Expand The Box is a safe and astonishing 3-day learning environment for upgrading traditional thinking and behaviors.
Without our knowing how, the standard thinking and behavior patterns we adopted from our parents, our culture and our education system severely limit both the quality of our relationships and our ability to respond creatively to the opportunities and challenges of life. Expand The Box installs swinging doors through walls that previously appeared to be impenetrable.

Humanity Rising represents a movement of people and organizations coming together to take counsel on how to leverage the crisis of the current pandemic into an opportunity for human renewal and increased resilience to future challenges. . The coronavirus has been an unprecedented global event. For the first time in history, virtually everyone everywhere has been challenged by the same illness with consequences that have effectively compelled most infected countries into some form of lockdown. People all over the world are having the same feelings about their wellbeing, the same anxieties about survival, and the same questions about how they are going to rebuild beyond the pandemic. This is true whether you are an individual, a company, an organization, or a country. All of us everywhere at every level are in the same conversation. Everything has been disrupted, everything needs to change. Let us take advantage of this and come together to reshape our world in alignment with a positive vision of the future.
