IS: Glowing in the same direction
Upcoming events:
- Saturday March 21 (@IS-2hrs): open IS Connection Call
- Sunday March 8: Community Hub call 22.10
Last Sunday's Community Hub session was titled "IS 5-Year Celebration: Launching a New Era". (I've been writing about it for a month-and-a-half straight, so I hope you heard... or if you signed up for email updates while registering, hello and welcome!)
This last Sunday, we threw a big party. Whew, yeah! If you were there, I hope you enjoyed it. If you tried to get in but couldn't, reply to this email and I'll send you the recording.
I've thrown together a collage of the 20+ members, participants, and friends who spoke on Sunday:

I think it gets the vibe across! At least, it makes me smile a lot as I look at it. 😊
There was a LOT packed into the program — here's a list of links, starting with our two largest announcements:
🌐 Relational Web 🆕 launching our network of trust and collaboration
💰 Funding Announcement 🆕 "Intentional Society Announces $1.8 Million, 10-Year Funding Commitment"
🏡 Community
🥋 Relational Dojo
🚀 Intentional Ventures
🤝 Connection Call March 21 to dig deeper on any of these
✉️ Contact IS re logo design, tech team, inquiries
As shared on the call, IS is proud to be supporting several partners and allies financially as 2026 friends in the field: Collective Presencing, Denizen, Limicon, Metachrysalis, The Nectary, Renga, VillageCo...
Also reaffirming: as we seed the Relational Web, any Community member, IV participant, or Developmental Practice Series veteran may sign up by listing yourself as your own referral. You're already part of this web! Come to a Connection Call on Saturday if you're still on the fence. Even in this last week we've discovered more about what this wants to be.
Now, what do you do after crossing a threshold like this? Well, you take a breath. More than one. Feel the love. And then take the next step in a long obedience in the same direction. It feels really reassuring to me to so tangibly feel now, in the post-celebration glow, that we're going in the same direction — that our values and visions align, across so many different expressions of what is ours to do in this great wave.
Onward,
James
