By year 17 we've moved back into heart and we're finding balance in our relationships again and understanding how power plays out in our relationships and how we balance those inter-plays of power.

By year 18, we look forward to our expression as we begin choosing a career direction and finish school.

We begin our lives as an adult by building a vision of what we believe our future adulthood is going to look like, and in the year leading up to our 21st birthday we again spend time putting together all the information we've learned and distilling it down to a single essence that becomes the framework for our understanding of power and success.
