Luck isn’t random. It’s designable — if you know where to look and what to build.
This 90-minute workshop reclaims serendipity as a practical skill for navigating AI-mediated systems. Using Rethink Next’s Amplified Self framework, we’ll work with three hands-on tools: Postcards from Possible Futures, the Real Options Canvas, and the Signal Garden — to map hidden opportunities, design low-risk experiments, and decide what to prune, watch, or water next.
Part of the 2026 EPIC International Summit, April 27-29 at Rancho Tajiguas Preserve, Santa Barbara County. Three-day conference ticket required. Contact us about friends-of-the-family pricing or register at the EPIC site.
