What Some of Our Amazing Members are Saying
Before PRDX
“When I walked into the PRDX collective at the beginning of this transformative weekend, I did so with a profound sense of loneliness. It was a loneliness that I hid in a corner for survival. I pushed forward and persevered, but never quite got rid of that inherent loneliness. I thought I was walking this walk alone.”
After PRDX
“The PRDX collective has shown me I'm not alone. There are so many other beautiful and impassioned entrepreneurs who are also on a mission to change the world through more conscious leadership. I was at breakfast this morning (at the retreat) and walked out with a new lobbying partner for an initiative in DC. Through this learning, and being able to receive companionship in entrepreneurship, I am so inspired to move forward after today. I know the ability to receive my fellow entrepreneurs on their own path and walk that path together will make the PRDX collective and all of its members unstoppable.”
-Justin Dent, Founding Executive Director, Outschool.org
Before PRDX
“Being an entrepreneur can feel really isolating sometimes, or lonely, or just so stressful because we carry the weight of the world on our shoulders. “
After PRDX
“The PRDX collective is the absolute best because it's a group of amazing entrepreneurs who are doing remarkable things in the world, creating ripple effects everywhere. To be in a space with so many inspiring leaders and to share experiences, to share insights, to share ideas, is the biggest gift that any entrepreneur or leader could ask for. To think what can become possible when we not only see our roles as individual leaders but as a collective is truly what I believe is going to take what we're all doing and explode it in the world. We'll see a different future because of it.”
-Dr. Ilana Nankin, Founder & CEO, Breathe for Change
Before PRDX
“Before PRDX I saw myself starting to take a backseat in my job and my life, starting to let things happen to me. That started to become frustrating because it almost felt like a lack of control.“
After PRDX
“What I’m taking away from this retreat is that if I just follow my instincts I have what's necessary inside of me to continue growing as a leader and learn how to become who I need to be to keep my life moving in a positive direction- to keep my company moving in a positive direction. It sounds simple in hindsight, and I think most breakthroughs are, but to feel it? That’s where the work that we did this weekend came in. It embedded itself within me.”
-Niko Skievaski, Co-Founder & President, Redox
Before PRDX
“I have a really strong work ethic and I’ve long thought “work above all else''. That's really how I prioritized my life and it’s brought great success…”
After PRDX
“But through PRDX I've realized there's a whole other aspect of living. This is the best thing I’ve done for personal development in the past 10 years. PRDX has been a pretty huge change in how I approach life and work.
I’ve since found a much better union and calm, really, between my priorities in my personal life and my priorities in work. In many ways, they’ve actually all become one. We’re spending time differently at work now- we’re spending more time talking about feelings and checking in and things I never would have done before. Interestingly, the team is responding super positively. Work is a really happy place to be and everyone is super jacked.”
