From the wisdom of the earth to the rhythm of the trail, we’re highlighting sessions that offer practical roadmaps for aligning your life’s work with your deepest values.
Experience a 3Practice Circle Deep Dive, a structured, disciplined conversation tool designed to build clarity and community across deep differences. Guided by referees Jim Henderson—a serial entrepreneur, author, and organizational leadership coach whose work on crossing the difference divide has been featured on This American Life—and Jim Hancock—a veteran designer of experience-based learning and author of over a dozen books—the session features a live “3Practice Circle.” Rather than a traditional panel, you will experience a practical communication tool that attendees can directly apply to your own spiritual communities, classrooms, families, and organizations.
In an age of “full consumer commitment,” finding work and community that aligns with your values can feel like an impossible climb. In Discernment for a Just World, interfaith educator Matt Hartley offers a roadmap for young adults and seekers alike to live with a clear conscience. This workshop moves beyond typical leadership lessons, exploring how we can unbind our daily lives from the status quo and tune them toward justice and solidarity. Join us to discover how collective wisdom can help us co-create a world where our work isn’t just about maintenance, but transformation.
Nature has spent 3.8 billion years perfecting the art of resilience, and it’s time we took notes. In Activism & Biomimicry: How to Build Resilient and Regenerative Movements Using Life’s Principles, researcher and outreach coordinator Beth Remmes explores how the “conscious emulation of nature’s genius” can transform our activism. This workshop moves beyond theory into practice, using games and group discussions to help you apply biological strategies to your own projects and communities. Join us to find a common language for caring for the Earth that transcends religious and political divides, building a movement that—like nature itself—is designed to thrive.
Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or a soul seeking a mental reset, the ancient “yellow arrows” of the Camino de Santiago offer a unique path to transformation. In Buen Camino 101: Hard-Won Lessons on the Camino de Santiago, retired pastor, justice advocate, and Wild Goose founder Robin Fillmore shares the practical “how-to” and the deeper “why” of this 500-mile pilgrimage. This session explores the inner landscape of the journey—the profound lessons in simplicity, resilience, and human connection that emerge when your only job is to put one foot in front of the other. Join us to discover how this historic pathway can become a catalyst for your own personal change and learn how to take that very first step.
The path winds. The soul stirs. Come to Wild Goose ready to move, listen, and—just maybe—change.
