You can feel things are changing in the world. And you want to be part of building what comes next, rather than bracing for it.

This gathering is for you if…

You sense we’ve lost our way, and want to find your own way back to that remembering.
You know you’re here to offer something. You’re just not sure what, or how, or whether it matters.
It’s easy to feel powerless watching the world unravel. What if there’s another way to meet this moment?
You care deeply about the world, and are carrying deep grief. You’re looking for hope.

Many of us sense that the old way of living is coming apart, and that something new is asking to be built in its place. The question is how to meet these times, and what is being asked of each of us.

Across the world, Indigenous peoples offer Earth-based wisdom exactly for these times.

Few speak to these times with the clarity and power of Diné elder Pat McCabe.

Pat McCabe (Weyakpa Najin Win, Woman Stands Shining) is a mother, grandmother, ceremonial leader and a voice for global peace. Of the Diné Nation, she was adopted into the Lakota spiritual way of life. On July 21st, we’re honoured to welcome her into conversation with Rachael Duffy and Michael Denmeade.

For Pat, the paradigm we live in is a choice. She invites us to step into a different way of being, one where our lives become a benefit and a blessing to all life, for those here now and those yet to come.

“How do I become that being, that human, whose presence and way of being supports and causes all other life to Thrive?”
