join our 8-week virtual retreat
designing experiences for radical imagination
⚡️⚡️⚡️
learn how to create unforgettable experiences in our 2-month, deep dive course that builds your craft through real practice
🌀
If you are hungry to build more things in the world that are strange, beautiful, weird, and break the rules...If you want to make moments that wedge themselves deep in folks' brains for the long haul...If you are creating things for humans and you want more than meh for them...
have we got the container for you
Whether you're designing a gathering, a ritual, a program, a party, a retreat, a meeting series, or something that doesn’t yet have a name— this is where you bring it to life with rigor, structure, and some wildly imaginative divergence.
And what you create inside the retreat is just the beginning.
The tools, frameworks, and practices you’ll learn are designed to be used over and over again—in your workplace, your collaborations, your community, and your life-life.
You’ll leave not only with a fully-formed experience, but with a repeatable, flexible design process you can return to every time you want to build something that will change everything (and blow everyone's socks off).

đź’¬ what folks are saying 💬Â
"Olivia is a world-weaver, spinning together meaning, myth, ritual, language, and the full spectrum of the sensorial into spaces and experiences that unlock new possibilities... Quite simply, Olivia is a magician."
— Mitch Carter Jafery, Co-founder of Friday Gallery
"She challenges your existing perspectives with tenderness... You might cry? You'll definitely feel warm and fuzzy. And maybe a little upset by the world as it is. But that's ok, because you'll already be on your way to building what could be instead."
— Keely Adler, Cultural Futurist at RADAR & Dentsu Creative
"Her ability to create safe space with intention is unique... I find her strategies and tactics incredibly valuable and useful and have started to integrate her thinking into my own approach."
— Isis Arias, Executive Experiential Producer, Former Netflix Live Experiences
"No matter the format, Olivia creates a space of authentic grounding and connection to oneself and to others... Her work feels like magic."
— Ravon Ruffin Feliz, Artist & Facilitator at Citation Studio
