The Button Campfires
Weekly online from Tuesday 13 October 2026
First in-person gathering
The Crucible & Meeting Rhythm
The Button Campfires is an ongoing, rhythm-based transformation crucible. It is designed to free up your time, energy, and resources so you can pursue your creative work unhindered.
This is not a facilitated workshop, and it is not a therapy group. It is a space to take off your mask, drop your personal agenda, and reconnect with the essence of who you truly are.
We will gather in two rhythms:
1. The Weekly Online Campfire (90 Minutes) Every week, we connect on Google Meet to relate and burn. In this space there is no one for you to be and nothing for you to do. You can come and simply rest and listen or burn some “firewood”โthe real challenges, friction, or messiness you are currently experiencing in your life and work. We burn or witness others burning to discover and manifest new capacity. [Start date: Tuesday 13th of October, 3-4:30pm]
2. The 6-Week In-House Gathering (3 Hours) Every six weeks, we gather physically at The Button Factory around a shared meal. Here, we will consciously practice reciprocal exchange by bringing our prosperity and abundance to shareโwhether that is a jar of homemade marmalade, some old clothes, or a tray of tomato seedlings โembodying the founding spirit of Tฤmaki Makaurau / Auckland: if we share, all will prosper, and before the potluck we will have a ‘campfire’. [First Gathering date: Tuesday 10th of November, 3-6pm]
The Exchange (Living Currency)
RSVP
This offering is not a funded workshop, and there is no fixed fee. It operates on the physics of Living Currency.
We are actively breaking the habit of being transactional consumers. You are invited to step into reciprocal exchange with the system. When you experience value, your natural response is to reciprocateโdirectly to the space, to the community, or through the sharing table at our gatherings. True systemic wealth comes from what we circulate, not what we hoard.
Are you up for the work?
This is a space for engaged contributors, not ‘tourists’. It will require your time, your transparency, and your willingness to sit in the discomfort of change and the unknown.
If you are ready to collaborate and steward the potential of The Button Factory to be actualised, claim your seat at the fire.
