We'll start with getting clear on what kind of community you are longing for & what kind of needs you are actually trying to meet in your life.

We'll take time Remembering - gathering stories of community experiences from our own lives, our ancestors, or stories that we’ve heard of - because remembering helps to bolster and inspire us.

We'll dive into Visioning - getting in touch with our own ‘high dream’ for community in our lives (this could be anything from getting to know your neighbours better, to buying land with your best-friends - there’s no one-size fits all expression of community). Our visions draw us forward.

We'll do some Relationship Ecosystem Mapping - taking inventory of what kind of community you already have so we can identify the gaps & real needs & longings you're holding.

Together we'll identify your Fears, Barriers, and Questions - often naming ‘what holds us back’ is what helps us find a way through.

Whether it’s about security, privacy, ease, introversion, conflict avoidance, or simply feeling like life is too busy, or you don't know where to start - you’re not alone. It’s normal to have hesitancy in shifting up your current patterns.

Your fears and questions will help us source the focus areas for our shared discussion space. We’ll address these in our group coaching calls, throughout our workshops, and in our shared online space where we share resources and support each other in 'real time'.

The truth is, many of us have been raised in contexts where thinking of the collective feels a little awkward, uncomfortable or even terrifying. We'll develop a community mindset and practice moving through the world with a more community oriented posture. Chances are the world will look and feel a little more inviting and welcoming from here on out.

We'll identify your core values & talk about what it looks like when you radically prioritize what you say matters most!

You can expect Planning & Implementation - Starting with small simple practices you can begin on day 1 - we’ll move towards action together.

Throughout the program everyone will come up with some sort of project in which to practice & apply your learning. Don't worry we'll support you in figuring out what this looks like!

We'll talk about clarifying intentions, how to create a compelling invitation, and the steps to designing relationships with integrity!

As we go, our shared online space is a place to share your wins, your questions, and get the encouragement and accountability you need to make lasting change.

Once you're in the work of community building we'll equip you with the Relational Skills to navigate what you might come up against. In particular you can expect tools and frameworks to support you in the areas of:

• relationship design & navigating nuance,

• balancing personal needs with community needs,

• identifying shared values,

• initiating & the art of invitation,

• collective decision making,

• communicating needs & requests & asking for help,

• setting boundaries, and

• conflict navigation.

Lots of people find the skills they build here equally valuable in their romantic relationships, with family, colleagues, and even with their kids!

Along the way we'll touch on themes related to Personal Resourcing - Relationships are hard work & often exploring our community longings brings up all kinds of questions & feelings about our worth & belonging. We’ll explore these themes together as we bolster you to do the vulnerable work of pursuing the connection you long for.

Inevitably things don't go quite as we imagine, or our visions do come to fruition and then something changes. We'll build tools & capacity to pivot, redesign, and deepen & expand your community experiences so that you're equipped long past the 6 months we spend together!
