Our Mission: To Heal The Divide
Learning in Action is committed to healing the divide within and between people. Healing the divide within and between is the work that connects the world. Healing our dividedness from our essence will heal the dividedness between us. We dream of a world in which when one of us hurts, we all feel it. And we run to the aid of the other just as we would to our own. We envision a world in which there is a realization that we are separate and connected and ONE.
WE-I: A Map to Better Relationships
WE-I is the key to fostering deeper connections and mindful relationships, even in challenging situations. It's the ability to be fully present, connected, and attuned to all dimensions of human experience within ourselves and others.
Why WE-I Matters
In a world marked by division, WE-I offers a path to reconnection and improved relationships. By understanding and harnessing our own WE-I, we open doors to personal and professional growth, stronger connections, and more meaningful interactions.
WE-I in Coaching, Leadership, and Teamwork
By integrating WE-I principles into your work, you can:
- Enhance presence and build deeper relationships.
- Support clients in increasing self-awareness and attunement
- Identify triggers and respond mindfully under stress.
- Utilize emotional intelligence, mindfulness, and relational intelligence for clarity, efficiency, and creativity.
Distinguishing WE-I from EQ
While EQ focuses on emotions, WE-I explores all five dimensions of our inner experience. WE-I dives deeper into the foundations of emotional intelligence, emphasizing relationships as its core context.
The WE-I Profile
The WE-I Profile uncovers hidden patterns that affect our relationships. By shedding light on these patterns, it offers unique insights and a specialized vocabulary to navigate stress and conflict, enabling healthier, more mindful relationships in both personal and professional life.

The Emergent Coaching Program
Deepen Your Coaching Presence, Attune with the Energetic Field, and Discover New Thresholds for Transformative Coaching Relationships
The Emergent Coach Program is a transformative and experiential program designed for coaches who feel called to their profession and are eager to dive deeper into the essence of coaching.
It emphasizes the idea that coaching is not just about accumulating knowledge and skills but recognizing oneself as an instrument of something greater, connecting with the consciousness that flows through both the coach and the client. Participants will learn to coach from a place of profound self-awareness and attunement, inviting clients to access their own wholeness. By embracing this perspective, coaches can facilitate generative relationships, employ silence and presence effectively, explore the meaning of emotions, navigate the energetic field, and harness their unique intuition to guide clients toward growth and awakening.
