Introductions are in order!

Hey folks! Please take a moment and let us know a little about who's here. Something about what brings you to this discussion, what your background is, what you dream about creating.

I'm Raven. There's lots I could say, but in this context, I'll say that I've been training myself for the past 20 years in a particular practice of transformation taught by Landmark Education. I use it in my life daily - and spend more and more of my time living out my commitments and dreams and less and less time being righteous, judgmental and arrogant (people who know me would have more colorful descriptions!).

I'm head-over-heals in love with three women and one man - my family. Flame and I have been together 20 years - in fact, she was my first real paradigm shift; I gave up living out of fear and resignation about how I knew my relationships "always go," and got involved with her against my "better judgments." Best decision of my life.

Between the 5 of us, we have 6 children - from Zack, age 41 to Aurora, age 4. They've mostly grown up in a conversation for being limitless, for thinking outside of the box, and the next box, and. . .

I'll give more details as they're useful. For now, I'll say that, for all the struggles in the world, I'm living the life of my dreams. A vibrant, loving family in a thriving community. Work that makes a difference. And the opportunity to create something new every day of my life.

And the dream that I most give my life over to is humankind as loving family, creating a world that works for every being.

Thank you for being here.

New paradigms for our human family

This is a site to explore how to bring a practice and technology of paradigm change to a large portion of humanity. The ability to see our blindspots, to realize that our "truths" are beliefs and stories we made up, gives us a power to create from a blank slate.

It begins here. We can create a new path for our human family.

Let's have your thoughts, your questions, your ideas.
