NEW WAVE OF GROUPS

Presenting the Evolutionary Groups Framework

Every conversation is a group — your family around the dinner table, your colleagues in a business meeting, you and your partner, your community.

Every time people gather they hope for something satisfying. And yet we so often leave still hungry.

 

One person, paying attention in the right way, can change that. Groups can feel alive...safer, more honest, more electric. You can be that person.

 

You can wake up your groups.

ABOUT THE WORK

Most of us have been in groups our entire lives without ever being taught how they actually work or how to make them better.​ Why do some feel electric and others feel like a slow drain? Why do certain conversations open something up, while others leave everyone a little more closed? 

What we've been missing now has a name. "Evolutionary Groups" is a whole new way of being in groups whether you lead them or simply sit inside them.

 

And you can begin living it right now. 

Evolutionary Groups is a practical, immediately usable approach for anyone who wants all the groups in their life to feel more authentic, connected, and alive. Families, workplaces, therapy rooms, spiritual circles, friendships...anywhere people gather, this work applies.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

"After just the first class I was already consciously and deliberately bringing the principles to the groups that I lead, and the effect has been palpable. It has opened me to change the way I think about 'conducting' a group and motivating my staff." — Sales Manager

"So practical! I used the elements with my children right away. I think we all felt more comfortable."— Mom

"An innovative and transformational experience that is the way forward for all groups. I am finding the eight elements so beneficial in both my personal and professional life."  

—Transformational Coach

"I can feel the amount of connection and unity that's here. And that's what this work is starting to give me. I can surrender, explore, play, and not feel like it's too much or that I am too much." — Support Group Participant

THE BOOK

IMG_4905.jpg

Evolutionary Groups: A New Frontier in Human Connection is a practical guide packed with simple, immediately usable tools — ways to shift the tone of a gathering, bring ease into difficult moments, deepen heartfelt connection, and help create the kind of group people actually want to return to.

 

No background in facilitation or group work required, just a genuine desire to make things better. You'll see every group you're part of differently, and know exactly what to do to bring it alive.

Readers describe coming back to the book again and again — underlining, dog-earing, and putting it to use the same week they picked it up.

"Clear, grounded, and infused with wisdom that feels both practical and visionary. It's rare to find a book that speaks so directly to the heart of what's needed in this moment of human development."

FREE INTRO ZOOM EVENT

 

A DIFFERENT WAY TO BE IN GROUPS

​​​​Free One-Hour Introduction with Anne and Patricia

Come meet us and meet the work.

In this live Zoom session, you'll get a taste of what an Evolutionary Group actually feels like.​​

You'll leave with:

A glimpse of a new lens for understanding every group you're part of

At least one thing you can bring back to your groups right away

 

And if the room comes alive the way it often does, you may also walk away with something harder to name. A felt sense of what's possible.

We'll also explore:

Why some groups feel alive and others feel flat, strained, or boring — and what actually creates the difference

How one person can shift the atmosphere of a group without taking it over

Wednesday, July 29 11:00am-Noon ET

Wednesday, August 5 6:00–7:00pm ET

Saturday, August 15 10:00-11:00am ET​​​​

ONLINE COURSES

THE 3-WEEK COURSE
A FIRST EXPERIENCE OF EVOLUTIONARY GROUPS

Most of us have never been in a group that actually works — where people listen without agenda, speak without performance, and something larger than any one person seems to come alive in the room. That's what this course is.

Over three sessions, you'll be guided through the foundational practices of Evolutionary Groups: listening to yourself, listening to one another, and listening to the group as a living whole. You'll begin to notice the patterns that shape every group you've ever been part of — and discover what becomes possible when you meet them with more presence, honesty, and care.

The group is intentionally small — nine participants plus Patricia and Anne — so that everyone has room to be genuinely present. This is not a lecture. It's a direct experience, guided by two people who bring decades of experience helping groups become more conscious, connected, and alive.

You'll leave with:

✧ A real felt sense of this work — not just an explanation of it

✧ Simple practices you can bring to any group in your life

✧ A new awareness of your own patterns in groups

✧ A clear sense of whether you want to go deeper

$150 • 3 sessions • 90 minutes each

August section: Thursdays beginning August 20 • 1:00–2:30pm ET September section: Wednesdays beginning September 23 • 1:00–2:30pm ET
