Life Coaching & Radical Rest
Create a life that feels expansive, grounded, and fully your own.
The Reserve33 Sovereigns. Your life. Force multiplied.
Reserve33 is our deepest level of support: a private, twelve-month executive coaching, life management, and leadership immersion for seasoned queer, trans, and nonbinary executives, entrepreneurs, and social change leaders. Membership is permanently capped at 33 Sovereigns.
You've built the career, the organization, the reputation. Too often, that comes at the cost of your rest, your health, and the dreams you set aside to carry everyone else. Reserve33 is a year to step outside the urgency and exhaustion of traditional leadership culture. Through coaching, immersive travel, guided reflection, community, and curated experiences, you reconnect with yourself and build a life as well-designed as your leadership.
As a Sovereign, your year includes:
- Monthly 1:1 executive and life coaching with Sir BQD, plus situational support for the decisions that can't wait.
- Up to three Sovereign Visioning Sessions, deep strategy sessions that map your life, leadership, and next evolution
- A LiveBQD Concierge Day, a half-day immersion that ends with a bespoke action plan, curated introductions, and 30 days of follow-up
- Access to the Sovereign Sabbatical: a 7-day Radical Rest Reset, a retreat of rest, embodied practice, deep conversation, and adventure with fellow Sovereigns
- Organizational support, covering fundraising strategy, team design, program launches, and the leadership infrastructure your work needs to last
- One strategic project, carried through to completion for you or your organization
- Life management and executive concierge, including travel, wellness, and the logistics of a full life, handled with High Protocol care
- Access to the Black Book, our vetted network of travel and wellness, legal and financial, and social capital and cultural partners, with partner savings passed directly to you
- Growth tracked across our Seven-Thread Architecture: radical honesty, identity, culture, energy, relationships, embodiment, and joy
This journey is a return to yourself. Designed for the leaders that hold our communities, because you deserve to be held too. Let us help you lead from abundance instead of depletion.
Access Life Concierge Services.
You're used to having support at work: a team, a calendar, people who handle the details so you can lead. Most leaders have no one doing that job for the rest of their lives. A life concierge fills that role. It works like a personal chief of staff that handles the planning, booking, sourcing, and problem-solving that quietly eats your time.
Need a retreat venue for your team, a trip that actually lets you rest, a trusted lawyer in a new country, or a queer-affirming doctor in a new city? Tell us what you need, and we take it from first search to final confirmation. Every recommendation comes from our vetted network of partners. Any preferred rates we secure go straight to you.
LiveBQD approaches this work through a High Protocol lens: thoughtful, refined, discreet, and rooted in care. As more of us choose experiences over accumulation, how we move through the world matters. Travel and daily life become ritual, intention, pleasure, and presence rather than one more thing to manage. Every detail is designed to give you back your time, so you can move through the world with greater ease, beauty, and connection.
The Concierge Day (A Half- Day Deep Dive Experience)
Every Sovereign's year begins here. The Concierge Day is a focused immersion where we map your full life and leadership ecosystem: your business strategy, your organization, your health and energy, your relationships, and the dreams you've been putting off. We look at where your time is going, what's draining it, and what you want more of.
From there, we build your path forward. You leave with a bespoke action plan with clear next steps, curated introductions and resources from our network, and 30 days of follow-up access to put it all into motion. It also gives our concierge team a clear picture of your life, so the support you receive all year fits how you actually live and lead.
The Concierge Day is included in Reserve33 membership. It's also available on its own for founders, executives, and visionaries who need to go deep on a single problem and leave with clarity, precision, and momentum.
Organizational Coaching & Strategy
Strong leaders need strong organizations behind them. We work with for-profit, nonprofit, and hybrid organizations building sustainable, sovereign solutions for communities of color around the world. Our support spans five areas:
- Transformational Life Coaching & Self-Management. Support for executives and founders who carry too much, so they can lead with clarity and sustain themselves for the long haul.
- Building Transformative Teams. Clear roles, honest culture, and shared leadership, so the organization doesn't rest on one person.
- Fundraising: Institutional & Major Donors. A compelling case for support, a strategic prospect list, and coaching to make the ask with confidence.
- Deep Evaluation & Narrative Shifts. Ways to measure and tell the story of impact that standard metrics miss, in language funders respect.
- Strategic Program Design & Launch. Taking new programs, fellowships, and initiatives from idea to pilot to proven model.
Sovereigns receive organizational support as part of their membership, including one strategic project carried through to completion. Organizations can also engage us directly for focused projects or ongoing partnerships.
TRANSFORM
With a Life Coach
We pair life coaching with Wellness Adventures to accelerate your life. Whether you want to launch a product, grow an organization, or take your career to the next level--this is the spark you've been looking for.
Accountability coaching is not new. It’s been around as long as human relationships. Think about your parents, teachers, friends, colleagues, bosses, partners. All these people have provided structure and accountability in your life. But it's hard to ask others to provide the LEVEL of accountability we sometimes need to get unstuck and take a leap forward. They are, afterall, managing their own lives too.
Even highly motivated people are often juggling a lot of projects. Unfortunately for many of us, the shiny toy syndrome is a challenge. So, staying focused becomes a problem. When we redirect all of our energy into a new project, we often neglect our long-term goals or crossing off critical items on our To Do lists. Remember, the chance of the average person meeting their goals is just 25% if they are motivated. Add a deadline, and you have a 40% chance of task completion. Creating a plan adds another 10 percentage points and that will take you to 60%. But when you add an external third party to review your progress, like an accountability coach, and the probability of completing a task or goal soars to 95%!
The 11-day Radical Rest Reset
Invitation. Only. The Soverign Sabbatical allows you to pause & restore.
Center Your Wellness & Health
We are devoted to the wellness and liberation of queer and trans leaders of color because too many of us carry the stress of our communities on bodies that have never been allowed to truly rest. Our brilliance, our strategy, our care work, and our leadership are often demanded without replenishment, without sanctuary, without recognition of the cost. This retreat is our refusal of that cycle. We believe that rest is not a luxury for our people—it is a political, spiritual, and ancestral necessity. When queer and trans leaders of color heal, the culture shifts. When we are nourished, the world expands. When we reclaim spaciousness, softness, and pleasure, we become unstoppable. This radical sabbatical is an offering: a container where leaders can unravel exhaustion, reconnect to their bodies, and remember the feeling of being held. It is a space designed with intention, high protocol, and reverence—because our healing deserves beauty. Our rest deserves ritual. Our futures deserve leaders who are not simply surviving, but thriving.

Live. Your. Dreams.
We focus on helping our people live their dreams because a dream deferred doesn’t just sit quietly—it erodes us. It dulls our joy, numbs our creativity, and slowly chips away at the parts of us that make vision and leadership possible. When queer and trans people of color abandon their dreams, the whole movement loses a piece of its imagination.
But when we return inspired, resourced, and recommitted to our own desires, we become the kind of leaders who can shift culture and build futures. Pursue the dreams you’ve tucked away. In this retreat, we imagine together. We map the dreams your spirit has been whispering about for years—and we figure out exactly how to make them possible. You deserve a life that feels expansive, alive, and beautifully yours.
Rewire. Your. Mind.
This isn’t a productivity retreat or a traditional leadership intensive. It is an invitation to slow down long enough to hear yourself again.
Over 11 days, we create a spacious container for queer, trans, and nonbinary leaders, visionaries, and changemakers of color to step outside of urgency, performance, and constant responsibility—and reconnect with rest, pleasure, clarity, and intentional living. We begin with an intimate opening dinner and full-day grounding session designed to build trust, care, and connection within the cohort. Together, we establish shared agreements and create the conditions for honesty, reflection, exhale, and transformation.
The days that follow are intentionally spacious. There are no packed conference schedules. No endless panels. No pressure to perform insight or expertise. Instead, participants are invited into a slower rhythm centered on radical rest, embodied practice, deep conversation, joy, exploration, and meaningful connection.
Throughout the immersion, we gather for shared meals, reflection, wellness experiences, creative exploration, and lightly facilitated conversations that help participants reconnect with themselves beyond survival mode. Excursions and adventures invite play, curiosity, softness, and expansion—not as escape, but as practice.
This experience is rooted in the belief that rest is not separate from liberation.
Together, we practice another way of living. One that is slower, more intentional, connected and alive. This is not about optimizing yourself. It's a return to yourself.
Live. The. BQD. LIfe.
