The Pod Cohort
exploring the joy of giving & the richness of shared prosperity
What is it?
Imagine the best of venture capital & philanthropy plus the curiosity, play & growth of real adventuring… the pod cohort is a nature-backed union of investors ready to explore the joy of giving & enter into the next level of true prosperity.
Why?
To provide a supportive, co-creative environment for Natural Flow Investors as they venture into Love-pulsed economics & rediscover their inherent abundant beingness.
What will we be doing?
Together pioneering new ways of engaging with life, optimizing resource flow, expanding beyond the known & living on the cutting edge of positive change.
The vibe?
Responsibility is shared, leadership roles are dynamic, opportunities are emergent, & life changing decisions happen in a living/breathing Now. This is a chrysalis for collective change & personal alchemy—it is sacred play!
EXPLORATION is the name of the game.
EXPANSION is the feel of the game.
ENHANCEMENT is the result of the game.
ENTRAINMENT beyond the game is the ripple effect into a whole new octave of existence.
The Pod Details
Curious players contact me and my team here.
Pod Formation
We then form pods of 6-9 (12 max) natural flow investors with one moderator to start, committing to be engaged for time-capsules of involvement of 3-6 months, with options to renew if desired. The pods can be formed based on areas of interest, region, availability, and/or online or in-person contact (depending on number of applicants); or investors can choose "luck of the draw" and be matched at random.
Pot Contribution
Like a high stakes poker game, players all contribute to a central pot, but unlike poker, participants each choose how much they put in and then the pod as a whole decides where, when and how the pot will be distributed. The goal here isn't "winner takes all" of course, but to answer the question: "What will it take so everyone wins?".
Investment Actualization
Once the focus of where to invest has been narrowed down, the next stage as a pod will be to carry out actionable steps through to completion. This could include giving a large sum of money to resource an innovative start-up or creative endeavor; offering an extra home, warehouse or land for a particular project; or rolling up your sleeves and heading on-site to participate in person, etc.
Dynamic Creation
Something else completely unknown might evolve instead… for like a pod of dolphins in nature, natural flow investing pods will be animated with a living spontaneity of interplay, connection, growth and movement that is likely to take us far beyond the known. The mix of uncertainty and aliveness that comes as each pod member listens and responds to the guidance of purest Love within is sure to keep this form of relating and creating always fresh, and always engaging!
THE RULES? Each pod decides.
THE RECIPIENTS? Each pod decides.
THE RISK? Each individual decides.
THE ROI? Unpredictable! ...
yet with endless ripples, exuberant enthusiasm and exhilaration guaranteed because the joy of giving at this level is not just a drop in the bucket, but a true, pure gift investing strategy yielding exponential results… within and without!

How will all of this unfold?
It's a bit of a mystery—for a giving pod itself is a collective, emergent chrysalis that will catapult both givers & receivers into epically new timelines of possibility.
I do know it will be highly liberating—dynamic, organic, alive! The fire of transformation will burn away what's false... allowing our true selves to shine!
Some fine print
I am not a financial advisor. The measure of “success” will all depend on the caliber, consciousness & commitment of those who come together: the purer the intention & the heart, the purer & more pronounced the outcomes.
We are beginning anew! We’re leaving behind past dysfunctional hangovers from either philanthropy or poverty. Such false-self agendas as savior complexes, power plays, or obligatory guilt may pop up around the table, but they definitely won't be calling the shots.
The primary objective is aligned, emergent, Love-powered giving! So to be clear at the outset, tax alleviation is not a goal of NFI—because likely these gifts won't be in any way deductible… but they are sure to be incredible!
Pro Tip: I definitely recommend checking out my freely given book before joining : )
