A Testimonial We Love …

The education and framework they use to enlighten about transformational travel literally broke my mind and heart in the best way possible.

The global community of likeminded people who truly want to consider the people, the environment, and ecosystems as they travel— to not just reduce our footprints but to participate in regeneration for all involved in the travel impact.

The empowerment! Helping me see that I—yes, this party of one— can make a tremendous impact and create space for transformation.”

Mellini Monique

“The TTC community is where all the earth’s genius is hid —like an ant colony. You can’t readily see it, but they are working and building and soon enough you will see the groundswell.”

Testimonials

 

We Commune on Sutra

We’re very proud to have our global Communitas hosted on the Sutra Platform. The heart of Sutra is awareness in action!

“Our mission is to create a global ecosystem of relational learning spaces that invite humanity, meaningful connection, and shared understanding. We do this by providing educators with tools and resources to create powerful group experiences. We believe there has never been a greater need for presence and our aspiration is to build software that fosters mutual support and empathy through dialogue, co-creation, and learning.” - Team Sutra

 
“After years of difficulty and reflection, most people today want to change. They want to work differently, think differently, and manage their health and well-being better. They want to use tools and technologies that deliver personal transformation. And not just deliver, sustain. All types of companies and organizations can play a role in helping people to change and become what they want to become. 
”
— Aransas Savas, Transformation Economy Collaborative
