In this episode, I share a bit about how we got here.
From Day 1, January 2020, the essence of Brave School (as an idea, an entity) has always contained this vision of "dreaming our world back into wholeness." In those beginning days, I, Daje, wrote a lot about what it could look like to have a "politics of dreaming". I wove it into the most present modality alive in my work, brand strategy, because brand strategy provides straightforward, tangible, and grounding systems for us to channel beauty into the culture.
I honestly didn't see any difference between the power of the nervous system and the power of a strategic system -- they both help us carry stories that can make way for transformation. Both systems are wired to build, heal, comfort, serve, solve, and hold space for our wholeness to be birthed in waves upon iterative waves of innovation in the world.
In the building of business entities, and ideas, if the physical body and the stories they hold were the brick, then brand strategy could most certainly be a mortar of some kind.
Back when Brave School began as a 6-week Brand Strategy Intensive in January 2020, I couldn't have imagined that this door would lead to exploring wholeness, belonging, authenticity, and voice-honoring magic in the work, but I'm so glad it did.
In this week's episode, I talk about what I think Regenerative Mysticism is. I share how we got here.
