Listening deeply to what wants to emerge 💭

As we approach our 10th Anniversary we are getting ready for a significant shift in our model. 

It’s truly a time for rebirth and we are really excited about it.

Together we’ve learned so much over the past years; 

• that when we move past stress responses of fight, flight and fear to tend and befriend we feel safer and are more resilient
• that together we can support each other through an actual pandemic and create the conditions for people to survive and even thrive
• that we are a place of discovery and practice
• and that getting to know one another more deeply allows us to find the others to achieve our dreams and ease the journey.

One big reckoning of the moment is the shared realization across the community that operating in our existing systems and structures is exhausting, limiting and extremely difficult to navigate.

We are being called to focus on freeing ourselves from structures and systems that are not serving us.

Creating the conditions to truly do things differently requires a new approach to how we use our money and how we engage with one another.

The changing of our name started a journey from the individual to the collective; it is a massive paradigm shift.

Anything in our model that separates us and keeps us in the individual over the collective needs redesign; borders, how we vote, collaboration.

Our pricing structure and revenue model needs iterating to create multiple pathways into the community.

We dialogue across the community, sharing ideas and data, noticing and listening deeply to what wants to emerge. It’s one of our practices and it’s led us to this moment.

The times we are in require a new invitation.

We will be sharing a draft of a redesign of Coralus at the (un)Summit in May. It will be recorded for those who are not in the room. Some of these ideas are actionable in the short term while others will need a bit more time to evolve.

So here we go, transforming is our thing. We can do this. It’s exciting, a bit scary, energizing, and a full-body journey together. 

Reach out to your people, share your ideas.

See you soon (on a call, online, in person).
