Join Pádraig and Small Giants Academy host Nathan Scolaro for a restorative and nourishing weekend at our home offices in St Kilda. Through exercises and conversations, we will look at the importance of cultivating awe in our lives, how we can hone our curiosity, observation and deep listening skills, and how we can transform what we are attuned to into stories and poetry.
