Be The Change
co-creating transformational community & culture
Be The Change gatherings grew out of our desire to come together with others who are also passionate about making a difference in the world through engaging and embodying three levels of transformation – personal, community, and systemic. The gatherings provide hands-on exploration of personal and collective transformation practices, and support the forming and deepening of interdependent community.
Be The Change is:
- a laboratory for transformational learning and collective empowerment
- a call to embody your vocation in service to a world that works for all life
- a celebration of the joy, creativity, and liberation of living authenticity



Together, we embody and integrate a range of approaches and practices for whole-person and whole-system transformation, including:
Personal / Inner Transformation
- Deepening Self-Connection and Self-Empowerment
- Clarifying Life Purpose and Vision
- Internal Family Systems Therapy
- Meditation and Mindfulness
Interpersonal / Community Transformation
- Co-Creating Conscious Community
- Nonviolent Communication
- Process Work
- Collaborative Decision-Making
- Conflict Facilitation
Systemic / World Transformation
- Addressing Power and Privilege
- Whole-System Social Change
- Collaborative Economics
