A Message from Nanci Luna Jiménez
How can we change systems?
What if we recognized that each of us make up these systems? What if the question became: What actions do we need to take to change ourselves?
Transformative system change necessitates a change in our hearts, a recommitment to each other’s well-being, and an acknowledgement that we are part of a larger whole. Without fostering genuine connections that matter, and the accountability they engender, we risk superficial shifts in power that can easily be undone, replaced, undermined, or coopted.
Staying in relationship means tying ourselves to others. Being and staying close risks hurting and being hurt. In our pain, hurt, confusion, betrayal, there is a temptation to “go it alone.”
What has been tempting you to retreat into isolation? What feels seductive about not staying in relationship? What’s it like to truly embrace the transformational power of closeness?
Join me on this journey as we explore the profound impact of relationships in driving systems change, ensuring well-being, and realizing social justice.
The system is not separate from us; it is us.

MORE ABOUT NANCI
Mabrika!
I'm Nanci. When I was 26 years old I founded the Luna Jiménez Institute for Social Transformation. For the past 30 years, I have committed to my own healing so I can be an authentic companion and guide for individuals and groups to move out of shame and guilt and into connection on a shared journey to end oppression.
I listen. I see you. I’m here to remind you even when you can’t remember: you are good. I am not confused by how your hurts show up. While only you can do your healing, I’m committed to stay with you in the journey. When we break the isolation, we can more fully live into our purpose. When we heal, we can finally end oppression.

Our intention is for the group as a whole and each of you individually to be thought about well and feel held to do the important healing work we will embark on together.
