@cindygallop buh bye

[Joan Halifax @jhalifax]

in order to de-construct our identity, decenter, and see that we are co-extensive with every being and thing, including the very atmosphere we breathe.

@shaherose @MoniqueWoodard @cakeventures I've loved watching your connection build momentum and power over the years. Applauding the good you'll co-create. Congratulations, rockstars!

[shaherose (she/her) @shaherose]

I'm excited to announce that I am teaming up with long-time friend and collaborator @MoniqueWoodard as a Venture Partner @cakeventures to invest in this next generation of visionary founders and disruptive companies that are building a future I want to live in.

[Monique Woodard @MoniqueWoodard]

I’m excited to welcome @shaherose to the @cakeventures team as Venture Partner.

I've known Shaherose for 10+ years -- she started Women 2.0 around the same time that I was building Black Founders. We worked out of the same co-working space and became friends and co-conspirators.

@moniguzman @usnews That is AWESOME. Great pre-college read and prep for life skills that matter.

And there you frickin’ go. Climate science has been screaming this was coming for decades. Greed + stupidity blocked action.

I am one pissed off scientist.

@cindygallop @makelovenotporn This wants to make me scream "Oh my God!!" in a whole ... other kind of way.

"Our world is built for a climate that no longer exists."

OOOF. And we all see the proof.

Our world is built for a climate that no longer exists. Some people are starting to realize this and think differently about how they live. Smart piece (as always) by ⁦@cflav⁩ https://t.co/dBqALFJMBw

We mirror and magnify each other’s light. We work against the forces of colonial consumer capitalism which seeks to divide us and set us against each other. It is gentle work. Steadfast work. Life-saving work.

Something special coming up July 25 1 pm EDT. A discussion of feminine partnership values in systems thinking through the lens of economics.

[Mónica Guzmán @moniguzman]

This conversation was just the beginning. 💪

Thank you, @NatlGovsAssoc!

[Ellen Petry Leanse @chep2m]

Mónica Guzmán @moniguzman is a star. In this lively interview she shares – & MODELS – her curiosity, openness, & balance. Listen & learn: you can do it, too. Applause, Móni. @braverangels & all of us benefit from your commitment to bridging divides.

A break to show this gem that just arrived at my house "In a moment in a breath" by @jhalifax. The kit is 55 deck meditations inspired by the 5 elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Space. A simple way to help you tune in, cultivate compassion, and still the mind.

[Mónica Guzmán @moniguzman]

Seeing each other’s values goes a long way toward helping us make sense of each other.

Starting in the 1990s, psychologist Shalom H. Schwartz took on a beast of a project. He wanted to study this most abstract of things — human values — and look for patterns that held, even across different cultures.

After conducting research in eighty-two countries, Schwartz had the data to back up a pretty amazing claim: There aren’t an infinite number of human values out there.

There are only ten: stimulation, hedonism, achievement, power, benevolence, universalism, security, conformity, tradition, and self-direction. They're all important, but watch out. Some naturally oppose each other, like stimulation (seeking what's new) and conformity (blending in with a community). Fascinating, right?

The things we hold valuable — and how we rank them for different issues — inform everything we believe and every position we take.

Which of these values tend to top your list?

Chrissy, I explored the "Alice Waters response" to b & c here https://t.co/jY3tVJCUnY My 1 week experiment landed me well below my usual grocery budget – & was beyond delicious. I did not spend more time. "A" is the thing: easy access to local / fresh is everything.

@jhalifax @chrissyfarr hmmmm maybe worth a share...

Thanissaro Bikkhu: What made the Buddha special was that he never lowered his expectations. He imagined the ultimate happiness, one so free from limit & lack that it would leave no need for further desire — and then treasured his desire for that happiness as his highest priority.

[David McRaney @davidmcraney]

Here's something you should know about yourself: The more intelligent you are and the more education you gain, the better you become at rationalizing and justifying your existing beliefs and attitudes regardless of their accuracy or harmfulness.
