If you’ve ever longed for a community that feels both sacred and real—where people speak from the soul and laugh with their whole body, where healing doesn’t require performance and growth doesn’t demand perfection—this might be the thing you’ve been quietly searching for. We’re a slow-burning revolution disguised as a walk on the beach. A questing fellowship of the curious and the queer, the neurodivergent, and all tender-hearted humans exploring what it means to come Home—to ourselves, to one another, and to the world we wish to restore.
Nine Steps to Home is a living thing: not a checklist, not a self-help gimmick, but a personal exodus that takes us from where we are to where we aspire to be. A spiral staircase inward, outward, upward. It moves gently through nine realms of human experience, each one building upon the last, creating a foundation that supports our growth and transformation. You go at your own pace. You rest. You rise. You double back. We walk beside you with mindful intention—not to fix you or teach you, not to impress or advise, but simply to see you and to be with you.
Together we move forward, offering support and guidance to one another, step by step, until we find ourselves at Home—within and all around. 🌎
