Welcome to the general conversation space. This is where we share what’s real—questions, reflections, insights, and experiences. It’s not just a feed—it’s a shared space for meaningful conversation and practice. We all know by now that online diacourse has challenges that we are not adapted to. Please consider these guidelines as reminders to help us stay on track. How to participate: Show up honestly. Share your thoughts, questions, and lived experience. You don’t need to be polished—but be sincere. Stay grounded and relevant. Keep contributions connected to the Journey and your direct experience. Communicate with awareness. Be clear and considerate. Listen as much as you speak. Seek real dialogue and avoid overwhelming the space—aim to contribute something meaningful. Engage with respect. Challenge ideas if needed, but not people. Give credit where it’s due, and include sources when appropriate. What doesn’t belong here No abuse of any kind. No agendas, soapboxing, or attempts to steer conversations off track. Avoid abstract debates or speculative narratives that aren’t grounded in experience. No self-promotion, spam, or attention-seeking posts. Boundaries & stewardship This space is actively stewarded. Posts or comments may be redirected or removed if they don’t align with these guidelines. If boundaries are repeatedly ignored, you will receive a warning and may be removed from the community. We are not trying to include everything—we are maintaining a space that works. Simple orientation Be real. Keep it relevant. Respect the space.

My recent newsletter announcing the Primal Journey introduction. http://eepurl.com/jCcWkY

"Some of the most valuable time I've ever spent. And, very young man that I was, I didn't have much life span to contextualize or unpack what I was encountering. As time passes and my experiences in life broaden, I notice the puzzle pieces from those journeys fall into place, informing and deepening my relationship with myself, my environment, and with other people. It goes to show me that it doesn't matter when you go on these journeys; they ripple throughout your lifespan both forward and backward in time (if indeed time is linear). I consider myself one of the luckiest people alive to have had the opportunity and the ability to engage with the container you hold, Ben." - MN "If you are looking for real transformation, I would definitely recommend one of my mentor's Ben Sanford Journey Program. I was fortunate enough to be supported by him in his year-long program 9? years ago. As I get to know myself deeper, I have so much gratitude for the people, like Ben, who helped hold space and believed in me to create a life that includes me. Reach out if you have any questions about my experience." - IP
