Shadow Shifter
How might we become protagonists of our own lives?
Two residential days built on four words: light, shadow, shift, capacity.
Nine challenges across two days, all of them hands-on — and some of them deliberately handed to the youngest people in the room to co-facilitate, because facilitation is a capacity too, and it is learned by doing it.
“When an object finds light, it creates a shadow. And we can change the shape of our own shadow through our actions.”
What shifts afterwards is small and specific. One participant's parents noticed he had started listening to them. Another wrote about failure, and about wanting to look at service without fear. Nearly everyone asked about helping to facilitate the next one.
Nine challenges, chosen with you.
The frame stays — light, shadow, shift, capacity — while the activities, the length, and how much your own young people co-facilitate are decided together beforehand. The first cohort's verdict was that two days weren't enough; longer versions are possible.
