now what lawrence is up to

Now

Right now I’m…


making sure everyone reads this general note (through sept 2019)

i am going through a period of intensive spiritual formation from oct 2018 - sept 2019. in order to say yes to my spiritual development, i am saying no almost everything that i am not currently committed to. you can see this list of existing commitments below:

  • close friends and niblings
  • paid work: center for story-based strategy (css), lqb2 & co consulting work
  • communities of practice: evolutionary leadership, consultant coffee, the upstarts, boston movement space(s)
  • boards: RESIST, FII
  • making with my hands: calligraphy, knitting
  • making with sound: life radio, post-patriarchal, intersectional enneagram
  • making with my mind: unleashing alternative futures, pre-/post-patriarchal time travel
  • all things healing, especially for queer folx and men

here’s a more temporal update, though. right now i’m:

  • feeling magical after celebrating my 30th birthday. i’m feeling great and aligned about the end of my saturn return season
  • working 1/2 time at css, working 1/2 time for lqb2 & co
  • still deep in my spiritual leadership development work (via the formation project)
  • exploring (because of the above bullet): grief, anger, restorative vs transformative justice, wealth/financial trauma, generosity
  • loving poetry more and more these days
  • practicing uncling and loving it
  • learning that a 30yo doesn’t heal like a 20yo body. #yikes!
  • hosting: monthly ga(y)me day on the last saturday of each month (next one: june 29), monthly queer jp movie night (next one: june 5, 6p), monthly queer full moon circles for men/male-bodied folx
