Liber8’s SAFE Space Training is the outcome of holding space for thousands of clients. Our clients are cancer patients, survivors, thrivers, and caregivers. Many have endured childhood trauma and sexual abuse. They’ve all radically improved their wellbeing as a result of being witnessed and held by our team of experienced space holders through their darkest moments.
We’ve distilled everything we learned about helping people feel seen, heard, and held into a simple framework that works every time. Join the weekend training, and we’ll equip you with our tools, techniques, and processes so you can support your loved ones while thriving in yourself.

Co-founder at Liber8
Raj has invested thousands of hours researching and testing tools at the intersection of ancient wisdom, modern science, and practical healing to uncover the most direct paths to remaining grounded and clear-headed amidst emotional chaos. His inspiration is deeply personal – after losing a close friend at just age 37 to stage 4 cancer, Raj realized his own need to learn how to better support his loved ones through challenging times.
Through 300+ interviews with leading mental health experts on his acclaimed podcast, Stay Grounded, Raj has honed a nuanced understanding of the predictable patterns and drivers behind big emotions. Raj lives the teachings in his monthly “Reflection” episodes, where he transparently shares hard-won lessons from navigating his own emotional triggers and relationships.

Over 2 days, you will be watching live programming and putting what you learn into practice with other partners while simultaneously receiving personalized support from our trained facilitators.
Live practice is an integral part of this training. Expect real-time feedback and guidance so you can see your blindspots and sharpen your skills. By the end of the training, you’ll know how to use the our framework safely and confidently with your family, friends, and loved ones.
For some people, space-holding is a beautiful intuitive gift. You don’t know why, but people instinctively know you’re a safe place where they can confide, open up, and reveal their true emotions.
You enjoy holding space for others. It’s rewarding and you feel privileged to be trusted with someone’s deepest, most vulnerable feelings.
But there are times when you notice a hint of resentment bubbling up. You know you over-give. You know you prioritize the needs of others above your own. You’re aware that being there for others at the level you do can leave you feeling depleted, even exhausted.
And in the back of your mind, you wish someone could be there for you in the way that you are there for them.
It may surprise you to know that some natural space-holders developed their gifts as a trauma response. They didn’t feel seen, held, and heard as a child, so they became the person they needed. These unaddressed needs can turn healing space toxic. They can create challenges such as codependency, overgiving, and an unquenching thirst for love and appreciation.
Which is why training can help.
Our space-holder retreat not only teaches you a framework for holding space, but it also explores your motivations for space holding. During the weekend, you’ll spend time exploring your needs. You’ll learn to identify your triggers and trauma, and most importantly, you’ll discover how to put on your oxygen mask first so you never feel depleted, resentful, or angry again.
A skilled space holder knows that the quality of the space they hold matters. They know they need to be able to put their own stuff to one side and focus fully on the other person.
Unless you intentionally and consciously park your stuff, whatever is inside of you will show up in your healing space. This can look like projections (where you interpret what’s happening for your client through the lens of your own experiences), or triggers (where a client’s thoughts, feelings, or behaviors activates something inside of you).
When your stuff gets mixed in with your client’s emotions and experiences, the healing space becomes cluttered and confusing.
It’s no longer clean!
This is why you’ll spend time looking at the depths of your own heart, pain, and trauma. You’ll explore your triggers too. This process will activate your own ability for self-healing, empowering you as a space-holder.
We’re always looking for qualified, heart-centered humans to join our network of SAFE Space Holders. Hundreds of people come through Liber8’s Precision Emotional Healing process on a regular basis.
We have a track record of recruiting people who’ve been through our training programs. And whilst we can’t make any guarantees, we anticipate paid space-holding opportunities opening up for the right people.
