PeaceBuilder Academy
Stride Impact Labs — Cohort 1
Not another course. A small cohort of builders, weekly coaching with a 7-year peacebuilding practitioner, and an AI engine that does the heavy lifting between calls.
Small-group coaching with Chris Andrade — former U.S. Army Infantry & Military Intelligence Officer turned peacebuilder. Ranger-qualified combat leader, Johns Hopkins MBA & MA, PMP-certified — founder of PeaceBuilder Academy and builder of the AI-powered systems behind StrideOS.
Your AI companion builds the week's deliverable with you — canvas, plan, pitch.
A private builders' group — wins, feedback, and momentum between calls.
Every week ends with something shipped to reality, not a checkbox.
Sprint 1: Purpose & Offer · Sprint 2: Build · Sprint 3: Launch & Sell — Demo Day at week 12.
"When I'm stressed, I usually have a thousand thoughts running through my head. The questions helped me focus on one thing at a time."
Business coaching runs $150/hour — this is 90 days of structure, coaching, community, and an AI build engine for the price of ~13 hours of it.

No — the first sprint includes the purpose and idea-screening work (Module 1 + Module 5 frameworks, AI-accelerated). You need the pull to build, not the blueprint.
The curriculum teaches. The Labs make you ship — coaching, cohort accountability, deadlines, and demo day. The free content stays free; the Labs are the fast lane through it.
Pay It Forward funds scholarship seats in every cohort. Say so in your application — the mission is access, and the pricing funds that mission.
A launched venture: purpose map, venture canvas, offer, pitch deck, and your first real-world sales actions — every deliverable built in your StrideOS workspace, yours forever.
