Sessions

Ninety minutes. Your business. Someone who’s done it.

Sessions run regularly, in person. Pick a station, bring your current step, and leave having done the work, not with a to-do list.

  • Up to three 90-minute sessions a day: 9:30am, 11:30am and 2pm
  • Small groups at every station, never a lecture
  • Book in the Workbench and bring your pinned step
