Who we are

We are a community of change makers working on initiatives, projects and businesses making transformational impact.

We are designed to leverage all forms of capital that have laid dormant in traditional structures, undervalued for decades.

We started in Canada, with 500 women and non-binary people supporting 5 businesses we call Ventures and have grown to a global organization with over 190 selected Ventures and thousands of community members.

We focused on creating a safe space to experiment and bring forth different ways of running a business. We focused on wisdom from the ages, building relationships with Indigenous community members, centering personal transformation practices, and practicing radical generosity with ourselves and others. We know that if we are to create a new world we need to empty our conditioned ways of being, cultivate new mindsets, and get into community so we can witness, offer and receive the abundance of resources all around us. We started with money but knew the magic here was't about money, it was the power of community coming together with a shared purpose and commitment to practice doing things differently, so things can be different.

What we do

Join a Coralus Pod

There's something magical that happens when we come together in small groups over time...

Relationships are forged. Trust is built. We witness each other's gifts. Ideas have room to grow. Resources are made abundant.

Small groups in Coralus are a reflection of our larger community. Like fractals, they are smaller facets of the ways our global community works in relationship together on the issues and topics we care about.

The Venture Experience

At Coralus, we offer you more than guidance—we offer you a mirror to reflect the power already inside you. Your journey will be supported by someone who not only has the strategic insights to help your venture thrive but also understands the importance of personal growth. This is our gift to you for the courageous work you’re doing to make the world a better place.

But the real gift? It’s the community. A rich network of people who’ve walked similar paths, people who will support you, challenge you, and inspire you to keep going. It’s up to you to reach out, ask for what you need, and offer your own wisdom in return.

Like coral adapting to its environment, you’ll find those here who have learned to thrive in these challenging times—and in reciprocity, you’ll do the same for others. Together, we create a ripple of transformation.
