A journey from lived experienceto ecosystem visibility

The retreat is built as a network that grows. Each activity is a node. Every node keeps everything before it, then adds one new layer of understanding.

Define flourishing Understand systems Reveal the ecosystem Integrate & orient 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Activity 1 What is your neighborhood? Adds: shared sense of place Activity 2 What do you really care about? Adds: meaning of thriving Activity 3 What keeps those things alive? Adds: conditions of flourishing Activity 4 What undermines them? Adds: pressures and dynamics Activity 5 Who is in the ecosystem? Adds: visible actors Activity 6 Who touches the conditions? Adds: influence pathways Activity 8 What are we leaving with? Local & lived More systemic More relational More strategic →
Step through the journey

Watch the network grow, one activity at a time

Each step lights up the next activity and keeps everything before it. Click "Add next layer" to advance, or click any activity to jump there.

Start — nothing lit yet.
Phase 1 Defining flourishing abstract language → concrete, shared meaning
1

Activity 1

What is your "neighborhood"?

Builds: a shared sense of the place we are trying to help flourish.

Complete
2

Activity 2

What do you really care about?

Adds: the concrete dimensions of what thriving actually means.

Upcoming
everything above carries forward
Phase 2 Understanding systems conditions → pressures → systems dynamics
3

Activity 3

What keeps those things alive?

Adds: the conditions and dependencies that sustain thriving over time.

Upcoming
4

Activity 4

What undermines them?

Adds: the barriers, drivers, and reinforcing pressures that weaken conditions.

Upcoming
the lens widens outward
Phase 3 Revealing the ecosystem invisible actors → visible network structure
5

Activity 5

Who is in the ecosystem?

Adds: the actors, bridges, gaps, and missing capacities, made visible.

Upcoming
6

Activity 6

Who touches the conditions?

Adds: how actors and sectors actually influence each condition of thriving.

Upcoming
from seeing the system to acting within it
Phase 4 Integration and orientation complexity → orientation and possibility
7

Activity 7

Where are the leverage points?

Adds: the recurring patterns, adjacencies, and openings worth continuing.

Upcoming
8

Activity 8

What are we leaving with?

Adds: shared orientation, relational closure, and a sense of what continues.

Upcoming

A collaborative ecosystem, made visible

By the end, the eight questions have become a single connected network. Not a finished plan, but enough visibility for new forms of coordination to become imaginable.

Each activity has its own page

The roadmap is the shape of the journey. The activities are where the work happens. Activity 1 is complete and fully populated. Activities 2 through 8 are upcoming, with stubs that will fill in as the work happens.
