The Seven Steps Retreat
On the personal investment side of the coin, The Seven Steps Retreat is a dream made true, a 7-day luxury experience in Jamaica, where every need within reason is catered for in the beautiful surroundings of our private villa on the beach.
The retreat is an unapologetic investment in self. We bring together a community of like-minded professionals at a similar stage in their lives or journeys who have intentionally prioritised self-care.
The seven steps include remembering, repairing, reimagining and restoring, but primarily, the experience is designed for participants to physically and mentally rest.
Investing in self-care in this particular retreat location gives you seven days away from other responsibilities, with the gift of time.
On your return, we promise you will take away more than a lovingly curated gift bag full of items that you will use. Beyond that, some new relationships, memories, and insights that will help keep you feeling rejuvenated and better able to be fully present in all aspects of your life, personally and professionally.
The retreat dates for 2025 are currently May/June and October. Secure your space, a room with a beautiful view.
Anti Racist Training
Second Principle Ltd offers high-quality, customised and engaging anti-racist training that cuts through the crap.
We positively focus on understanding what organisations can do and how, to improve in meaningful ways and limit the harm in the lives of any communities you serve.
Systemic inequities based on race detrimentally affect the lives of marginalised communities from the cradle to the grave.
We adopt a non-judgemental, fact-based, but no-nonsense approach to examining the roots of systems. That way we can focus our attention on the impact of those roots' deadly fruits.
Whether you are a business, a council or a government department, the diagnostic process, while urgent, is far from complicated.
​
Our aim then goes way beyond raising awareness to;
-
doing the right things
-
in the right way
-
for the right reasons
We are serious about (a) supporting your organisation in being proactive and (b) being honest about the necessary repair process because (c), frankly, my life and the life of my community depend on it.
Straight talk.
Executive Level Coaching
Second Principle Ltd offers executive-level coaching that is second to none.
We place someone experienced firmly in your corner, who has your back and is committed to walking by your side, at your pace.
Each coaching agreement is like a tailor-made suit.
Taken as a given, we only work with clients where our mutually exclusive values are aligned.
We also only offer coaching to executives who are clear about their purpose personally and professionally.
We tend to challenge orthodoxy to bring about the critical change needed to shift the status quo.
Our straight talking may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but we are damn good at what we do.
