Re-imagining the "Annual Review"
At A²: Authentic Austin, we believe in approaching year-end reflection with intention and authenticity. As the year closes, we're often inundated with messages about achieving more, as if who we are isn’t already enough.
This season, instead of focusing on resolutions that stem from a sense of lack, we invite you to honor the gifts and values you already possess. High achievers know how to set goals and push boundaries, but finding peace in who we are is equally important.
Our Annual Reflection retreat isn’t about adding more to your plate. It’s an invitation to pause, reconnect with your true self, and lead from a place of wholeness. Reflect on what truly matters and discover clarity and alignment without the pressure of constant striving.
Join us to explore what’s possible when you start from “being” rather than “doing”. No hustle—just an opportunity for genuine connection and insight.
What you'll experience
- Gather Memories: We'll construct a timeline of your year to gain a clearer, more comprehensive view of your journey thorugh 2024.
- Learnings: We'll explore the celebrations and obstacles from the year, from a place of curiosity and self-compassion.
- Current Life: We'll reflect on our current life across a variety of dimensions to build a perspective on our overall well-being in this moment.
- Edit: All life comes with death. We'll reflect on our lives and make conscious edits to it, letting go of what no longer serves us.
- Looking Ahead: Through guided reflection, we will explore what a juicy vision for 2025 feels like for us. We'll ground into how we want to be, not just what we want to do.
- Letter to Self: We'll bridge the now and the future, honoring who we are now and sharing our hopes, dreams, and advice with our future selves.
💡 Through the retreat, we will alternate between deep, individual work and group sharing to foster connection and insight.
Who this is for
Founders, leaders, and curious people who care about living their life intentionally.
So, probably you. :)
