Shepherd U partners with organizations, destinations, and individuals who share a commitment to meaningful, long-term human wellbeing. These relationships go far beyond one-time immersive experiences; they become ongoing, carefully curated pathways of support, reflection, and real transformation. Together, we create environments where people with wide influence can stay aligned, resourced, and well.
Ater Tumti (Costa Rica)
The Center
Ater Tumti is a sanctuary in Costa Rica, uniquely devoted to healing, transformation, and awakening. Nestled across 23 hectares in the blue-zone region near Sámara in Guanacaste, the land features elevated tree-house accommodations, lush forest pathways, natural springs, and abundant wildlife—offering a rare level of immersion in nature. Grounded in the belief that many of today’s crises—loneliness, mental-health challenges, and our collective disconnection—arise from social, emotional, and ecological separation, Ater Tumti’s mission is to restore wholeness by reconnecting people to themselves, to one another, and to the natural world.
The Partnership
In partnership with Ater Tumti, Shepherd U integrates our transformative immersion programs into their powerful sanctuary environment to catalyze profound inner change. Together, we curate retreats designed not merely for rest or escape, but for deep inner work, expanded awareness, and alignment with purpose. These experiences are created for people from all walks of life, with a particular emphasis on high-impact leaders whose influence ripples outward. Through the synergy of Shepherd U’s guided transformational curriculum and Ater Tumti’s unique setting—tree-houses, maloca ceremonial space, nature immersion, and holistic wellness offerings including yoga, meditation, and sound healing—we deliver signature immersions dedicated to healing humanity and elevating human consciousness across the planet.
The Sentinel (Kalso, B.C.)
The Center
Located on the western shore of Kootenay Lake in British Columbia, the deeply spiritual land and setting itself of the The Sentinel invites profound introspection and renewal. Guided by the core philosophy that healing cannot simply be given but must be discovered, The Sentinel offers a balance of support and challenge, community and solitude, rooted in nature and informed by cutting-edge practices. Â
The Partnership
Through our alliance with The Sentinel, we bring our immersive programs—designed to heal humanity and elevate human consciousness—into a container that is uniquely powerful. The Sentinel welcomes practitioners rooted in ancient traditions and contemporary guidance. Our role is to bring our immersion offering to a setting that already holds gravity and integrity. The collaboration is based on mutual support: resources, space, intention—shared rather than advertised.
What matters here is less the program and more that whatever work arises, the land, the facilitators, the field, and the participants are aligned—without hype. This partnership is about holding a container for honest attention, honest transformation, and honest connection—with the land, with community, and with whatever life is asking of each person.
