Relationships: Individual and Collective Agents of Evolution?
with Russ Giles and Sheri Cooke
Come join us for a lively exploration of how relationships impact us individually and collectively and how they affect the evolution of consciousness.
We'll be focusing in this gathering mainly on our relationships which we call romantic or committed, yet which includes those relationships that are familial, in the workplace, and with friends and foes.
Facilitated by the husband and wife team Russ Giles and Sheri Cooke, this exploration will occur within an agreed upon safe space for the purpose of sharing, inquiring, and experiencing a larger, more diverse, authentic and harmonious way of relating. Our intention is for quickening our own personal growth and becoming more conscious agents who impact the whole of humanity and evolution at large.

Regenerative Business: Creating Upward Spirals of Personal, Community, and Ecological Regeneration
with Eric Baudry
The current global economy is based on imbalanced values and agreements that are corrosive to personal health, our communities, and the environment. A variety of factors indicate the old economy is in its final stages of decline, failing to serve the majority of the people using it, and devastating communities and nature as unsustainable resource consumption precipitates large systemic, societal, and environmental changes.
By developing regenerative sharing economies to replace the old one and sharing our models and knowledge with others, we contribute to one of the most important and effective solution possible towards creating a regenerative society and restoring balance with nature.
Join Eric Baudry, Sustainability Strategist and Co-founder of Upward Spirals, to explore how we’re designing the future of our economy; the core challenges, the biggest opportunities for growth, and the tools we’re using to build the regenerative world our hearts know is possible.
