The Studio is an online program, designed for as little screen time as possible. With mobile-friendly audio, video and simple form components, you can participate in the Studio from anywhere.
For instance, by walking and listening to the online material, and reflecting on the contemplative and self-reflective questions, the participant can more fully translate and apply Living Systems knowledge to the different components of the business.
The program allows, both, to access content online independently, and to be guided via one-on-one sessions with Cascading’s Life-centered Strategist expert, Carolina Fdz-Jansink.
Through personalized curated content - to apply knowledge-, and experiences - to heighten knowing-, we simultaneously work towards inspiration and execution.
