As the new year begins, many of us feel the familiar pull to set big resolutions. But what if, instead, we focused on routines—small, consistent practices that shape our days? 💜 This year, we’re asking: What routines do you want to practice?

A message from Coralus Development Guide MJ Ryan ✨ "I have been reflecting on the power of radical transparency for our consumer brands who have a loyal following. Times are tough and we've recently had three ventures who told the truth of what was going on for them and saw sales skyrocket...

As we look to the end of one year and the start of another, many of us are reflecting on the ways that we show up in the world. In her book “The Serviceberry”, Dr. Robin Wall Kimmerer describes the guidelines of the Honorable Harvest, a concept at the heart of the Dish With One Spoon Treaty. 🍓

Epic paragraph on non-human democracy in @brandonkeim.bsky.social ‘s excellent Meet the Neighbors. You’ll never hear your dog sneeze in the same way. Since we seem to be blowing it, maybe we could learn some stuff about collective decision making from other creatures.

We have 2 upcoming dates for you to join us at a "Meet the New Coralus" call where you can connect with community members. If you are up for practicing new ways of being; mindset shifts, reflection, reciprocity, power with, abundance, radical generosity, + much more... you are welcome to join. 💫
