An Urban Sanctuary for Connection, Resilience & Community
In the heart of Zurich, The Island is a welcoming space dedicated to the practice of authentic human connection. Here, individuals, teams, and communities can build resilience, foster empathy, and experience the power of real dialogue.
The Island is a direct response to the challenges of urban loneliness, burnout, and polarization. We offer a place of experience—not theory—where people from all walks of life can learn, connect, and grow together.
Corporate leaders rediscover purpose and presence
Teachers and educators find new ways to connect with students
Youth and young adults build confidence and resilience
Teams learn to navigate differences with empathy and skill
Individuals master the art of connection, and allow life to flow with more ease and joy
The Island is more than a collection of programs; it's a living ecosystem. We intentionally bring together diverse parts of our society under one roof to practice connection side-by-side, because we believe the most profound growth happens when different worlds meet.
The Field Engine
For Businesses & Leaders: We partner with forward-thinking organizations to build resilient teams and courageous leaders.
What We Offer: Immersive trainings, leadership coaching, and the "Leaders' Quest for Fire" program.
The Outcome: This work unlocks the innovation that only comes from a culture of deep trust and connection.
This is connection in action. Every corporate partnership directly enables our work in schools and non-profits, creating a stronger social base for us all.
When no training is in progress, our doors are open for a coffee and conversation.
Creating a space like The Island is a collective act, and it thrives when we nurture it together. We are actively forming partnerships with foundations, companies, and individuals who see the urgent need for a more connected world. Your expertise, network, and support are vital for helping this vision flourish. This is an invitation to join a powerful collaboration and amplify the impact on the well-being of us all.
When conversations feel like battles, the most radical act is to stay human. Our guided experiences teach you how to stay anchored in yourself, even in difficult conversations. From this place of inner stability, you can listen deeply, speak your truth with courage, connect with others, and build bridges of understanding across divides.
In the constant noise of modern life, your inner voice can get lost. We provide the space and guidance to tune out the static, reconnect with your intuition, and find the clarity that comes from within.
Passion isn't something you find; it's something you uncover. Our workshops are designed to help you explore what truly lights you up, reconnect with your purpose, and find the courage to bring more of it into your life.
Connection is a practice, not a coincidence. At The Island, we lead training and courses designed to help you find your people and build genuine relationships, one real conversation at a time.
