12 Days of Presence

Each of the 12 Days of Christmas directly relates to a month of the following year.

In our hustle-and-bustle, new-is-better way of life, this ancient wisdom was buried. Luckily it was not lost completely. Our spiritual teacher, Daniel Goodenough (author of Caravan of Remembering and co-founder of The HuPerson Project), shared it with us and we’ve been using it to transform our own lives.

We share this practice with you via email from December 24th to January 6th completely FREE.

12 Days Of Presence

What if you could be present to the guidance from life so that:

  • Next year is the best year of your life
  • You are prepared, surprised and delighted by the unknown
  • You are recharged, resilient and connected with energy and vitality – for these 12 days, and for the next 12 months
  • You have more space and enjoyment throughout the holidays
  • You lean into the most magical, transformative year you’ve ever experienced
  • You step off the same-old-same-old treadmill and open to the incredible Future that wants to happen FOR you

You will learn the language of connecting to the future that is calling you and up-lift your year.

You will reclaim the original tradition of the 12 days of Christmas to empower, replenish and provide you the space to dance with life and the coming year.

You will radically change the out-dated, depleting paradigm of Christmas – shop, eat, push through, repeat – and instead replenish your energy, your sanity and the sacredness of the season.

Our Commitment To You

We walk you through each part of the process from the prep video that’s emailed on Dec. 21st, through short daily emails from the 24th-6th, to the Epiphany live call on January 6th. We participate in the LinkedIn group daily and answer any questions you might have.

We are 100% committed to helping you shift the paradigm of your life. The mystics say that are the ones we’ve been waiting for – Stephanie and Maren believe that’s true, and NOW is the time.

Your Commitment To You

Show up in your heart and take at least 10-minutes each day for yourself. This commitment will connect you to the amazing future that is waiting for you.

You are not alone, you’ll join an exceptional group of people who are committed, balancing giving and receiving, and celebrating the power of showing up and stepping up together. Join our LinkedIn group.

Make Space For Your Future Self

You push through every bit of the year giving yourself no time or space – “there’s so much to get done!”

You push through the holidays – “gotta get to the other side!”

You move immediately into the new year with big goals and dreams – “this year is the year!”

And you wonder why you are burnt out, exhausted and your goals stay beyond your reach.

Nature does it differently, she plants her seeds in the fall and nourishes them with layers of leaves, debris and snow to insulate and feed them for the winter. They emerge in the spring full of vitality seeking the light of the sun ready to fulfill their destiny of full bloom.

Our process makes space for you the way nature does – so you can connect to the future that is calling you. The one that’s been buried under your to-do list. The one that you feel in your soul.

Each day, for 12 Days, you learn to pause for a moment and listen to the guidance from your future self.

Learn Your Personal Harmony

The Sufi Mystics say that all disease is a result of being out of harmony, out of rhythm.

The 12 Days of Presence is a conversation with each month of 2026. This Ancient Tradition reconnects you to your personal rhythm, while simultaneuosly allowing you to be more aware of, and nurtured by, nature’s rhythms.

This is the foundation for connecting to all you desire AND to experiencing balance and harmony in your life.

Practice An Ancient Way

Each of the 12 Days of Christmas directly relates to a month of the following year.

In our hustle-and-bustle, new-is-better way of life, this ancient wisdom was buried. Luckily it was not lost completely. Our spiritual teacher, Daniel Goodenough (author of Caravan of Remembering and co-founder of The HuPerson Project), shared it with us and we’ve been using it to transform our own lives.

Step Forward With Support

You are used to doing it all on your own. “You got this.” You know how to power through.

It’s not necessary – and it’s actually holding you back. Here, you can relax and know that you are supported.

Working with others on the path makes whatever you do easier and more joyful. Group support has been an essential part of this program since we started and this year is no different.

Connect with Maren & Stephanie, and 12 Days participants in the 12 Days of Presence LinkedIn group.

If you choose to join our Co-Creation Circle, you’ll be working directly with Maren & Stephanie and an invested peer group throughout 2027. This is where we go deeply into the unfolding of your future, the connection between the 12 Days and the 12 Months and your personal conversation with your own future.
