Why I am called to facilitate the Work

Because I belive that I need it, and the world needs it

How I see the Work serving the Great Turning

Its a very confusing and difficult time.
It would be easy to despair.

WTR offers a set of tools to navigate this time with hope, joy and acceptance.
It empowers people to vision change in the world, and take steps to bring it into being.
