COLLABORATE

“The goal of the community is to make sure that each member of the community is heard and is properly giving the gifts [they have] brought to this world. Without this giving, the community dies. And without the community, the individual is left without a place where [they] can contribute.”

- Sobonfu Somé, The Spirit of Intimacy: Ancient African Teachings in the Ways of Relationships

We design programs, convenings, and retreats for visionaries of social healing. Through contemplative creation, we are working to reframe our shared understanding of culture and what it means to make sense of life together. We offer this in two ways:

CommunitY of Practice

A community of practice dissolves siloes between visionaries working to advance social change in their specific areas. What really excites us about this offering is its vulnerability - it asks us to forego isolation for siblinghood. Through generative problem-solving, community members with shared interests convene to develop a collective wisdom that informs their projects for social change. We design and facilitate these communities tailored to the needs of each group.

CommunitY of Care

A community of care tends to the well-being of visionaries of social change. We hold this as the meaningful effort to say to one another, your wholeness is needed while we tend to the aches of this world. Through experiential retreats and pop-up wellness installations, participants are offered practices of meditation, reiki, story sharing, teambuilding and visioning, and yoga to restore themselves for the work ahead.

Client Reflections

faqs

  • Yes, we design both! When designing we consider the needs of your community and all who thrive more optimally in either setting.

  • Indwell Collaborative is a single-member LLC in the state of New York. Our pricing is informed by frameworks of economic justice and the impact of money trauma. We continue to research and seek guidance on the best pricing structures for our survival and those we seek to impact. As Britt Hawthrone said about striving for economic justice - “If it feels uncomfortable, it should. Our discomfort is required for justice.” We invite you into this conversation with us by starting your journey with Alexis J. Cunningfolk of Worts and Cunning.
