The Living Room
A Year of Practice in Community
From the LLAF Workroom to
Fridays, 9-10am CT
January-June & Sept-December 2026
We've learned. Now we live.
The Living Room keeps your growth alive—with just enough structure to hold you, enough freedom to explore, and a circle of peers who speak your language of change and wisdom.​
Real coaching for the leadership challenges you're actually facing.
With the structure, support, accountability, and joy that makes true fluency take hold.
TWO LIVE SESSIONS EACH MONTH
Friday mornings
9-10am CT
Each month's theme prompts you to look and listen a little deeper to what's happening in and around you.
​
No no formal lessons or homework,, but we keep ourselves accountable by sharing what we're up to and declaring next steps.
FOUR INDIVIDUAL SESSIONS EACH YEAR
Each of you gets 1:1 coaching for your Quarterly Reviews​
Your Quarterly Reviews, with Cecily, provide reflection, guidance, and strategic support.
These personal sessions ensure every season of your year stays aligned with what matters most.
A TRUSTED COMMUNITY
For shared learning and accountability
Fluency requires conversation partners who speak the same language. With fellow LLAF-ers, growth amplifies.
Everything and everyone belongs. Bring your wins, insights, and challenges to the group, and soak in the wisdom that is shared.
GUEST VOICES
TO INSPIRE
Outside perspectives to expand your view
Each season, we're joined by a guest whose work expands our perspective on wisdom, creativity, and leadership.
Artists, thinkers, and futurists whose lives invite us to see and sense the world in new ways.
