COLLABORATE

COLLABORATE is an open space for QTBIPOC and BIPOC founders to disrupt isolation, and learn from other dope people. During COLLABORATE we will engage in embodiment practice, open the floor for people to share personal or professional challenges, offer spirit-rooted community wisdom then gather to reflect and integrate.

You are appropriate for COLLABORATE if you have lived experience as:

• FOUNDER: A founder is someone who has taken a project, artistic piece, business idea, healing offering from idea to launching it into the world.

• LAND STEWARD - a person who roots themselves with the land spiritually and physically.

• CULTURAL WORKER- someone who uses arts, cultural strategies, and wellness modalities to create spaces for healing, restoration and rest.

• QTBIPOC/BIPOC- Although not a perfect term these represent people who have cultural experiences as Black, Indigenous, Latine, Asian/Pacific Islander, DESI, MENASA, or other wise non-white. We highlight inviting those is the Queer/Trans spectrum (QTBIPOC) to signal a place of affirming founders outside of heteronormativity.
