Reimagining How We Come Together

Realigning Paradigms and Fostering Generative Collaboration

We guide organizations and communities in becoming more impactful in their practice and enable truly reciprocal, ethical partnerships rooted in life-affirming paradigms.

Paradigm Realignment

Much of today’s work is still guided by square paradigms (mechanistic, fragmented, extractive). Realigning with circular, life-affirming paradigms opens the path for deeper impact, stronger collaboration, and more connected, fulfilling practice.

Generative and Ethical Space

True collaboration emerges when all partners are grounded in circular paradigms, where each partner brings meaningful, complementary contributions. We hold space for these circles to meet and overlap without dilution, assimilation, or appropriation.

A new space of shared understanding, reciprocal contribution, and aspiration emerges, where all partners together uphold the integrity of the collaboration.

What We Offer

  • Provide practical frameworks and associated approaches to allow organizations to examine, reevaluate, and upgrade fundamental paradigms and associated structures, practices, and policies so they can develop (or refine) their own authentic expression of an ecological worldview, living systems thinking, or regenerative approach based on their unique gifts and offerings

  • Help define (or refine) an organization’s vision and high-level direction and develop associated plans, projects, and policies (ie. setting goals, defining strategies, aligning resources, and outlining actions) to enable greater changes, desired outcomes, and long-term success

  • Ensuring that all organizational strategies, initiatives, and activities are aligned with high-level commitments/beliefs and creating pathways for improvement to integrate commitments and values into core operations (could include creating evaluation and assessment programs to measure progress and assess if offerings are truly value-adding to people and the planet)

  • Defining, organizing, and outlining strategies needed to achieve specific project goals in a way that is aligned with the organization’s unique gifts, offerings, and commitments (could include identifying project objectives, creating timelines, allocating resources, developing relationships, and managing risks)

  • Facilitating ethical and reciprocal collaboration between non-Indigenous and Indigenous knowledge systems and communities by developing effective methodologies, approaches, and frameworks, creating spaces for dialogue, mutual learning, and reconciling diverse perspectives and ways of knowing

  • Providing training programs, workshops, resources, and other knowledge-sharing opportunities on various topics within the two focus areas (ie. examination of eurocentric and kin-centric paradigms, promotion of cultural competencies, intergovernmental planning, ethical engagement, and respectful interactions with Indigenous peoples and knowledge systems)
