What does it mean
to Be the change?
I’d be remiss not to mention Gandhi…and how the directive: “You must be the change you wish to see in the world” has been falsely attributed to him. I say this to ward off any discourse on what he might have meant by it (since he didn’t actually say it) and to instead focus on what I believe it means at this point in time.
‘Be the Change’—Take 1
At its most elemental level, ‘be the change’ means to live in deep integrity with your soul. At least that’s what it means to me. This path is available in various capacities to all of us.
As fluffy as this may sound, in practice it’s actually quite tangible.
Each and every decision we face offers us the opportunity to either move into deeper integrity with who we are…or to move further away from our truest selves.
‘Be the Change’—Take 2
For some of us, the call to ‘be the change’ means to actively work to dismantle systems of oppression like capitalism in ways that support the world our souls yearn to create.
For example, engaging in direct action or mutual aid work.
I lived and breathed this path from 1999 - 2001. It is not for everyone, and there is no shame if it is not for you. This program honors both paths.
‘Be the change’ isn’t a cute meme—it's a Vital DIRECTIVE.
I don’t know about you, but as I’m watching in horror as the US & Israel are bombing Iran, Lebanon, and Gaza into oblivion, and as our consumption is driving humanity to dig its own grave, liking a meme that’s calling on me to ‘be the change’ feels…PATHETICALLY INSUFFICIENT.
We can do better.
Not through performative acts that change nothing but through very real, very doable changes in how we show up in the world. And this wisdom already resides in us.
‘Being the change’ doesn’t promise any sort of outcomes. But it’s what we must do if we have any chance of bringing change to the world.
Who My words are for
MY WORDS, MY WORK, & THE OFFER I’M ABOUT TO UNVEIL ARE FOR MY SISTERS & GENDERQUEER SIBS WHO KNOW IN THEIR BONES THAT CAPITALISM IS A TRAVESTY.
Who are watching in horror as ICE kidnaps—and sometimes even executes—their neighbors in broad daylight. Who are watching the US slide into authoritarianism and are wondering how much worse things are going to get. Who are watching deranged powerful men drop bombs drop on Iran, Lebanon, and Gaza because they can—because no one’s going to stop them.
Who have spent hours lamenting with friends (likely over bottles of vino) about just how fucked up everything is, while feeling guilty for not actually doing anything about it. Who bring cloth bags to the grocery store, while knowing full well that there is so much more they could be doing to ‘do their part’. Who go to yoga class and down-dog and say ‘namaste’, while recognizing just how privileged it is to be able to ‘love and light’ away societal ills.
Who are standing at the threshold, knowing that they can’t continue ‘keep on keeping on’ but not knowing if they have what it takes to cross that threshold and step into the next room. Who want to do something tangible and real to gunk up the capitalist machine—whether that’s through direct action, quitting Amazon, sharing their views on Substack, or doing something completely different.
Who want to feel empowered and free. Who refuse to ignore the cries of their neighbors. Who are willing to take a stand—whether it’s with their dollars or words or actions. Who recognize that they don’t have to become revolutionaries or protestors to gunk up the capitalist machine. Who just have to be willing to do what their souls are already guiding them to do.
IS THIS YOU?
CATALYST
SPRING '26
CATALYST Is A Potent 36-day wayfinding & Circling Experience
It’s a virtual container that empowers you to respond to the existentially-threatening fuckery of our times by ‘being the change’ and moving into deeper integrity with who you are.
CATALYST’s foundations
✹
6 Sharing
Circles
So you can feel held as you work the hard shit out in community and hold space for others to do the same.
✹
Weekly office Hours
So you can get spot coaching when you’re stuck and gain clarity on what your unique path looks like.
✹
A Library of Practices
Think meditations, reflections, rituals, and more to facilitate clarity on what ‘being the change’ means to you.
Circles
Process the really hard shit in Circle
Sharing circles are the backbone of CATALYST, and we'll have six of them. I facilitate circles differently than most, where we make agreements as a group that create our circling container's structure, and where each participant receives equal time to share (with either their words or silence). These circles have the power to be truly transformative.
Wayfinding
Get Expert spot coaching when you need it
Weekly 'office hours' are an opportunity to receive spot-coaching (spot-wayfinding) when you need it and to ask questions when you have them. These calls are entirely optional but encouraged—even if you don't need any coaching—as we learn from and get inspired by each other's coaching experiences and processing of challenges.
Direction
Use me as a wise sounding board
As a coach, I'm here to help you uncover your own answers. As a woman who's spent decades committed to 'being the change,’ who's flipped capitalism the bird in some pretty radical ways, and who’s constantly learning and integrating, my well of wisdom runs deep. As your guide, I'm here to integrate these two roles in service to you.

Step Three
Block out your calendar! I highly recommend prioritizing our weekly circles. If you can also block out your calendar for office hours, too, you will be giving your future self a gift!
Results you’ll likely experience
01
MORE
CLARITY
Clarity on how to translate what you value into 'being the change.' Clarity on what you’re actually being called to do. Clarity on how to ‘read’ your inner GPS.
02
MORE
Integrity
Alignment with how you present and who you are. Alignment between your values and actions. Integrity that heightens trust, respect, and even leadership.
03
MORE
PUrpose
Feeling purpose-driven. 'Finding' your purpose. Responding intentionally, from a place of purpose. Knowing deep in your bones that your life has purpose.
CATALYST May Be a Great Fit for You If…
You're fed up—perhaps that’s not a strong enough word?!—with the latest onset of capitalist fuckery and watch in horror as our world burns to the ground. You've crossed a threshold (there’s no going back!) where you feel compelled to 'be the change,' whatever this means to you.
You’re tired of feeling powerless. You are feeling courageous and ready to live in deeper integrity with your values.
You crave the power of sharing circles, where other compassionate humans will hold space for you as you cross this threshold.
You’re looking for a guide, not a leader. You don’t want to be told what to do—you want to be nudged towards your own well of wisdom.
While Catalyst is new,
it Ain’t my first rodeo.
ENJOY SOME LOVE FROM SISTERS WHO’VE SAT IN MY CIRCLES.
“The community of women I found through this circle has helped me feel witnessed and safely held. I have felt my self-esteem grow after each circle. I feel more ME than ever. Kristi is not only a wonderful facilitator, she is a delightful, beautiful and totally badass human.”
— Madi R.“Gathering with sisters is masterfully facilitated by Kristi. The sacredness of the circle is held with each sister being able to share from her own experience and what is important to her in the present. It's wonderful to be in a space that is non-judgmental, accepting, and also has boundaries so that everyone feels welcome.”
— Goddess Sherry“Kristi is just herself, and that allows authenticity to permeate the circles she holds. What power and beauty that can come from creating space to BE, to share, to connect! Having space like that, shared with others, allowed real learning and growth for me personally. I am so grateful!”
— Julie B.“The sister circles bring me life, grounding, and community. I am able to be my true authentic self and feel seen by my sisters. I always look forward to the circles and never feel like they’re just one more thing on my list that I have to do.”
— Olivia
circles Foster belonging…
…and are a salve for the devastation inflicted by capitalism & other fuckery.
You aren’t alone—you are part of a growing movement of kind and compassionate humans who yearn to create a better world that respects the sacredness of life, Mama Earth, and our interconnectedness. Holding space for each other’s processing of these times is a transformative experience that I yearn for you to have!
Throughout This Container You’ll move into deeper integrity.
CATALYST asks you deep questions, taps you into your inner GPS, and moves you to explore what ‘being the change’ looks like for you, all in the company of kind and compassionate humans who are on this journey with you. Here’s a taste of the work we’ll be doing:
We’ll explore why this work even matters, given the magnitude of capitalism and other existentially-threatening fuckery.
We’ll get crystal clear as individuals on what our values are and where we’re out of integrity in our own lives.
We’ll discern what ‘being the change’ looks like, given our unique circumstances, access constraints, and values.
We’ll work through resistance, set boundaries, and transform our intentions into commitments.
We’ll foster community and build our supports.

You Could Continue to Play it ‘safe’…
→ To not move into deeper integrity. Because being courageous is scary AF. And that’s okay—no judgment (I promise).
→ To feel overwhelmed and powerless as you watch the world burn at an accelerating rate. And that’s so understandable.
→ To expect the deranged mega-rich men to fix the disasters that they’ve created and/or perpetuated. And they should!
Or you could choose to be the change, move into deeper integrity with your soul, and hold space for others who are feeling as enraged and scared and fed up with capitalism and this fuckery as you are. Because you know in your bones that this is the work you are being called to do.

hi! My name’s Kristi.
I'm a Deeper Integrity Coach & Circle Facilitator
I’m also an intersectional feminist and anti-capitalist who once—during a moment of weakness—paid a coach five figures in exchange for her group program that promised to make me so ‘magnetic’ that clients would flock to me and sign up for expensive coaching engagements. Unfortunately, I took the bait, then (unsurprisingly) discovered that her approach borrowed heavily from capitalism’s playbook. The whole experience was so sickening and out of integrity for me that I quit her container early. A painful lesson learned.
I do things differently. The humans I work with already reside at a higher level of consciousness and want their work with me to honor that. They aren’t here to 'win' at capitalism but to flourish—in spite of it and without compromising their values. To live in alignment with who they truly are. To stand in their power and reject the gaslit ‘American Dream.’ To take up radical space where it isn’t always welcomed. To liberate righteous anger while staying rooted in fierce love. To create. To remember. To be the change.
This is what Deeper Integrity Coaching and Circling looks like.
Q&A
Q&A
-
Listen to your body—it knows! If this advice isn’t very helpful at this stage in the game, I encourage you to book a zero-pressure 20-minute discovery call with me so that we can explore whether it may be a good fit.
-
Yes, all calls will be recorded—with these caveats:
The sharing portion of our circles will not be recorded.
You may ask me to pause the recording before you speak, regardless of what’s happening.
Breakout rooms—if employed—won’t be recorded.
Here is how the recordings will be handled:
They will be posted to our Squarespace portal. Barring a data breach, unauthorized access, or hack, they are not accessible to anyone who is not enrolled in this container.
They will remain in our portal for 30 days following our last circle.
Unless a member requests call transcriptions for accessibility purposes, I will not knowingly employ any AI technologies in our container.
No AI note-takers will be admitted.
-
We will gather in circle for two hours each week over the course of 36 days. (that’s six circles in total). These circles form the backbone of this container.
Office Hours will be held for one hour each week, for five in total. These are intended to support you and are encouraged but less important than the circles themselves.
Every Wednesday from May 13th through June 10th, you will receive an email from me that includes the week’s theme, teachings, reflection prompts, and a ritual or other practice (note that our first circle is an opening circle). If that week includes a guided meditation, visualization, or journey, a link will be included. All of this is optional—though highly encouraged—and will probably take you an hour or two to work through. All materials will be posted in the portal.
-
To encourage early signups, I am offering complimentary a 1:1 Deeper Integrity Coaching Session to anyone who registers by April 20th.
As a Wayfinder Master Coach, I can help you go deeper with the material and help you work through unexpected struggles using coaching tools that we won’t have time to break out during a group session.
You can also use this time to ‘pick my brain’ if you’re looking for real-world ideas from someone who has spent time in the so-called trenches.
-
I’m not able to offer any financial assistance for this round of CATALYST. This rate is an introductory rate, and it is important that CATALYST is financially sustainable for me. Future rounds of CATALYST may have different pricing structures and opportunities for financial assistance.
-
Yes. You may pay-in-full upfront, or you may choose the two-payment option. I do not penalize anyone by charging more for payment plans. If you would like to create a more extended payment plan, I can work with you. Just ask!
-
I do not offer refunds. Your registration may have been the deciding factor in terms of whether it was economically viable for me to move forward with this program. Or, it may have meant that another human couldn’t join. So, please slow down the decision-making process and consider whether you truly want to join CATALYST now, whether it’s a financially solid decision for you, and whether you have the time to make it worth your while.
-
While I truly hope that you can make every circle, I get that life happens! So no, there is no requirement that you attend all calls.
When deciding whether CATALYST is for you, keep in mind that the live circles offer you an incredibly potent space to process the week’s teachings and applications, whereas watching a replay of a circle that you didn’t attend is no where near as powerful (plus, you won’t get to hear other’s shares). So I encourage you to do what you can to prioritize our live circles.
If you have concerns, please reach out to me at kristi@deeperintegrity.love or book a free, 20-minute discovery call before registering for CATALYST.
