Threshold

inspiration from Nature for when you are at a crossroads

Feeling stuck? Not satisfied with the way things are? Be guided by Nature and find the support you need. A deeper dive for leaders at a crossroads in work or life.

Gain insight, clarity and confidence for making a change.

You are a leader navigating a complex and uncertain world. You have decisions to make, new directions to take. On some level this is already in motion. Deep down you already know what needs to be done, the choices to make, the new ways of being that are calling you.

And yet you are not sure. You may be feeling stuck. Or perhaps there is a lot of noise or resistance getting in the way. Perhaps the path ahead is not clear. Perhaps you are not quite ready or don't have the confidence to let go of what's holding you back.

Or maybe there is something that you need to acknowledge or honour before you can truly move forward.

This is a pivotal moment. The choices you make now can have a profound impact - not just on your own trajectory but also on the direction and success of your team and organisation.

Threshold is a unique and special programme that blends coaching, walking and reflection with the wisdom of Nature. It is designed to support and empower you through change, helping you move forward with inspiration and confidence.

I can't thank you enough. It was an extraordinary experience..... the calmness, confidence and sense of self suddenly emerged through our conversation when setting the intention, and stayed with me throughout the process and beyond.

How Threshold can support you

Inspired by ages-old indigenous wisdom, Threshold is a deeper dive for leaders. It's an experience that invites you to step into Nature - where you can pause, reflect and find the inspiration and direction you need during a time of transition, or to mark a significant moment - so that you can move forward with confidence.

As a leader, Threshold can support you with various challenges you face, including:
  • getting clarity on the work you do and what you offer the world
  • navigating relationship issues - whether at work or in your personal life
  • breaking free from feeling stuck
  • reconnecting to the bigger picture
  • embracing a change that is unfolding or one that you're ready to make.

By helping you clarify your intention and working with that in the mirror of Nature, you'll gain insight, clarity and the confidence to step forward and cross the threshold.

It was really powerful. The photos I took and the things I brought back help me to recall this moment. Am looking forward to putting the change into practice.

How it works

Threshold is a journey that you take on your own - a ceremonial walk in a wild place for several hours, somewhere that's easy for you to reach. But you won't be entirely on your own. I will guide and support you with important conversations. There are four steps, here's how it works:
  1. Preparation: Before the walk, we meet to help you understand the process and to explore your intentions, so that you head into the experience with clarity and purpose.
  2. Threshold: Carry your intention into Nature. You make a threshold to mark the start and end, then walk with no set destination. Spend some time reflecting. Allow yourself to be immersed in Nature, and to have the experience. There is no goal except to return.
  3. Mirroring: After the walk, we meet to help you make sense of what happened, uncover the deeper meaning, and discuss any insights, lessons, and next steps that emerge.
  4. Integration: A follow-up checkin and review call to support the integration.

Everything that unfolds during the walk is part of the ceremony - it is best not to try interpret this on your own. As your guide, I am here to help you discover the right meaning and uncover the insights to take forward.

The guiding conversations usually happen over Zoom (unless we are lucky enough to live nearby).


I'll provide you with clear instructions and ground rules. Full confidentiality is assured.

I entered the Threshold process with only some partially formed thoughts about what I was hoping to gain from it, and I was surprised by the level of clarity that the experience was able to bring. The walk itself was a journey, and Nigel’s post-walk guidance really helped me to interpret it.
