Seasonal Sabbatical
A Wonder Pact Immersion for Inner Clarity & Outer Calm
A sacred pause for those building meaningful things. The Seasonal Sabbatical Retreat is a 4-day, 3-night immersive experience designed to restore rhythm, realign purpose, and renew clarity for the next season of work and life. May life be built with meaning. We will begin with a Passenger Harvest dinner on Thursday, then flow into two full days of programming. The experience deepens through guided dialogue, embodied practice where insight moves into feeling. Saturday brings a ceremony where feeling transforms into curiosity and willingness to take action. Sunday morning’s gentle closure will send you home aligned and easeful with a sense of direction that can be carried back into real life.
Through guided conversation, embodied practice, and collective reflection, we remember that sustainability begins within.
The Seasonal Sabbatical is designed for people who know they are at a threshold. When what once worked no longer fits, and yet you’ve done all the things – books, workshops, conferences, meditation – all except slowing to FEEL and INVITE the future in with curiosity. We are creating space for something true to surface where you are able to step into the light you see in your future.

Passenger Harvest: A Wonder Pact Gathering for Collective Inquiry
Passenger Harvest is a Wonder Pact gathering for collective inquiry — an evening of guided conversation, curiosity, and connection, where food is simply the backdrop. Each dinner centers on a single topic explored through presence, honesty, and story. You bring your lived experience, your curiosity, and your willingness to share.
12 thoughtful guests gather around one table to explore a theme that meets the cultural moment. Together, we practice presence: phones away, deep listening, speaking from lived truth, and letting silence hold its rightful place in the dialogue. This is not a networking dinner or a performance. It’s a container for resonance. It’s a reminder that conversation, when held with intention, can transform how we live, lead, and belong.
Each Passenger Harvest is held seasonally in Colorado and occasionally beyond, curated with care through Wonder Pact. Scholarships are available to ensure diverse and inclusive circles of voices.

November 22, 2025 | 6pm
Location: South Westminster, CO (Metro Denver)
Theme: The Beauty of Endings.
When we meet death at the table, life sits closer too — Stoicism, Surrender & the Practice of Letting Go
This gathering invites conversation around what it means to live well by facing what ends. Drawing from Stoic philosophy and the quiet wisdom of nature’s cycles, we’ll explore how impermanence becomes a teacher — revealing grace, gratitude, and renewal in the spaces we once feared to close. Expect laughter, depth, and the soft kind of honesty that only arrives when the veil thins.
Together, we’ll explore:
- Stoicism → Finding steadiness when life shifts.
- Surrender → Letting go as a path to peace.
- Renewal → Seeing endings as beginnings in disguise.
A shared exploration of how meeting death — in all its forms — helps us meet life more fully.
The Evening Includes:
– 6PM: Arrival
– 6:30-8PM: Dinner & Conversation; Shared 3-course meal with guided, theme-based dialogue.

Passenger Harvest | What Guests Are Saying
Unthetered
In a world where we are tethered to devices and digital communication, how truly special to spend an evening engaged in a conversation that evolves organically and touches your soul long after dinner ends and guests part ways. Thoughtfully curated questions create an atmosphere that invited openness and genuine connection.
Sarah Davies
Without Fear
This was an evening like so few others, every moment was intentionally curated and flowed. Guests were chosen with a thought toward simpatico with some spicy variety thrown in to keep it interesting. I believe I ate and drank at this event, but mostly I fed my soul on connection with others like me.
Joe Kania
Spiritual Warriors
Perfect for the deep connection, conversation, and contribution of spiritual warriors of the world (like me!) This dinner brought all of that and more. Clare’s ability to curate captivating and relevant topics is palpable.
Meghann Conter
Without Fear
A conversation event that offered a safe place for those attending to share their personal and intimate spiritual and other worldly experiences openly without fear of ridicule.
Gary Gillman
Open-Hearted
Exactly what I’ve been calling in — an intimate and intentional space to connect with other curious, open-hearted humans. The evening struck a perfect balance of guidance and organic flow, and I loved having a central theme to converge around. The thoughtfulness Clare put into every part of this dinner was evident!
Allie Beckman
Explore
This was a beautifully guided conversation over dinner, with a group of thoughtful, energized seekers. I appreciated that the format was open enough for us to explore where new ideas took us.
Astrid Kock
Breaks The Status Quo
Gathering around a dinner table to break bread and connect with people around a single topic is novel. It breaks the “status quo” of casual chatter. People are thirsty for meaningful conversation that’s not yet mainstream.
Sjeanne Cawdry
Expansive
Attending was truly soul medicine. The conversation was not only enlightening, it was expansive in the best possible way. It was a breath of fresh air to connect beyond the surface — to be seen, and to see others in such an authentic way. I walked away feeling like I’d made 9 soul-aligned friends anchored in truth, presence, and shared purpose.
Stephanie Sidebottom
Vibration
A gently guided, orchestrated interactive dinner where we were brought together to share authentically, think radically, and raise the vibration.
