A life can look prosperous in one capital while another is being depleted. This course introduces the School's multi-capital approach to wealth: Financial, Intellectual, Social, Relational, Emotional, Life Force, Creative, Spiritual and Time. Through guided inquiry and practical reflection, participants learn to see connections, tensions and possibilities that a financial balance sheet cannot show. Each participant develops their own understanding; nobody is given a score or a verdict on how to live.

What we will work with

  • The meaning of each of the 9 Life Capitals, and the relationships among them.
  • Where time, attention, energy and other resources actually go.
  • How a gain in one capital may support, or cost, another.
  • Applying a multi-capital reading to a question or choice from your own life.

What you can take away

A view, in your own words, of the wealth present in your life, and a way to revisit it as circumstances change.

Who it is for

Anyone who wants to look at their life beyond financial measures, especially when achievement and fulfilment have begun to mean different things.

Age

18+.
