Creating Autonomous Support Systems with Tony Geren
This episode is all about conscious community building! We sit down with Tony Geren of Y-Not, an uplifting jam hybrid band out of Grand Rapids Michigan to talk about his efforts in creating the G.R.A.S.S network (Grand Rapids Autonomous Support System). We dive deep into the importance of creating networks geared towards building community resiliency, mutual empowerment, and skill shares. We cover his journey of beginning such a community, the structure of operation, the importance of decentralization, and how to start your own wherever you may find yourself.
You can follow Tony's musical work by giving Y-Not a listen over on Spotify and youtube, they just released a new acoustic EP that is absolutely phenomenal!
