What is a Women of Earth Residency?

The Women of Earth Summit springs from a longing for our innate visions to gain enough radical freedom that they come to life.

How would governance look if you designed it? Which values would feed your relationships and culture if you could reinvent them from scratch? Where would the children play? What currency would you exchange? Those questions carry enough potential to reinvent every facet of social and cultural interaction.

The Summit is not a festival. Neither is it a class. There is no teacher or guru. Our foundation is a context of radically responsible collaborative creation.

Women of Earth Summit is a magnet for feminine inventors, thinkers, feelers, healers, adulthood initiators, and regenerative infrastructure builders to weave themselves into a team of women that does whatever it takes so that each of us wins. These days and nights are dedicated to on-the-ground no-nonsense next-steps and new beginnings. We can do this, because we are being it together.

Radical Empowerment

The Women of Earth Residency is held in the radically responsible context of Archiarchy using mainly the distinctions and tools of Possibility Management for holding and navigating the spaces of research, transformation and creation.

Vera Franco - one of the spaceholders of the Residency - wrote an inspiring article clearly laying out what we mean by radical responsibility in contrast with other levels of responsibility. You can read the article here.

Archiarchy is the culture that naturally emerges as Matriarchy and Patriarchy have run their course. Possibility Management is a evolutionary experimental context that specialize in developing thoughtware - the filter that we use to interact with the world - for regenerative cultures on Earth. In other words, how do we upgrade our capacity to take joyful and ecstatic responsibility as an adult for the things we want to exist?

For more than 50 years, thousands of people have been researching, inventing and evolving new ways to think-with needed for living in regenerative culture within this context.

In the last decade or so, more and more cultural creatives have excitedly use some of the tools, practices, distinctions and processes of Possibility Management for boosting their own projects.

The Summit introduces some of these tools for you to pick and choose the ones most adept for igniting your project.

What is Women of Earth?

The Women of Earth Movement is a path of initiation for women consciously accessing their inner and outer resources to create regenerative cultures, together.

We are a global movement walking beyond the edge of modern civilization and inventing bridges to regenerative culture.

Women of Earth are transformers, mothers, spaceholders, healers, inventors, culture-designers, inner structure-shapers, and most of all, team players.

One of the greatest joys being and creating among Women of Earth is when we hold each other accountable for our word and our worth. We do not let our unconscious gestures nor our unmanifested potential slip away under the mask of politeness or embarrassment.

Women everywhere are waking up to their potential. We are here to meet each other is this epochal cultural evolution.
