Epic Wins Comes From Epic Adventures
From the Women of Earth Tour to the Cavitation Bridgehouse.
Hopping through England, The Netherlands, Italy and Tenerife, from one Woman of Earth cottage to another woman’s farm, from drinking hot chocolate on the freezing nights of suburban England to sipping cool orange juice on the slopes of Mount Teide, it might seem that I ended up right back where I started: Kriti, Greece.
I confirm I did not come back the same person or to the same person. Clinton picks me up from the airport and drives us to our lively little town of Neapoli in Eastern Crete.
He says, “I know I am not a woman.”
I ask, “Why do you say that?”
He answers, “For the last 10 minutes, what I say does not seem to land.”
I say nothing. It is true.
It is the first time in our seven and a half years together that we spent 20 days apart while I am almost entirely ensconced in women’s space.
Clinton’s comment is not a plea for me to ‘change back’. He simply notices ‘What Is’. He also does not pretend to be a woman. We are getting to know each other again. We fumble, and meet each other in our new shape. Despite the superficial tentativeness, our 5-body resonance remains. If anything it is more intense. Whole new parts of my Being have expanded into new dimensions. I just completed an ‘Epic Win’!
Going on a 20-day Women of Earth Tour was a risk. I had never delivered 18 individual events in-person in such a short time frame. I probably doubled the amount of in-person stand-alone events I ever offered. Each woman organizer also took a risk to invite me with the possibility that no one would show up. That did not happen! Every single event planned took place and was a success. We had early on decided to measure ‘if we were successful’ by whether we had High Level Fun holding space for the event. And we did!
It is not just me, all nine of us — Sareeta Pattni, Christina Beberdick, Amy Jansen, Marina Mello, Lisa-Maria Goertz, Ana Maria Diaz, Charlotte Chackley and myself — completed an ‘Epic Win’! We showed our hand to E.C.C.O (the Earth Coincidence Control Office)…
The game that these women are playing is putting themselves at maximum risk and maximum visibility as a Woman of Earth. Some of them make their very first public video, they contact old friends with their new aspirations despite fears of being judged, they deliver The Menu on the streets of their local cities, they write and call likehearted institutions and organizations for collaboration and support, they stick ‘Women of Earth’ and ‘Rage Club’ postcards all over town, they make their home and family visible to a stranger — me! — with the willingness to be naked in their comfort zone, they accept every challenge I offer from making Italian people laugh about their strange traditions of everyone speaking at the same time, admitting to a bookstore owner about their fear of reading, chasing down a young woman in the snow to give them a postcard, refusing to answer flirtatious questions from a man, and becoming a Emotional Red Cross stand at an activist conference.
E.C.C.O. concluded: ‘You have a winning hand!’, but not until the very last moment. The verdict could not come too early or the uncertainty necessary to keep taking maximum risk would have been taken away. Uncertainty is one of the needed spices to source authentic liquid state for ourselves as spaceholders and for the participants.

You cannot live in an Epic Win. But nobody can stop you from creating ongoing Epic Adventures with explorers on the edge of what is possible.
When you frame your Epic Adventures so that the Wins are challenging but achievable, your Path fills with urgent optimism, collaborative team creation, and a conscious purpose for taking risks and making efforts.
As I celebrate our Women of Earth Tour Epic Win, the start of my next Epic Adventure unfolds before me: the Cavitation Bridgehouse.
The Cavitation Bridgehouse is open!
Four months prior to this date, eleven remarkable individuals gathered in the name of the Epic Adventure of becoming a seed crystal for Archiarchy. Among these twelve individuals, nine are Women of Earth.
What does it mean to be a seed crystal for Archiarchy? Here is what I am thinking:
We are facing the challenge of reversing climate change to create a livable future on the planet. One way to do this is to hold integrity at the level of the human species (inspired by the words of David Gerrold in his novel, A Rage For Revenge). Integrity means doing what you said you would do, and helping others in doing what they say they would do. Without integrity you forgo the ability to commit, or take a stand. The Universe listens to your word. If you are not your word, the universe cannot rely that you will show up for the magical synchronicities that amplify your work within the greater network of commitments and stands. If you are not your word, collaboration with other humans, even if they share a common vision, is weak and unsustainable.
Integrity at the level of species means that the species takes care of itself with integrity, meaning that it does not require other species to pay the price for its existence. In other words, it cleans up its own messes.
If we lived in a culture that had integrity at the level of species it would uplift the morphogenetic field to support the humans who do keep their word. In that context, from a darwinistic perspective, the humans who keep their word would succeed in their endeavors while the ones who cheat, lie, manipulate, hide, and try to get by would fail in their survival program. Modern culture’s memetic infrastructure empowers a few psychopathic-type personalities to rise to the top of hierarchical power structures and gives them the means to pursue their ecocidal agenda, which disrupts the integrity of the human species.
We are asking the question, how does one personally live from having integrity as the human species?
As we research this in the Cavitation Bridgehouse, we discover that one might think that lacking integrity, for example by responding to unconscious fear by leaving your body, is necessary to your survival. At this point on planet Earth and humans’ trajectory, lacking integrity is actually at odds with your survival: playing zombie is participating in the ecocidal agenda at work.
Someone else realizes that, after receiving multiple unemotional feedbacks from different friends in the last weeks, they are not their word. Their shift-experiment is to be in integrity with the small stuff. For example, waking up when their alarm rings.
There is much to learn and, most of all, practice.
Leveling our integrity at the level of species is an Epic Adventure, and a successful outcome would definitely results in the biggest Epic Win that humanity has yet to see.
If you want to get in on the game, start by doing every experiment on the ‘Integrity’ website: integrity.mystrikingly.com, and keep reading our news at: cavitationbridgehouse.substack.com.
