Send me a text!Cultivating an intentional community is a powerful and critical antidote to the disconnection fed by our current societal structures and now is the time to cultivate. I say that because we're living in a time where those structures are breaking down. Our individualistic, hierarchical culture is hitting its limits, and it feels rather like it's composting itself. But compost makes great soil, and with intention, we can use that breakdown to grow something new.In this episode of Unlimited, I invited sisters Nancy and Amy Harrington to join me in a conversation about cultivating intentional community and the shifts that support connection, collaboration, and care.Some of what we talk about in this episode includes:Rebuilding trust in relationships with other womenRedefining leadership—from hierarchy to a circle of self and co-leadershipDeveloping community agreements rooted in consent, care, and shared responsibilityPracticing the power of asking, receiving, and mutual supportThrough this episode, you'll gain inspiration and ideas for building community rooted in belonging, consent, and care. LINKS TO REFERENCES MADE IN THIS EPISODE:262 Women's Project with Deb DrummondDia Bondi – Communication CoachBecky MollenkampCher Hale – On the Death of Mentorship CONNECT WITH AMY AND NANCY:WebsiteFacebook   LinkedInInstagramThe Passionistas Project Sisterhood CONNECT WITH VALERIE:Ask Valerie (anonymous form)Sign up for Valerie's newsletterApply to be coached on the podcastSchedule an exploration callListen to the Unlimited PlaylistSupport the show

In this episode of our New Earth-ing series, I talk with Bob and Marissa of Earthseed Ecovillage about the real, on-the-ground experience of living in intentional community. We get into their mission of creating deeply connected lives—not just with each other, but with the Earth and the broader community.We talk about how they self-govern using sociocracy and holacracy, the difference between discussion and proposal (and why that matters), and how finances are organized in a shared, cooperative way. I love hearing exactly how people are carving out new ways of living—how we can evolve old systems into something new, and yet somehow ancestral at the same time.We also explore what it means to develop a kind of natural ecology of spiritual and daily practices that grow through the process of living together. And if you're curious about joining or starting an intentional community, Bob and Marissa offer three things to consider before you take the leap.Check out the Earthseed Ecovillage: https://earthseedecovillage.com/Like the show?

Today I'm joined by Teddy Pierce, author of Dethrone Davos: Save America, to discuss the shocking waste, fraud, and abuse that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has been uncovering. From reckless spending to blatant money laundering, we're breaking down how our government has been misusing our hard-earned tax dollars—and why this corruption must be stopped. Transparency and accountability aren't just buzzwords; they're essential for restoring actual integrity to our system. Tune in as we expose what's really going on behind the scenes and why this fight matters for all of us.—Buy Teddy's book, Dethrone Davos: https://www.amazon.com/Dethrone-Davos-America-Theodore-Pierce-ebook/dp/B0D5NKGGNC—https://www.thebrandsunday.com/collections/all

Sometimes, joining a group of people can be overwhelming and uncomfortable. It might seem easier to just withdraw from the crowd and walk through life independently. But Jesus never called people to follow Him alone. We were created to walk through life with the encouragement and support of a faith community. Join us as we learn how to prioritize intentional community in our lives.

In this episode, Stewart Alsop talks with San Naidoo, who is developing foundational infrastructure for what he calls Civilization 3.0. San shares his journey from tech entrepreneurship to his life in a rural South African village, covering topics like sacred dance, intentional communities, and composting capitalism. Their conversation explores the decentralization of economic and social systems, the influence of empire culture, and the importance of fostering relational fields as we look toward a regenerative future. To learn more about San's work and updates, you can follow him on Twitter at @regencrypto.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 Introduction to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast00:40 Starting a Tech Shop in Argentina02:32 Exploring Sacred Dance and Tango09:04 Building Infrastructure for Civilization 3.010:49 Intentional Communities and Crypto Adventures18:25 Revolutionizing Money and Community Models31:41 Networking and Intentional Communities32:40 Creating a Node and Land Trust33:35 Historical Perspectives on Land and Labor35:34 AI, Productivity, and Modern Slavery38:37 CommuniTrees: Business Models and Regenerative Practices41:30 Crypto, Real World Assets, and Cultural Lag51:23 The Role of Cities in Future Communities55:58 Reflections on Argentina's Agriculture and Economy58:59 The Importance of Relational Fields01:01:16 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsKey InsightsThe Vision of Civilization 3.0: San Naidoo explores the concept of Civilization 3.0, an evolution toward a regenerative, interdependent society. This future civilization is one that could integrate the community-oriented values of tribal systems with the structural strengths of empire, re-envisioning how communities relate to land, economy, and each other. San's idea is to foster sustainable, resilient societies through intentional communities that are economically and ecologically regenerative.Intentional Communities and the Challenges of Cohesion: Reflecting on his own experience with intentional communities in Argentina and South Africa, San notes that successful communities require strong foundations in shared values and clear communication. The biggest obstacle is often navigating human dynamics and creating frameworks that support clear conflict resolution, goal alignment, and harmonious co-existence. His experiences highlight the importance of vision, shared meaning, and structured processes for sustainable community building.Composting Capitalism as a Path to Regenerative Wealth: In his work, San advocates for "composting capitalism," a playful yet powerful concept of redirecting resources from the current economic system to nurture regenerative systems. His idea focuses on investing in land and initiatives that prioritize ecological and social health, thereby creating wealth that fosters life and interdependence rather than extraction and profit for profit's sake.Tokenization of Land Through Fractionalized Real Estate: One innovative approach San proposes is using crypto and blockchain technology to fractionalize real estate, allowing individuals to invest in regenerative land projects. Through tokens representing square meters of land stewarded by intentional communities, investors could support regenerative land trusts while sharing in the long-term value of community-centered land development. This concept brings finance closer to tangible ecological projects, offering a sustainable model that rewards both investors and the planet.The Power of Relational Fields in Sustainable Culture: A central theme in San's vision is the “relational field”—the depth and quality of relationships among individuals and communities. He believes that fostering strong, meaningful connections is key to a regenerative society, where people interact as interconnected individuals rather than isolated consumers. This concept highlights the need to create environments where mutual care and support are embedded in daily interactions, contrasting with the transactional nature of mainstream culture.The Edge Walkers' Role in Cultural Transformation: San speaks about "edge walkers"—individuals and projects at the fringes of the mainstream who are experimenting with new cultural, economic, and ecological paradigms. While often overshadowed by louder, profit-driven entities within crypto and tech, edge walkers embody the regenerative culture that could eventually replace unsustainable systems. Networking these innovators could strengthen and accelerate systemic change.A Decentralized, Harmonized Future Beyond Empire: Looking at history, San contrasts the hierarchical, extractive systems of empire with the collaborative, interdependent nature of tribal cultures. As society shifts away from centralized power structures, he suggests a planetary culture that integrates the strengths of both. This future civilization would honor the planet's interconnectedness, leveraging decentralized networks to sustain a complex, self-regulating, and resilient ecosystem that could avoid collapse and facilitate lasting well-being.

How to discern when to share the Gospel? How to form an intentional community? These are the topics on our next edition of Beyond Damascus.

In his early twenties, Dave never really felt like he wanted the same things that everyone else wanted out of relationships. During that time he was mostly single and would find himself breaking off relationships after a few months, before they got serious so nobody got hurt too badly. He wasn't really wanting to find "the one" even though that's what it seemed like he was supposed to be doing. In his mid-twenties he started finding communities that were at the intersections of sex-positivity, neo-tantra, and polyamory. The support of these various different intentional communities opened Dave's world up to a completely different way of forming relationships and connections. Today, while Dave identifies as a solo polyamorous person, he is much more focused on creating healthy intentional communities that support learning, living and loving authentically as the imperfect humans we all are. Dave Booda is a writer, musician and social entrepreneur. He is the co-founder of IntimacyFest and hosts The Darkness Experiment. He has led over 450 workshops on connection, touch and relationships and has consulted for and facilitated experiences for companies, communities, retreats, festivals, conferences, birthday parties, weddings, funerals, and gatherings of all kinds — with the intention to inspire authenticity, connection and group cohesion. He has published over 200 essays for boodaism.com and played over 1000 shows as a touring singer/songwriter. He is a former Naval Officer and graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, currently serving on the board of directors for the Foundation for Intentional Community while living in rural San Diego, California.

In this episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, we had the pleasure of sitting down with TaRita Johnson, Senior Vice President of Talent and Diversity at The Right Place, a Michigan-based economic development organization. Throughout her career, TaRita has championed diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and has helped organizations grow by embracing a more diverse workforce. She shared her insightful journey, revealing diversity's critical role in creating thriving, successful workplaces, and she introduced us to her powerful leadership model: VOICE. Watch this podcast here TaRita's Journey: A Commitment to Building Inclusive Communities From the beginning, TaRita's path has been shaped by her passion for promoting equity and opportunity. She shared with us how her early career experiences, paired with her background in education, shaped her belief that talent comes from all walks of life and that it's the role of leaders to create environments where all individuals feel valued and heard. Having spent years working in roles that intersect leadership, human resources, and diversity efforts, TaRita emphasized how essential it is to build intentional communities within organizations. She explained that DEI is not just a strategy but a core component of business success, enabling organizations to unlock new perspectives, ideas, and approaches. This philosophy has driven her work at The Right Place, where she is tasked with developing programs that help businesses attract, retain, and elevate diverse talent pools. In her role, TaRita tackles not only the recruitment aspect of diversity but also the equally important work of fostering belonging within an organization. She stressed that companies must focus on hiring individuals from diverse backgrounds and creating inclusive environments where employees feel empowered to contribute their full selves. VOICE: Vision, Open to New Ideas, Intentional Community, Compassion, Emotional Intelligence One of the most intriguing aspects of our conversation was TaRita's introduction to her leadership philosophy, which she sums up with the acronym VOICE. She explained that This framework serves as a guide for how leaders can foster diversity and inclusion in the workplace while empowering their teams to thrive.

Intentional Community

On Carol Perry's communal farm there's ‘no loneliness, and no mortgages'. It's a long way from the life her parents expected her to lead, and she got there after an overseas motorbike tour and teaching in a war zone

But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. 35 And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. 36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” 37 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”—Matthew 22: 34-40

Early in her career, very early, Katie McCamant visited Copenhagen.  She was an architecture student studying abroad.  In Copenhagen she learned of a new housing model called co-housing -- a small intentional community of private homes clustered around a shared space. Common space usually includes a large kitchen, dining area and other common facilities, but will vary depending on each communities' wants and needs. This was a brand new concept with just 8 projects built in Copenhagen and nowhere else in the world. Katie was wowed.  She was interested in housing in architecture and this model made so much sense to her.  So she wrote a couple of books and built a career on helping people build their own cohousing community, advising them from soup to nuts.

Scripture: Acts 2:42-27 As Jesus leaves his followers to go be with the Father, he calls them to continue the work that he started and live as his representatives here on Earth. Their immediate response was to create a community. The description of this first church community reveals to us that community is an intentional work by both God and his people.

In the last episode of season 5, we looked into a Boulder, Colorado community then known as Divine Madness and led by Marc Tizer, usually referred to as 'Yo'. Its members were recognised for some amazing results in ultramarathons. At the time of researching that episode, updates about the current status of the group were hard to come by.Deru Youmans came across a listing for 'The Retreat' in the Gila National Forest on the World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms (WWOOF) website, and it sounded amazing. Their recent experience in this remote community had them very concerned for others who might come across a similar listing in the future.Full episode page here.
