The program includes group sessions, solo integration time, and shared meals; participation in all elements is encouraged but not mandatory.

The Company and facilitators will treat your information with care and will never share identifying details without consent.

In case of emergencies, contact info for local services and hosts will be provided.

We value safety, consent, and trust. Sharing in group spaces is optional, and what is shared will remain confidential unless express permission is given. Notes or anonymized reflections may be used for future training or program development.

Termination

You may cancel participation at any time by notifying the Company in writing. However, due to the nature of this experience, payments are non-refundable regardless of cancellation.

Travel & Logistics

Your lodging, meals, programming, and airport transfer are included.

Flights and travel insurance are your responsibility.
