Midlife Awakening for the Montessori Soul

Online Spiritual Growth Program

June 21, 2022 – June 11, 2023

Have you been so busy helping others you’ve lost track of yourself?

Longing to find your soul purpose and share it with the world?

Are you ready to connect more deeply with the Sacred Universe?

Spiritual Growth Cycle

Midlife Awakening is the sacred passage from early adulthood to late adulthood. It is the soul calling the being into living a more fully-conscious, aligned life. We’ve designed a year of support to help you nurture your soul, connect more deeply to yourself and the Divine Universe, and step confidently into your next phase of life knowing you are in soul-alignment with your purpose.

This program is for you!

Our yearlong immersion in the spiritual growth cycle is for Montessorians who are longing to:

  • Create space to transform yourself and your life.

  • Be present in your body, with your emotions, and to your own inner wisdom.

  • Cultivate connection with your authentic self, your soul, and the Divine Universe.

  • Open to flow, contemplate your calling, discern your path, co-create with the Universe, and share your soul gift with the world.

Emily Leutgeb

“This journey with Syneva and our cohort has enlightened and supported my personal and professional growth. Guided by the wisdom of elders who’ve practiced before us and Syneva’s spaciousness for me at every step along the way. I’m finding within myself new gifts to offer the community and bursts of creative energy for making manifest those gifts within the community. Midlife Awakening for the Montessori Soul reminds me why I fell in love with Montessori education in the first place and rejuvenates my passion for embodying the spiritual transformation of the Montessorian!”

Leah Linebarger

“I was looking for guidance in navigating social, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual transformation through the adult years of life. I have gained a better understanding of who I am, what my story is, and where I still have work to do. A shift in my life since starting the program is in my ability to think, act and speak with accuracy and clarity about what I know and feel. I am having the greatest benefit in spiritual growth through the program as well as in the one-on-one monthly sessions because of the energetic engagement brought forth through the design and intention of each meeting. The meetings not only require one’s whole attention and presence, they can’t be attended with anything less! I strive to carry through with that same spiritual presence each day."

Meet Syneva Barrett, MAED

My Montessori journey has unfolded across many roles and settings including: elementary guide, teacher educator, higher education faculty and program director at St. Catherine University, and as a Montessori school consultant around the country.

My own Midlife Awakening led me on a four year odyssey of the soul including completing my spiritual guidance training through Wisdom Ways Center for Spirituality and my death doula training through the Conscious Dying Institute. It ignited my passion for adult spiritual growth and transformation and gave me a whole new toolkit.

As a Montessori Spiritual Guide, I am passionate about supporting you to connect deeply with your soul and the Divine Universe at this critical point in life so that you can step confidently into late adulthood knowing you are in soul-alignment with your purpose on the planet and ready to share your unique gifts with the world.

Get the support you need this year to transform your life!
