Led by: Loretta Hidalgo Whitesides

• Tuition is $400 for professionals, $160 for students/rising income.

Invest 8 weeks in your training and development as a SpaceKind Leader. This non-traditional learning course will invite you to open your heart, define your dreams, and share your life vision. We will use Loretta's book The New Right Stuff as our text book as we do sharing and exercises that help us navigate our own hero's journey and come out the other end ready to make our unique contribution to the cosmos.

Come join a community of people ready to shake up the status quo and fulfill what they came to Earth to do.

Order your copy of The New Right Stuff today (from the closest Amazon affiliate closest to your country) to make sure it arrives ASAP. I highly recommend getting a hard copy of the book to refer to, mark up, or pass on to others and a copy of the Audible that you can listen to throughout the week while commuting, working out or doing work around the house.

The New Right Stuff was written for you. Imagine a program created to support you in fulfilling what you came to Earth to do. The New Right Stuff will take you on a hero's journey: to find your calling, to face your dark side, to be the person you have always wanted to be, and to capture your dream and to return home to share the wisdom you have gained from your journey with others using Space as a backdrop for the whole adventure. Why? Because Space is a powerful reminder of what we are capable of as a species. Space can be the source of inspiration for each of us fulfilling our part in creating what scientist Buckminster Fuller called, "a world that works for everyone."

For those of us called to greatness…

for those of us called to make a profound difference in the world…

…called to be of service to humanity…

The New Right Stuff is the book designed to bring out the best in all of us.

SpaceKind Syllabus- The Hero’s Journey

1- Ordinary World- We will see much we do by habit, unconsciously and what could become possible if we were more aware of what we do. We will write down what we wanted to get out of the training, what we came to Earth to do and meet each other.

2- We Meet Our Mentor- We will be a Jedi Listening exercise- listening to people’s greatness. We will cross the Threshold into the Special World by making a bold commitment.

3- Dark Side- We went into our cave and confronted the darkest aspects of ourselves. Then we practiced turning our “mess” into our message. We asked the important question- Is it true?

4- “Do or Do not There is no Try”- The Hero prepared for the major challenge- Luke trains in Degobah, we work on our integrity. Don’t throw anyone under the pad crawler.

5- Death, Ordeal, and Rebirth- The Hero must face death and then come out the other side transformed. In this session we will look at what needs to die in us for us to live the life we really want. We take on a courageous conversations that would be an ordeal.

6- The Reward, Seizing the Sword- We explored gratitude as the antidote to disappointment or upset. We worked on our gratitude lists and reached out to someone special in our lives.

7- Resurrection– The final challenge of our journey- getting complete with your parents- We took on getting complete with our parents to open up what is possible in all our relationships and come back to our community ready to pay it forward.

8- Return Home– We will each share what we took on during the journey, we we got out of it, and how we are going to share it with those around us. We will each create the next steps for us in our mission to keep growing and training.
