How It Works

A Thoughtful Process, One Step at a Time

We take care in how we engage people. Every person or organization we reach out to is selected with intention—and our process is designed to build from that first moment toward something meaningful.

Below is a simple overview of how we move from first contact to structured collaboration.

Goals and Needs

1: We Learn More About You

When we reach out, it’s usually because something you’re doing, offering, or exploring caught our attention. If you’re open to participating, we’ll ask you to fill out a brief form to share your interests, current goals, areas of need, and anything else you want us to know. This step helps us begin aligning you with others and with initiatives already in motion.

Review Interests

2: Strategic Matchmaking

We carefully review the information you’ve provided—along with the context that led us to you in the first place. Our team uses this to identify where your perspective or capacity might align with others.

3: We Arrange a Structured Zoom Meet-Up

We set up a video conversation with a clear purpose and an agenda shared with each participant. These meetings are usually short and focused, and they may be one-on-one or part of a small group. The meetings are recorded and transcribed—not for public use, but so we can track themes, make meaningful follow-ups, and support your next steps.

4: We Follow Up with Intent

After the conversation, we follow up. Sometimes it’s to arrange a deeper second meeting. Sometimes it’s to introduce you to a person or organization that aligns with your work. Other times, we invite you to contribute to a public discourse series or become part of a new coalition. Wherever the process leads, we’re actively engaged in helping you move forward.
