Our Vision
COMMON GROUND AND GREATER GOOD
For too long, we have been led astray by those who fuel and prey on our anxiety and animosity. The despair and discord that these industries and individuals use to peddle their goods misrepresents our essential nature. We are much better than how we are portrayed. We have evolved beyond this madness. So, let's put it to rest. 

Humans are innately kind and connected, and we agree on most things—including your right to life-affirming environments and our ability to work together to provide these. Remembering and acting on this is where you find hope, peace of mind, and joy—and how you can add more meaning to your life. 

Do you want to create and have more good and more meaning in your life, right now? If yes, click here!

When we focus on what we share, we thrive. Like countless others, Ken Streater has witnessed this time and again in threadbare and flourishing places around the world. His steadfast belief in our capacity to fix what ails us comes from eye-opening experiences and deep interactions with everyday heroes across the globe.  Be it showdowns with angry hippos, tropical nuclear attacks, billionaire shenanigans, Siberian soccer wars, conversations with changemakers like you, or by studying and writing about behavior and cultures from Alaska to Zimbabwe, these events and others motivate Ken to foster positive change.  

We invite you to discover "good" ideas, along with simple but powerful steps you can take to make your life and the lives around you even better. Find out how you can help—and how you can benefit.
ACCESS MORE GOOD!
