WHO'S THIS FOR?
It's for you. This community is about connecting through purpose - you want to see more compassion, empathy, and mindful action in the world, whatever your profession is. If you don't fit into one of the boxes below, don't worry, we don't really like boxes anyway.
Social changemakers
People who care about the world
Whatever you're doing in life, you want to make a difference. Perhaps you work in healthcare or mental health, you're a public servant trying to change the system from the inside, or a businessperson interested in the potential of social enterprise to make change.
Mindfulness practitioners
You live and breathe mindfulness
You're on a mission to spread compassion and acceptance through mindfulness and related pratices (yogis we're looking at you). Perhaps you run mindfulness programmes and are looking for new connections, or perhaps you're more one for living by example and benefiting others through your presence.
Community builders
You believe in the power of community
It can be hard to make meaningful friendships with like-minded people. The hui will give you a chance to dig deep into what makes other awesome people tick.
Creatives
Your artistic flair brings joy to people's lives
You want to use your creative ability - whether that's in design, fine art, tech, public speaking or theatre - to spread love and compassion around the world.
FACILITATORS
We're fortunate to have the services of Purpose Partners, a group of highly aligned facilitators who bring experience in co-created, emergent experiences and conscious ways of organising.
Jane
Facilitator
I am a skilled, and always-learning, participatory process host and steward of the Art of Hosting Conversations that Matter. My favourite work is in the fire of co-creation, hosting and participating with people who are seeking wise solutions to complex problems.
I want to learn and practice the compassion I think we need to live in harmony, with each other and the Earth, and hold space for others to also.
Frank
Facilitator
I am enjoying, with my partners, work that helps organisations and communities to discover their purpose and learn about new ways of being and working in the world, and improving and deepening their practice in every way.
In my work I seek to engage people well to find their own solutions, so that they and their organisations can be integral parts of thriving communities.
Mel
Facilitator
I’m a skilled participatory process designer, host and harvester, having trained and practiced internationally, with diverse groups. I believe in people having a voice in what matters to them, and in a more human way of learning, living and working together. My deeply held values are nourishing myself, others and the planet, and I want to work with others who also want to build on what’s working, and help shift what’s not.
