OUR PURPOSE & VISION
BEYOND THE MISSION
The Navigator Project fosters an environment ripe for systemic change & rapid learning by nurturing and developing courage, creativity, intuition, body intelligence, emotional fluency, conscious awareness and an essential spirit of adventure. As we broaden our perspectives and approach life with an open mind and open heart, we dare to take on the challenges of our time by assuming full responsibility for our life circumstances and opening ourselves to supporting others as they do the same.
PURPOSE
We are here for more than survival. As wayfinders, we constantly seek to fine tune our internal compass and live on the evolving edge of our experiences while honoring our past. We face our shadows and dive deep into the challenges and experiences that strengthen our character. As we strategically master our inner world, we expand our capacity to thrive in the outer world. The ripple effect of our humility and self-knowing invites others into growth by setting the examples often missing in our culture. We know that each of us serves a unique and critical purpose. We set sail together to bring forth the best in all of us.
VISION
At The Navigator Project we envision a future where men meet their edges, dissolve limiting beliefs, and shed antiquated ideologies. We will create an environment that encourages men to befriend, rather than bury, their emotional landscape. By celebrating the human experience, we will Thrive living a life of connection, empowerment and mutual success. By focusing on three major pillars, The Navigator Project will remain steadfast in our inviolable dedication as an impactful organization that is making positive waves throughout the world.
