Your Pathway to Stewardship Starts Here...
4 Day Catalyst for Changemakers
Turn Your Vision Into a
Community-Led Movement
Next Cohort Dates Are Over October 24,25, 30, and 31st
Something larger than yourself is calling you forward to steward a mission that outlives your lifetime and benefits future generations.
You already know that traditional marketing and funnels will not house a frequency this high. For a calling of this magnitude, you need a framework designed to mobilize the masses and reshape culture at its roots.
You refuse to build on the old operating system of burnout and extraction. This is where I help you bridge the gap between ancient wisdom and modern organizational strategy to bring your vision to life and stop collapse from happening.
Perhaps most vital is the company you will keep. This is a curated container for only 10 soul-led visionaries who are on the path towards true transcendence.
Most leaders will spend 3 years and around $200K in 'trial and error' trying to build a community-led movement. I condense that architecture into 4 days of high-impact soulful and strategic mapping.
Leave with clarity of purpose, the structure to scale influence, and an embodied connection to your ancestral roots and divine intelligence that supports your momentum moving forward.
Why is this Urgent?
"The greatest threat to your movement isn’t resistance. It’s unconscious and unchecked power."
-Makenzie Darling
Founder bottleneck leads to burnout and no sustainability plan.
Everything depends on you. You’re the strategist, communicator, relationship builder, and driving force behind the mission. While your dedication has gotten you this far, it’s become increasingly unsustainable and you're looking for a more sustainable and regenerative model.
Power stewarded unconsciously leads to collapse.
Movements don't often die from external opposition. They collapse from the unexamined wounds of their founders being replicated at scale. Imagine putting all this work and time into birthing your vision, only to find it collapses based on old ancestral power conditioning.
Retention and engagement challenges stall growth.
People join your mission but fail to become deeply invested contributors, advocates, or long-term participants. When you struggle to create true belonging and ownership you're left feeling isolated, broke, exhausted, and resentful.
A vision with no structure creates overwhelm and wastes resources.
Without clear pathways teams become exhausted, stakeholders grow frustrated, you burn through money, and you end up carrying the burden all alone.
What You Leave With...
"The building blocks for an impact movement with energetic integrity and staying power."
-Phil Kreutzer (Founder of Soulmatics)
A New Relationship to How You Hold Power and Authority
•New models of governance and a better understanding of how you hold your own internal power and authority.
•Relational operating agreements that prevent burnout and conflict.
•Understand how ancestral inheritance has been quietly shaping your leadership and reconnect to the wisdom of your roots.
•Learn how movements scale differently than businesses and push beyond current limitations.
Build Belonging and Participation at Scale
•Uncover the invisible glue that builds genuine engagement and drives organic retention.
•A blueprint for a global ambassador ecosystem that invites others into shared ownership of your mission.
•A Peer-Advisory Council of fellow movement-builders for ongoing feedback, support, and accountability.
A Fully Mapped Movement Blueprint
•A content strategy that activates the right early adopters.
•A 6-month global awareness or advocacy campaign mapped with identified Stakeholders and Coalition Partners.
•Leave with the frame that changes everything... a legacy sustainability plan that solidifies your work as an ancestral offering.
"Rigorous and supportive frameworks for leaders who are here to build with deep ancestral awareness."
-Evgenia Emets (Founder of Eternal Forest)
You might be called to this work if you are a high achieving and paradigm shifting leader who...
awakened to a much larger soul assignment and knows you are here to build something substantial.
are ready to organize people around a shared mission that addresses a real cultural wound.
naturally thinks in ecosystems and collective change rather than just products or offerings
are seeking a new blueprint for movement-building that is rooted in ethical power,
community, and regenerative systems.
Who This is NOT For...
This program is not for people who need to monetize quickly. You will not find quick fixes, passive-income promises, or surface-level business tactics here.
It is not for those who want to build a personal brand rooted in ego or vanity metrics. Instead it is for leaders who are here to leave a meaningful impact and are genuinely devoted to service.
It is not for anyone unwilling to examine their relationship with power, shadow, control, or the ways they may unconsciously recreate the very systems they say they want to change. This is also not for someone who is only looking for strategy, for there is a deep and soulful component to this incubator as well.
To thrive in this container you should be financially resourced (either by yourself or through your company). You should also know your mission intimately and be able to speak to it in a grounded manner, while translating insight into real-world action.

Day 1: Stewardship
October 24 8:00 - 4:30 pm PST
We open the container by turning inward to explore your soul’s calling. Together we walk through the journey that brought you to this threshold and your most "sacred why" beneath it all.
We explore stewardship as a practice of being in right relationship with your vision and your humanity, so leadership does not come at the cost of integrity or burnout.
We begin challenging what it means to step out of the old paradigm of "business as usual" and into a new operating system of movement building which involves more decentralized power and co-creation.
We end the day by reconnecting to our ancestral allies and living support systems that help carry our momentum forward.
Day 2: Power Literacy and Governance
October 25 8:00 - 4:30 pm PST
We devote a full date to one of the most misunderstood (and essential) skills in movement building, which is how to hold power responsibly.
We begin internally by exploring our own ancestral inheritance and unexamined trauma that unconsciously shape how we hold authority.
From there, we move into relational power by learning how to create consent-based, psychologically safe containers where people feel genuinely seen, heard, and respected.
Finally, we step into structural power by examining different governance models, decision-making pathways, accountability, and repair.
You won’t leave with just theory alone. Instead, you will walk away with a clear and embodied blueprint of your movement’s power dynamics mapped to support long-term sustainability.
Day 3: Build Community Participation At Scale
October 30 8:00 - 4:30 pm PST
We turn to community as the living vessel through which movements take shape. We explore what truly binds people together beyond content or charisma...naming the invisible “glue” that creates participation and sustained engagement.
We focus on how to build a global ambassador ecosystem that invites others into shared ownership, leadership, and stewardship of your mission.
Day 4: Design Your Campaign, Coalitions, and Sustainability Plan
October 318:00 - 4:30 pm PST
Using real-world campaign case studies, you’ll outline an actionable awareness or advocacy campaign, including your content strategy and launch plan.
We then move into identifying stakeholders and coalition-building, where aligned organizations can amplify reach without compromising integrity.
The day closes by examining the legacy you are here to leave and creating a sustainability model that ensures your movement lasts for generations to come.

This experience didn’t just help me shape my mission; it strengthened my ability to embody it.
Zubin Desai,
CEO of To Realize
This program was such a gift. It’s this gorgeous mix of psycho spiritual group work, really getting down to the heart of what you care about most, and super practical tools for building your community and movement.
I’ve always been more of a behind-the-scenes kind of leader, and this program stretched me in ways I didn’t expect but really needed.
Makenzie created something really beautiful here. Movement Maker helped me see my work and myself through a much more spacious and sacred lens.
Skye Weir-Matthews
Executive Director,Sacred Garden Community Church
What moved me the most was being in a community of movement makers and change makers...people who are really eager to help use their talents to better humanity.
So much of what these types of programs usually offer are just straightforward strategies and funnels that make me feel icky.
The way Makenzie approaches the program from a higher spiritual level helped make this experience feel more authentic and live closer to my truth.
Faruk Ateş,
Founder of Love First
This program offered the structure and space necessary to challenge my own thinking about movement building, led by someone who knows her stuff about building movements.
I found it especially inspiring to be in conversation with peers from very different contexts, each of us exploring what it really means to serve humanity.
It’s the kind of experience where you get out what you put in, ideal for people who are ready to engage deeply.
Janna Jorgensen,
CEO of Human Impact Framework
