The Challenge

Three Struggles Smart People Face

If any of these resonate, you're in the right place:

1

The Spirituality Dilemma

You're having difficulty reconciling traditional religious ideas with the modern world. You feel that some of the time-honored ideas have value, but they are in serious need of updating.

2

The Self-Help Noise

You're drowning in productivity hacks, meditation apps, and wellness trends. But they aren't working for you. You want depth, rigor, and honesty, not wishful thinking, handwaving or sales pitches.

3

The Meaning Crisis

You feel that the world is just lunging from crisis to crisis in spite of unimaginable progress. Something's clearly missing — a globally shared yet personalizable understanding of meaning, purpose and hope.

"The unexamined life is not worth living," Socrates said. But in our age of information overload and spiritual confusion, how do you examine life without falling into either nihilism or irrationality?
