Designing Your Life, The Stanford Way
What if you didn't have to have your life figured out before moving forward?
You could be doing well and still wondering what else is possible. You could be at a transition, feeling stuck, considering a new direction, or simply wanting to design the next chapter of your life more intentionally.
Developed at Stanford University, “Designing Your Life (DYL)” programme brings the principles of design thinking to some of the most important questions we ask ourselves — What kind of work and life would feel meaningful? How do I move forward when I don't have all the answers?
Across two immersive days, you will work through a series of conversations, reflections and hands-on exercises that will help you:
understand what gives you energy, meaning and engagement
reframe problems that may have been keeping you stuck
imagine multiple versions of your future through Odyssey Plans
prototype possibilities before making big life or career decisions
leave with practical next steps rather than another abstract plan
After multiple sold-out cohorts in India, Designing Your Life returns to New Delhi from 24–25 October 2026 at The Zorba.
