A Summer of Small Experiments Begins
What Happens When You Design Your Life?
This summer, a quiet revolution begins—one small experiment at a time.
Malcolm Gladwell once described transformation not as a tidal wave but as a tipping point—a series of subtle shifts that culminate in something profound. That's the spirit behind our first official launch at Mindful Studio. It's not about overhauling your life overnight. It's about stacking deliberate, gentle experiments until the landscape changes.
The Life Design Practice Series:
"We learn who we are by testing hypotheses, not reciting mantras."
In behavioral science, there's a simple truth: you don't think your way into a new life—you live your way into new thinking. Our new Life Design Practice Series was built on that premise. It's a guided journey through The Mindful Method, a six-element framework that blends mindfulness, behavioral research, and design thinking.
It's not therapy. It's not hustle culture. It's a practice—for your life.
Each session invites you to slow down, notice patterns, run small experiments, and uncover meaning through action.
In a world addicted to certainty, this is a practice of curious ambiguity.
Launching The Change Lab
"The group is a living system, not a set of tasks to manage." — Margaret Wheatley.
In complexity theory, systems adapt in unpredictable ways when enough variables shift. The Change Lab is our experiment in creating just such an adaptive space—for individuals, teams, and leaders who are ready to engage with change as a transformative process.
It's not a classroom. It's not a retreat.
It's a living, breathing practice for what's next.
Inside, you'll find live and recorded sessions, real-time coaching, and collective discovery—all grounded in the belief that the best answers emerge between people, not from them.
Life Design in South Austin
"The body knows before the mind does."
There's something poetic about gathering as a community to explore life at a local library. Beginning Monday, June 30 at 6:15 PM, we're starting donation-based Life Design classes at Twin Oaks Public Library.
These aren't lectures. They're practice grounds for clarity.
A gentle blend of breathwork, writing, shared insight, and deep listening.
It's summer. It's low stakes. It's surprisingly life-changing.
Weekly on Mondays at 6:15 - 7:45 PM
Twin Oaks Public Library, Room #2
1800 S 5th St, Austin, TX 78704
Donation-based, RSVP on Eventbrite
Facilitator Training Begins This July
"Leadership, at its core, is the courage to go first."
Why do some people become change agents while others stay frozen? According to Ron Heifetz, adaptive leadership begins when you stop solving problems for others—and start helping them solve their own.
Our Facilitator Certification kicks off this July for those ready to guide others through the Life Design process. It's not about being an expert. It's about becoming skilled in presence, practice, and permission-giving.
Perfect for coaches, educators, team leads, and therapists who are done with burnout and ready to lead differently.
The Life Design Workbook—Now on Amazon
"Writing is thinking. Thinking is noticing."
Some tools change lives not because they offer answers but because they ask better questions.
The Life Design Workbook is that kind of tool—a companion for everyday experimentation.
Use it solo, with friends, or inside The Change Lab to track micro-shifts in thought, energy, and action.
Now available in paperback or Kindle format.
