Threshold Circles 

These gatherings are intended for thoughtful individuals who value meaningful conversation, respectful listening, and personal reflection. If something in you recognizes the doorway, you’re welcome to step through.

Threshold Circles

What does wisdom actually look like in practice?

Threshold Circles are small facilitated gatherings where participants explore meaningful life questions through reflection, listening, and conversation.

They are not therapy groups, coaching programs, classes, or debate forums.

They are spaces for thoughtful dialogue, personal reflection, and shared exploration.

Introduction to Threshold Circles (One-Time)

If you’re curious about Threshold Circles but would like to experience one before making a monthly commitment, you’re warmly invited to join an introductory gathering.

This one-time circle offers an opportunity to experience the format, meet others, and discover whether this style of thoughtful conversation feels like a good fit.

Like the ongoing circles, the gathering is intentionally small, facilitated, and grounded in respectful listening, reflection, and authentic dialogue.

If it resonates with you, you’ll be invited to join an ongoing Threshold Circle as space becomes available.

A Note About Reciprocity

Kohala Sunset

Threshold Circles are offered by monthly membership rather than on a per-session basis.

The monthly fee is $240, which includes one 90-minute gathering each week with a small, facilitated group.

I have chosen this model intentionally.

A circle grows through continuity, trust, and shared presence. While each gathering stands on its own, the deeper value comes from returning week after week, listening carefully, and allowing relationships and insights to unfold over time.

I think of this exchange not simply as a fee, but as an act of reciprocity. It honors the time, preparation, experience, and care that go into creating and holding the circle, while also reflecting each participant’s commitment to the process.

Threshold Circles are not therapy, coaching, or a classroom. They are thoughtfully facilitated conversations where every voice matters, every participant is treated with respect, and no one is expected to have the answers.

If this work resonates with you, I would be honored to welcome you into a circle.
