North Star Rising
Feeling lost in the chaos and uncertainty of our rapidly changing world?
Want to step away from the noise with a transformative weekend of clarity and inspiration?
Join Martha Beck—in person—at Omega’s North Star Rising: Finding Your Way in Turbulent Times, happening August 28–30, 2026, in Rhinebeck, NY.
This immersive retreat offers a sanctuary where you can pause, recalibrate, and reconnect with your inner compass. With her unique blend of humor, spirituality, and science, Martha will gently guide you back to the wisdom you’ve had within you all along—and the path you’re meant to take.
Give yourself the opportunity to calm your mind, tap into your natural sense of direction, and renew your faith in your unique path forward. You’ll return home feeling lighter, calmer, and better prepared for the journey ahead.
Modern Elder Academy
Find The Path To Your True Self with Martha Beck
Bring your life back into integrity – and experience levels of joy you may not realize are possible.
Do you ever find yourself staring into space thinking:
“What am I doing with my life? It wasn’t supposed to be like this. How did I get here?”
Or maybe your interior monologue sounds more like:
“Everyone says ‘follow your passion,’ but I have no idea what mine is. I thought working hard and providing for my family was the right thing to do, but I feel so empty inside.”
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone – and there’s nothing wrong with you.
You’re just out of integrity.
When you’re living in integrity, your beliefs align with what feels deeply true to you. Your actions match your deepest values. Your body, mind, heart, and soul point in the same direction.
But right now, you’re internally divided because you’re trying to act in ways that don’t feel right to you at the deepest level.
Pure Wild Self 2027
with Martha Beck and Rowan Mangan
Join Martha Beck and Rowan Mangan for a “culture cleanse” retreat in beautiful Costa Rica!
The Pure Wild Self retreat is an intentional break in the year for kindred spirits who feel bewildered and want to feel be-wilder-ed. It’s a connection point for a special group of people who feel the pull to re-wild themselves… and to rewild our whole damn world.
We don’t know about you, but we’ve been feeling the need to go where we can breathe again. We need to pause, to see the stars, and feel the earth beneath our feet.
The 2027 African STAR
An Adventure in Africa with Martha Beck
It’s time. You are ready for that next step; you know it’s bigger and more powerful than personal growth.
You feel a deeper call for purpose in your life, and you know it will quite literally take you to places you’ve never been. You know your next steps will help heal not only yourself, but also other people and the world. And those other people — the ones you know you are meant to connect with — well, you can almost see them taking shape in your peripheral vision. These people are part of your village.
If this sounds familiar, join me for one of our two African STARs (Self-Transformation Adventure Retreats). Spend a few delicious days—in an intimate group of no more than 12 people—being coached by me, by Master Coach and tracker Boyd Varty, and by my team, in one of the most magical places in the world: Londolozi Game Reserve, South Africa.
Thought Leaders Camino
Join 30 Exceptional Innovators
Would you be interested in walking the Camino de Santiago with me and 30 other thoughtful leaders in 2027?
If so, you might want to check out this experience I’ll be co-leading next year: Thought Leaders Camino
From 6th to 12th June, 2027, 30 change-makers will gather in Porto, Portugal, to begin a shared journey along the Camino de Santiago.
Across five days we will combine structured knowledge sharing sessions with free-flowing dialogues during the walks—the kind that organically emerge when deeply engaged people spend time together in nature.
5 PATHS TO YOUR PURPOSE
A FREE Masterclass with Martha Beck
Do you ever feel a bit purposeless? As you do laundry or answer endless emails, does something in you keep insisting you’re meant to do more?
That something is correct.
You have a unique life purpose, one that’s meant to serve the world and fill your days with meaning. You were born to recognize that purpose … but chances are you don’t. Early in life, most of us learn to ignore our purpose and do random things that other people value.
It’s time to unlearn that pattern.
Part of Martha Beck’s purpose is to help other people find their purpose. She’s offering an exciting, free masterclass that will help you notice and name the paths to your purpose that are always opening at your feet, though you may not be able to see them.
Register today to receive a recording of Martha’s FREE masterclass, 5 Paths to Your Purpose.
