New program starting this Tuesday March 4

We don’t have enough enrollment to be able to run both an ARC and a PRLC. So what we’ve decided is to combine them!

Sophie and I will now lead the ARC starting Tuesday March 4, 11:30am. We will cover AR fundamentals and practice in the first hour, and we will circle in the second hour, possibly in breakouts depending on the size of the group.

Given that Circling is the original and the foundational AR practice, and also an excellent framework to start private groups, we think that this new program will be quite transformational.

We  are really wanting to make this powerful work accessible to as many people as possible, so we are keeping the course sliding-scale, starting at just $195. As far as I know, this has never been done in the AR space before, and we want the experiment to be successful.

If you are interested in the new, combined course, please sign up here. Note however that Sophie and I (and not Jason) will be leading this and the structure will be different than what is presented on the page.

If you have any questions about this just reply to this email. I continue to offering free discovery calls for people interested. You can book a call here, but it would have to be tomorrow as the course starts on Tuesday. Registrations will close monday night Eastern.

With love,

Marco & Sophie
