Five Weeks Practicing Liberation-Centered Education
5 Sundays | March 1-29, 2026 @ 11am CST | Virtual
The systems not designed for the wellbeing of humans have us disconnected from ourselves, each other, and the land. Lost in cycles of harm…
What if, for five weeks, we practiced returning – to our bodies, to relationship, to the web of life that’s been holding us all along?
I’m sending you care, hope, and inspired action your way as we continue to navigate the waves of individual and collective change, healing, and transition.
It’s a lot… deep breath.… and we are built for these times.
The Transformation
Over five weeks, we’ll develop three core capacities that change how we show up in every learning space, every relationship, every moment of life…
→ Returning to Body
We’ll learn to be with our nervous systems in real-time – to notice when we’re dysregulated, breathe ourselves to presence, and stay grounded when conflict arises. No more running on autopilot.
→ Returning to Relationship
We’ll practice moving toward (not away from) rupture. We’ll learn restorative language that repairs rather than defends. We’ll discover that conflict isn’t a threat – it’s a portal to deeper belonging.
→ Returning to the Web of Life
We’ll remember we’re not alone. We’ll feel our belonging to ancestors, land, community, and future generations. We’ll make decisions from interconnection, not isolation.
We’ll gather every Sunday in March at 11am CST to practice these capacities through the Liberated Learning Model’s four pillars: Relational Ecology, Embodied Learning, Restorative Culture, and Reciprocal Belonging.
This cohort is co-creative in design – we bring questions, ideas, context, and lived wisdom, and together we weave learnings and connections.
We all teach and we all learn.
The Journey – Five Weeks of Practice
Week 1 – March 1st | Coming Home to Our Bodies
Core Teaching – You cannot hold space you haven’t created within yourself first. Learning begins in relationship.
We’ll explore parts of self we want to reclaim and map our learning village.
Week 2 – March 8th | Building Our Capacity
Core Teaching – The body is the first teacher. Learning happens through sensation, movement, and experience.
We’ll build a regulation toolkit and learn to notice dysregulation.
Week 3 – March 15th | Restorative Repair
✦ Spring Equinox Week ✦
We cross the balance point between light and dark on March 20th – aligned timing for restorative work
Core Teaching – Healthy conflict is the portal to authentic belonging. Repair is a practice.
We’ll practice repair and experience how staying through discomfort deepens relationship.
Week 4 – March 22nd | Practicing Belonging
Core Teaching – We belong with all of life. Right relationship with ourselves allows us to mirror love and co-create cultures of reciprocal care.
We’ll create a belonging ritual and feel our interconnection viscerally.
Lighthouse Integration Circle
Wisdom Harvest circle and closing ceremony
We’ll name what we’re taking forward, create a commitment, and know we’re never alone.
Aligned Seasonal Timing
We begin March 1st and move through the season of awakening together.
Week 3 lands on Spring Equinox week (March 20th) – when we cross the balance point between light and dark.
We’ll be exploring Restorative Culture then, practicing repair as the Earth herself models renewal and return.
This is intentional. Learning with seasons. Flowing with ancestral rhythms.
And our ancestors remind us, we don’t have to carry this vision alone.
This is for…
This is for those ready to practice.
You’ll actually DO the things. In your body, within your context, and with support.
Maybe you’re exhausted
Maybe you’re grieving what education has become.
Angry at the systems that keep harming the people we love.
And maybe, you’re also hopeful.
Feeling the call. Ready to move from dreaming into doing.
If this is you – if you’re reading these words and something in your body is saying yes, this, now – then know, you are not alone.
We are the momentum co-creating a more healed, whole way of learning and being together.
How We’ll Gather
Every Sunday @ 11am CST, ~90 minutes live
Opening practice – we land together, ground in bodies
Practice exploration – teaching, activity, embodied experience
Community weaving – sharing practices, questions, learnings
Integration closing – what wants to be carried forward?
All circles are recorded if you can’t make it live.
This cohort is intentionally small (max 20 participants) so we can deepen into community.
What We’ll Practice
This is about embodied transformation. By the end of this cohort, you will have…
✦ Practiced returning to our bodies when dysregulation comes – and we’ll have regulation toolkits we trust
✦ Practiced repair in community – we’ll have stayed through discomfort and experienced how conflict can deepen relationship
✦ Practiced belonging to the web – we’ll have created altar spaces, mapped our villages, and felt our interconnection viscerally
✦ Practiced in our contexts – we’ll have tried new ways of showing up in our actual lives (classroom, home, community)
✦ Built community – we’ll know we’re not alone in this workWe won’t just know ABOUT liberation-centered education.
We’ll have lived it for five weeks. We’ll know the way back.Time Commitment
~4-5 hours per week, designed to nourish, not deplete
You’re welcome to adjust your depth of engagement – some weeks go deep, some weeks the minimum.

Pass the light along
Whisper to the ones who are tired.
The ones who are dreaming.
The ones who are ready to practice liberation.
We need each other. And we are not alone.
This cohort begins March 1st – as the earth awakens, so do we.
Tending the light,
