transformational processes

and curated convergences in virtual and physical spaces

On Jan 9th, we lost our KAVANÂ Malibu sanctuary to the flames….

KAVANÂ Malibu was more than a home. It was a true, shared space for community and transformation, devoted to igniting ripples of impact.

Thousands of heart-led humans came through the gates to connect, unveil, cry, laugh, dance, and leave with a deeper sense of purpose.

We at KAVANÂ believe this moment of utter destruction calls for us to rise - not as observers but as active co-stewards of a new society. 

For decades, the world has looked to LA for stories that shape the very fabric of culture and consciousness. Now, in the wake of the catastrophic fires that ravaged several iconic LA communities, a new narrative wants to be born, anchored in authentic collaboration, trust-led leadership, and bold innovation.

We have the opportunity to be a unified voice of regeneration, for LA and beyond.

The ash is our fertile soil for rebirth.

Imagine witnessing, in real time, as some of the most brilliant visionaries and changemakers form an alliance to reimagine what’s possible.

This vision is not just a dream—it’s the foundation of In Life We Trust…

an initiative dedicated to bringing these ideals to life and capturing the process in real time, ensuring its impact ripples into the hearts and minds of purpose-driven pioneers ready to co-create a more beautiful world.

How We Impact

MEDIA AS MEDICINE

Rewriting the Narrative

Media shapes the world we live in - they transmit the stories that define our beliefs, expand our possibilities, and chart the course of our collective future. For too long, we’ve been steeped in narratives of separation, dominance, and scarcity. But now, it’s time to turn the page. From breakdown to breakthrough, from blame to collaboration, we reclaim the pen to write a new story - one of trust, regeneration and shared purpose.

Through intentional storytelling, we harness our deep expertise in media - film, podcasts, and social platforms - to awaken awareness, inspire action, and showcase trust-led leadership in action. With a raw, unfiltered lens, we’ll document one community’s journey as it rises to form an alliance and embody a new narrative.

Beyond inspiration, we need stories that lead to integration

TRANFORMATION

Trust-led Leadership & Facilitation

At KAVANÂ, our established core competency as a team is to facilitate transformation with a combined five decades of experience. We are committed to showing up for those impacted by the fires and provide safe spaces to process, grieve, heal, and transform.

In addition, to empower the IN LIFE WE TRUST alliance to turn vision into collaborative action, KAVANÂ will craft and document bespoke, immersive, and trust-led processes, along with in-person experiences infused with art, music, and ritual to birth a new vision for LA and beyond.

Each in-person gathering will be captured and turned into a docu-series that provides living reference points for a powerful process of collaboration, which can be replicated by other communities across the globe.

CONVERGENCE

Online & In-Person

Immediately after the fires, we began offering free, online community calls where we offered tools and practices of support.

We plan to contribute our KAVANÂ Malibu land to the initiative to become a beacon for the rebuild of Los Angeles, and document every step of the journey of its rebirth. We will continue to be a sanctuary where visionaries and communities gather to be inspired, solve challenges, share wisdom, and connect through the power of music, art, and ritual—igniting ripples of trust, collaboration and renewal. 

To realize this vision, we’ll partner with pioneers in collaborative leadership, regenerative communities, sustainable architecture and agri-hoods to:

  • Establish Ethos & Design Process for the design and re-build of the KAVANÂ Malibu Center for Convergence rooted in open-source principles, regenerative design, and collaborative, integrated leadership.

  • Develop a Blueprint that can serve as a replicable template for other communities, and open-source all of our learnings for a sustainable approach .

  • Activate the Center as a hub for community gatherings, transformational experiences, and the modeling of trust-led leadership and collaboration.
