A pioneering and immersive executive education program with a special invitation to explore the future Gelephu Mindfulness City.
6-Month Hybrid Program
16-24 Participants
Silicon Valley & Bhutan






Your journey begins with Abroad's True Prosperity Assessment™, which evaluates 15 key areas essential to balance, purpose, and fulfillment. You'll be paired with an executive coach who will review your results, help you set personalized intentions, and prepare you for the transformative experience ahead.

Set among the majestic redwoods of Silicon Valley, 1440 Multiversity provides the ideal environment to meet your cohort and engage with world-class faculty in the neuroscience of purposeful, mindful, and compassionate leadership.

Continue your growth with monthly executive coaching sessions. Join an online group session to prepare mentally, emotionally, and logistically for the journey of a lifetime to Bhutan.

At the heart of the program is an 8-night transformational Quest to Bhutan. Immerse yourself in Bhutanese culture and wisdom to uncover deeper truths about happiness, contentment, and fulfillment. Highlights include a private charter and a VIP tour with the Governor of Gelephu Mindfulness City—a pioneering initiative in economic growth, mindfulness, and holistic sustainability.

A portion of your program investment supports Bhutanese spiritual leaders in building a Center for Traditional Wisdom. As a graduate, you'll have lifetime access to this sacred space, supporting the preservation of Bhutan's ancient wisdom for future generations and continuing your inner journey.

Upon returning from the Himalayan Kingdom, integration begins. You'll work with your executive coach to reflect on your Bhutan experience and begin applying new insights, intentions, and goals to your leadership and life.

Return to 1440 Multiversity for a powerful capstone event. Reconnect with your cohort, reflect on your transformation, and retake the True Prosperity Assessment™ to measure your growth. A final in-person coaching session marks the close of your formal journey… and the beginning of a lifelong one.

You'll receive a personalized impact report, and Abroad will share aggregate cohort insights—both quantitative and qualitative—to celebrate collective growth and transformation.

Your journey continues through a vibrant, global community of visionary leaders. Attend exclusive local gatherings, stay connected with fellow graduates, and access Abroad's Connection Concierge, who can introduce you to extraordinary alumni who share your passion for growth, wisdom, and courageous leadership.

You can expect between 16 and 24 participants. Research shows the ideal group size for meaningful community-building is around 25, and we intentionally cap the group to ensure access to places rarely visited by tourists during your Bhutan Quest.
We are intentional about creating the right group dynamics. This 30-minute conversation ensures that this experience aligns with where you are in your life and leadership journey. With a small and highly curated cohort of purpose-driven leaders, we prioritize readiness, impact, and shared values. Bhutan is a spiritual and culturally distinct nation—very different from destinations like Tuscany or the Caribbean—and we want to ensure expectations are aligned so you receive the most from this immersive experience.
Absolutely. Many participants choose to share this life-changing program with their significant other, deepening their connection and shared growth. Others use the experience as a time for solo reflection and personal renewal. We'll explore what's best for you during your interview.
This is much more than a retreat. Coaching is an integral part of the True Prosperity experience, before, during, and after the Quest. Over the past seven years, we've seen that those who engage in coaching see the greatest and most lasting transformation. Our approach blends executive coaching, world-class faculty, and immersive learning, all designed to help you integrate insights into your life and leadership with measurable results.
Our partnership with 1440 Multiversity in the redwoods of Silicon Valley provides a powerful setting for community and learning. Your stay includes comfortable lodging, locally sourced, nourishing meals, and world-class executive education sessions. It's the perfect place to connect, recharge, and set the stage for the journey ahead.
While the King of Bhutan has met our group in the past, we cannot guarantee his availability. As a national leader, his presence depends on his official responsibilities. That said, the spirit of Bhutanese leadership and wisdom will be deeply present throughout your experience as we visit with governors, spiritual leaders, and other local officials.
These sacred centers are led by Bhutanese spiritual teachers who preserve and transmit Bhutan's ancient wisdom traditions to younger generations. As part of this cohort, you will not only experience this wisdom firsthand, but also support the preservation of these traditions for the future.
As part of your program, you'll gain access to Abroad's global network of extraordinary leaders. Through our coaching and enrollment process, we'll get to know your unique goals and challenges, and thoughtfully connect you with aligned individuals who can help accelerate your impact.
