The Living and Layered Retreat initiated a critical dialogue on success and the cruciality of a value-centric approach to life as we stepped into 2024. Guided by April Ballestero, participants delved into the concept of the valuegenic mindset, a transformative philosophy that pivots from self-centered achievements to generating genuine value in all spheres of life. This mindset encourages a shift in narrative from seeking personal gains to contributing positively to the community, focusing on what we can offer rather than what we can obtain.
The practical application of the valuegenic mindset was a core topic of discussion, revealing actionable strategies such as starting each day with a renewed focus on creating value and ensuring that daily actions align with a commitment to positively impact others.

However, embracing this mindset presents its own set of challenges, notably the tension between giving and receiving value, and the pursuit of authenticity in every interaction. The conversation at the Retreat offered solidarity and insights into overcoming these barriers, emphasizing the importance of genuine value creation over personal gain. As the community looks forward to continuing this journey in 2024, the valuegenic mindset stands as a guiding principle towards achieving more fulfilling successes and contributing to a more positive world.
