Conscious Intimacy Basic Training · Live Intensive
Come as the character.
Leave as yourself.
Three days that give you the honesty, the boundaries, and the courage to be fully known, so you stop performing connection and start living it.

Why This Exists
Somewhere along the way, you learned to become a character.
A version of you built to fit in, to stay safe, to be accepted. It worked. It got you here. But that character was never you, and carrying it is quietly wearing you down.
You feel it in the exhaustion of being "on" all the time. In the loneliness of being liked for a version of you that isn't real. In the low hum of anxiety that never fully switches off, because some part of you is always managing how you come across.
That is what people pleasing, performing and pretending actually cost you. Not your time. Your aliveness.
Not someone with more to manage. Someone with less to hide.
What It Is
A place to take off the mask.
Three days of guided exercises done in pairs and small groups. Honest conversation, and safe consented touch like eye contact and being held. Every exercise is optional, with the boundaries stated out loud before anyone begins.
It is not a workshop you sit through, though you will learn more here than in most of them. It is not therapy, though people tell us this did in a weekend what years of therapy couldn't.
It is for those of us who hold space for everyone else and rarely get held ourselves.
What Actually Happens
Three days, and each one goes deeper.
Nothing here is a lecture. You are guided through short structured exercises with a partner, one at a time, all weekend.
01
Friday, August 7 · 6 to 9 PM
Taking Off the Mask
The first night is about honesty. In guided pairs, you say the things you normally keep hidden, and you watch the person across from you not flinch.
Most people arrive nervous. Most people leave that night lighter than they have felt in years.
Doors close 6:30 sharp
02
Saturday, August 8 · 12 to 6 PM
The Patterns Underneath
Saturday goes after the habits running your relationships. How to ask for what you want. How to say no without losing the person. What to do with resentment instead of swallowing it.
You practice each one out loud, with a partner, until it stops feeling like a technique.
One hour lunch break
03
Sunday, August 9 · 12 to 6 PM
Being Fully Received
Sunday is the skill almost nobody has: making another person feel completely heard, and letting yourself be heard in return.
The weekend closes with the whole group turning its full attention to one person at a time. For many people it is the first time in their adult life they have been received without having to earn it.
One hour lunch break
Friday's doors close at 6:30 PM sharp. No late entry. Plan your travel accordingly. Once the container opens, it cannot open again.
The Shift
What three days actually changes.
YOU ARRIVE
Exhausted from being "on" all the time
Liked for a version of you that isn't real
Always managing how you come across
Holding space for everyone, held by no one
Swallowing the truest thing in your heart
Fitting in, and still feeling alone
YOU LEAVE
Walking into a room without performing
Saying the truest thing and watching people lean in
Fully seen, and never too much
Receiving support instead of only giving it
Boundaries you can say out loud
Belonging instead of fitting in
The Land
Mandala Springs Eco Village
A regenerative eco village on the edge of Pisgah National Forest, just off the Blue Ridge Parkway. Creek, hiking trails, sauna, cold plunge, and a food forest.
Twenty minutes from Asheville, and far enough out that your phone stops feeling like the center of anything.

Who Holds The Room
Two facilitators. One container.
Ricky Goodall
Founder and Master Facilitator
A former professional MMA fighter across twenty-one fights, Ricky spent years learning discipline and survival before learning a different kind of courage: the kind it takes to be honest in a room full of people.
He created Conscious Intimacy Games and has held hundreds of events across four countries.
Harry Judge
Co-Facilitator
After twenty years as a professional actor and educator, Harry was called to a new expression. He has since trained in breathwork and somatics, shamanism and embodiment, conscious relating, and sacred sexuality.
Harry facilitates the illumination of and liberation from our mental, physical, and spiritual prisons through the irreplaceable medicine of connection.
What Is Included
The weekend is where it starts, not where it ends.
Your place at the three day intensive, plus three bonuses worth more than double what you are paying.
The Core
The Three Day Live Intensive
August 7 to 9 · Mandala Springs Eco Village
Three days in a small room with people who came for the same reason you did.
Honest conversation, guided. Short structured exercises in pairs that get you past small talk faster than you thought possible.
The skills of real relationship. Asking for what you need, saying no, hearing someone fully, and repairing after conflict.
Safe, consented touch. Eye contact, being held, being hugged properly. Every exercise is opt in, with clear boundaries stated up front.
Bonus One
The Five Week Home Program
$297 value · Included free
A five week program you work through at your own pace after the weekend, so the shift becomes permanent instead of temporary.
Two books. The full written body of this work, taking you step by step through the same journey you began at the intensive.
25 guided exercises. Short structured conversations you play with a partner, each one targeting a specific pattern.
A way of speaking that holds up. Five principles for honest conversation that stop being rules and become how you talk.
An AI coach, any time you need it. Trained in trauma-informed and somatic approaches. Work through something at 2am without waiting for an appointment.
Bring one person free. A partner, friend, or family member goes through the whole program with you at no extra cost.
Bonus Two
Three Months of Weekly Live Calls
$99 value · Included free
Twelve weeks inside The Community, our membership. Because the hard part is not the weekend. The hard part is the Tuesday three weeks later.
A live call every Monday. Guided practice online with members around the world. You take part, you do not just watch.
A practice partner each month. Someone matched to you, so you always have a person to do the work with.
A private members app. Where the friendships from the weekend keep going instead of fading into a group chat nobody uses.
In-person events. Come to any Conscious Intimacy Games evening across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
Bonus Three
The Conscious Conflict Certification
$297 value · Included free
A seven week training in the one skill that decides whether a relationship survives. Conflict does not break relationships. Unskilled conflict does.
Stay calm when someone else is not. How to keep your nervous system steady instead of freezing, going quiet, or saying something you regret.
Soften a defensive person. A simple way to reopen a conversation that has shut down, without fixing, forcing, or blaming.
Repair instead of retreat. Turn a breakdown into a clear agreement and restored trust, rather than another thing you never talk about again.
Seven video modules and seven masterclass recordings. Short lessons plus full-length sessions where you watch this handled in real time, yours to keep.

Before You Come
The practical details.
Is this a residential retreat?
No. You attend each day and arrange your own accommodation. Asheville is twenty minutes away and has plenty of options, and Mandala Springs itself offers camping, glamping, and tiny home rentals.
What is the physical boundary?
There is no nudity, no genital touching, no kissing, and no putting your fingers in other people's holes (nose, mouth, ears). Consent is structured into every exercise.
Do I need a partner?
No. Come alone or come with someone. The room pairs and repairs throughout the weekend.
Is this therapy?
No, though people tell us this did in a weekend what years of therapy couldn't. This is practice, not treatment. It does not replace clinical care.
What should I bring?
Comfortable clothes you can move and sit on the floor in, a water bottle, and a layer for the mountains. Bring something to write with.
How do I get there?
445 Stoney Fork Road, Barnardsville, NC 28709. Roughly twenty minutes from Asheville, on the edge of Pisgah National Forest. You will want a car.
