Making the world a more civil and compassionate place, by doing work we love with people we care about, in a way that is aligned with our values, personality and lifestyle.

MISSION STATEMENT

To use experience, research, pop culture, and humor to explore and explain self-awareness and mindfulness.

Compassion

Relate to others with kindness and caring

Connection

Our hardwiring, our joy, our reason for being
