EVOLEAD is a unique personal development program specifically designed for accomplished professionals, entrepreneurs, leaders, change-makers and other pioneering minds. EVOLEAD is for those who want to grow, re-invent the way they operate in the world and unfold their full potential.

With EvoLEAD, we help people unlock their creative powers, connect with their innermost purpose, re-orient & find a new path, and catalyze their personal and professional growth.

Overview over your 3-months EvoLEAD journey
To maximize your benefit from the program, we have structured the curriculum into three phases
I. Preparation
3 weeks, part-time, virtual sessions
The better you are prepared for our intense immersion, the deeper will be your experience. You will get to know your fellow program participants and the team and learn what's important for the upcoming weeks. We cover important aspects such as intention setting, the importance of set & setting for a fruitful journey, how we can understand consciousness and the mind from a scientific perspective, what we know from research what happens with the mind under the influence of psychedelics, what vertical inner development and personal growth is and how we can enable such growth, and we have some reading and prep work for you.
II. Immersion - ceremony
4 days, full-time, on-site retreat
This is where you will meet your fellow program participants as well as our facilitators and guides in-person at our retreat center in the Netherlands. We have a curriculum for you that includes mindset development experiences, exercises around resistance and acceptance, connection & trust building as well as capacity building for dealing better with inner tensions and the difficulties and paradoxes of life and leadership. There is also space for contemplation and journalling to get more clarity around values, vision and purpose. You will experience altered states first-hand through breathwork, mindfulness meditation and movement practice. We support you in your preparations for your psychedelic experience with your self-purchased legal psilocybin-containing truffles in a safe and professional group setting. You will have the chance to dive deeply into unchartered territories of your mind through altered states and contemplative practices. You will do challenging but highly rewarding individual and group exercises to better understand yourself and your special gift to the world, and how you want to develop your leadership. We have space together to start the digestion and integration process, individually, together, and in nature.
III. Integration
2 months, part-time, virtual sessions
After you return from the immersion into your day-to-day life, now is the time to solidify your insights and ensure that you put into practice what you have learned - both in your private and in your professional life. You will receive the necessary support from your fellow group of participants and from our coaches, both in multiple virtual group and in 1:1 coaching sessions where we will continue to guide you on your personal and professional path. A community of like-minded and like-hearted EvoLEADers is waiting for you to support you and to hold you accountable to your own commitments.

Is the evolead retreat program right for your personal growth journey?
We invite you to schedule a call with us. Together, we can explore any questions or concerns you may have. We can explore whether this program is right for you at this time and ensure you feel confident about and ready to embrace this transformative experience.
“We are here to support your exploration, at your pace, with no expectations.” – Patrick Liebl
EvoLEAD BACKGROUND INFO
EVOLEAD was designed for entrepreneurs, organisational leaders, change-makers and other pioneering minds who wish to take the next step in their life: personally and professionally.
We offer an intense multi-week curriculum with training and coaching that leans on the power of altered states of consciousness (ASC) to do transformational work. ASC are conditions that are significantly different from an ordinary waking state. These states temporarily change the overall pattern of subjective experience and allow us to perceive ourselves as well as the world around us from an entirely different perspective. We can take a step back from our “rational minds”, from our routine ways of thinking, feeling, and sensing and hence become emotionally, intellectually and viscerally more receptive to the present moment. With ASC we can truly expand our mindset, grow our inner capacity and work on our personal intention.
At EVOLEAD, we carefully curate a selection of these modalities to create a unique and experiential personal development program. Cornerstones of the program are insights into consciousness development & leadership mindsets, the training of mindfulness & emotional intelligence, and the direct experience of altered states of consciousness through breathwork, meditation, and also support for your planned psilocybin-containing truffles journey in a safe and legal setting with experienced guides and professional staff. All of this takes place in a trusted environment of peers, building a community of leaders and pioneering minds that accompany and support each other during and after the EVOLEAD program.
ALTERED STATES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
We support different “mind technologies” to induce altered states of consciousness and peak experiences, in particular breath- and bodywork, meditation, and we also support you on your psilocybin truffles experience in a lawful setting.
MINDFULNESS CAPABILITIES
We train our participants with different techniques of contemplative practice (e.g. with the ACT framework and HAKOMI-style mindfulness) to become grounded and aware of oneself.
LEADERSHIP COMMUNITY
We assemble a coherent yet diverse group of like-minded leaders who will support each other during and beyond our programs.
MINDSETS FRAMEWORK
We employ frameworks that help you understand what leadership mindset you are usually operating from and explore how you can access higher-level mindsets, such as the systemic-autonomous mindset.

Pricing
Admission
We have two guiding criteria for the admission of applicants to our program: safety and group fit.
Safety:
- Because we want to maximize your safety, we require all applicants to fill out a screening questionnaire on their mental and physical health as well as to undergo a screening call with one of our medical professionals prior to admission. While we strive to adhere to the best known therapeutic practices and professional standards, we do not provide any therapeutic care or clinical treatments for mental illnesses. This is why we do not admit participants with e.g. diagnoses of depression, PTSD, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or anxiety disorders.
Group fit: Curating a good group
- Group dynamics are paramount for a powerful experience – hence, unfortunately, we cannot accept every applicant that passed the medical-psychological screening.
- We aim to assemble a coherent yet diverse group of participants who can support each other during and after the program. We designed the EVOLEAD program for people who are aware of their potential to influence others / their environment / the state of the world and want to responsibly act upon it.
- While many of our clients have a leading role in their relevant social context / organizations (C-level, directors, founders), we judge the appropriateness of our applicants not by their job title but by their willingness and potential to assume responsibility for themselves and for others. Our participants must be willing to enter into an honest, open and sometimes challenging dialogue with themselves and with others. They need to be curious and willing to engage in self-exploration, reflection and deep inner work.
- This is why, prior to final admission, we have individual video / phone calls with every applicant to ensure participant-program fit.
Psilocybin-truffles
We would like to highlight that taking psychedelics (psilocybin-containing truffles) is not the primary goal and intention of EVOLEAD – it is a professional personal and leadership development program with training and coaching sessions over the course of 3 months – think of it as a professional training program that you might know from other organisational and business contexts. However, we support people who want to experience altered states of consciousness in general (breathwork, meditation) and also if they plan to experience psychedelics in a safe and legal setting. We guide and support people who plan to buy and consume psilocybin-containing truffles in a safe and attuned group setting where this is legal (in The Netherlands) and provide guidance, coaching, harm reduction and integration support.
The truffles people consume contain the psychedelic molecules psilocin and its phosphorylated counterpart psilocybin. Once ingested, psilocybin is metabolized by the body into psilocin, and then unfolds its serotonergic effect – what people usually refer to as “the trip”. The dose of truffles that people consume is usually different based on each participant’s individual profile and preferences.
In the Netherlands, psychedelic truffles are legal, while psychedelic mushrooms were classified as a scheduled substance in 2007. The truffles are purchased by each participant themselves from licensed shops in the Netherlands where they are sourced from authorized and quality-controlled manufacturers. We don’t sell and can’t provide you with the truffles but simply create a safe space for you where you can have your psychedelic experience and provide coaching and facilitation as part of our retreat programs.
Safety
We maximize your safety by the right screening, preparation, facilitation, and integration.
Screening:
We undertake a physical / mental health screening via an online questionnaire and a phone call to minimize the risk of any potentially adverse health-related outcome. Clinical evidence shows that psilocybin from truffles is a physiologically safe substance with no known addictive effects (e.g. see here).
Preparation:
Participants will learn about a responsable approach to working with psychedelics (risk and harm reduction). Latest scientific evidence will be presented about the potential upsides and downsides of using psychedelics. In addition, they will receive guidance in how to navigate during states of altered consciousness.
Facilitation:
The ceremonies where participants consume their legal psilocybin-containing truffles are guided by experienced facilitators and guides. Our experts give you enough freedom to make your own steps and will be always at your side in case you need their support.
Integration:
Psychedelic experiences with psilocybin-containing truffles can be very profound and transformative. Journeyers can go through intense emotions days and weeks after their ceremony. This is why we crafted an integration program that will help you incorporate your insights into your life in a sustainable manner.
Privacy
We know very well how important privacy is to most of our clients. We will never share any information about our clients publicly or to any third-party. We will never post photos of participants from our retreats without the prior explicit written approval from the affected participants.
We process personal data (e.g. name, email address) in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (“GDPR”).
Accomodation
The EVOLEAD 4-day immersion takes place in the Netherlands.
Our exclusive retreat centers are located in calm and green environments 30-90 car minutes away from Amsterdam.
The facilities offer a relaxing and private atmosphere with ideal conditions for deep work.
All participants will be housed in simple but high-quality private rooms.
We will offer fresh and healthy drinks and vegetarian food.
Transportation
We will get in touch with you regarding your logistics as soon as you have been admitted to EVOLEAD.
Language
The main language for the group sessions (virtual and on-site) and of the EvoLEAD material is English.
However, our facilitators and guides speak multiple languages and your 1:1 sessions plus individual conversations on-site can be in German, French, Dutch, Russian or Spanish as well. Let us know during the application phase if you have any questions or concerns regarding languages.
Pricing
Our highest aim is to provide a safe and highly customised context for profound self-exploration and transformation. Participating in our program is an investment into your personal development and probably a “once in a lifetime” experience.
The price for the EVOLEAD hybrid 12-week personal and leadership development program depends on your household income and ranges between EUR 3.500 and 5.900 for private payers (self-payers). This includes all costs for the entire program (screening, prep & integration group sessions, 1-on-1 coaching sessions, ceremony, curated content, facilitators and coaches) as well as accommodation, learning material, food, and drinks. Your travel costs are not included in this price and neither is the cost of the truffles (around 50 EUR) which for legal reasons you need to purchase yourself in a licensed smart shop in the Netherlands.
In case your financial situation doesn’t allow you to pay the full price please reach out to us – there is a limited number of stipends available for applicants in low-income situations or from the non-profit, public and academic domains and we will discuss your options with you on an individual basis.
