Ever notice how you can do a lot of inner work and still feel stuck?

In this conversation with Integral Life, Kimberley Lafferty, Terri O’Fallon, and Kim Barta explore bypassing — and what real integration actually asks of us.

Have you ever felt that something inside you is shifting — but you don’t quite have language for it?

The STAGES Model helps make sense of how we grow, how perspectives mature, and why certain challenges repeat. This February, we’re offering a live, 4-week introduction taught by Isabelle de Geofroy.

An accessible doorway into developmental understanding.

This course will cover the fundamental principles of the STAGES Model and the first eight stages of human development through presentations, experiential exercises & group discussion, providing participants with a foundational understanding of the model as a tool for psycho-spiritual growth.

If you’re feeling the nudge — even just a little — now is the perfect moment to secure your spot.

🌿 Shadow with Kim
🌈 States with Kimberley

We begin TOMORROW.

Development teaches us to hold more complexity.
Spiritual wisdom teaches us to return to pure simplicity.

How do we live both?
Not by solving the paradox — but by embodying it.

Join us for Removing the Blocks to Development & Awakening, a 3-week live course exploring certainty, thinking, and seeking… the very forces that help us grow early in life but later block deeper awakening.

Starts TOMORROW, November 22

Some retreats teach.
Some retreats transform.
A few retreats transfigure.

In March 2026, three world-class guides —
✨ Terri O’Fallon
✨ Kim Barta
✨ Kimberley Lafferty

— come together in Maui for a once-in-a-lifetime immersion into Shadow, States, and Stages.

Six days of depth.
Six days of community.
Six days where the island itself becomes a teacher.

If you feel the call, trust it.
This is The Gathering.

🌺 Early Bird ends Nov 30

LAST CHANCE to join STAGES’ final course of the year
Removing the Blocks to Development & Awakening
Begins November 22

Three weeks to explore how essential human capacities become blocks that quietly limit our development — until we learn to transform them.

In this final live program of 2025, we’ll explore how Certainty, The Thinking Mind, and Seeking evolve through the Concrete, Subtle, and MetAware Tiers — and how they begin to function in an entirely new way as the MetAware Tier matures.

If you’re sensing a “next step” in your development or awakening, this may be the perfect space to step into it.

🧘‍♂️ 3 live sessions with Santiago Santai Jiménez
📅 Saturdays, starting November 22
🎓 Experiential + developmental + immediately applicable

Register now — last week to join.

STAGES' Last Course of the Year - From Wanting to Seeking to Being

We spend our lives seeking — for meaning, success, love, or spiritual awakening. But what if the very act of seeking is what keeps us from the freedom we long for?

As we grow through life, this impulse transforms:
✨ Concrete Tier — We seek comfort, safety, belonging.
✨ Subtle Tier — We seek purpose, mastery, and truth.
✨ MetAware Tier — We see that seeking itself sustains separation — and letting go reveals the luminous being we’ve always been. Then, seeking and non-seeking are no longer two.

Join us for Removing the Blocks to Development and Awakening,

a 3-part live course exploring the deepest paradoxes of growth and awakening.

🗓️ Starts November 22

Join Kim Barta, Terri O’Fallon, and Kimberley Lafferty this March in Maui, Hawaii, for The Gathering: a six-day immersion into the living synergy of shadow, states, and stages.

This is not another retreat.
It’s a field of transformation — a community of unstoppable love — where awakening meets embodiment and insight becomes lived wisdom.

THE THINKING MIND

One of the most fundamental capacities of being human is our ability to think.

Our thoughts have built civilizations, shaped art, and created meaning.

Yet beneath all thought, there’s a deeper intelligence — the living awareness that has been here since the very beginning.

In Removing the Blocks to Development and Awakening, we’ll explore how our thinking mind both opens and obscures the path to freedom — and how it can become a creative ally instead of a master.

🧠✨ Begins November 22
