A toolkit for humans who are fed-up with capitalism
50+ tools to help you Flip capitalism the bird
This toolkit is rich with non-fluffy actions for changing the way you engage with the fuckery of our times—namely (but not exclusively) capitalism. Some of the suggestions date back to when I was an activist involved in direct action—when I lived and breathed an anti-capitalist lifestyle. Others are sourced from my experiences as a coach, and still others come from my own lived experience. My sincere hope is that you find something useful and actionable here.
Here’s What’s Inside
✹
Non-fluffy, actionable ideas for (at least) nine key areas, e.g. Resistance, Privacy, Consumption, and more.
✹
My bio and street creds, so you know I’m NOT the kind of person who makes shit up without actually doing the work.

HI! My name’s Kristi.
I was an activist long before I became a coach.
Here’s an excerpt from my bio:
“In full transparency, I was once deeply entrenched in direct action. My ‘forest name’ was Justice, and I attended all of the mass protests in the US between 1999 and 2001, often with a walkie talkie in hand. I got arrested for ‘locking down’ in Senator John McCain’s Tucson office on the day of the New Hampshire primary…before crashing his victory party at the Phoenix Hilton a short while later. I’ve participated in a mass public squat, sat in trees slated for logging, and once herded sheep for a Diné elder on the Navajo-Hopi Partitioned Land. I’ve experienced police brutality first-hand on multiple occasions, and the trauma from these experiences has been engraved deep in my bones…”
So there’s a little street cred for you. But I haven’t lived that lifestyle since I found myself single and pregnant (c. 2002), and this guide is shaped by many of my life experiences following my activist days. For example, I have a degree in economics, and underlying some of the tools is economic theory. I also extensively studied Wayfinder Coaching under Martha Beck, and I bring a few ‘coachy’ things into the toolkit as well. This toolkit takes a multi-faceted approach to flipping capitalism the bird. May you find it useful and satisfying.
