My Brother's Keeper | My Sister's Keeper Is About
Giving people first time access to one another and access to people they may have never had an opportunity to meet otherwise
Understanding the urgency of our situation and starting each relationship with a rebuttable presumption of trust, foundational for building meaningful relationships
Taking off our masks and sharing our vulnerabilities to promote a nourishing environment of collective and individual authenticity-based well-being
Encouraging more gives than asks
Maintaining a positive group dynamic of empathy that doesn't tolerate looking down on one another or disrespect
Ensuring that these shared experiences remain in the “circle of trust” and that repeating personal stories and opinions of others is not acceptable
Being each other’s keeper
