You didn't find this page by searching. Someone who's been to the château — who's sat around the fire, shared a meal, and left a little more themselves — thought of you specifically and passed this along.
That's not nothing. Community Council is invite-only, and alumni referrals are how we grow. So if you're reading this, someone already thinks you belong here.

If you’re a community architect, experience designer, or someone who finds joy in crafting moments that bring people together, BoardingPass Connections is a newsletter for people who care deeply about how we gather and connect.
In each issue, I share what I’m learning in real time — case studies from the field, tiny tactics that make a big difference, and the behind-the-scenes glimpses.

COMMUNITY COUNCIL 2026
What to Expect
Community Council isn't a conference. It’s a retreat. A working sabbatical. A reset button. It’s a pause from the pace — and a return to purpose.
Held at the historic Château de Courtomer in Normandy, we’ve curated an experience where every detail has been designed with intention: from who you’ll sit beside at dinner, to the conversations we’ll spark around the fire, to the challenges you’ll unpack around the roundtable.
❋ 4-days, 3-nights
Private room with en-suite bathroom at the château. All meals, all drinks, and a coach transfer to and from Paris.
❋ Peer Advisory Groups
Want to keep going after the retreat? Join our quarterly peer group program (one-year commitment).
❋ Participatory Structure
This is not a sit-in-the-dark, watch-the-stage kind of event. The magic is in the room. Come ready to dive in.
❋ A Supportive Space
We've built this to prioritize comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage.
“We’re Château people now”
The program is meant to be experienced, but to get a sense of what we’re building a
