This three-day retreat, brought to you in collaboration by Conscious Revolution, Riverbird Clinic and Good Medicine Collective, invites leaders, visionaries, and change-makers ready to engage in the deep inner work required to lead in more inclusive, courageous, and heart-centered ways. This experience invites participants to look inward—not only to expand self-awareness and empathy, but to challenge and disrupt the stories we’ve inherited about leadership, power, identity, and equity.

Too often, conversations about equity remain at the surface—focused on external systems or polarizing stories while leaving internalized patterns untouched. This retreat offers a different path: one where inner transformation becomes the foundation for dismantling harmful narratives, and where leadership becomes a practice of ongoing self-inquiry, connection, and conscious disruption.

Through reflective exercises, somatic practices, group dialogue, and ketamine-assisted therapy, participants will explore how social conditioning, personal identity, and systemic inequities live within the body and mind. Together, we will uncover how these internalized stories shape how we lead, relate, and either uphold or interrupt dominant systems.

This retreat is not about getting it “right”—it’s about becoming more whole. By making space for curiosity, compassion, and discomfort, we create the conditions for lasting transformation—both personally and collectively.

Journey Within – Ketamine-Assisted Therapy at Riverbird
On day 2 of the retreat is a full-day, ketamine-assisted therapy session facilitated by Riverbird, part of the Good Medicine Collective in Portland. This experience is a powerful tool for personal and narrative disruption—helping participants move beyond rigid identity structures, conditioned beliefs, and deeply held emotional patterns.

Ketamine works by quieting the Default Mode Network—the part of the brain responsible for maintaining our sense of self and narrative continuity. When this network is quieted, it becomes possible to experience ourselves beyond the limiting stories we’ve inherited or internalized—stories shaped by systems of race, gender, class, and more.

In this expanded state of consciousness, participants can confront and soften long-held patterns of separation, protection, and control—opening space for healing, insight, and reintegration. This is the inner work that makes outer equity work authentic and potentially transformative.

Riverbird’s team will provide individualized clinical assessments, support throughout the session, and guided integration to help participants translate their experiences into conscious understanding and relational change.
