Composting with Keri Jarvis: Powered by The Portal
“We require each other in unexpected collaborations and combinations, in hot compost piles.
We become-with each other or not at all.”
~ Donna J. Haraway
Maybe you are feeling…
Disconnection
The draw of despair
Confusion about how to honour your own daily reality within the context of the crises unfolding around us and through us
Like you’ve learned just enough to make you realise how little you know
Perhaps you are longing for…
People who share your deep concern for the world
Places to practice your wholeness & develop your thinking
Sites of radical imagination without ridicule
Rehearsal spaces for healthy relation
How It Works
〰️
How It Works 〰️
You’re invited to commit to Composting on a quarterly basis so that you have time and space to settle into the culture of the space and deepen into relation with others.
We meet (most) Fridays at 10am London time for 90 minutes. There’s an optional book study group each quarter and each month has its own theme.
I know it already sounds potentially confusing, let me lay it out…
Join Composting (at either price outlined below) and each month you’ll have access to:
The enquiries for the theme
A gathering with guided, conversational reflection on what has been revealed for you (or what you may be struggling to uncover)
2 Conversational Group Coaching Calls deepening into the experience of the theme
A gathering to discuss part of the selected book for the quarter
A composting space on The Portal Collective where we will cultivate connection & share resources
The wider Portal Collective community

Building new worlds through community, collaboration and collective imagination.
The Portal Collective is an online learning platform + marketplace that shares your vision and values for this world.
We would love for you to join us if you are someone who…
Cares deeply about our shared lives now and in the future
Is interested in collaborative conjuring of (pockets of) new worlds
The standard rate is £30/ month and the solidarity rate is £10/ month.
You’re invited to use the solidarity rate if you’re unpaid, lowly paid, in financial difficulty, or otherwise unable to afford the standard price without causing financial distress. Capitalist norms train us to try and extract as much as we can from one another. I want to be fair to you and I trust you to be fair to me and everyone else participating.
