About

At the center of what we do is “intentional community.” What’s that? It’s just a fancy way to say “a bunch of people who come together around shared values, aspirations and a commitment to not just talking about doing something, but actually doing it.” Together! And, what’s that thing? Well, for us, it’s the daily practices, mindset shifts, and bigger actions that help people live better lives and make a meaningful difference, however each individual expresses that.

Our community is thousands strong and global. You can find us in big cities and small towns all over the world. A great place to “ease your way in” is to join our virtual community (below). It’s totally free! And, you’ll get an invite to our private Facebook group, where you can introduce yourself and find others to share, inspire, and support each other.

We are also huge believers in good old-fashioned “on-the-ground,” face-to-face relationships (though for now, for obvious reasons, we’ve gone largely virtual, but that’s not forever). Online is a great place to start, but nothing beats a mug and a hug IRL (for fellow middle-agers, that means “in real life.” lol). So, once you’re in our online community, there’s a good chance you’ll be able to find other GLeePers near you and, who knows, maybe even become friends, co-work or have regular GLeeP-Ups!

How do we keep our incredible community inspired, informed, and growing? Well, in addition to creating online and in-person opportunities to gather and learn, one of the ways is by finding deeply-authentic and inspiring teachers and people living extraordinary stories, then sharing and amplifying their voices, stories, and ideas through our Webby-nominated, top-ranked Good Life Project podcast, email and social platforms.

We’ve been on a bit of a quest to find what we call “embodied teachers.” People who don’t just talk the talk, but also walk the walk. You know, those amazing humans who you just sense have figured something important out by the way they live their lives and make meaning. Then, we cajole them into our studio (or, these days, our “virtual studio”), or sometimes travel the world to co-create in-depth, unscripted, often deeply-moving and fiercely wise conversations. We remain committed to sharing a diverse array of voices, from people of all backgrounds, genders, orientations, and experiences.

The Good Life Project podcast airs twice a week, on Mondays and Thursdays. You can listen on this website, or find links here to your favorite podcast/audio-listening apps. If you are interested in being a guest or pitching a guest, kindly follow the submission guidelines here.

Building on our community, media and conversations with luminous humans, we also love to create practical and powerful tools, programs, and trainings designed to help people live more engaged, connected, and vital lives.

Over the years, we’ve crafted and offered everything from weeklong international retreats to weekend deep-dives, 3-day strategy sessions, 6-month to yearlong masterminds, and more. Our five-year run of Camp GLP – a 425-person adult summer camp – offered hundreds of activities and workshops on everything from awakened work to mindset, movement, social change, and relationships. We’re always exploring new ways to not just gather, but learn as a community.

We’ve also designed, built, and facilitated a variety of virtual programs focused on everything from conscious lifestyles, brand-building to movement-building, and learning how to tell your story in a powerful way.

Toward the end of 2018, we premiered a new suite of groundbreaking tools and programming designed to help you not only answer, but build your life around one of the biggest questions we ask, “what should I do with my life?” We call these your SPARKETYPES. You can take the Sparketype Assessment and learn more here.

And, of course, we’re always working on new ideas and offerings, so be sure to join our email list so you’re always in-the-know.

We come from all walks of life, nearly every continent, age, gender, sexual-orientation, ethnicity, faith, and more. We are different in so many ways, yet united by our shared humanity, our belief about what really matters, and lens on the world. We celebrate and embrace individuality, equality, passion and compassion, meaningful contribution, advocacy, agency, inclusivity and diversity, and seek collective elevation. We all rise together. We strive to come from a place of integrity, to be vulnerable and open to truth and change (because nobody gets it right all the time, let alone some of the time and change is hard). To be good friends. Oh, and we love to laugh (especially at ourselves). And, love to love. Even when things are hard. Even when life feels groundless. Even when every moment of every day seems to keep offering up “opportunities to grow.” Because that’s when it matters most.

Good Life Project was founded by wife and husband team, Stephanie and Jonathan Fields. They live in Bulder, Colorado, have one amazing kid, and a small handful of plants they’ve been desperately trying to keep alive for years.

After a career in clinical nutrition, followed by a decade navigating the crazy spin-cycle of the New York restaurant industry, Stephanie brings her extensive background in service, community-building, delight-driven event production, and experience design to GLP.

A pathological Maker, Jonathan can’t stop creating new things, from businesses to books, tools, programs, media, and moments that, in some small way, help people live better lives. His blood type is 72% dark-chocolate.

They are joined by a small group of amazing humans that help make GLP the powerful source of community and growth that it has now become.
