A FLARE*

Big dreams take big risks🎲

Not the dating a bass guitarist kind (that’s a been there done that lesson, thank you🤦‍♀️), but the step-outside-your-comfort-zone and build the life-you-want kind.

The f*cking scary kind.

The kind that makes a difference.

Facing fears can feel like fuel to the flames🔥 for your next adventure—one that connects you to like-minded friends and sober experiences. We’ll help you embrace this journey with purpose and joy, all without the need for a drink in your hand 🍹🚫

Let’s light it up

Rules are made to be broken. So are limits.

Creativity doesn’t thrive when confined. To let your life full of purpose truly shine, you need space to grow—step outside, fling open those doors, and embrace the world with all its opportunities. Forget the four walls. 👊

Right now you feel like you’re standing on the edge - on the first cobblestone of your great adventure, at the base of a mountain too big to climb, at the top of a slippery slope without the proper protective gear and no idea how to abseil down.

That’s where FLARE* comes in.
