MY WHY
Dr Joe tells his students that 'we're greater than we think, we're more powerful than we know, more unlimited than we could ever dream .' My experience with Dr. Joe's work for the last four years has taught me that this is the truth.
My journey with meditation and Dr. Joes teachings began as I wanted to better my health. As a child I was diagnosed with arthritis and later in my early twenties with chrons disease. Upon that second diagnoses my life was at an all time low, and I decided I would stop at nothing to heal my body. I began a deep dive into holistic treatments, all the diets, and the mind body connection, which included reading Dr. Joe's Becoming Supernatural. I realized that to heal I would need to change, and so began the journey of dedicating myself to healthy living, including changing how I spent my time, pursuing holistic treatments, biohacking, carving out time to meditate, and surrounding myself constantly with books and podcasts on how to heal. Within two months of deciding to change, the chrons completely disappeared and a year later my arthritic symptoms were 80% better. Around this time I decided to go all in on Dr. Joe's work and booked myself into my first Week Long Advanced retreat. Since that first event I knew this was how I wanted to live my life and because of this my whole life has changed.
To this day I am not only completely without those autoimmune conditions, but I am FREE. I feel no fear that they will return and no longer rely on biohacking or holistic remedies to remain healthy - I know that I create my own inner pharmacy and am in a whole new body. In the last four years, I have travelled and lived around the world, created abundance and new jobs, found my soul family and dedicated myself to creating community. All these experiences have been amazing, but the greatest blessing this work has brought me is to learn to trust, surrender and love. To see the divine in myself and all around me. To connect to a source that is more love than I ever thought possible.
Some of my deepest moments of connecting to love have been when loving another person into life. These experiences have solidified in my knowing, that to give is to receive. The feeling of helping another person heal, or live a more living fulfilling life is better than any amount of money could buy. To me this fundraiser, is not just an opportunity to give it is an opportunity to receive. The knowing that I can help another person access the teachings and experiences I have had is the best feeling. This community has changed my life, and every young person deserves the chance to be surrounded by peers who are loving, supportive, and believe in possibility.
I am driven by community and I am driven by love. I am committed to ensuring that cost is not a barrier to supporting a young person in need to experience the life changing effects of a Week Long Retreat. Every time we invest in a young persons healing and transformation we are investing in one more person, who with a newly opened heart, will create ripples in their families, their friends and communities. When we come together to champion these young people we will all become greater than the sum of our parts, and the magic of this work will become the new normal as this love expands.
What We Do
We are a collective of young people whose lives have been profoundly transformed through the work of Dr. Joe Dispenza. Having experienced firsthand the power of inner change, healing, and expanded possibility, we are now committed to ensuring that other youth — regardless of financial, health, or life circumstances — can access the same transformational tools.
Our mission is simple yet powerful: remove barriers so young people can transform their lives.
We believe youth are the seeds of the future. They are tomorrow’s leaders, innovators, healers, and paradigm shifters. When young people are equipped with tools for personal transformation, emotional resilience, and conscious creation, the ripple effect extends far beyond the individual — it impacts families, communities, and ultimately the world.
Through this fundraiser, we are creating pathways for youth to attend Dr. Joe Dispenza’s retreats, where they can access teachings, practices, and a global community dedicated to healing, growth, and elevated states of being.

Our Inspiration
This initiative was born from lived experience and inspired action. In 2025 the idea emerged among several youth to combine athletic endurance with service — youth supporting youth through a physical challenge that symbolizes resilience, commitment, and transformation. The inspiration came from one in our own youth community - James - who courageously ran a marathon while undergoing chemotherapy for a brain tumour, raising significant funds for charity and later sharing his powerful healing testimony in Marco Island 2023. Moved by his example, we began imagining what it could look like to have youth run for other youth and provide them the opportunity to be a part of this transformative work. Now, at the Midnight Sun Marathon, this vision is becoming reality. Youth are stepping up, training, running, and fundraising — embodying the very principles of discipline, intention, and transformation that Dr. Joe’s work teaches. This fundraiser represents the first step in what we envision as a growing movement of youth-led service, empowerment, and global impact. |  |
How Funds Will Be Used
 | Every dollar raised through this fundraiser goes directly toward scholarships for young people to attend a Week Long Advanced Retreat with Dr. Joe Dispenza. These scholarships are designed to remove the most common barriers youth face, including financial hardship, health challenges, and difficult life circumstances. Funds will be used to cover:
By covering these essentials, we unlock access to teachings, practices, and a global community that can fundamentally change the trajectory of a young person’s life. At these retreats, youth gain tools for healing, self-regulation, emotional resilience, and conscious creation — skills that stay with them for a lifetime and empower them to become catalysts for positive change in the world. |
Our Call to Action
Fund 15 youth to attend a Week Long Advanced Retreat
