“Brand new gathering – WISDOM TRUST – attracts 6-8 figure entrepreneurs for a community and 12-month journey that they’ve been looking for”
Jake Sasseville
From the desk of Jake Sasseville
Savegre de Aguirre, Costa Rica
Dear friend,
If you’re reading this, I'm guessing you want something a little different.
Likely, you’re high-achieving and already impactful.
Despite your success, perhaps you’ve felt moments, or more than moments, of isolation, loneliness, or wanting to be more deeply fulfilled.
When your business first passes the six, then seven-figure mark, you are initiated into that special class of entrepreneur.
You may even have a large practice, host multiple international retreats a year, or have a large team working for you and you might not have scaled the impact you know is possible in your business.
Then, it’s really easy to get stuck in the day to day.
This is even harder as an impact-driven entrepreneur where the business is more than just about profit.
Sure, the revenue is exciting, but there’s a much more purpose-driven (and deeper) game to be played than the one you’re currently playing.
It’s likely if you’re reading this, you’re transitioning into a leader. Titles aside, even if you’re already the CEO or COO, you’re beginning to embody what it means to lead from a spirit of service, and a posture of learning.
You’ve changed. And when you look at the landscape of how you’re spending your time, if you’re honest with yourself, you’re still focused on the doing rather than the being.
And, you’re not being challenged at a peer level with ideas, or audacious perspectives that’ll grow you personally.
You’re likely craving being able to walk into rooms or events and know that not only will you be leveling up, but your way of being is different. People can sense the difference.
Knowing that you can have a deeper sense of fulfillment likely comes from having a vision but being stuck in day-to-day or just not having the community of support, shared values, and shared inquiry that you know at a soul level would transform your life, your business, and your relationships.
So where do you go… to connect with like-minded people, but also cultivate real community. If communities are not committed to learning new things, together, with stakes in the ground where something is — literally — at stake, then it’s just an echo chamber of people hanging out.
We’ve become really good at creating intentional and thriving communities. Not “big” and “better” but nourishing and deeply connected.
Wisdom Trust features members enrolled from all over the world, high-achievers who crave community and a deeper sense of fulfillment.
Coaches serve as mentors, not “know-it-all” coaches but people who have lived experience from Toltec teachers and leading retreat host coaches, international change management consultants, and hospitality executives working in the African continent, former lawyers to wealthy families turned polyvagal experts and horse therapy practitioners, academics with a background in Baha’i-inspired community and capacity building at the regional and national level and operators who have been at the most senior levels in major American corporations.
Wisdom Trust is your invitation to join the highest levels of mastery and support Imiloa has to offer… a growing global ecosystem of professionals out on the leading edge, who have been “there” and done “that,” and want something… deeper.
Besides community, here’s what you also get as part of your membership in Wisdom Trust:
- Your PDAG (Purpose-Driven Audacious Goal) is both metric-based and time-bound and provides fuel for your way of being to transform.
- Monthly Wisdom Calls invite you to chew on life’s bigger questions through an exploration of “Seven Valleys and Four Valleys” as well as other book resources
- Unlimited attendance to Q&A “Ask Jake anything” as your workshopping PDAG and business, get the benefit from a community brain trust available weekly to you
- Smaller pod coaching calls invite you to dig deeper into your PDAG and the practical aspects of it in the community
- Twice yearly in-person retreats (one in the US and one at Imiloa) so that you can relax, recharge, and return to a place of knowing your place in the community.
- One-on-one coaching calls to kick off your membership
- Optional laser one-on-one coaching calls throughout the year at a 50% discount
- 15% off any Imiloa property you book a retreat at
- Unlimited access to the community in Circle, the all-in-one community platform
- Unlimited access to specially produced LABS that are created just for you and your PDAG journey to help support you
When a community introduces the ideas of purpose and transformation, individual PDAGs (purpose-driven audacious goals), and the movement that gets to come about when we’re all supporting each other in a framework for the individual and social transformation of the planet, that community and its members become unstoppable, notable and as they cultivate a future so enrolling, so touching and so inspiring, everyone around them gets moved by it and their way of being transforms in the process.
Welcome to Wisdom Trust.
The modern community for impact entrepreneurs craving community, knowledge, and the opportunity to engage higher-level questions and spiritual principles as they’re writing a next chapter that is both enrolling, exciting, and inviting.
Limited memberships in this year-long journey are available to qualified entrepreneurs who are a culture fit and are committed to our two fundamental human needs: growth and giving.

Looking forward to reviewing your application,
Jake Sasseville
CEO & Founder, Imiloa Institute
Curator, Wisdom Trust
Success on paper often masks a hidden truth—burnout, unfulfillment, and a desire for deeper meaning, connection with community, contribution and being a part of something bigger than just you. If you've sacrificed your big dreams, health, parts of your joy or relationships for the day-to-day pursuit of success, you're not alone. There is a better way.
A Future So Bright Your Way of Being Transforms As you Create It
Chances are, if you're successful and unfulfilled, you haven't created a future worth living into. You find yourself stuck in the day-to-day managing people, tasks, households and relationships despite having a real sense of possibility in your work and contribution in your community.
Imiloa’s Wisdom Trust is a 12-month program of inquiry, a container for community and an a deliberate exploration of how creating what you want directly impacts who-you-have-to-be to experience it. When you have a stake in the ground, something's at stake (PDAG), and not only does everyone around you get to be touched transformed and inspired by what you are creating, who you show up as in this moment can’t help but be transformed as you're creating it. Welcome to Wisdom Trust.
The 5 Key Benefits to Imiloa’s Wisdom Trust
1.
AUTHENTIC COMMUNITY Wisdom Trust offers a vibrant community where high-achievers gather well, fostering a sense of belonging, shared wisdom, and collective strength. It's not just about being part of a group; it's about co-creating a movement bigger than any individual, through Purpose-Driven Audacious Goals and the practical tools needed to make them real.
2.
EXPERT FACILIATION & MENTORSHIP Wisdom Trust provides expert facilitation and mentorship to help navigate challenges as you're creating throughout the year. Tap into collective wisdom and receive practical guidance to accelerate personal and professional growth.

4.
ACHIEVE PDAG Each participant Participants are guided through a proven 7-step CLARITY model to create and achieve Purpose Driven Audacious Goal (PDAG). It's the one goal that if it were to be real in the next 12-months, not only would everyone around you be touched by it, but who-you-are would also transform. PDAG's are designed to create flow state with the community and are a combination of mission-driven and high hard goals.
5.

Together, we'll book guests, resources and source material that will iterate and support whatever is “alive” for the group to unstuck individuals who are sharing in similar challenges.
