Are you ready to step into a deeper dream and actualize your life?
Full disclosure. You have not landed in a normal, conventional space.

Far from it.

I don’t want to be normal. It’s no measure of sanity to be adjusted to an insane world”
— John Robbins

We are Hope and Julian.

Together we curate

a playground for shedding normalcy.

Join us for virtual, in-person living events where sparks happen.

We’ll land you in spaces with luminaries, mischief-makers, and trailblazers—all breaking down barriers.

Our recipe includes blending sacred tradition with spicy, novel flavours.

Unafraid of stirring the pot, Julian and Hope are primed to shake you up.

It’s what we came here to do.

Braintrust 2025 Experience

Early Access to the 2025 Alter Braintrust Experience

Ready to elevate your journey in a year unlike any other? The 2025 Braintrust Experience is opening early access. Designed by Hope and Julian to be a forge for resourcing, to awaken purpose, presence, and creation.

Structure:

  • Two Deep-Dive Retreats: Gather in person for two immersive retreats (US + CAD) to connect, reset, and elevate. These experiences will anchor our commitment to ourselves, our visions and each other over the Braintrust journey.

  • Monthly 2-Hour Calls: Join Hope and Julian, along with guest luminaries, for guided and emergent sessions that challenge and inspire. Here, you don’t come to consume; you come to create, to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with curious and inspiring fellow visionaries.

  • Be Circled: By a group trusted brains you can’t live without. Spend time, in person and online, with a crew of humans dedicated to their highest growth and yours.

This is where ancient wisdom meets modern insight. Secure your spot now—early access won’t last.

Apply today and step into the next level of your journey in 2025.
