Peace family!

We going deep in this one y'all, possibly deeper and more vulnerable than we've ever shared on this medium. We live in a world where our perceptions have been molded even before our very conception. We are born and formed by the ideas, ideologies, and identities that have been imposed on our minds as we learn how to navigate and make sense of our world.

As individuals and as a family striving to reclaim our lives, some of the most challenging work is the inner work. The very tool of the mind that we use to do this work is the object of our investigation. Tracing the origins and effects of the concepts, language, values, and identity that we hold is a comprehensive and elusive process that one can only go so far by themselves. We share these foundational tools that shape our ever-evolving values, goals, missions, and dreams as we call in and move towards our vision of land-based village, with each step that we take.

This is why we invite those of you doing your own version of this work into our dialogue to help further the growth, nourishment, evolution and clarity that this process has offered us and hopefully to you as well.
