The session opened with James Redenbaugh sharing the latest round of UI refinements, and the overall reaction from the team was strongly positive (05:50). The deep teal dark mode background was a clear hit — James noted he's "falling in love with it," and Michael Shaun Conaway confirmed his first impression was a "solidly yes." Light mode will still be available, but the dark teal direction is locked in as the primary aesthetic.
Vertical card styles were confirmed as the preferred orientation, framed by the team as feeling like "doorways" — inviting entry into someone's world rather than presenting a flat list (07:44). The signup flow will include three profile image preview styles (circle, square, and doorway/vertical) to ensure photos work across all use cases.

The current highlight color was flagged as slightly too dark to be readable at a glance (08:30). James walked through the emerging color language:
Mariko pushed for colors that pop more clearly, with Hera suggesting something like a sage or lighter tone for the green. The team agreed to revisit the palette but moved on without finalizing specific values.
For the suggested connections axis, Michael Shaun noted the "strong alignment / broader exploration" spectrum wasn't immediately readable (11:03). A subtle dividing line — possibly with arrowheads — was proposed to make the continuum legible at a glance without requiring the user to think about it. James confirmed the axis is logarithmic in style, giving more visual space to closer connections.
James introduced a new pill-style member modal that collapses to just two lines by default, expanding on hover to reveal icons for messages, Holons, and light/dark mode toggle (13:06). Notifications aggregate into a single indicator on the Holon icon — the number changes rather than spawning multiple dots. The team loved the Holon icon in this context, especially paired with the notification system.
Moenja has completely overhauled the profile page design, introducing a clean bento-style layout with rounded corners, subtle background color differentiation between sections, and a centered tagline with a framed profile image (14:21). The team's reaction was enthusiastic — "very sharp," "very clean."
Key design discussions on profile pages:
Mariko raised a useful tension: the profile centers the person beautifully, but their work or project also deserves some elevation — the platform's members tend to be people whose careers and purpose are integrated, so their project should have a visual presence, not just a text mention (31:42).
[technology="Community Facilitation Tools"]
This was one of the most generative discussions of the session. The current suggested connections view on the directory was affirmed as the right home for proximity-based recommendations. But the team converged on a richer on-demand match experience triggered by a "Match Me" button — either on a member card or from the directory view (26:00).
Key ideas for the matching experience:
Hera noted that showing a match percentage could even incentivize profile completion: incomplete profiles mean lower or no matchability — "you're unmatchable" becomes a playful motivator (24:35).
[technology="Intelligent Matching Algorithms"]
The team reviewed the current domain list and made several proposed changes (43:00):
The conversation also touched on how domains are used: during profile creation they represent what someone is involved in; during browsing they represent interest. Mariko flagged that unfamiliar terms like "collaborative commerce" might cause people to skip domains they actually belong in — so onboarding copy and tooltip language will need to be clear and inviting (48:22). Short hover descriptions (one sentence max) were agreed upon rather than full paragraphs.
[technology="Directory Systems"]
James proposed a 7–10 day window to fully implement the new design style, the Field feature, and preliminary matching functionality (41:07). The team aligned on a cautious rollout protocol:
Michael Shaun was emphatic that first impressions matter: "I want to move beyond the 'oh, this is great except it didn't work' experience" (40:08). The priority is making sure the first real experience lands flat-out well.
Hera raised the need for a lightweight but consistent weekly status reporting tool — not a full project management overhaul, just something that shows what's in progress, what's blocked, and a summary of active bugs (54:50). She proposed a RAG (Red/Amber/Green) table format — simple enough that Emmanuel, Laura, or any stakeholder could check it at a glance.
James clarified that the existing project map is primarily an architecture reference — tracking pages, Supabase [tag="supabase"] tables, custom scripts, and copy needs — not a sprint tracker. Both tools serve different purposes and both are needed.

Implement vertical card styles with doorway orientation across profile views
Implement vertical card orientation across profile displays to create 'doorway' feeling that invites entry into someone's world rather than flat list presentation. Team consensus at 07:44. Includes ensuring photos work across three preview styles (circle, square, doorway) during signup.
Refine highlight color to improve readability and finalize color palette with team
Current highlight color flagged as too dark for at-a-glance readability at 08:30. Revise color palette including: Teal for Holons, Yellow for Ambassadors/Synergists, Green for Alliances (possibly sage or lighter tone per Hera's suggestion), distinct colors for Seeking/Offering states, and individual colors per domain tag. Share revised options with Mariko for specific feedback per 09:03.
Add dividing line with arrowheads to suggested connections axis for improved readability
Add subtle dividing line with arrowheads to make the 'strong alignment / broader exploration' continuum immediately readable without requiring users to think about it. Michael Shaun noted at 11:03 that spectrum wasn't immediately readable. Axis uses logarithmic style giving more visual space to closer connections.
Build simplified pill-style member modal with collapsed/expanded states and Holon notification badge
Build pill-style member modal that collapses to two lines by default, expanding on hover to reveal icons for messages, Holons, and light/dark mode toggle. Notifications aggregate into single indicator on Holon icon with number changing rather than spawning multiple dots. Introduced at 13:06 with positive team response.
Implement redesigned profile pages with bento-style layout and rounded corner sections
Implement Moenja's profile page redesign featuring bento-style layout with rounded corners, subtle background color differentiation between sections, and centered tagline with framed profile image. Team reaction was enthusiastic ('very sharp,' 'very clean') at 14:21. Includes assessment slider display, seeking/offering keywords, and structured content blocks.
Add rich text field with optional image upload capability to profile project section
Add rich text field with optional image upload to let users represent their project or organization more expressively — logo, artwork, or slider of images — rather than being limited to plain text boxes. Proposed at 32:10 to address Mariko's concern at 31:42 that members' work deserves visual elevation since careers and purpose are integrated for this community.
Design and implement testimonial/endorsement system with mutual-connection logic
Build testimonial system (potentially rebranded as 'Send Some Love' or 'Share the Love' per 34:54) showing mutual endorsements to encourage reciprocal vouching between members. Include logic to prevent spam collection behavior. Mariko to collaborate on copy and branding to make it feel warm and mutual rather than formal.
Build Field feature for profile with user posts, pinning capability, and optional image attachment
Add 'Field' (replacing concept of 'wall') allowing users to post updates and collaborative content with pinning capability. Discussed at 39:43. Long-term vision includes drag-and-drop section ordering so members can prioritize what appears first based on their own story. Part of 7-10 day implementation window.
Build on-demand match modal with dynamic score generation and side-by-side alignment comparison
Build on-demand match experience triggered by 'Match Me' button on member card or directory view. Display numerical score (1-100, shown on hover) and side-by-side comparison modal showing complementary skills, needs/offers alignment, shared alliances, and overlapping domains. Include brief loading/analysis animation to make generation feel intentional. Michael Shaun emphasized at 19:02 that value is showing WHY people matched, not just that they did. Hera noted at 24:35 this incentivizes profile completion ('you're unmatchable' as playful motivator).
Implement hover enlargement with blur effect on connection strength bubbles in suggested connections view
Add hover interaction to connection strength visualization bubbles that enlarges hovered bubble and blurs others for improved focus and readability. Part of UI refresh implementation discussed at 05:50.
Revise domain categories list and add short hover descriptions for each domain
Update domain categories per team discussion at 43:00: Change 'Economics and New Systems' to 'Economics and Collaborative Commerce', split 'Governance and Social Change' into 'Collaborative Governance' and separate social change, add 'Ethics and Philosophy', add 'Science', add 'Leadership and Facilitation' as 12th domain, consider adding 'Psychology' embedded in community/relationships. Add one-sentence max hover descriptions to clarify unfamiliar terms per Mariko's concern at 48:22 that terms like 'collaborative commerce' might cause people to skip domains they belong in.
Execute 7-10 day implementation window for UI refresh, Field feature, and preliminary matching functionality
Complete full implementation of new design style, Field feature, and preliminary matching functionality within 7-10 day window proposed at 41:07. Followed by internal testing phase with core four before broader team access. Michael Shaun emphasized at 40:08 that first impressions matter: 'I want to move beyond the oh, this is great except it didn't work experience.'
Coordinate internal testing phase with core four team members after implementation window
Coordinate 7-10 days of internal testing with core four team members to surface and fix obvious bugs before wider exposure. Only bring in broader core team after internal testing validates quality. Hera to coordinate onboarding once James confirms internal testing window is open per 40:00.
Draft RAG table format for weekly status reporting and email template to team
Create lightweight weekly status reporting tool using RAG (Red/Amber/Green) table format showing what's in progress, what's blocked, and active bugs summary. Proposed by Hera at 54:50 to provide at-a-glance visibility for Emmanuel, Laura, and stakeholders. Draft concept and email to full team as reporting template per 55:32.
Send Collaborative Commerce paper to Mariko and James for domain category context
Share Collaborative Commerce paper with Mariko and James to provide context for domain category rename from 'Economics and New Systems' to 'Economics and Collaborative Commerce'. Action item noted at 44:02.
Define five or six core dimensions for match comparison modal display
Provide input on the five or six core dimensions the match comparison modal should surface. Should focus on meaningful dimensions like complementary skills, needs/offers alignment, shared alliances, and overlapping domains of interest rather than raw data like event attendance. Referenced at 27:24.
Review revised color palette options and provide specific feedback to James
Review updated color palette once James shares revised options addressing readability concerns. Mariko pushed for colors that pop more clearly at 08:30, with team agreement to revisit palette. Action noted at 09:03.
Collaborate on testimonial system copy and branding to make it warm and mutual
Work with James on testimonial system copy and branding to make it feel warm and mutual rather than formal. Potential names like 'Send Some Love' or 'Share the Love' discussed at 34:54. Ensure language encourages reciprocal vouching.
Refine domain selection onboarding prompts to clarify unfamiliar terminology
Help refine domain selection prompts so onboarding language is clear for less familiar terms like 'collaborative commerce'. Mariko flagged at 48:22 that unfamiliar terms might cause people to skip domains they actually belong in. Coordinate with James on one-sentence max hover descriptions.
Strategic enhancement of directory system integrating with membership capabilities to enable member profile management, progressive assessment completion, and intelligent matching. Members can log in and edit their profiles directly with information stored in Supabase for flexible content management. Progressive engagement model starts with basic five-minute setup (name, website, purpose statement, location), then enables detailed assessments later. Each completed assessment adds profile elements and unlocks features including AI-generated visual representations (icons, tarot archetypes, numerology graphics). Integration with Claude AI enables sophisticated queries like 'who should I collaborate with on this project?' or 'who can provide funding?' across network assessment data. Advanced features include weekly emotional mapping interface with six-axis emotional space (excitement, nervousness, grief, etc.) aggregating into community climate visualizations. Reimagined map interface using flat Earth projection with layered filtering showing member locations, funding flows, collaborative connections, project relationships. Multiple view modes from simplified default to complex multi-layered 'Arcturian' views. Integration with Engine for Good grant program where applications link to member profiles, creating incentive structure for profile completion. Team pivoted to prioritize directory system over LMS development. Player card approach focuses on game-like profiles emphasizing what someone is doing (project/mission) and what help they need for AI-powered matching. System summarizes lengthy inputs into concise scannable formats. MVP launch target February 15 with login capability, profile editing, and integrated assessments. Beta testing program follows to identify next priority features. Critical development discussion revealed MapBox visualization provides initial visual interest but limited practical value beyond local connections - intelligent matching algorithms represent the true 'killer app' rather than map visualization. Profile data strategy shifting from personality assessments to actionable information: developmental stage, experience level, current project involvement, specific skills, and active needs. Visual consistency issues identified with user-uploaded images requiring standardization. Question emerged whether Holons function as independent entities or collections of individual members, requiring data architecture decisions. Simplified terminology 'members and groups' proposed over 'Holons' for newcomer clarity. Basic intake form planned capturing development level, experience, life stage, purpose, and current needs as primary assessment for matching foundation. Player card UI concept introduced featuring icons to symbolize key information, AI-generated summaries to condense lengthy responses, and achievement badges displaying completed courses, assessments, and accomplishments. Design iteration process planned where team scans test cards to validate information hierarchy. Sandbox database creation for core team to fill out profiles and review each other's player cards as real-world test. Prototype development progressing with profile creation, editing, viewing, and password resets functional in Supabase. Munia developing first draft UI designs. Team agreed to reduce text density, create more visual/scannable interfaces. Multiple views prototyped: alliance view, profile editing, directory search (list and map-based), member profiles, holon profiles. Core intake fields defined: name, date of birth, email, phone/SMS/WhatsApp, location, purpose/mission, gifts and requests, alliance affiliations, short bio (150 words max), photo. Matching deferred from numerical compatibility scores to simpler connection signals: complementary skills, matching needs/offers, alliance overlap, geographic proximity, shared purpose domains. AI interpretation via Claude for free-text fields, direct computation for explicit matches. App functionality to be hosted on separate subdomain (app.holomovement.net) with member-specific navigation, syncing public profile data to main site member globe. End of February target for core team interactive prototype. 3D globe navigation now live with lightweight custom rendering approach using continent outlines without full Mapbox tile loading for smooth performance (05:52). Globe features toggle for flat view, hover-activated profile cards, connection lines between members and holons. People appear as yellow dots, holons as teal hexagons algorithmically placed at center of members (01:22). Profile creation flow implemented as linear step-by-step process requiring profile completion before directory access (09:38). Photos strongly encouraged with friendly nudges if skipped, social profiles optional. AI-generated banner images based on user bios producing resonant results (15:47). Light/dark mode toggle available inheriting system settings by default (16:39). Dark backgrounds using deep teal rather than pure black, light mode avoiding stark white to maintain Holomovement brand feel (14:35). Vertical player cards chosen for directory view over horizontal layouts for gamified engaging presentation (37:52). Team seeding platform this week with core team members completing profiles Monday/Tuesday, creating holons Wednesday, reviewing experience Thursday core call (43:53). Polish focus prioritized over new features with delivery target Monday February 17 (41:20). New bento-style profile layout introduced with rounded corners, centered tagline, framed profile image, and subtle background color differentiation between sections (14:21). Rich text field with optional image upload added to represent projects or organizations more expressively beyond plain text (32:10). Testimonials system (potentially rebranded as 'Send Some Love' or 'Share the Love') enables mutual endorsements with reciprocal vouching mechanics (34:54). Field feature replacing 'wall' concept allows users to post updates and collaborative content with pinning capability (39:43). Long-term vision includes drag-and-drop section ordering for personalized profile storytelling. Assessment display framework showing sliders across domains added as visible badges on profiles. Seeking/Offering keywords auto-distilled from freeform text using AI summarization to aid readability and matching. On-demand match experience triggered by 'Match Me' button generates side-by-side comparison modal with numerical score (1-100, shown on hover), loading animation, and meaningful dimensions including complementary skills, needs/offers alignment, shared alliances, overlapping domains (26:00, 19:02). Match score and comparison view designed as sticky gamified feature incentivizing profile completion (24:35). Domain categories refined: 'Economics and New Systems' → 'Economics and Collaborative Commerce', 'Governance and Social Change' split into 'Collaborative Governance' and separate social change, 'Spiritual Activism and Inner Development' → 'Spirituality and Consciousness', additions include Ethics and Philosophy, Science, Leadership and Facilitation as 12th domain, potential Psychology embedded in community/relationships (43:00-48:22). Onboarding copy and tooltip language prioritized for clarity on unfamiliar terms with short hover descriptions (one sentence max). Implementation timeline: 7-10 day dev window for new design style, Field feature, preliminary matching functionality followed by internal testing with core four, then broader core team rollout (41:07, 40:08). First impressions prioritized with cautious rollout protocol to ensure solid initial experience. Messaging icon refined from email-style button to message icon to better reflect in-platform nature (13:29). UI review scheduled for Thursday 8:00 AM PST to review Munia's designs before implementation begins (01:01:00).
Custom membership system architecture for user authentication, progress tracking, and database management using Supabase for backend. Requirements include real database for user progress (not cookies), journal entry capture, API triggers for membership status and course purchases, and progress tracking across sessions. Decision made to build custom solution on Supabase rather than Member Stack. Includes Stripe integration for subscription management and automatic access revocation when subscriptions lapse. Multiple products may connect to same membership tier with bundled offerings granting multiple memberships from single purchase. Part of Phase One development with $16K-$29K budget. Requires hiring Supabase specialist for implementation. Timeline aligned with LMS development for February 10th launch. Authentication spike will establish foundation with Supabase login functionality on MAST template, implementing user profiles, password management, and session handling. System will sync membership status between Stripe and Supabase for automated access control. Backend successfully operational with membership login and content gating complete using Supabase and Stripe. Profile editing integration in progress to connect with directory system. Backend approximately 90% complete with primary goal to deliver working version on Holomovement site for team testing this week allowing account creation, login, and profile data editing. Front end minimal at this stage consisting mainly of login pages until profile pages developed. Profile creation flow now implemented as linear step-by-step process requiring profile completion before directory access (09:38). Sign-up flow includes friendly nudges for empty bios when hitting next (12:42), optional social profiles with language like 'you can always come back later' to reduce drop-off (12:30), loading screen during profile generation with engaging copy like 'making connections' (15:15), AI-generated banner images based on user bios (15:47), and light/dark mode toggle inheriting system settings by default (16:39). System enforces profile completion to ensure data quality and prevent half-finished accounts cluttering database (11:21). Dark backgrounds use deep teal rather than pure black, light mode avoids stark white to maintain Holomovement brand feel (14:35). Simplified pill-style member modal implemented with collapsed/expanded states showing two lines by default, expanding on hover to reveal icons for messages, Holons, and light/dark mode toggle (13:06). Notifications aggregate into single indicator on Holon icon with changing number rather than multiple dots. Three profile image preview styles (circle, square, doorway/vertical) included in signup flow to ensure photos work across all use cases (07:44). In-app messaging system now live using custom-built architecture with no per-message cost, styled similar to iMessage with unread message counts, conversation threading, and future group chat capability (09:37). Email notifications handled via Resend - free up to 3,000 emails/month, then $20/month for up to 50,000 (23:56). Holon management flow improved with clear delegation model between members and admins using invitation system rather than automatic adds (04:08). Location automation uses lightweight AI call to convert entered location into coordinates for near real-time map updates (26:27). Saving bug affecting profile updates, feedback, and location syncing identified and resolved during meeting (26:27). Community consent flow being added as pop-up on first messaging use with scrollable community agreements and required checkboxes covering non-partisanship, anti-spam, entity usage rules, and conduct standards (18:00). GDPR compliance considerations noted with Webflow plugin available for data erasure rights and cookie consent (17:46).
Custom 3D globe navigation system for member and holon visualization using lightweight rendering approach with continent outlines rather than full Mapbox tile loading for smooth performance. Globe features toggle between 3D and flat views, hover-activated profile cards showing member photos and information, and connection lines visualizing relationships between members and holons. Members appear as yellow dots, holons as teal hexagons with algorithmic placement at center of member clusters rather than geographic coordinates (01:22). System pulls real profile data dynamically with headshots appearing on hover (03:51). Dark mode enforced on map page since glowing member dots work best against dark backgrounds using deep teal rather than pure black (19:06, 14:35). Future enhancements include progressive zoom behavior borrowing from Google Maps patterns - at certain zoom depth globe transitions to list or directory view showing nearby members with potential matching integration (05:04). Architecture provides full control for implementing layered zoom experiences. Scaling considerations addressed including node resizing on zoom to prevent dense regions like U.S. East Coast from becoming unreadable (04:44). Photos appear only on hover to maintain clean graphical line-drawing aesthetic. System represents parametric approach to data visualization translating member relationships and geographic data into spatial interactive experience. Globe visualization provides initial visual interest but team recognizes intelligent matching algorithms represent true platform value beyond map display. Custom rendering approach gives platform distinctive visual identity while maintaining performance at scale. Connection axis visualization refined with subtle dividing line and potential arrowheads to make 'strong alignment / broader exploration' spectrum immediately readable at a glance (11:03). Logarithmic-style axis gives more visual space to closer connections. Color system expanded with distinct colors for Seeking and Offering states, and individual colors per domain tag (08:30). Highlight color flagged as slightly too dark for readability requiring palette revision.
Collaborative refinement of all user-facing questions, prompts, labels, and microcopy across profile creation, holon creation, and directory interfaces to ensure language is action-oriented, clear, and aligned with Holomovement brand voice. Key principles include using action-oriented questions for holons: 'What's your holon's project?' instead of 'Describe your holon' and 'What outcome do you hope to achieve?' instead of 'Purpose' (20:01). Simplified explanations for onboarding defining holons as 'group of people with shared project or outcome' rather than full theoretical framework. Profile creation flow needs friendly encouraging language when users skip recommended fields like bio ('you can always come back later') to reduce drop-off while maintaining data quality (12:42, 12:30). Loading screens should include engaging copy like 'making connections' or 'finding your people' to maintain user engagement during processing (15:15). Domain labels, tag categories, and filtering language require collective input to ensure accessibility for newcomers while maintaining conceptual accuracy. Alliance terminology and holon board language need clarity. James started shared Google Doc for collaborative editing of profile questions, domain labels, and tag language (40:24). Document allows async contribution from team members with diverse perspectives including Mariko's community voice, Hera's user journey expertise, Michael Shaun's clarity focus, and James' technical constraints understanding. Copy refinement impacts user experience across entire platform determining whether interfaces feel welcoming and clear or confusing and overwhelming. Ongoing process rather than one-time task as platform evolves and user feedback emerges. Initial focus on core profile and holon creation flows with directory filtering language following. Domain categories refined during meeting: 'Economics and New Systems' → 'Economics and Collaborative Commerce', 'Governance and Social Change' split into 'Collaborative Governance' and separate social change, 'Spiritual Activism and Inner Development' → 'Spirituality and Consciousness', additions include Ethics and Philosophy, Science, Leadership and Facilitation as 12th domain, potential Psychology embedded in community/relationships (43:00). Mariko flagged that unfamiliar terms like 'collaborative commerce' might cause people to skip domains they actually belong in requiring clear inviting onboarding copy and tooltip language (48:22). Short hover descriptions agreed upon (one sentence max) rather than full paragraphs. Testimonials system potentially rebranded as 'Send Some Love' or 'Share the Love' to feel warm and mutual rather than formal (34:54). Holon eligibility pop-up language being drafted by Hera drawing from existing Synergist page content and prior Holon documentation Mariko will share (27:44, 29:52). Michael Shaun will refine community agreement language and add checkbox structure with AI consent language layered in (19:22).
Define data architecture and entity management approach for organizational units within the system establishing framework for how users, individuals, and groups are categorized. Core user model establishes everyone enters system as Individual first ensuring platform's primary impact centers on connecting people rather than organizations. After creating individual profile, users can join or create Holons (project-based groups with specific outcomes and impact goals) and affiliate with Alliances (mission-aligned organizations sharing values with Holomovement but may not have active projects within system). Holons are project-oriented requiring three administrators for security and continuity - if one administrator becomes inactive, two others maintain access to manage Holon profile. Multi-step creation process: one person drafts Holon and identifies two other administrators by email, those two individuals receive confirmation emails, and once they confirm participation (creating individual profiles if needed), Holon profile goes live. Founding three administrators have full editing access with ability to elevate additional members to administrative status later. Alliances represent mission-aligned organizations where users can self-declare affiliation similar to LinkedIn company profiles without formal approval. Team using themselves as first test group creating individual profiles, registering businesses as Alliances, and forming Holons based on actual project work. This validates system architecture with real-world use cases, demonstrates transparency showing how Holomovement operates internally, and dissolves inside-versus-outside dynamic that often exists in community platforms. Sandbox database initially with core team members to test system before expanding to broader team and migrating existing user data. Matching hierarchy established: Individual to Individual (priority 1), Individual to Holon (priority 2), Holon to Individual (priority 3), Holon to Holon (priority 4). Alliance-to-Alliance connections happen primarily through leadership conversations rather than software. Hybrid taxonomy strategy combining fixed high-level categories with AI-generated flexible sub-tags. Seven to nine fixed categories each with icon and visual identity providing newcomers clear 'lay of the land.' AI agent may automatically generate and organize categories based on how people describe their Holons allowing adaptive evolution as community grows. Key matching information includes developmental level, life stage, purpose, needs and offers, domain focus, formalization level, activity level, and geographic location. Critical filtering categories for initial launch: domain/focus (what group works on), what group needs (funding, visibility, structure), what group offers (projects, learning, mentorship, impact, belonging), activity level (active, dormant, occasional), formalization level (informal, loose, institutional). Self-assessment data like Human Design and numerology incorporated into player cards providing deeper understanding beyond skills and experience. Meeting confirmed simplified explanations for onboarding: 'a holon is a group of people with a shared project or outcome' rather than full theoretical framework. Alliance affiliations limited to community-relevant entities. Core intake fields finalized: name, DOB, email, phone/SMS/WhatsApp, location, purpose/mission, gifts and requests, alliance affiliations, short bio (150 words max), photo. Holon creation flow needs action-oriented questions: 'What's your holon's project?' instead of 'Describe your holon' and 'What outcome do you hope to achieve?' instead of 'Purpose' (20:01). Definition of holon should appear at start of creation flow (21:09). Two primary user journeys for holon formation: three members already on platform simply tag accounts together, or one/two members registered with creator entering emails for missing members triggering automated invitation emails with accept/confirm flows and three-week follow-up reminders for non-response (22:08). For people wanting to start project without three members yet, solutions include holon board functioning like job posting board with tag-based browsing (28:16), directory tags like 'looking for members' or 'looking for a holon' for filtered discovery (26:00), or encouraging registration as individuals first to use matching and search for finding collaborators before forming holons organically (25:34). Team cautioned against incomplete holons cluttering platform - better to channel seekers through communication tools or simple board (24:24). San Francisco tech community Webflow example used profile tags for matchmaking with 'Ask to be intro' button triggering automated double-opt-in introduction emails (29:40). Holon admin roles need definition within creation flow with member additions working as invitations rather than automatic adds (32:52). Color-coding refined: teal for holons (brand-aligned), yellow for synergists, alliances introduced later (33:27). Core team seeding platform this week: Monday/Tuesday profile completion, Wednesday holon creation for real groups generating invitation flows, Thursday core call reviewing experience and collecting feedback (43:53). Holon eligibility checklist pop-up being drafted explaining what Holon is and confirming three or more people with active transformative project before surfacing creation flow (27:44). Pop-up may eventually include dropdown of existing Holon examples or carousel of most relevant active Holons surfaced via matching algorithm (31:46).
Intelligent matching feature triggered by 'Match Me' button on member cards or directory view generating dynamic side-by-side comparison between two members. System displays numerical compatibility score (1-100) shown on hover to avoid feeling like rating system, with loading/analysis animation making generation feel intentional and interesting (26:00). Match modal shows meaningful dimensions including complementary skills, needs/offers alignment, shared alliances, overlapping domains of interest, developmental stage, and geographic proximity - surfacing why people matched rather than just that they matched (19:02, 27:24). Implementation uses Claude AI for sophisticated multi-dimensional analysis, with results presented as scannable visual comparison rather than raw data dump. System designed as sticky gamified feature incentivizing profile completion - incomplete profiles result in lower matchability or 'unmatchable' status serving as playful motivator (24:35). Match generation happens on-demand rather than pre-computed to allow real-time incorporation of latest profile updates and assessment completions. Prioritizes actionable information over personality typing: what someone is working on, what help they need, what skills they offer, their experience level, and developmental stage. Avoids problematic mismatches like pairing serial entrepreneurs with college freshmen by incorporating context-aware filtering. Integration with assessment data enables queries across network like 'who should I collaborate with on this project?' Technical architecture combines Supabase for profile data retrieval, Claude API for compatibility analysis, and custom JavaScript for interactive modal interface. Future enhancement could incorporate mutual matching where both parties express interest before facilitating introduction. System represents platform's 'killer app' - intelligent algorithmic connection-making that surfaces possibilities people would never discover through manual browsing alone.
Comprehensive color and visual identity system for platform UI ensuring consistency and immediate readability across member types, states, and categories. Color language assigns distinct colors to: Teal for Holons (brand-aligned), Yellow for Ambassadors/Synergists, Green (refined to sage or lighter tone) for Alliances, separate colors for Seeking versus Offering states, and individual colors per domain tag (08:30-09:03). Current highlight color flagged as too dark for at-a-glance readability requiring revision to more readable palette. System must work across both light and dark modes with dark backgrounds using deep teal rather than pure black, light mode avoiding stark white to maintain Holomovement brand feel while ensuring sufficient contrast (14:35). Colors need to 'pop' more clearly per Mariko's feedback while maintaining sophistication. Visual identity extends beyond color to include: three profile image preview styles (circle, square, doorway/vertical) presented during signup (07:44), vertical doorway-style cards as primary profile presentation format creating inviting entry feeling (37:52), and bento-style layout with rounded corners and subtle background color differentiation between profile sections (14:21). Domain icons require design with visual identity for each of 12 domains. Connection axis visualization needs subtle dividing line possibly with arrowheads to make spectrum immediately readable (11:03). System must scale across hover states, card styles, modals, and full profile pages while maintaining brand coherence. Implementation requires Figma design system documentation, CSS custom properties for theming, and testing across all UI contexts. Deliverable includes style guide documenting color values, usage guidelines, icon library, and component variations.
Lightweight weekly status reporting tool providing at-a-glance visibility into development progress without requiring full project management overhaul. System uses RAG (Red/Amber/Green) table format showing what's in progress, what's blocked, and summary of active bugs (54:50). Simple enough that Emmanuel, Laura, or any stakeholder can check status with minimal effort. Format distinct from existing project map which serves as architecture reference tracking pages, Supabase tables, custom scripts, and copy needs rather than sprint progress. Both tools serve different purposes and both needed. Hera drafting RAG table concept and emailing to full team as reporting template (55:32). Weekly cadence allows team to maintain momentum visibility while avoiding administrative burden. Implementation could be simple shared spreadsheet, Airtable view, or lightweight dashboard. Key is consistency and clarity rather than sophisticated tooling. Addresses need raised by Hera for better visibility into development status between meetings.
00:00:00
Boldly NOW: Hurtling down the hill. Totally back to back to back meetings. It's like, oh my God. I feel.
00:00:07
Hera: Yeah, I actually saw our calendar today. I was like, oh
00:00:12
Mariko Pitts: no, no, it's crazy today. Oh my God. How's it going, James?
00:00:18
James Redenbaugh: Going pretty good. I gotta. My. My wife and I are installing a WI fi timer to shut the WI fi off at 1am so. So I can't work past one anymore. So I'm gonna have to shift my schedule.
00:00:39
Hera: Good job.
00:00:40
Mariko Pitts: Really said you've got a problem.
00:00:43
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, it's.
00:00:44
Boldly NOW: It's when your wife says we need to shut the Internet off.
00:00:49
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:00:52
Boldly NOW: I could see you hot spotting on your phone.
00:00:55
James Redenbaugh: Yeah,
00:00:58
Hera: I was thinking exactly the same.
00:01:01
Mariko Pitts: Oh my God, have failed. We cut off the Internet.
00:01:07
Hera: Oh my God.
00:01:09
Boldly NOW: Willpower and internal capacity to say no will set your foot on the right path versus external control is a loss of freedom. Embrace your freedom and say no when it's one o'.
00:01:21
Mariko Pitts: Clock.
00:01:22
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. Diminishing. Diminishing willpower after midnight is the thing. So you need to introduce some interventions. And I, I've been a more. I mean I'm usually a night owl. I like working late, but I've been. I've shifted to a morning person and I like getting more daylight in. So.
00:01:45
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, that's cool. I think your marriage too. Is it.
00:01:50
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, I think it'll be good. Good for marriage.
00:01:54
Mariko Pitts: Okay. We support you and whatever supports your marriage.
00:01:59
Boldly NOW: Okay.
00:02:00
Hera: Oh my God.
00:02:04
Boldly NOW: And that is unless we've got a deadline.
00:02:07
Mariko Pitts: Right.
00:02:08
Hera: Oh my gosh.
00:02:09
Boldly NOW: All that goes out the window.
00:02:10
Mariko Pitts: Out the window.
00:02:12
Hera: We need to include. We have to. We need to have like a special emergency bottle. Like can we allow James just for today.
00:02:20
Mariko Pitts: We need permission for your
00:02:23
James Redenbaugh: get a
00:02:24
Boldly NOW: direct line so we can text her in case.
00:02:26
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, I'll bring her into the WhatsApp.
00:02:31
Hera: Oh my goodness. But that's gonna be so nice. You're gonna have a really wonderful sleep.
00:02:37
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:02:37
Mariko Pitts: If that's turned off.
00:02:39
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, it'll be good.
00:02:41
Boldly NOW: Second call this week with you and it better be good. We expected to see some
00:02:47
Mariko Pitts: fantastic.
00:02:49
Boldly NOW: That be some payoff to having two multiple.
00:02:55
James Redenbaugh: Wow. A lot of pressure.
00:02:57
Mariko Pitts: That's hilarious. Oh my good.
00:03:01
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, great. I'm excited to review the UI with you guys. I wanted Bunya to be here too, but she is still in Bali, so it's. It's midnight for her and she's much better than me at getting to bed on time. So I'm sure she's sleeping right now. Yeah, I have to sit her up. Reverse WI Fi timer.
00:03:27
Boldly NOW: What's up with that. Taking care of yourself.
00:03:31
James Redenbaugh: No, it's very. It's very good.
00:03:34
Boldly NOW: Yeah, we think it's good too.
00:03:35
James Redenbaugh: I'm just being. Yeah.
00:03:37
Boldly NOW: Okay, then how are we gonna. How would. How are we gonna take notes? I guess there's a bunch of note takers on here. Have you ever.
00:03:42
Mariko Pitts: Yeah.
00:03:43
Boldly NOW: Between the note takers and see if they say the same thing.
00:03:46
James Redenbaugh: We should have them confer. We should have them have their own meeting and compare notes and then create a group. Yeah. But the thing is, I think none of them do video. I think they're all just analyzing the trans.
00:04:03
Boldly NOW: So we should record video as well.
00:04:05
Mariko Pitts: Who's going to record video transcripts?
00:04:08
James Redenbaugh: I can record.
00:04:09
Mariko Pitts: Records the video, right? Yeah.
00:04:10
James Redenbaugh: Oh, yeah.
00:04:11
Hera: It's a video.
00:04:12
Mariko Pitts: Yeah. The fathoms do.
00:04:13
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:04:13
Hera: Yeah.
00:04:14
Mariko Pitts: I always send a whole video copy. Yeah.
00:04:16
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. But I think when it does its analysis, I don't think it's.
00:04:20
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, it's based on the transcript.
00:04:21
Hera: Yeah.
00:04:22
Boldly NOW: It's not. It's actually.
00:04:24
Mariko Pitts: Yeah. But we do have the video recorded if we want a better.
00:04:29
James Redenbaugh: We could sound really friendly, but we're like flipping each other off.
00:04:32
Hera: Would it be nice if AI said.
00:04:34
James Redenbaugh: Oh.
00:04:34
Hera: James smiled at this point and all of a sudden there was this gentle smirk in his face.
00:04:40
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. James didn't say anything, but he sat quietly in the back of the room smiling.
00:04:47
Boldly NOW: That's a manual, actually.
00:04:49
Hera: Yeah.
00:04:50
Boldly NOW: The guy has like 20 expressions a day and he saves them very fastidiously. Sometimes I'm talking to him, I wonder if I just stopped talking, if he would. If his expression would change at all.
00:05:08
James Redenbaugh: So funny. Okay, that's it.
00:05:11
Boldly NOW: Come on, let's go.
00:05:12
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, cool. Should we. Yeah, let's jump into that and then let's. I'm curious to get your guys take on the project management tool as well.
00:05:22
Boldly NOW: Other than the fact that I can't make changes and save it. Save to it. It's just.
00:05:27
James Redenbaugh: You didn't see. I fixed that.
00:05:28
Boldly NOW: Oh, no, I haven't been back. I. You get me in spurts. You don't get me all the time.
00:05:34
James Redenbaugh: I fixed it right away in like 30 seconds.
00:05:36
Boldly NOW: Okay, great.
00:05:37
Mariko Pitts: Oh, gosh. He's already been lost.
00:05:40
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. Shoot. We lost a user.
00:05:42
Mariko Pitts: We lost my. It's. So that's it.
00:05:45
Boldly NOW: You get one go.
00:05:47
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:05:49
Boldly NOW: Button twice.
00:05:50
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. So lots of updates here. I think it's really looking good. Getting some nice refinements. I love the. The deep teal backgrounds coming into here.
00:06:07
Hera: Yeah.
00:06:08
James Redenbaugh: Of course we'll still have the light mode, but I definitely am falling in love with this deep teal.
00:06:15
Boldly NOW: Yeah.
00:06:16
James Redenbaugh: We introduced this vertical access to show proximity. And when you had the idea to also scale the size of the icons, which could be really cool. And you know, if it's like this, we could also fit quite a lot down here if they get really small.
00:06:37
Boldly NOW: Yeah.
00:06:37
James Redenbaugh: And I love the framing that it's like stronger alignment and broader exploration because it's not saying like these are the people that you have to connect to and ignore everybody else. You know, I'm sure anyone could. I would hope that anyone could find connection with anyone on the platform if they're finding themselves there. And then we have a few different card styles. I know we've talked about kind of vertical and horizontal cards in the past, but I'm. And we were kind of leaning towards the horizontal card styles. But the more I see the vertical ones, they feel like. They feel like doorways and I want them to feel inviting into the world of the people. And the ones that have these full images with the text feel really nice. Yeah. We would have to add with the
00:07:41
Mariko Pitts: vertical though, didn't we. Didn't we say yes to the vertical?
00:07:44
Boldly NOW: You talked in the Living Network. Yes, in this space. But maybe there's another orientation.
00:07:49
James Redenbaugh: Okay, great.
00:07:50
Hera: Yeah.
00:07:50
Mariko Pitts: Well, yeah, definitely vertical.
00:07:53
James Redenbaugh: Vertical is great. I love vertical. And when we do the sign up flow, if people upload an image for a whole on or the profile, we could do three different previews where it shows it in a circle, shows it in a. In a square, and shows it in this kind of doorway view to make sure that it works in all use cases.
00:08:19
Boldly NOW: Can we go back to the top of the very first page? Just wanted to. Nope, left a little bit. The one that we just first looked at. Yeah. I just want to say it would be great to have some. I think that the highlight color is a little too dark. I'd love to see a lighter color on that either in the light, maybe even a contrasting color. Something that's a little bit of. You know, we did. I think you had some that were kind of yellow that looked nice, but we could just try. I just think having a highlight color that really helps those things lift off the page would be better than the way it looks good right now. But I don't know if it's is as. As readable as if it's a brighter color.
00:09:03
James Redenbaugh: That's why. Cool. Yeah. On the site I've been using not quite that green. Oh, this green. I've been using the teal for holons, a yellow for ambassadors or synergists. Yeah. And agreeing for.
00:09:27
Hera: That's nice.
00:09:28
James Redenbaugh: Alliances.
00:09:29
Boldly NOW: Yeah. I think it helps. It helps to give like some accent against this actually. What is looking like a really beautiful background. I really want to say my first impression of all this is that solidly. Yes.
00:09:45
James Redenbaugh: Great.
00:09:46
Hera: And I love this. Those added colors so that you just see that pop of life in the page. Because early I was like, okay, this is nice. But I'm like, I was. I. I was missing some of like the. The colors in the other. In their current version. But this one like this good. Like this three feet. The three that you chose for the whole.
00:10:07
Mariko Pitts: I'm not a big fan of the green, but I think we can look at the colors.
00:10:10
Hera: Yeah. Yeah.
00:10:11
Mariko Pitts: But I agree they should pop better
00:10:13
Hera: highlighter or kind of like a sage.
00:10:16
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:10:17
Mariko Pitts: We can move on for now though, but.
00:10:19
Hera: Yeah.
00:10:19
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:10:21
Hera: Not the time for that, huh?
00:10:23
Mariko Pitts: Yeah. We'll go through other colors later.
00:10:26
James Redenbaugh: And I think that we have a. A color for seeking and offering as well. So that when we're using seeking and offering around the site, if people are. Are seeking, they can be looking for offers and vice versa.
00:10:41
Mariko Pitts: I like it.
00:10:43
James Redenbaugh: And tags and domains each have their own colors as well. So.
00:10:49
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, the map keys on that, the suggested connections, they should probably different color. Something to stand out too where it's like strong alignment. So it really guides your eyes to what you're looking at. Something a little bit.
00:11:03
Boldly NOW: It took me a while to see those.
00:11:05
Mariko Pitts: Typically.
00:11:07
Boldly NOW: Typically those are. Yeah. So I just wonder if a subtle little line between the two of them might be a nice design approach to just a. A very, you know, kind of half a point line between them. It shows that some four quadrants things together.
00:11:28
Hera: Yeah.
00:11:29
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. Maybe even a little arrowheads on the line.
00:11:33
Boldly NOW: Could have an arrowhead line. It could not. Could have knobs in the line. I think just something that, that when I see strong alignment, if I have a line that goes across, my brain immediately says, oh, this is a continuum. I don't have to think about it.
00:11:48
James Redenbaugh: Cool. Wonderful. And I think that these lines are actually reversed.
00:12:02
Boldly NOW: I can't see them myself.
00:12:04
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, I can. I can see them. It's just more of a.
00:12:08
Hera: So they come off.
00:12:09
Mariko Pitts: So you understand a grid.
00:12:12
James Redenbaugh: They probably don't come through on zoom well. But it should be more like that because it'll get condensed more to the right.
00:12:22
Mariko Pitts: Okay.
00:12:22
Boldly NOW: That's kind of logarithmic type style.
00:12:24
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:12:25
Boldly NOW: More space for the things that are closer to you. And as I move in that space, if I. If I. You have. You have a Hover state or a clicked on state with Bazenka there?
00:12:37
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:12:38
Boldly NOW: Does that happen if. If anybody. Do they enlarge to become like that when you hover? I would assume. Because you can't have the little tiny ones not be.
00:12:47
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, especially the smaller ones would enlarge and move over to fit this card. And then it has a nice little blur effect behind it as well.
00:12:57
Boldly NOW: Yeah, that's good.
00:12:57
Hera: Sounds good.
00:12:58
Mariko Pitts: That looks good.
00:13:01
James Redenbaugh: And then speaking of this language of the pill style card.
00:13:05
Boldly NOW: Yeah.
00:13:06
James Redenbaugh: I made a simplified version of the member modal where I think I.
00:13:14
Mariko Pitts: Right. I like that.
00:13:17
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. But not quite like this yet. By default, it'll just show these two lines and if there's a notification, it'll have a little dot and then when you hover over it, it will reveal the icon maximizes. Yeah, yeah. To go to messages. And I think that my holons could be in here as well.
00:13:34
Hera: Oh, that's so cool.
00:13:36
James Redenbaugh: I like that. Yeah. And then light mode, dark mode switch. Also.
00:13:42
Mariko Pitts: I love the hole on icon. That's cool.
00:13:45
James Redenbaugh: Isn't that cute? Yeah, it works great with the notification too.
00:13:49
Boldly NOW: What if they all had notifications? Would they fit?
00:13:54
Mariko Pitts: Just be like, you need to click on this thing.
00:13:57
James Redenbaugh: I was thinking. I was thinking it would just be any.
00:14:00
Boldly NOW: Any notification. Okay.
00:14:02
James Redenbaugh: Any hold on notification. We go in there instead.
00:14:04
Boldly NOW: I like. I like that top right. Hold on an awful lot. No, I think you're right.
00:14:08
Mariko Pitts: It should just be one and it just. The number changes. Yeah.
00:14:12
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:14:13
Mariko Pitts: Okay,
00:14:15
James Redenbaugh: cool.
00:14:17
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, great job on that. I love that.
00:14:21
James Redenbaugh: And then Mun's completely redone the profile pages.
00:14:25
Mariko Pitts: I like this.
00:14:27
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. I think these are looking really cool.
00:14:30
Hera: My gosh.
00:14:32
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. Really centers the tagline and frames the profile image really nicely. It feels pretty unique. It's different from a lot of, you know, these kind of pages that we now have everywhere. Um, and then she's done some really nice things with rounded corners that create a very clean bento style, but a little more organic feeling to everything. And some subtle differences in background colors to frame things. We don't have everything mocked up here, all the fields and whatnot. But we are starting to play with what if we had a network connection? And then also how. If people do assessments, how are those going to be displayed? Maybe we have an assessment box. So somebody fills out a badge assessment. Yeah. And those. This could even be a slider. If you have multiple assessments, you could see different. Different domains. And yeah, she's kind of also taken the. Seeking to. To simplify it into single words, which we could have a set of like seeking and offering keywords that could even be auto discovered when people just write about what they're offering and then it's summarized in these key ways which could really help for. I like that matching as well.
00:16:16
Mariko Pitts: I like that a lot. This is sharp. This is sharp actually. Very sharp.
00:16:20
Hera: Yeah, yeah, very clean.
00:16:22
Boldly NOW: Now in the. I think what we've not seen here, and I'm okay with that. I just want to hear what you're thinking. The in. In. I don't know which. When we saw it, we saw the kind of side by side suggestion. Here's somebody you're matched with and this is why you're matched with them. So yeah, the question then is there.
00:16:45
James Redenbaugh: Is that.
00:16:46
Boldly NOW: Is that something we. You are thinking to can keep in there or just go with these very suggestions where we just have people's people on there, but we don't know why they're on there.
00:16:59
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. So I'm thinking the network down here would be people that they direct, they intentionally connected to. And then we could have a feature where it's like show me what. What I have in common with Sarah Marshall. But I think that that should be more of a modal rather than built into the page so that it's not like automatically generated every time somebody goes to a page. Or pre generated for every possible connection just to keep things efficient.
00:17:32
Hera: So what if.
00:17:33
Mariko Pitts: What if we did the matchmaking piece that. That Michael Sean is talking about? Where you're most closely aligned is that just on the directory? And so when you go to your directory, that's where it is rather than on your profile page?
00:17:47
James Redenbaugh: Well, we have the suggested connections field, but I think that's on the directory, right?
00:17:54
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, okay.
00:17:55
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, that's on the directory. I think that we could also have a more intentional matching page. Like a whole other page for matching, depending on what people are seeking. Starting with a questionnaire of like how should we guide your journey? What do you. Why are you trying to be matched? What are you looking for?
00:18:30
Boldly NOW: Well, when, when you go through this, I wonder if it's a natural flow where you could say instead of like you could click away to her. Her page, Zenka's page there. But it could also be a button under her on her photo that says match me. And then it builds that thing with me and her and because one of the things I hate, I don't hate, but one of the things that drives me crazy. I've got all these people in my life that. That want to introduce me to people and me have calls with them. And most of the time I have no idea why.
00:19:01
Mariko Pitts: Yeah.
00:19:02
Boldly NOW: Somebody tries to set up a half an hour, I'm like, I could literally spend 70 hours a week on half an hour calls with people. I have no idea why I'm talking to them. And that's, that's, that's no good. I mean, so it ends up that I have to now go on WhatsApp and have a chat with somebody to try to figure out why this person introduced me. That's if I'm to be matched. I was like, oh, Zenka looks interesting. I want to be able to. I would like. I love that page because it says, this is why you. This is why you were matched with Zena.
00:19:30
Mariko Pitts: Yeah.
00:19:31
Boldly NOW: And then it gives, it gives me a lot more information to decide if I want to move forward than just. I looked at her page and she looks kind of cool.
00:19:38
Mariko Pitts: Yeah.
00:19:39
Hera: You know, since her, since her last call, the thing I keep getting nudged about dating apps. You know, the first thing when we were like talking about all of these things, I, I definitely feel like a really, like, we, we definitely could look at. Use cases for dating app. The apps are very good at like matching people. So right now I, I was actually smiling when I saw like, the, the cards here, like in the, in the screen you're sharing right now. James. Because it normally, like, looks how. How profiles are in dating apps. And I feel like, think about it. Like when I was reflecting on what Michael, Sean is sharing.
00:20:15
James Redenbaugh: One sec, we have a plumbing emergency. You guys can just keep.
00:20:18
Hera: Okay, okay, okay. But anyway. Okay, I'm going to share it with that. Yeah. Like, when I look at Zinkas and like, say, for example, the card here in the screen, I. I couldn't see his name. Like, what's his name? Like the guy in brown. I'm like imagining like, say a percentage like 93 or 73, which means, like, you're 73, a good match to this person. So that's going to like, spark curiosity. And I could imagine if I could say, for example, if I'm hovering over this, like the bubbles, and I could see like, oh, I'm on 93% with Zenka. So I, like, I'm going to get curious and I'm going to visit Zena's profile. Now I'll be in Zena's. Yeah, now I'll be in Zena's profile. You know what I'm thinking about? But earlier when he shared that the page, the, the like, for example, Zena's page or J Or like his page, whichever page. I'm like thinking maybe a good. Because I'm missing some of those pops of colors again. But I don't want, like the color because, like, we want the actual colored labels to be for like the whole lines and alliance. I'm thinking maybe border. But the reason I'm saying that is I'm like thinking if I'm looking at like a person who's a 93 match with me, I want to know which. Which of those categories are a match. So I'm like, imagine maybe those categories could glow. Like, at least like the imagining like the, The. The. The outline of the. Oh, James is back. The outline of that bo. Of that pill could. Could glow to basically, like show alignment. Like areas of alignment.
00:21:56
Boldly NOW: The. The highest area of alignment, obviously.
00:21:58
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, the highest.
00:22:00
Boldly NOW: Yeah. Well, I think what's. I think it's really. It's really. I mean, obviously the way these pictures are arranged in this field is based upon a numerical score. I don't think we need percent, but just a number. So a number of 1 to 100 would be. Would be great to put on the pictures, but maybe only when you hover and then. Yeah, then you have the ability to go to her page or you can go to the match. Match function would be really great because then you could see side by side what are the areas that we match on. Like that, that first thing we did. And then there should be. On that page, there should be a connect button or a message button.
00:22:35
Mariko Pitts: I do. And yeah, I was just thinking about, like, you know, what does it feel like to have a number on you? Because in some dating apps it's just like, you know, it's like, okay, there's a percent that number and I'm not
00:22:45
Hera: sure if we want that.
00:22:46
Mariko Pitts: But then I'm like, it's kind of a thing that people really like. I mean, and it's a talking point, right? If I see that, I'm like 97 matching Michael Sean and be like, yo, I got a 97 on you.
00:22:58
Hera: What's the deal?
00:22:59
Mariko Pitts: We need to talk about.
00:23:02
Boldly NOW: What are you talking about?
00:23:03
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, it's like, what the. Well, that's not working. That's hilarious. Oh, my God. But you know, it's something like that.
00:23:13
Hera: You're like,
00:23:16
Boldly NOW: we have a 97 match or 97. I hate the percent. But it's true. Because it's not. Are you hot or not number.
00:23:23
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, it's not.
00:23:24
Boldly NOW: Yeah, it's a completely arbitrary number that says that we think that there's a match here. For some reason or other, then you get to this. I think they get to the side by side. That side by side should be some kind of view that we could have on many of these interfaces. Just click the match button and it should literally be able to bring that up for anybody. And I agree that it should be made on the fly. There should be little things like analyzing their. Analyzing X, Y and Z's file, analyzing your file, coming up with a score matching. Here's your. Because it'll take a minute. So some way to. So that those things can be built on the fly. Which is interesting, by the way. It means that every time you do it, you could come up with a slightly different matching page just as things change over time. But I think that's. I think that's a highly kind of gamified thing right there.
00:24:12
Mariko Pitts: It is.
00:24:13
Boldly NOW: I think people.
00:24:13
Mariko Pitts: It makes me want to play with it more, actually. I'm like, can we do it now?
00:24:17
Boldly NOW: I want to see how I match up with. Oh, look, there's. There's Mark on my page. I want to see. I want to see what. How we match up. I think it'd be a very.
00:24:27
Hera: And it also incentivizes.
00:24:29
Mariko Pitts: Sticky point. It's a sticky. Yeah.
00:24:31
Hera: And it also incentivizes people to complete their profile to. Because.
00:24:35
Boldly NOW: Oh, yeah, we can't match you. You're unmatchable. You are outside because you didn't finish your profile.
00:24:43
Mariko Pitts: What is going on with you, man? You don't even match with yourself. Come on.
00:24:49
Boldly NOW: We can't even recommend you beat yourself. You shouldn't even take yourself out to breakfast.
00:24:54
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, right. Oh, my God.
00:24:58
Boldly NOW: Okay, well, that's good. This is really. I mean, I know James isn't here to hear the positive feedback, but this. This is what I've been missing is like something that felt branded.
00:25:07
Mariko Pitts: So I feel it. Right. This is good. I like this a lot. Yeah, this is definitely hit home for me.
00:25:13
Hera: Yeah. Yeah, I agree. Mar. I'm not sure if you saw the road the connection recommendation prototype that James created. I just shared it in the chat, so I think that's what's going to complete the. And that's. I'm like imagining.
00:25:28
Boldly NOW: Yeah, no, I want to see some. Some slider bars or. Or stats.
00:25:34
Mariko Pitts: Oh, but this would come. Yeah, this would be the next thing that's designed based off of what he's showing you. But I like that. And that has a number, too. It has a number on it. It's like a 92 on that one that match. It actually has A number on it. Yeah.
00:25:48
Hera: Yeah, yeah.
00:25:49
Boldly NOW: James, you ready for us to catch up? Catch up?
00:25:52
Mariko Pitts: Yeah.
00:25:53
James Redenbaugh: I was listening. I was listening while I was plumbing.
00:25:56
Hera: Okay. Okay.
00:25:57
James Redenbaugh: Okay.
00:25:59
Hera: Already.
00:26:00
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. The. The. The tub, the shower head or the shower handle broke and it wouldn't turn off, so I was taking it apart and I realized I could just turn it off at the source.
00:26:12
Boldly NOW: So there you go.
00:26:14
James Redenbaugh: Got behind it that way to do it.
00:26:16
Boldly NOW: So the user flow is that I have the map there. I mouse around on it, and people's names pop up. And on that. On their names is a button is maybe that. On the. On that either over their picture or on the. Probably over the picture could just be the number that you. Like the 92 you had on the other one. And then. Then a match button. And then our idea was that the match button would open up something like the. The.
00:26:43
Hera: Like this one.
00:26:44
Boldly NOW: Yeah. Except. And think. I think this is too text based. I think shared lineage you need to show. I think you just need to show it. Like, I want to see a slide. Like a little, you know, number bar there.
00:26:57
James Redenbaugh: I don't.
00:26:57
Boldly NOW: I don't need you to tell me that we both attended these things. I don't. I don't need to know that. I just need to know. Oh, we have a shared lineage issue. We have a shared lineage is something we should explore. Complementary skills. We should explore. Just because I don't. I want to know what. What the value of exploring with her, exploring it with Marco would be. And we should. So we should really think about what are those five or six things that we want to know? Obviously, complementariness. Right.
00:27:24
James Redenbaugh: The.
00:27:25
Boldly NOW: The that I have something that you might need and you have something that my might need is probably a big one. Yeah. This one right now says matching needs and offers and complementary skills. Those are kind of the same thing a little bit. Hold on. Overlap. I don't know about that. I mean, if I. If I'm overlapping. Yeah. I don't probably need to be matched with them. I've been in a whole lot already.
00:27:51
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. Maybe alliance overlap.
00:27:54
Hera: Alliance.
00:27:55
James Redenbaugh: When we get into alliances, if we're in a hole on. Together, we probably already know each other.
00:28:01
Mariko Pitts: Yeah,
00:28:03
James Redenbaugh: hopefully.
00:28:04
Boldly NOW: And maybe the same is true about alliances in a way as well. What are the other things we. We want to know?
00:28:11
James Redenbaugh: Well, alliances could be like hollow movement, wave, you know, have we both been. Have we actually been to the wave or, you know, Mariko and I might have Thomas Hu. Bolt as an alliance.
00:28:24
Boldly NOW: I want to know what. I want to know what you're working on what is your area of interest? That's like, how does it overlap?
00:28:31
Hera: I was about to say this.
00:28:33
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:28:33
Boldly NOW: Human education. And you're about planting trees. That's not a high degree of alignment. But if you're not educating people about trees, then maybe there is a high degree alignment. Like there's, that's something. Like, what are we aiming towards? Like, if the, if the flourishing future is a. Is a destination, obviously there's not going to be any one human that's going to produce the flourishing future. They're going to have a part to play. So what's the overlapping of the, of the parts? Player? The purpose. Purpose is a little bit harder too, because sometimes people make purposes that aren't about a thing. It drives me crazy.
00:29:06
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:29:07
Boldly NOW: Love. It's like, oh, that's not a purpose. That's a. That's an aspiration.
00:29:12
James Redenbaugh: I'm here to cohere harmonically with the universe. That's right.
00:29:19
Boldly NOW: Harmonic coherence of the universe.
00:29:23
James Redenbaugh: I was actually thinking that the. On the profile pages, we might want to introduce a new area that could be a little more unique for each person and maybe have a way for them to make some creative decisions about how to present their project or what they're working on, where. Maybe it's text, but maybe it's rich text, not just like a text box and paragraph style. Maybe it's a diagram or maybe it's an image and text. Or maybe it's just an image or maybe it's their art. If they're an artist or something like that, that's letting them amplify their voice more and not literally put them in a box that's the same as everyone else's. So I definitely, you know, that also might be a later thing, but I, I would love to explore that further. To give people an ability to. To kind of make a bigger statement than. Than they can with predefined fields.
00:30:36
Mariko Pitts: Okay.
00:30:41
James Redenbaugh: Does that make sense?
00:30:42
Mariko Pitts: Yeah. But I do think it's probably something that later we bring in. But yeah,
00:30:53
Boldly NOW: it sounds lovely, but maybe too creative for version 1.0.
00:30:57
Hera: Yeah.
00:30:58
Mariko Pitts: But I'm also thinking that makes a good question, like, how is this. I mean, this is really highlighting the individual and that's good. What should we bring out what, what they do a little bit more like in some way, you know, because like LinkedIn is all about what they do has nothing. We don't really care about who the person is. It's like what they do and they do for a living kind of thing. But we kind of need a balance point in some way. Like, what is it that they're. You know, because if we're. If they're saying our purpose is to regenerate, blah, blah, blah, into forests and things like that, it's like, well, what comes forward around that in some way, like. Which is good that it's more about the person. But at the same time, I feel like in some way we need to elevate a little bit more of, like, their project on the page, at least.
00:31:42
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:31:43
Mariko Pitts: Does that make sense?
00:31:45
James Redenbaugh: Well, what if we just. What if we basically made this a rich text field and gave them a little more space to write so they could, you know, add in a list or a headline or, you know, format it in a way that's a little more authentic to them and then have another image field that they could add in here to represent their project or what they're working on. Maybe it's a logo of their company or, you know, whatever they want. They could get creative and that would be super easy.
00:32:24
Mariko Pitts: So it pops a bit, but it's still more about the individual on a deeper dive. But there is something that at least is a little bit elevated for kind of their current project or where they're, you know, because of people's careers are actually integrated into their purpose. I mean, it's just. And you would expect more of that in the whole of them. More people are actually living embodiments of their purpose.
00:32:44
Hera: Right.
00:32:44
Mariko Pitts: And. And so they really want to elevate their company or whatever it is that they're working on. So I think that's important.
00:32:50
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, yeah.
00:32:52
Mariko Pitts: A visual pop rather than just a text box. Yeah, yeah.
00:32:55
Hera: It could also be a slider like that one could also, like, be a. Even that real estate, like virtual real estate could be a slider for images, too, so that they may look like one image, but there's an arrow that takes them to the next image. If they upload it a bit more, we could cap it so that we don't. And it doesn't become expensive for storage.
00:33:19
James Redenbaugh: And we also want to introduce that wall feature down there. People can post to their own wall and maybe even pin things to the top of their wall. So that'll be more space for exploration also. And I like that it'll be collaborative
00:33:43
Hera: as well, and also their social links as well. Maybe you could put that in the lower right section.
00:33:50
Mariko Pitts: Where are we?
00:33:50
Hera: Is it good? Oh, okay, okay, okay, okay.
00:33:54
Mariko Pitts: What if we integrate testimonials? People can write a testimonial and it's at the bottom, it's like quotes of that person.
00:34:01
Hera: Oh, yeah. Oh, my God, this is so friendster.
00:34:04
Mariko Pitts: It's great. You know, it's like, oh, I remember because I can see that people are going to literally share the profile. I already know that there's a button on here and I can share the link. If I'm like a job or I'm looking for something, or if you want to know me, I'm gonna like, here's my bio. I'm just gonna send this over to you. Here's a link.
00:34:21
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. You know, and how much better than. Look at my LinkedIn.
00:34:25
Mariko Pitts: Yeah.
00:34:25
James Redenbaugh: Look at my boring Microsoft Word, like, nerdy thing. Here's, you know, here's this piece of this living network that I'm a part of and the roles that I'm playing with it in it and.
00:34:41
Mariko Pitts: Exactly.
00:34:41
James Redenbaugh: I love the idea of testimonials that could be.
00:34:44
Mariko Pitts: And you can see that changing. Like, maybe it's somewhere at the, you know, at the top or something where it's like, when you click on it, that's a, like how it says, hi, I'm Sarah, blah, blah, blah. But maybe there's another thing that comes through and it's like changing. It just shifts, you know, whatever quotes or little pieces that you want to know about that person. It's immediately firsthand knowledge from someone saying, hey, I vowed to this person. It's like, oh, this is very cool. And then can you see that individual saying, hey, can you write something for me? Because it's partly like they want to have more of that, you know, someone to write a little bit about. So now you're actually sharing each other, you know, sharing love for each other. So it's called like, share the love. You know, something like that we can create something really cool and then it comes on their profile. Yeah.
00:35:30
James Redenbaugh: So long term, we could even give people the ability to decide the order sessions of these pages and like fully customize things, even drag and drop things around. Like, I want to put my testimonials first or maybe I don't have any testimonials yet, so that's not going to be there. And then everybody could be working with the same set of ingredients, but they can decide how they're arranging things on their page, right?
00:36:06
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, let's definitely do that. That's got to be a cool feature. I want to be like, every one of you write a testimony for me now. Give me something good, you guys. So buddy.
00:36:26
Hera: And we can even like make it fun. Like we don't have to call it testimonials. So that's why it looks really like. So it feels formal. Like you could even like make it. Gamify it a bit and like make it a cute button so that anytime they drop a. Drop by and they, they. It's a, It's a previous connection. They could just easily go there and drop. Send some love.
00:36:47
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, maybe, maybe the network. Because I want to avoid a situation where every. Where some people are like trying to collect as many friends as possible and you just have to like click a thing and then. And then new people are like, what is this? So I was thinking about how to limit this and it could be this just shows the people that have given me testimonials or whatever we call it, and the people that I've given testimonials to, or only the people that I've, you know, given a testimonial to and that have given a testimonial to me.
00:37:22
Hera: Or it's kind of like. It reminds me of like Instagram's new feature right now, because you have followers and you have following, but right now in Instagram you have friends and friends means you followed each other.
00:37:34
James Redenbaugh: Oh, I didn't know that.
00:37:35
Hera: Yeah, it's a new feature. You check. Check insta. So there's three levels right now.
00:37:40
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, maybe that's just friends.
00:37:44
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:37:47
Mariko Pitts: So ponies.
00:37:48
Boldly NOW: Can we make a set of notes of that and put that in the next version?
00:37:53
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, that's a lot there. I. I made some notes and it's,
00:37:57
Boldly NOW: it's captured, I think, a very basic wall where people can, you can post or people can post on your wall and you can delete anything off there that you'd want. And that, that's kind of the, the features that would. I think we could maybe get done for the mvp.
00:38:13
James Redenbaugh: Yeah. That's next in the pipeline.
00:38:16
Hera: Is it? How, like, how, how long do you think can be. Pull off something for testing? Even if we haven't bring the, the bring if, Even if we can't bring the UI into life. Just the, the back end. I mean, just the current version
00:38:35
James Redenbaugh: with the wall.
00:38:36
Hera: Yeah, yeah, with this one. Because we already have the profile. I mean, just introducing like the, the sections and the features.
00:38:49
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, I mean, if we like this design, we can, we can implement it, no problem. We don't have assessments yet. We don't have network connections. You guys saw what I did with the, the project management tool, even though it wasn't saving for Michael Sean, and that basically has within it the functionality of the wall that we're talking about. We just want to add like maybe an image share field. But in the same way we can create features in the project management system, we could now enable users to create posts on a wall or whatever we want to call it. I'd love to find a more creative word for wall. I was thinking sphere or something that's more holonic because wall is very.
00:39:42
Mariko Pitts: We need to.
00:39:43
Boldly NOW: We call it the field. That's fine.
00:39:45
James Redenbaugh: Field is good. Yeah, yeah.
00:39:49
Boldly NOW: In your field.
00:39:53
Hera: Because I'm curious.
00:39:54
James Redenbaugh: Like my field.
00:39:55
Mariko Pitts: Yeah.
00:39:56
Hera: Because I'm curious if we could start getting the core team to play with it next week or if that's too early.
00:40:00
Boldly NOW: I, I would really like for anything that, that James say is ready to be play played with that we spend a week with it on ourselves.
00:40:08
Hera: Yeah.
00:40:09
Boldly NOW: And just kind of go over, get, get past the first. Oh my God, this doesn't save kind of bug. Before we get anybody on the team to play, they're going to get terribly excited about it, but I'd rather get them excited about it and not be left with oh, that was kind of great except it didn't work. I want to, I want to move beyond that. Really wanted to be like, oh, this is really great. And that's, that's flat.
00:40:32
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, yeah.
00:40:32
Boldly NOW: Let's, let's, let's think about releases where at least we have seven to ten days amongst ourselves to try to destroy it the best we can and James team has to have time to repair it.
00:40:43
Hera: So yeah, let's reverse engineer it then. When do you think is it? What do you think is a good timeline for, for this, James?
00:40:51
Boldly NOW: I would include the, the, the, the new design style as well in that.
00:40:59
Hera: Yeah. Yeah.
00:41:01
Boldly NOW: Next.
00:41:03
Mariko Pitts: Super cool.
00:41:07
James Redenbaugh: Well, I think seven to 10 days to implement, fully implement the new style and the field feature and maybe some preliminary matching and, and then should test and then we should get more people in there.
00:41:34
Boldly NOW: Fantastic.
00:41:38
Mariko Pitts: Great. This is really great.
00:41:44
James Redenbaugh: Awesome.
00:41:45
Mariko Pitts: Yay.
00:41:47
Hera: And I'm seeing like, I'm seeing a pattern with a, with a notification system too. And the numbers, I mean I'm imagining the numbers for the bubbles could also appear in the upper right section just like how the notifications come out.
00:42:03
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, so and so that would be, I'm thinking like updates to Holons or posts and Holons that you're a part of and then you click it and it goes to my Holons and then the ones with updates would be highlighted.
00:42:21
Mariko Pitts: Mm.
00:42:24
James Redenbaugh: Can we talk about domains real quick?
00:42:26
Boldly NOW: Yeah, sure. They seem, they seem like a lot of Text after them.
00:42:30
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, yeah, I would ignore the text. I. I think if we have a good icon, we don't need text. People can grok it because the names already have.
00:42:40
Boldly NOW: The name is. The name is enough. I don't think we need to define it beyond the name.
00:42:44
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, yeah, it's like, yeah, I got it.
00:42:47
Mariko Pitts: I got it. On the same. If I have to read this, I'm like, do I really know what I'm talking about? It's like, yeah.
00:43:00
James Redenbaugh: So we have community and relationships, culture, art and creative expression, ecology, environment and regeneration, economics and new systems, education and learning, governance and social change, Health, healing and well being, spiritual activism and inner development, technology and innovation. Are these good? Do we want to change any of them? Is anything missing?
00:43:30
Boldly NOW: If we can change economics and new systems to collaborative commerce, that would be really cool.
00:43:41
Mariko Pitts: Well, nobody knows that yet. They're gonna be like, what is that? Economics? Is it. It's gonna be all new systems or. No, they'll get it. They'll get it soon. Soon enough.
00:43:56
Boldly NOW: Well, we have. I actually forgot to send you the paper, Marco, didn't I?
00:44:02
Mariko Pitts: I don't think.
00:44:02
Hera: Yeah, you sent me some stuff, but
00:44:04
Mariko Pitts: I don't think I got the paper.
00:44:05
Boldly NOW: Okay, well, that's the. I didn't send you. I think that's the only thing I really have is the four page.
00:44:10
Mariko Pitts: Well, maybe. Okay. Yeah, send it to me.
00:44:12
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, I'd love to check that out. I'm curious.
00:44:15
Boldly NOW: Yeah.
00:44:17
James Redenbaugh: What about economics systems and collaborative commerce?
00:44:24
Boldly NOW: Economics and collaborative commerce. I guess. I mean, because, I mean, honestly, new systems would also include new political systems. But you have social change. I mean, social change is different than governance. And I actually think we need a. A collaborative governance area that's different than us reinventing politics. So there's a governance model of like. I mean, it's a. It's a government governance model. How do we organize ourselves? That. I think we're mostly interested. I don't think we're really interested in the philosophy of, Of.
00:44:58
James Redenbaugh: Of.
00:45:00
Boldly NOW: Of political systems. Political philosophy. I think we're just really interested in, like, hey, what are ways that you can get together and make decisions? I mean, I'm not. I'm not ready to say that we're ready. We're not.
00:45:11
James Redenbaugh: We're not.
00:45:11
Boldly NOW: We're certainly not ready to develop a collaborative governance model, but somebody's going to come into the field that's. That's really great at that stuff. And we'll make the. We'll make the suggestion. I'm sure, just like the thing we're doing with collaborative commerce, it'll start to come, to come alive. That's a, it's a necessary part. But governance of societal change, I mean, is that social? Yeah, I mean those are by, by putting the end there. Sometimes you, you make the category a little bit too broad.
00:45:46
Mariko Pitts: Why don't we just take out new systems? I mean I like economics and collaborative commerce and then just new systems could actually be in the technology and innovation too in some ways just depends on which systems.
00:45:57
Boldly NOW: Social change almost seem like they're, they're two different things.
00:46:02
Mariko Pitts: Yeah.
00:46:02
Hera: Yeah.
00:46:03
Boldly NOW: So maybe, maybe just maybe just declare a collaborative governance and, and I can write a paragraph about it. If nothing else. It's just how do you, you know, like how do you decide to work together? I think that's the, the thing. And, and then how do you understand the pitfalls of the old models?
00:46:21
Mariko Pitts: Yeah.
00:46:21
Hera: And ethics also is a, is a very important conversation these days, but might be, might be a bit niche for now, but AI ethics specifically.
00:46:32
Boldly NOW: Yeah, well, I mean, but we live in a, an amoral time with few debates about ethics, so we should probably have a space for it. I just don't know that I wouldn't say just AI ethics. I would say ethics.
00:46:46
Hera: Yeah.
00:46:50
Boldly NOW: Good conduct or a good ethics and a good human life or something like that.
00:46:57
Mariko Pitts: What about philosophy? What about what Philosophy?
00:47:03
James Redenbaugh: I think ethics and philosophy. Yeah.
00:47:06
Mariko Pitts: Yeah.
00:47:13
Boldly NOW: So nice.
00:47:15
James Redenbaugh: Now we have 10.
00:47:17
Boldly NOW: That's a good question.
00:47:18
Mariko Pitts: Just question on this. Are these domains that people are choosing
00:47:22
Hera: that they, when they look at it,
00:47:23
Mariko Pitts: is it that they're already involved in or things that they're interested in? That's a different question. So if it's like if I'm already involved in economics, I'm going to choose that, but I might not be involved in collaborative commerce yet because I don't understand it. So it just depends on what is it interest or when I'm creating my profile, this is what I'm interested in or is this what they're actually doing
00:47:43
James Redenbaugh: when they're creating their profile? It's what they're involved in when they're browsing the site. It's what they're interested in. So like, oh, I wonder what's going on in collaborative economics. Collaborative commerce. I'll click on that and I'll see all the people that selected that and then I can start to understand more.
00:48:02
Mariko Pitts: Okay, so initially when I see this,
00:48:05
Boldly NOW: I'm thinking Marco, if you want to put it on your page, I, I, you know, I work in or I'm interested in these areas Because I think it's fine to blend them. You don't have to be an expert in something to put it on your page. It's just your area.
00:48:18
Mariko Pitts: No, it's just more of how people. It's just more for people when they're coming in.
00:48:22
Boldly NOW: Yeah.
00:48:22
Mariko Pitts: What if they know the question how they're choosing to make it easy? You know what I mean? Because that's what it's like. Because if I see collaborative commerce and I don't know if I'm in it because I don't know enough about it, I might question it and I might not choose it even though I am in it. Know what I mean? So it's kind of like, what's the qu. We need to make sure it's very clear when it comes up that this is something that I'm in or already interested in or something like that. You know what I mean?
00:48:43
Boldly NOW: It can be both, I think, just curious about or interested in.
00:48:46
Mariko Pitts: Yeah. So maybe that's something that comes up in the, the, the prompter before they choose, you know, the domain. It's just got to be a descriptor. It says, you know, and.
00:48:55
Hera: Yeah, yeah, it's, it reminds me a lot about. Yeah. In LinkedIn, for example. So you have like the, your actual job, then you have your skills, then your interests and then your causes. So let's just figure out which ones we're going to prioritize because.
00:49:14
Mariko Pitts: Okay.
00:49:14
Hera: Yeah, I just checked my LinkedIn profile again and yeah, they defin. Definitely have different ways of putting people in buckets.
00:49:24
Mariko Pitts: Okay, good. Do we need paragraphs or should we just do a very short, like one sentence, like max that pop up?
00:49:33
Hera: Yeah, very short.
00:49:35
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, I think, yeah. I mean, maybe like this, the sentence shows up on hover or something. But I think the more important.
00:49:43
Mariko Pitts: Yeah, hover.
00:49:44
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:49:45
Hera: But I thought, okay, we could make it shorter still. Like, just focus on like what really is it? Like what's the, like the. Not the non obvious stuff, huh?
00:49:54
James Redenbaugh: Yep.
00:49:55
Mariko Pitts: Non obvious. I like that. Okay, cool. Do we need any more. Are we missing any other domains in here?
00:50:05
James Redenbaugh: I think, I mean, I would kind of like. Better to be 12, but yeah, to complete the grid. To complete the grid. It's just very, very harmonic.
00:50:17
Boldly NOW: Well, I mean something about, about relationships. You've got community, relationship, community.
00:50:25
Mariko Pitts: You know, we could just. Relationship, relationships, culture.
00:50:29
Boldly NOW: I could speak something about psychology.
00:50:33
James Redenbaugh: You know,
00:50:38
Boldly NOW: Relationships in human psychology or just psychology.
00:50:42
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, non human psychology is cool as well. Yeah. What about like facilitation and group work?
00:50:52
Mariko Pitts: Sure.
00:50:54
Boldly NOW: That could be a 12 I like that.
00:50:57
Mariko Pitts: Or just leadership. Super relevant leadership.
00:51:01
James Redenbaugh: Leadership and facilitation. Yeah, yeah, the intersubjectives.
00:51:14
Mariko Pitts: Maybe we should actually put something a little bit more spiritual like metaphysics or something. You know what I mean? That kind of opens up the door for the people who are into like other sciences and the woo
00:51:32
James Redenbaugh: Woo Wu Tang Clan.
00:51:39
Mariko Pitts: That's good. Yeah, something like metaphysics or something like that. We could also put quantum physics. Science. We don't have anything on science. That's good.
00:51:50
James Redenbaugh: Oh, where's science?
00:51:51
Mariko Pitts: Oh, where's the science here?
00:52:06
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, that's. That's important. We have spiritual activism and inner development, which are important, but they're not so bold.
00:52:23
Mariko Pitts: Maybe it's just spirituality.
00:52:26
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, yeah.
00:52:30
Mariko Pitts: Because I would take out the activism part and then the inner development is almost saying the same thing here in spirituality. I don't know if we need inner development. I would just say spirituality or spirituality and consciousness maybe.
00:52:45
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, consciousness.
00:52:47
Boldly NOW: I like that.
00:52:50
Mariko Pitts: Now we're talking. Yeah.
00:52:54
Boldly NOW: Okay, three minutes. What do we got to. What we got to finish up?
00:53:01
James Redenbaugh: I'm curious if you guys have questions, feedback, ideas on the project map that I made.
00:53:10
Mariko Pitts: Oh yeah, I thought it was cool.
00:53:12
Boldly NOW: Yeah, it's working a little bit lot to take in. Was the only thing I had. And because it's Kanban, then I have a hard time actually don't get time management out of it. Just listen a list of things. And so I'm also just a little like, well how does this. Like how does this get delivered and how do I know that. That James hasn't given himself 90 hours of work to do in. In 24 hours of time.
00:53:35
Mariko Pitts: Yeah.
00:53:36
James Redenbaugh: So that's why I probably have. It's. It's not Kanban. It is. It's a map of the whole site primarily. So it's architecture map organized by page. So it's. It's. The primary function of this is actually to keep track of everything that we've done on the pages to make future development easier. So I have the tables that we're using in Supabase and all the custom scripts and the copy needs that we have.
00:54:12
Boldly NOW: Okay, that's great. I. I actually did not read it like that at all. I read it like something like I knew what it was.
00:54:18
James Redenbaugh: Yeah.
00:54:20
Mariko Pitts: And then so you know, James, I picked it up.
00:54:23
James Redenbaugh: Great. Great.
00:54:24
Mariko Pitts: I don't know if I was. But I got it
00:54:29
Hera: for. For me. James, like I mentioned yesterday when we talked, but I'm not. Let me know how. How long it's gonna. It's gonna take to Figure this out would be nice if you have like a very simple reporting tool just so at any given time we know exactly what's happening this week. It doesn't have to be like a full blown like update. Like I. For me, like just a weekly so that we know like this is what we're working on this week. These are like anything that's blocked. And then maybe that the. The. The one below could have like a summary of bugs that we're working on. Just like one light, one line item for them because we already have all of them in the app feedback section. But just like have like a, like a summary kind of. I'm like thinking like a more sophist to do list but like. And also like some dashboards, like a, like a very simple dashboard. Because I'm like thinking, for example, I'm. When I think about this specific page, I mean it could be like another tab in here. I'm thinking about Emmanuel and Laura for example, at any given time when they want to ask like what's happening right now. So where are we right now? And we could just show that specific page.
00:55:32
James Redenbaugh: Yeah, I think I need another.
00:55:33
Hera: I'm gonna send you. I'm gonna send you something.
00:55:36
Mariko Pitts: Think.
00:55:36
Hera: So we could, we could do a. I'm like imagining a rag table where we like show. I'm gonna. It could be like a very simple like rag table, like the showing like each week and then like showing like colors. If it's a red, it's blocked. If it's an orange, it's in progress. If it's a. Yeah, you know, like if it's. It's a. It's red, amber and green. If it's a green, we're on track. So. And we don't need context for that, but just seeing. The goal is to always like see a lot of green screen in the table. So I'm just.
00:56:07
Mariko Pitts: I'm gonna.
00:56:07
Hera: I'm gonna email all. All us four about it.
00:56:11
Mariko Pitts: All right, cool. And handle that together. We've gotta go. We're on another meeting. Oh my God. Yes.
00:56:16
Hera: I'm also there. I'm also gonna be there, contacted. I think Michael's on too.
00:56:20
Mariko Pitts: All right, let's go. All right. We all have to run to another production meeting though. But James, amazing job so far. Let's roll with it. Fantastic. Can't wait to see the designs implement.
00:56:29
Boldly NOW: Keep getting up early and working.
00:56:31
Mariko Pitts: Yeah.
00:56:33
Hera: Make sure you finish before 1aM yeah.
00:56:36
Mariko Pitts: All right. We'll slack and everything.
00:56:40
James Redenbaugh: See you guys.
00:56:41
Mariko Pitts: We'll see you. And Hara I'm going to run to the bathroom. I'll be there in a minute. Can you let them know? Okay.
00:56:46
Hera: Bye.
00:56:47
Mariko Pitts: Call. Is that.
00:56:48
Hera: Is that Laura?
00:56:48
Mariko Pitts: Oh, here.
