We have found that experienced facilitators are looking for a way to create a greater transformational shift in their clients. The shift that is being called for is within themselves. For one to transform others, they first must expand their own Consciousness, their Being and their Presence to be an open channel for wisdom to emerge. In "Illuminate: Facilitating Deep Transformation" (formally called FTV) each person's Presence and Being is transformed through learning the Work and by living it themselves. In small groups, we coach, mentor and nurture each person for them to step into their Greatness.
What makes a
"Facilitator of Transformation"?
A Facilitator of Transformation holds the space for profound transformation of their participants and the system.
A Facilitator of Transformation facilitates through holding intention, compassion and being of Service.
It requires a facilitator to let go of their egoic self needs and facilitate from Source; integrating IQ, EQ and SQ (spiritual intention).
The capabilities we develop in Illuminate are as follows:
Being

Connected to a Lineage of Ancient Wisdom and Thought Leaders
The power of this program is attributed to the lineage and essence upon which it has been founded.
We have integrated teachings from Ancient Wisdom along with the latest leadership research.
The wisdom sources include Gita Bellin, David Hawkins, Eckhart Tolle, Richard Barrett, John Demartini, among others. The content integrates several models such as Barrett 7 Levels of Consciousness, Theory U, Kegan's Adult Stages of Development, Anderson's Leadership Circle and Heifetz's Adaptive Leadership.
This accreditation program has been developed over a 5-year period in collaboration with one of the largest management consultancies and their global clients.

that facilitators are willing to do their own work.”

What have Participants said about our Mentors
Lisa Doig
"Lisa is truly masterful. She doesn’t just teach the Work, she embodies it. Even after all these years of facilitating, her passion and excitement remain undeniable. She has a remarkable ability to bring the material to life, and her storytelling, even though I've heard them 3-5 times already, continues to move me. I often find myself getting goosebumps, which speaks to how powerfully she connects the work to lived experience. Her presence gives the sense that what we’re learning isn’t just a methodology...it’s Truth."
"Lisa emits Love and Purpose. She truly wants each of us to be able to 'get' this journey. Whether it's through a look, a word, a hug, or even a chuckle, she'll provide what's needed for our growth. Her candour is such a breath of fresh air. All I sense was love in many forms, and I am so grateful for her presence, guidance and generosity."
Renu Burr
"Ancient wisdom brews inside you. You are a force of nature and earth. Your connection to body and soul and universe are transcendent. Trust that even in pain and suffering, there is creation and beauty."
"Renu, for me is Space. The way she leads the meditation, exercises, and presencing allows me to finally understand what SQ really means — especially that it's not something that can be understood at a 'head' level."
"Renu's presence and love through her calmness, attention and articulation of every word are indescribable. How she guides us through all the body work and SQ intentions as facilitators of transformations is perfection."
Malcolm Doig
"I absolutely love the energy Malcolm brings into the space. He has a unique ability to harmonise and balance the room with a blend of playful presence and groundedness. His embodiment of both masculine and feminine qualities is felt and appreciated; it contributes to a sense of emotional safety and openness. He brings a warmth and gentleness that makes it easier for participants to drop into the work."
"A beautiful soul, with a spark of a cheerful boy shining through his eyes. You brought lightness, playfulness and a deep sense of safety to the entire journey, qualities that made this intense process feel human, healing and accessible."
What our participants have said
Genuinely, the impact of this program has been life changing. I am constantly challenging myself to look at every moment in life with more clarity and more purpose, asking those key transformational questions. Its unique value is that it's not just an opportunity to expand one's own leadership but also those around us. It feels like because the core of the program has been built with the intention of going as wide and as far as possible, the opportunity for growth and impact of it also seems limitless.
Nilofar Shadman
At its heart, Illuminate sparks awareness of our individual and collective Consciousness.
I became deeply aware of how - by transforming my own consciousness,
I can now step into my true self,
so that I can hold the space for others: to see themselves;
their organizations;
what’s holding them back;
and what limitless creation could be unleashed.
Nicholas Lee
I didn't know what it truly means to be a facilitator, to be a leader, to be authentically in my power... until I experienced this program.
The program truly unlocks a potential within us that allows us to be authentically of service to our surroundings, not through trying, but through effortless effort of being.
It's a great dance between IQ, EQ, SQ and PQ, where at the end, I come out feeling like a completely new person.
