Our Offerings
We are capacity-builders, movement accompanists, healers, and facilitators, designing and facilitating consulting partnerships and Learning Labs that forge lasting change and uproot entrenched challenges to love, dignity, and justice
We meet our partners where they are, seeking to understand the many experiences informing our work together. We challenge ourselves and others to continually be guided by vision and purpose, ensuring our approaches remain both deeply rooted and ever-evolving.
Whether shaping strategy in chaos, creating liberating financial systems, building teams, or crafting shared learning laboratories, we cultivate vision and well-being—because brilliant strategies fail without connection to ourselves and each other, and justice work succeeds only when we remember what it means to be human and humane.

Transformative Strategy in Chaos & Complexity
We work with our partners to develop strategic frameworks that support clarity in complexity and visionary response in chaos, and to cultivate cultures of strategic thinking, learning, and adaptation within their organizations, foundations, and networks.
Values-Aligned Culture
We support leaders, organizations, foundations, and networks in cultivating cultures grounded in interdependence and sovereignty, where liberating practices and values guide structures, operations, leadership, and ways of working. These in-depth processes are rooted in liberatory practice, centering race and other forms of cultural difference.
Leadership, Governance & Coaching
We partner with organizations, foundations, and networks to develop and support individual and team leadership at multiple levels, to clarify roles and responsibilities, define or re-invent decision-making processes, and increase capacity to build and share power across difference in ways that advance mission.
Interdependent Networks
We nurture emerging and evolving networks driven by changemakers across issues, movements, and sectors to find authentic ways of generating power greater than the sum of their parts.
Liberated Finance
We support nonprofits in aligning financial strategy with organizational values by strengthening systems, embedding liberatory practices, and offering interim financial leadership to foster collective, sustainable stewardship.
Learning & Evaluation
We design, facilitate, and participate in learning and evaluation projects, communities of practice, and research engagements within organizations and across movements that center dialogue, experimentation, storytelling, and active learning.
Prefiguring Futures Lab
The Prefiguring Futures Lab is a generator for power with and power within (and visionary uses of power over)—for the be-how and know-how of advancing liberation and sovereignty. Rooted in the 5 Elements of Liberatory Transformation, it provides experiences, experiments, and practices, as well as some resources and tools, for tending to the being and doing of prefiguring liberation.
