Developing the Power of You.
Get Confident. Lead Better.

June 28-30, 2023
St. Louis, Missouri

You want a more effective way to lead that doesn't mean sacrificing who you are and the rest of your life.
I get it — you’re exhausted. The burnout is real.

You want to stop second-guessing yourself as a leader so you can get more than just the promotion — you are excited about what you do. 

And you are missing the joy of work because you’re leading outside your nature and your gifts, doubting yourself all along the way. So leading your team feels like quicksand: the more you work, the harder it all becomes.

Here’s the thing: Great teams start with healthy leaders.

When you know yourself, your personality, your values, and your leadership style first, you lead from solid ground that feels aligned, empowered, and free. 

Imagine having a compass and guide to show the path from self-doubt to self-trust. What would it feel like to have the skills and the confidence to lead yourself and others powerfully?

Let me tell you...it's amazing. I want to help you get there.

Take the time to invest in yourself at CATALYST. This retreat for leaders offers the space to dig into your personality, your values, and your leadership style. You’ll leave knowing who you are and with a personalized plan for the next 90 days in your life as a leader. You'll leave feeling alive, connected, and joyful, ready to lead you and your team.

There are only 12 spots for this exclusive experience. Save your spot today.

Great teams start with healthy leaders.

I want this.

Sarah

health care leader

I had a poor distinction between home and work life, frustration with the management of both. After our Enneagram training in the Catalyst Leadership Lab, I improved my confidence, understanding how I was leading in both areas, and I was able to set more reasonable expectations on myself and others.

When I put the Enneagram training to work, I found the ability to notice my own questions, use my natural gifts to grow my team, and create new options for my teen boys. My new effectiveness earned me a top-tier corporate trip with my company!

Jenny Lynne

Nonprofit leader

Before joining Catalyst, I had a pretty good understanding of myself as a person. But Catalyst helped me not only learn how how to actually use my relational strengths, but to consider myself a leader. What I learned in about the Enneagram was instrumental in changing how I communicate to be more effective at home and at work. Coaching with Jenn kept me accountable to apply the coaching. I expanded my leadership role to a regional and even national level in my organization..

Here's what you'll experience during CATALYST:
Leadership Style, Leadership Mindset, and Leadership Alignment so you can lead in your gifts, skills, and talents. Using the Catalyst Compass, you are prepped for the next level of leadership. 


ONE:
Take stock of your current leadership skills, self-awareness, and struggles.

TWO:
Name, clarify, and refine your personal values and identify actions aligned to those values. Create a values operating system as a framework for decisions and team culture.

THREE:
Discover your Enneagram personality type, its motivations, powers, and pressures. Not just in theory, but how those gifts and challenges appear in your roles and responsibilities (like the zoom room and the kitchen table.).

FOUR:
Map your leadership style and other skills so you can take action with specific strategies that fit your needs and situation.

FIVE:
Create a 90-day plan to implement in your leadership.

This leadership retreat is the catalyst to your life as an effective and confident leader (and human being). CATALYST retreat is for leaders who are eager for the next level of leadership and ready to do the work to catapult your effectiveness.

WHY DOES THIS MATTER?
This retreat is the self-awareness work that changes you and your team.

Dr. Tasha Eurich, an organizational psychologist, and her research team found self-awareness is associated with higher job and relationship satisfaction, personal and social control, and happiness. Self-aware leaders experience less anxiety, stress, and depression.

Other studies continue to demonstrate that self-aware leaders earn more promotions, are more effective in their roles, have more committed and engaged team members, and run more profitable companies.

And yet research studies also show about 10% of have accurate self-awareness.

Join us at CATALYST to dig into the leadership and mindset self-awareness that will pave the way for your growth.

Leading as a woman can be lonely. This exclusive experience will build relationships and connections that will support your leadership for years to come.

What’s the value of leading a healthy team without sacrificing your life? 

What does your investment get you?

Join us for CATALYST retreat for a one-time investment of $2,497 that will make possible the freedom, peace, and confidence you want. 

How much does it cost?

Leaders from organizations like Chick-Fil-a, Western Union, GDT, Kiwanis International and more bring Jenn in to speak to their groups. Although these companies pay Jenn five figures to teach these same concepts and frameworks through her keynotes and workshops, CATALYST retreat is only $2,497.

Along with an exclusive time with Jenn in a small group, the rest of your experience includes the following:

Experiential learning that’s beyond a workbook
We’ll spend our first time together building a new community together, reviewing intentions and expectations, and diving into what you specifically need from the retreat. Meaning what does creating a healthy leader and great team look like for your particular role and position right now.

Identify your Enneagram personality type, your values, and your unique leadership map
Finding your Enneagram personality type is far more than a test. We’ll dive deep into types not only for you, but to understand your team, leaders, and other relationships. The question I get asked more than any other is how do I know what my personality type is? And the next one, “How do I use it with my team/spouse/kids?” You’ll walk away with your Enneagram type and more so you can know how use your to create a great team (Because that starts with you!)

Learn in community with others (away from day-to-day pressures)
This retreat is a time to focus on you. This is a space to feel away from the emails, the slack, the client, and even the kids and the dog. A beautiful, light-filled space overlooking the Missouri river and the Gateway Arch, creates a new atmosphere to breathe and learn.

Catered lunches from local St. Louis restaurants on Thursday and Friday
Jenn loves a good local place (her grandparents used to own a restaurant!), so introducing you to some delicious local eats is exciting. Also, these aren’t rushed times. The stories swapped and the “Oh! Me too!” moments are part of the magic of this experience.

In-person learning and coaching
The work you’ll do throughout this retreat is kind that companies regularly pay $10,000 or more for a full-day experience. So over the retreat, you’ll have this exclusive experience that allows for the space to absorb and apply (not just listen and forget when you get back home). Because there are only 12 spots, you’ll have lots of individual attention and support. And a new community of like-minded, growth-oriented leaders.

Special St. Louis Event
Keeping it a little bit of a surprise, but a special St. Louis experience with time to laugh, connect, and break the mold of active learning. Because as a former educator, Jenn is an expert at facilitating learning in fun places that feel a little outside the box but make the learning stick.

A 90-day plan to take back to your life
One of the hardest parts of the mountain-top experience is coming back to earth. We’ll close the retreat with a 90-day plan to make sure the application happens and doesn’t stay up in the clouds.


Reserve your spot

This experience is only available for 12 leaders.

Hiya! I'm Jenn.

I sat at new-to-me-but-actually-old desk, wondering if I could really do this job. I wasn't worried about the tasks — I was worried about me dealing with all the people development that comes with a leadership role.

Are you in that place? Where you're moving up, but it also means you have to level up? All the what-if, doubting questions that paper-cut your confidence.

I can help. In that first leadership role, I had the mac-daddy of all revelations about leadership: it starts with me. All the people issues and problem-solving and vision-casting and teamwork doesn't happen if I don't do my own personal and professional development. And all of those leadership skills are attainable.

Years later, I'm now here to help you. After leading students, faculties, teams, and leaders, I dug into an entire masters program on communication and culture in addition to Enneagram certification and conflict resolution training. I specialize in interpersonal conflict resolution, leadership, and the Enneagram. I've developed the Catalyst Compass model to walk leaders and their teams into healthy workplace culture.

All of that experience and training is so I can guide leaders just like you build confidence, lead effectively, and live with peace and wholeness without sacrificing who you are.

Imagine for a moment the feeling of confidence

I want that Confidence

What does it feel like to trust yourself? To know you have the skills to walk into that meeting ready to effectively manage any decision or problem that comes your way. To know you are performing at your top level without sacrificing you or your family. How would that feel?
That is what you can have beginning with
CATALYST retreat: Developing the Power of You.

I'm sure you do!
I've got answers.

You're right.
Take me to the next step.

I've never heard of the Enneagram. Do I need to before I start?

What if I miss some because of travel or work?

I'm not sure about groups. How will I get individual attention?

Who's coming?

Is there homework?

Not at all. I will walk you through it. And if you already know your type, wing, and subtype, you will grow further in applying the Enneagram into your actual walking around life. So it actually makes a difference for you.

Listen, friend...life happens. And also, you are an adult who gets to be the boss of your calendar. I suggest doing your best to be fully available during the session times. There are plenty of breaks built in to check in with email, absorb what you've been learning, and evenings are free. (The surprise event is optional!)

Well, you! And leaders like you are ready to get unstuck and level up their leadership. Women who want to build healthy team cultures, land the new role, get the raise without sacrificing who they are. And learning is always better with friends. Invite your colleague or friend from another city and grow together.

There is a short pre-work activity that will prepare you for your individual retreat goals. I won't be assigning extra reading or watching, but I will offer resources to extend the learning from the retreat.

Learning leadership skills in a group is the most natural way! Leadership is already about a group, so in a group you get to practice your skills, develop peer relationships, and experience other perspectives. And I make sure each individual gets time to ask questions and engage with coaching. And if you want more, I'm offering a special 1:1 coaching session after the retreat for only $347 (Typically a 1:1 session is $750).

Ok. I'm in.

You've read this far.
You are at least curious...

Can I use my professional development funds?

This is a fantastic space to use your professional development funds. I also believe investing in yourself enhances the experience. If you need support in justifying the value of the retreat, please email Jenn for help.

Registration

Yes! It's time to register for CATALYST and lead without sacrificing your life.

Listen, friend. If you're all the way down here, you're either TL;DR, or you want this.

SKIMMERS: NBD...Great teams start with healthy leaders. That means you need to invest in you.

If you want this, now is your time. Coming to the retreat gets you unstuck, grows your leadership mindset and skills so you can level-up your leadership, return the joy to work, and have a high-functioning team. It means you get all the content that you can apply toward the dream you've been thinking about the entire time you're reading this page.

Come to the retreat...that's your next right step.
