Fierce Vulnerability | Kinship Lab

The Fierce Vulnerability Kinship Lab is a 3-month journey that begins as a book club and evolves into an embodied community experiment that invites participants into deeper practice, reflection, and collective action.

Participants will be placed into ‘kinship pods’, and invited to design their own Fierce Vulnerability group experiment.

Join a community of bridge-builders for a living exploration of Fierce Vulnerability—a book, a practice, and an invitation to act from the sacred meeting point of power and tenderness.


Grassroots Disaster Resilience

Santa Cruz, CA

Kinvene is collaborating with Loam and Thomas Sage Pedersen to host an evening exploration of grassroots disaster resilience in Santa Cruz on Wednesday May 27 from 6-8:30pm.

At a time when many of us are asking how to respond to and prepare for increasing disruption, this gathering will explore what community-rooted resilience can look like in practice.

The gathering is based on Loam’s new book Compassion in Crisis: Building Disaster Resilience Communities, which you can pre-order here.

Coming Soon

It highlights a 10-week journey of inner and outer flames, with local practice and global ecosystem, led by Luke McLaughlin of Holistic Survival School, coming fall 2026. The flyer includes an abstract illustration of flames and a photo of Luke McLaughlin.

Wild Kin

Wild Kin is a 10-week practice group for those who want to deepen connection with the living world through animacy practices, nature-based skills, fire ritual, and community.

Participants will learn and practice foundational wilderness skills, hold ceremony together, and explore animist ways of relating with land and place.
