At the heart of our lives is a desire to belong, to be expressing ourselves with True Authentic Expression and to be giving our gifts, to love, to contribute, to be seen and to see others. To be in right relationship with life and the great community we are part of. Sometimes it seems so simple and obvious and yet we look around and we seem to be far from the ideal. And yet this new world is bubbling up everywhere and we stand at a threshold. The inquiry around community building and culture design and living from a place of interconnectedness with all life is everywhere and is coming through people who feel this call and who are hearing this song everywhere. We long to play and cocreate together. So what are the lessons, what are the possibilities, where are the models, who are the players. Today on Heart of it All my guest is a wonderful man who holds some special keys and insights to these questions and more. His name is Tibet Sprague and his recent articles on Medium.com (Core Lessons in Community Building from Tamera and Growing Up with the Friends and Lovers Community) have sparked a lot of interest and inspired me to reach out to him). He’s an entrepreneur and technologist and passionate about creating the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible. He is definitely kin. “He most recently spent the last six years running the software team and helping build the fast growing residential solar industry at One Block Off the Grid which eventually became NRG Home Solar. Now he is exploring how to apply his skills towards community building, redesigning our economic system for the 100%, creating regenerative systems, and rethinking our social structures to be more collaborative, cooperative, peaceful, and joyful.” Find out more about him here: https://medium.com/@tibetsprague.
