What people are saying
“Thank you for all the thoughtfulness and labor! Happy to pay a membership fee and the "benefits" I'd love to see are community building opportunities :) Maybe some beautiful retreats together and immersive trainings! It costs money and time for this kind of growth and would love to think we could financially build that together! Haven't been able to connect for a meeting but will be able to soon! Thank you again for all the amazing work!”

WHAT WE NEED.
As Founders, Kimmi and Abigail have been honored to volunteer their time, money, and resources for the last year.
