The
Curious Souls
Community
The Community Is the Center
Curious Souls is not built around a teacher, a facilitator, or a single way of seeing. Each person remains the center of their own experience, while the community becomes a place to encounter what cannot be discovered alone.
​
Lilit and Omer help shape the conditions: experiences rooted in curiosity, presence,
honest participation, and respect for each person’s authority.
But the community is created by everyone who enters it.
​
What happens here belongs to the field between us.
Who Are the
Curious Souls?
No one arrives without fear, shame, or uncertainty. What we often recognize in one another is a curiosity, devotion, or courage strong enough to keep moving alongside them.
​
Some come longing for more depth. More aliveness. More freedom. More authenticity. More of themselves and more of each other. Not because they share the same answers, but because they sense that something else may be possible and are willing to meet the unknown with curiosity.
​
They care about how they show up as partners, friends, parents, and members of a community. They are devoted to becoming more conscious participants in the lives they are creating.
​
They also like to have fun. They appreciate beauty, play, mischief, and the relief of being somewhere that does not require performance.
​
As we grow older, meeting new people can become surprisingly difficult. Social circles often narrow, and many of our closest friendships were formed before the person we are now had fully emerged.
​
Here, new friendships can begin through honesty rather than circumstance. People find depth without heaviness, play without pretense, and kinship without needing to become the same.
​
Meaning and enjoyment belong together here. So do personal development and a genuinely good time.
What Has Grown Between Us
We did not plan these outcomes. We created places for people to meet honestly, then watched their relationships begin taking on lives of their own.
People who first met in ceremony now share dinners, build businesses, travel across the world, and show up for one another through the changing seasons of their lives. Connections have traveled from Michigan to Boulder, from Boulder to Panama, and from Panama to Israel.
Everyone from the first Adulthood Pilgrimage came to our wedding. Some people have become partners. Friendships have deepened. A long-awaited marriage proposal unfolded during one of our private ceremonies. We are still smiling about that one.
The community continues to cross-pollinate in ways we could never have orchestrated. People introduce one another, welcome each other into their homes, create together, celebrate together, and remain present through moments of uncertainty and change.
What began in living rooms has become a web of friendship, collaboration, travel, celebration, and care. At times, it feels a lot like chosen family.
"You and the group helped me feel that I am seen and accepted by a tribe, by a family of brothers and sisters. You helped me feel that I am loved, I am worthy of love, and that I belong."
— Tony
"It feels like something lasting was built - a meaningful, local community that I'm grateful and proud to be part of."
— Jonah
How
It
Lives
The Curious Souls community is not a platform or a membership. It has no ranks and no single center.
​
It lives in the ceremonies and experiences we share. In The Campfire, where conversations continue long after a gathering has ended. In dinners, phone calls, unexpected reunions, and messages that simply say, “I thought of you today.” It lives across our online spaces and wherever people choose to remain in relationship.
​
It also travels home with each person.
​
A partner encounters a different quality of presence. A child meets a parent who pauses before reacting. A friend senses that something has shifted, even if neither of them can quite name it. A conversation begins where silence once lived. Possibilities discovered together begin finding form in ordinary life.
​
Perhaps this is the community’s quietest expression: not what happens inside a ceremony or gathering, but what continues moving through relationships afterward.
​
It lives in Boulder, Michigan, Panama, Santa Fe, California, and wherever else two Curious Souls find themselves. It lives within the Adulthood Pilgrimage, where people across countries and time zones travel through nine months of becoming together.
​
Sometimes it appears wherever two people recognize something familiar in one another and feel a little less alone.
​
There is no single doorway into this community.
​
Some people arrive through a ceremony or retreat. Others through the Adulthood Pilgrimage, a community gathering, a conversation, something shared online, or a friend who sensed that they might feel at home here.
​
No doorway opens in quite the same way for everyone.
​
We will not convince you that this is where you belong. Belonging begins with enough freedom to notice what draws you closer and what does not.
​
If something here feels alive, you are welcome to follow that curiosity. Explore an upcoming gathering. Discover one of our experiences. Reach out and begin a conversation.
​
We are not building a following. We are tending a field.
​
Perhaps we will meet you somewhere inside it.
