[ COMMUNITY ]
Welcome
There are things for which we have each been destined that we cannot do alone.
If you’ve ever wondered how one person could possibly make a difference just by showing up exactly as they are – welcome to the Seeds kula collective! Listen for the trumpet call to rise, to leap, to be inspired from within and by our people to say YES! We promise, this community will light you up. You—we—will never be the same. Everyone has something of value to share with others—whether time, money, voice, or purpose.
Step by step, arm in arm, we are creating a well-worn path of inspired vision and action, making mighty contributions, and offering our gifts in response to some of the world’s greatest challenges.
In our community, you can rest, pause, take a breath, you can be. Be you.
If you find yourself overwhelmed, isolated, or fearful about the future … in need of some soulful direction for your next steps, take a PoP (Place of Pause) now. No matter what season of life you are in, these places of pausing, of pondering, of wise and inspired engagement offer potent fuel for your life … for you. And if you are rock solid and crystal clear about your purpose on the planet, your life’s why, and the who you are committed to serve, practicing PoPs will energize you … and bring you peace. Ahh.
Want to learn more and be inspired to be fueled by regular PoPs? Read this excerpt from Soulfully Ablaze. If you love it, keep going! There are 10 of these PoPs in Live Ablaze: And Light Up the World and 41 in Soulfully Ablaze: A 40-Day Journey to Light Up Your Life (And the World).
You belong here. We belong to each other.
Let’s standTALL and light up the world, together.

“The vulnerability and willingness to openly share their experiences that the Seeds Storytellers brought with them in their presentation impacted our students and touched them deeply. Our students walked away from the short hour in amazement and filled with respect for the women they met and with an entirely different perspective on life.”
—Christina Vela, Diversity Director, Regis Jesuit High School
