We are all familiar with the challenges of being human. Habitual responses, strengths and blind spots, patterns we would like not to repeat, biases. Our work is grounded in the best knowledge we have about becoming the individual and team that has consistently sound decisions. What we have done is turn that knowledge into practical tools.

Reclaiming Your Voice, Wisdom, and Agency in Adventure Partnerships

Faint-Heartedness ← Courage → Overboldness

Many people find themselves in relationships with capable, confident, and decisive individuals. While these qualities can be attractive and valuable, they can also create an unintended imbalance. Over time, one partner's confidence may begin to overshadow the other's voice. Ideas go unspoken. Intuition is ignored. Needs remain unexpressed. Decisions become one-sided. The problem being disempowered, is that all parties are exposed to consequence.

This course explores the hidden relationship between over-boldness and faint-heartedness and helps people claim the courage necessary to participate fully in their own lives and adventure relationships.

Drawing from Aristotle's concept of courage, contemporary courage research, relationship psychology, and human development theory, participants learn how to recognize where they have become silent, hesitant, self-doubting, or disconnected from their own insights—and how to restore their capacity to speak, act, and lead from a mindset of authentic courage.

Course Content

This course is for women who are weary of being exposed to hazardous behaviours taking place on your adventures, and your perspective is undermined or overlooked.

By participating in this course you will develop:

a Deep Understanding of the hazards of Faint-heartedness and Over-boldness

Intellectual Courage

Social Courage

Emotional Courage

Intuitive Courage

Agency in Risk Decision Making

Program Promise

The transformation you will foster is not from weakness to strength.

It is from self-doubt to self-trust. From silence to voice. From accommodation to agency. From faint-heartedness to courage.

Human Journey Card Deck (Sold Out!! Pre Order Updated Deck- Fall 2026)
CA$52.50

The Human Journey Card deck is a stand-alone tool and a critical part of deeper explorations we offer at Archetypal called Mindset Awareness for Risk Decision Making. Most situations we find ourselves have potential for undesired consequence. The Card Deck helps us thrive and stay alive by fostering awareness of our limiting behaviours and promoting the kind of balances behaviours that keep us grounded and making our best choices.

Humans, who work and play in all varieties of High Potential Consequence situations (including our relationships) are exposed to the same challenge. Being out of balance. In our western culture, we tend to respond to challenges habitually. The opportunity we have is to recognize all of the skill sets we can use to manage potentially consequential situations and to find the balance among them.

In the Card Deck. There are eight coloured title cards that present our initial guide to the balancing the process of: Acceptance, Courage (Heart based responses), Connection, Self-Awareness, Grace, Truth, Intuition and Peace. Operating in this space is our goal. Of course, the big awareness is that all of these desirable responses to challenges have a an out of balance form; (Denial & Acquiescence), (Faint-Heartedness & Over-boldness), (Isolation & Entanglement), (Insignificance & Self-Absorbed), (Hubris & Martyrdom), (Deception & Disruptive Truth) , (Over-Intellect & Reflexivity) and (Chaos & Over-Order). Recognizing our being out of balance, is where the pithy work comes in.

Each title card has a number of concepts that provide a deeper resolution for the concept. These cards have the potential of helping us deepen our understanding of ourselves within the context of the situation.
