Cultivating an Intentional Community: The Shifts that Create Deeper Connection and Belonging with Nancy and Amy Harrington
Manage episode 481141987 series 2824596
Cultivating an intentional community is a powerful and critical antidote to the disconnection fed by our current societal structures and now is the time to cultivate. I say that because we’re living in a time where those structures are breaking down. Our individualistic, hierarchical culture is hitting its limits, and it feels rather like it’s composting itself. But compost makes great soil, and with intention, we can use that breakdown to grow something new.
In this episode of Unlimited, I invited sisters Nancy and Amy Harrington to join me in a conversation about cultivating intentional community and the shifts that support connection, collaboration, and care.
Some of what we talk about in this episode includes:
- Rebuilding trust in relationships with other women
- Redefining leadership—from hierarchy to a circle of self and co-leadership
- Developing community agreements rooted in consent, care, and shared responsibility
- Practicing the power of asking, receiving, and mutual support
Through this episode, you’ll gain inspiration and ideas for building community rooted in belonging, consent, and care.
