RAISING LUMINARIES SUMMER COLLECTIVE

Let's Get Together

Summers are busy! Whether you're traveling, or just swamped - everything is at your own pace, and you have 24/7 lifetime access.

Unlike retreats and conferences - our small, intimate cohorts works within your daily life, around your schedule.

Reclaim your time - get personal support with step-by-step guided reflections, mind-clearing creative exercises, and deep conversations of laughter and solidarity

“Before I signed up for this, I didn't know if I had enough time to do it. No I realize I did not have enough time not to do it.

I was operating at a completely unsustainable pace and this collective has freed up so much mental energy and time.

I’ve saved at least 5 hours each week on tasks I no longer feel obligated to take on - which I now spend caring for friends and family when they need me to be a support for them - without wedging them between other things or multitasking. I can give them my full attention.

RAISING LUMINARIES WORKSHOP

Summer Luminator Chapters

Our 6-week collective works around summer travel, busy careers, and camp-drop-offs, creating opportunities to connect when you're feeling isolated and spun-out.

Expect to spend anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours each week reflecting and discussing your current challenges with the members of your cohort.

How much time you invest is really up to you. There's no 'falling behind' since you're here to work at your own pace, and you're welcome to come back to grow with us each summer.

WEEK 2

But with a lifetime membership, I can continue to refer to the content any time I need it."

I was nervous that I wouldn't have time to do everything.

And I didn't! But it was fine for me to miss activities and to come to the live discussions when there were videos I hadn't watched yet, because the collective explicitly says that there's no such thing as being behind. There isn't pressure to finish or perfect everything right now, this week, or this summer.

Instead, there's the expectation that we will all circle back around with new insight in the future, so there are many chances to notice something you need to think about, plan, or do and to set that observation aside so you can pick it up again later.

Summer Luminator Scheduling FAQ

When is the Summer Luminator in session?

We run for 6 weeks every summer, starting early July continuing through mid-August.

Every Monday, we release a new chapter of content, each containing five bite-sized workshop capers with video, audio, or guidebook material to peruse at your own pace.

While we host optional drop-in hangouts on Zoom every Friday, most of our discussion happens in an asychronous chat group and in the member portal.

Upcoming Summer Luminator Dates:

2025: July 7 – August 15
2026: July 6 – August 14
2027: July 5 – August 13
2028: July 10 – August 18
…and so on

What if I'm busy or traveling for the summer?

Our 6-week collective is designed to come along with you!

Either you can wait until you get back, or access the Summer Member Portal from your phone any time of year – including all video, audio, and downloadable resources. Our chat group uses the free Marco Polo app, so you can stay connected with us even when reception is spotty.

The only ‘time sensitive’ material are our six weekly live hangouts, which are optional drop-in events that about half of our members choose to join. Other than a connecting real-time conversation, we don’t cover anything in these hangouts that we don’t discuss in the chat group and in the member portal.

I'm already overwhelmed and 6 weeks is a LOT of time - can I still participate?

The only ‘live’ events are our casual weekly hangouts on Zoom, which are totally optional, and drop-in as needed.

The real connection comes over our asynchronous chat group, which you can dip into for a few minutes at a time while going on a walk, cooking dinner, or dropping the kiddo off at camp.

Each of the six weeks, we release a new discussion chapter with bite-sized lessons and resources to help you pace yourself. After they’re released, you can access any of these resources at your own pace.

What if I fall behind?

We gather together because we can’t keep up with the demands on our time – and that’s not gonna change until we create strategies to catch up.

With lifetime access to our resources, invitations to future summer collectives, optional drop-in hangouts, and our asynchronous chat group, there is just no way to fall behind.

If life really throws you for a loop – you’ll have lifetime access to the resources and summer portal if you need to take a break and come back to hang out next summer.

How long will I have access to the resources?

You’ll have online access to the summer portal all year, for as long as it exists – that means access to the videos, downloads, guidebooks, and resource library so you can enjoy them at your own pace.

I do temporarily take down some of our lessons and resources during the enrollment period as we welcome new members. This way I can upgrade and improve our material and release each of our six chapters throughout the summer to help everyone pace themselves.

What if I miss a hangout? (Or more than one)

Our live Zoom hangouts are completely optional – designed to help members who feel more comfortable getting real-time feedback from others.

These live hangouts are a blast – but most of our conversations happen in the discussion threads or the asynchronous chat-group. Even if you have questions or ideas to share at 2am on Saturday mornings, we’re here for your weird schedule.

Are hangouts recorded?

Our live drop-in hangouts are not recorded.

In our chat group, you can leave your recordings of video or audio up for the whole duration of the summer, or delete your messages any time you feel necessary.

At the end of the summer, we close out last year’s chat group to start a fresh one with new members.

How do I register?

We accept new members on a rolling basis during our enrollment period, which typically starts in late April.

If you would like to get first dibs, join the Summer waitlist.
