The Driven Young Program

Our flagship personal development weekend designed and created for Australians 20-34.

Hey Legend!

What is the Driven Young Program?

The Driven Young Program is a dynamic, two-day personal development weekend designed to kickstart your journey with Driven Young. Tailored for ambitious individuals 20-34, this immersive experience blends growth, connection, and practical skills to elevate your personal and professional life.

Over the course of the weekend, you’ll engage in practical workshops led by Byron Dempsey, covering topics like mindset, personal values, and addressing the beliefs about yourself. You’ll participate in team challenges, breath-work sessions, and masculine & feminine circles, all aimed at fostering deep connections so you can be your authentic self with people your age.

You’ll also gain hands-on experience through interactive exercises and reflective activities, ensuring you leave with actionable skills and clarity. Throughout the weekend, you’ll be supported by Byron, his team, and dedicated volunteers who have all done the program themselves, all in a beautiful hotel setting with meals included.

By the end of the Driven Young Program, you’ll have a solid foundation in personal development, meaningful connections, inner child work and practical skills to apply in your everyday life.

Program Outcomes

Driven Young follows 4 core pillars, there are what our members get when attending the program.

Clarity

This pillar is all about helping participants get a clearer picture of who they are and what they want from life. It’s like taking a foggy mirror and wiping it clean. In this pillar, we focus on navigating your 20’s through self-discovery, via experiential learnings and introspection - with the aim to identify passions, values, and goals, making it easier for participants to make decisions that align with their true selves and their career. By the end of the experience, you’ll have a personal roadmap - kind of like Google Maps, but for navigating life’s big questions.

Growth

Growth is the action-driven heart of the program. Here, we challenge participants to step out of their comfort zones and engage in new experiences that foster skill development and personal expansion. There will be opportunities for you to step up as a leader, develop your communication style and try new hobbies. This is your chance to inject some adventure into your life and enter the growth zone.

Connections

This pillar is the pulse of our community-centric approach, where the magic of networking meets the power of belonging. We create a series of "Third Spaces" through intentionally designed activities that encourage vulnerability and sharing. We focus on building a community that goes beyond casual networking; it’s about creating opportunities for both personal growth and professional advancement. This network acts not just as a social circle but as a launching pad for countless opportunities, providing a foundation of support that makes all the difference in navigating your 20’s

Thrive

Thrive is where everything comes together—participants are in alignment with their newfound clarity, growth, and connections. At this stage, they are energised in life by the momentum they've built, equipped with a robust toolkit that includes skills like confidence, allowing them to speak up and It's about moving forward with a sense of purpose, feeling aligned with personal and professional goals, and living authentically with the full support of their community.

Each day is an opportunity to apply what they've learned, to experiment, and to refine their approach. The Thrive pillar ensures that they not only envision a fulfilling future but also have the practical means and the community support to make it a reality. They're not just dreaming about a better life; they're actively constructing it, fuelled by passion and propelled by a network of like-minded individuals.
