SUMMER
An online small-group retreat in three parts
July – August – September
Including private coaching with Erica Ando, PhD and Michelle A M Miller
Registration is now closed.
Summer has its own flavor.
There's a fullness to it — buzzing and heavy at the same time. The days stretch long, and then almost without noticing, begin to shorten. The light moves from bright to golden to the particular heaviness of late September.
This is your invitation to step inside it — and to change the way you experience the season.
This season, let’s set the usual pace aside.
Over three Sundays, we gather with a small-group of like-minded peers to let the week fall away. We'll spend time together through meditation, stories, prompts and conversation that can transform your perspective.
You’ll also receive two private coaching sessions, one with Erica and one with Michelle, that can help you navigate what’s coming up for you between gatherings.
Three gatherings
Our themes: Joy — Enoughness — Time
Through the season, you become more receptive to joy, loosen the grip of impossible standards, and move through your days with less urgency and more intention.
Two private coaching sessions
Erica and Michelle are experienced coaches and facilitators who can help you with a question you've been carrying, a decision you're sitting with or something that’s been feeling heavy. We help you find clarity.
"I learned to listen to myself more instead of always pushing on the throttle,
and to slow down when I needed to."
— Weatherly S.
Why we're looking forward to SUMMER
We created Interval Paper and The Good Enough Guide because we longed for a different kind of space ourselves—one where conversations didn't have to end just as they became interesting.
We'll bring stories, reflections and perspectives shaped by our own lives, our work, and the people we've been fortunate to know along the way. Mostly, we'll bring ourselves.
We can't wait to meet in the group and individually.
"Michelle guided us into a reflective, gracious, lighthearted conversation... I was comfortable and happy."
— Angela B.
Through the season
Between gatherings, we'll occasionally send something related to the month's theme—a poem, a short reading, a reflection or a prompt.
Not as homework or something to keep up with.
Simply a way to stay connected to the conversation as the season unfolds.
Seasons change whether we notice them or not. SUMMER is an invitation to notice this one before it slips quietly into autumn.
