Transformative experiences of power and love that improve a team’s creativity, impact and freedom.
We believe that in order to build a world of collective freedom for our families, for our communities, we must learn how to live that world in our places of work.

Achieving your team’s mission requires a deeper engagement with two concepts typically siloed in our professional lives: power and love. At Up With Community we take a radical approach – going to the root of interpersonal, organizational, and systemic challenges by engaging teams in transformative experiences of their own power and love.
Reclaiming Our Understanding
Of Power and Love:
POWER
Reclaim your life force for change – for ourselves and our communities. Learn how to build and unite power sources for your creativity, impact, and freedom.
“Power, properly understood, is the ability to achieve purpose. It is the strength required to bring about social, political, or economic changes. In this sense power is not only desirable but necessary in order to implement the demands of love and justice.”
–Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
LOVE
Bring more love into your work by believing love is possible, understanding its power and reorienting yourself toward it.
“Love is an act of will, both an intention and an action – Love is ‘the will to extend one’s self for the purpose of nurturing one’s own or another’s spiritual growth.’”
–bell hooks
