Intentional Society is made of people, practices, and culture held in awareness and intention. We are…
(I:) …a place to grow and develop yourself in a warm, supportive community.
(We:) …a living probe into stabilizing and spreading self-transforming collective culture.
(World:) …a future society that better supports the thriving of humans and humanity.
Our 16th seasonal/quarterly cycle runs October through December 2024. Intentional Society currently has three main spaces/places with varying levels of openness and commitment. Whoever and wherever you are, you are invited to draw closer in connection with the people and purposes of IS.
There's a lot going on in the world and in our lives! How do you want to be, when tough news surprises you?
We can find choice and freedom in the space between stimulus and response. In this series, we will practice a way-of-being that welcomes reality as it is without giving up our care or agency. We'll face some challenging topics like war/violence, elections/politics, relationship stress, etc and support each other in becoming better able to Be With It All - expanding our capacity to hold grief and gratitude, acceptance and desire, powerlessness and agency, without losing ourselves in the torrent of stimulus in modern life.

Community members gather on Sundays for weekly calls, and/or support one another in relational "pods", while forming and deepening relationships with other community members. We play together in a relational sandbox of practices, explorations, creativity, and leadership development as we cultivate the kind of collective culture that supports us in our "being who we want to be" into the whole of our lives.
Read more and apply here. Membership is free (always has been), and the light application-and-agreements membrane that defines membership exists to let us create openness and safety in our private cozyweb and manage our private data sharing. You're invited to attend an Office Hours call for orientation purposes, yet if you've been to at least one Practice Dojo session previously, y ou probably have enough of the vibe to dive in if you prefer.
We unlock successful economics for meaningful livelihoods through relational support.
After two quarters in incubation with the founding team of ten, IV has established key structures and principles, and intends to invite new members from the waitlist in Q4. To be added to the waitlist, come chat about it at Office Hours.
Since Jan 2021 we've been exploring and relating together weekly, with more than 150 sessions under our belts.
You can read more about who we are and what we do, and find a few different inroads to get involved if and when you feel so called.
