✨ What if the past wasn’t just something to study (and be bored by), but something to engage with? ✨ I wish I had learned back in my grade 10 History class that history isn’t just names and dates surrounding "important" (white) people... it's so much more! It’s the stories we inherit, the patterns we repeat, and the moments that shape us. Hannah is the Prismatic who represents History inside my Workshops as Worldbuilding course. Hannah ☝🏽 is always digging deeper, searching for the untold versions, the missing voices, the what-ifs that could have led us somewhere different. Then, she shares what she's learned. She speaks *for* history so history doesn't have to repeat itself. This is part of an ongoing series exploring the 8 Worldbuilding Elements behind the Prismatics. (Scroll back and you'll find one on Religion) You’ll see more on Politics & Power, Society & Culture, Magic & Technology, and beyond in the weeks to come, woven between other topics. For now: What’s a moment from history (personal or global) that you now see differently than you did before? Might be a loaded question given our current context, 😬 but... I'm game if you are.

The words we choose (or never question) determine who gets access, which voices carry weight, and what ideas get taken seriously. If we’re not careful, we end up reinforcing the very things we set out to disrupt. We call for “neutrality” when we mean avoiding discomfort. We praise “resilience” when we mean surviving an unjust system. We demand “merit” when we mean similarity to people currently in power. Language is a tool. A powerful one. But I’m not here to hand you a list of “correct” words to memorize. This glossary is not about moral purity, linguistic gatekeeping, or proving who’s the most enlightened in the room. (You can read the full thing on my site. Message me 'Lexicon' and I will *personally* send you the link.) The Lexicon was made with the help of a few wonderful collaborators. Thank you to: @dr.joey.liu , @createmorepossibilities, @amplify.rj , @clearquartzcreative and @samurray79 for your additions and support. 🙏🏽🫶🏽 I'd love to have even more voices added! I don’t presume to know everything. This is a living, breathing glossary. If you see something missing - if there’s a term you think belongs here, tell me! Reach out. We’ll build this together.

Workshops should feel alive. Slightly messy. A little subversive, and full of magic. This is the kind of workshop we're building. If this is your vibe, let's talk workshops. ✨

Where do you see the line between leadership and hierarchy? Do you ever worry about being seen as an "authority" when all you really want is to share your expertise? This distinction is still fresh for me, and I’d love to hear your thoughts! ✨✨ (Y'all know I love nerding out about words and concepts!) Does this make sense to you? Or do you see it differently? Let’s talk.

What if your workshop wasn’t an "event", but a doorway into the future you actually want to see? ✨ A micro world where people can learn... but also feel, act, and walk away changed. You don’t have to overhaul everything to make that happen. Just focus on one key aspect (maybe how you invite interaction?) and watch the vibe shift. I’ll guide you step-by-step in Workshops as Worldbuilding. 🌍 A course where we build worlds, Element by Element. Click wisely 😉 to continue your journey.

✨ What if even the smallest actions were sacred? ✨ Before we dive in—I know “Religion” is a loaded word. I’m not talking about organized faith, institutions, or conversion. I’m talking about the personal beliefs, rituals, and traditions that shape your work (and how you move through the world). The things you celebrate. The meaning you create. Rafe has spent his life exploring that—how symbols, stories, and shared experiences bring people together... or push them apart. (Sound familiar? 👀 ) This is the beginning of an ongoing series where I'll explore the 8 Worldbuilding Elements behind the Prismatics (like Politics & Power, Society & Culture, and Magic & Technology, etc.). They won’t be back-to-back (squirrel brain!), but they’ll pop up here and there. Keep an eye out for the storybook-esque cover. ✨ For now: What beliefs and rituals do you want to shape your work?
