We are seeking to change our social, economic, and political systems so they work in synergy and mutuality with Earth\u2019s systems. Our work is imbued with purpose and values.<\/p>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\">But sometimes, it\u2019s as if we are holding the world\u2019s future in each action and decision. We can feel the raging rapids of dominant power structures and extractive systems. Amidst this pressure, it takes our integrity and endurance to maintain our vision and navigate\u2014and sometimes fight against\u2014the currents. That force can erode even the strongest of lifelines, sometimes untethering us altogether.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"preSlide slideIn\">Here\u2019s what you can expect:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"preFade fadeIn\">An intentional, supportive space with collective agreements on how we be together<\/li>\n<li class=\"preFade fadeIn\">Experienced and responsive facilitation<\/li>\n<li class=\"preFade fadeIn\">Clear communication with open invitation for feedback and questions<\/li>\n<li class=\"preFade fadeIn\">Body-centered (somatic) practices adaptable for different needs<\/li>\n<li class=\"preFade fadeIn\">Partner and triad activities and discussion time<\/li>\n<li class=\"preFade fadeIn\">Journaling and creative expression<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"preSlide slideIn\"><strong>Some questions we\u2019ll ask:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"preFade fadeIn\">What is your purpose? Why are you doing this work?<\/li>\n<li class=\"preFade fadeIn\">What are your greatest ideas? Your boldest visions for this work?<\/li>\n<li class=\"preFade fadeIn\">Who are your people to help make that a reality?<\/li>\n<li class=\"preFade fadeIn\">What are your cultural practices? What is the culture that nourishes you and supports your purpose?<\/li>\n<li class=\"preFade fadeIn\">Where are your boundaries? What tells you they have been crossed? What do you need to enforce them?<\/li>\n<li class=\"preFade fadeIn\">What if you felt wholly supported at work?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"preSlide slideIn\">Our requests are:<\/h3>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\"><strong><em>Balance rigor and care.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-rte-list=\"default\">\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\">This is an invitation to commit to this process for yourself and your community. Be mindful of your energy, needs, and boundaries. Consider this space the training ground for what you hope to bring forward outside the space.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\"><strong><em>Show up for the entirety of the process.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-rte-list=\"default\">\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\">With the exception of situations out of your control, we request that you commit to being at every session, even if that means you\u2019re there at 5% capacity or less and need to have your video off. If there is a situation out of your control and you cannot attend a live session, you will have access to a recording. However, the breakout rooms will not be recorded to preserve confidentiality and also due to Zoom functionalities.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\"><strong><em>Offer your gifts.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-rte-list=\"default\">\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\">What happens in this process will be because of the unique collection of individuals gathered together. We want your presence and perspective to shape what emerges.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"preSlide slideIn\">How do I know if this is for me?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\"><strong><em>Can I show up?<\/em> <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-rte-list=\"default\">\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\">A weekly commitment for 6 weeks is no small ask, but we\u2019ve seen that the container is stronger if people are consistently present. Carefully consider your other responsibilities and obligations and decide whether you have capacity to prioritize these sessions.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\"><strong><em>Am I willing to join an embodied and experimental space with new community?<\/em> <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-rte-list=\"default\">\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\">It might feel uncomfortable to be practicing new things, like being in your body, while being among new people. Consider whether you have capacity at this time to go deep and open to receiving this experience.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"preSlide slideIn\"><strong><em>Trust\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\">\u2026if your answer is \u201cno\u201d to any of these questions, or this experience as a whole, then it is not aligned for you at this time.

We seek to contribute to wealth redistribution while also upholding principles of interdependence and abundance.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\">We are in a major economic transition from an economy of extraction and exploitation to an economy of reciprocity, regeneration, and collaboration. While we build the next economy, we\u2019re still faced with the material needs and constraints of our current one.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\">We hope that these options make space for a range of financial situations while still ensuring that we feel fairly compensated for our time, experience, and effort\u2014an important ingredient to be able to keep doing this work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\">Please choose the option that feels intuitive to you and your circumstances.
