

Seven-time world champion endurance athlete Rebecca Rusch and clinical psychologist, Marine Corps veteran, and fellow athlete Dr. Jaimie Lusk have both learned – through loss, injury, recovery, service, and time far beyond their comfort zones – that the body often knows something the mind hasn’t yet caught up with.

In this live conversation with host Derek Gehl, they’ll explore what happens when we stop treating our limits as failures. They’ll talk about fear versus danger, the stories we bring to challenge, the surprising intelligence of movement, and how time outdoors can help us find a steadier way forward.

Join them for an honest, wide-ranging conversation—and a first look at their May workshop, Wild Resilience, at Rising Circle Ranch in Santa Fe.

Living Your Legacy: Align How You Lead, Love, and Live With What Matters Most

October 15, 2026 10:00 AM PT 01:00 PM ET

Legacy isn’t simply something we leave behind. It’s something we create every day through how we lead and love, how we respond under pressure, the relationships we cultivate, the choices we make, and ultimately, how people experience us.

Join Paragon Performance Evolution co-founders Jeff Benton and Brett Weinroth for a candid conversation about what changes when we stop treating legacy as a distant outcome and begin paying closer attention to how we’re living right now.

Over the past decade, Jeff and Brett have worked with some of the world’s highest performers – from entrepreneurs and family enterprises to corporate leaders, professional athletes, Special Forces, global first ladies, and astronauts. Across remarkably different lives, they’ve seen a common question emerge:

What might change if we brought the same intention to how we live that we’ve brought to everything we’ve built?

Together, they’ll explore what it means to become more present in our lives, why we can know what matters most and still struggle to live in alignment with it, and how the ordinary choices we make in our relationships, leadership, and moments of pressure shape who we are becoming.

Jeff and Brett will also share more about Living Your Legacy, a six-month MEA experience beginning in January 2027. Through two in-person retreats at Rising Circle Ranch, private coaching, and monthly cohort gatherings, participants will have the space, support, and community to explore what matters most now, what may be getting in the way, and how to live the next chapter with greater intention.
