Community Updates with Miko-Why & Pi
“Imagine your brand, your products, integrated seamlessly into a world that embodies peace, sustainability, and innovation. A world where your products not only serve a need but also enhance the beauty of life. That’s Solarpunk.
It’s the future, and your brand belongs in it. Because everything looks better when it’s Solarpunk. It’s not just about selling, it’s about joining and creating a movement that is capable of transforming the lives of millions.”
In this episode, we’re diving deep into how to build not just a brand, but a legacy that lives and breathes in a Solarpunk world. Here’s what we’ve cracked so far:
✔ Crowdsourced Feels → Attraction Mechanism
✔ Preselection → Finding the Right People
✔ Mastermind Pods → Organic Growth & Support
✔ AI Pantheon → Scalable Moderation & Guidance
✔ Periodic Checkups → Quality Control
✔ Paid Interventions → Sustainable Conflict Resolution
✔ Audit System → Ensures Integrity & Alignment
We’re here to celebrate the real progress, the real solutions, and the people who are building, not just those who are stuck in trauma. It’s about shifting the narrative—good news deserves just as much attention as the bad.
We highlight voices that have been shut out by mainstream media—not because they’re sensationalized, but because they matter. We tackle problems with actual solutions, not endless debates. And we turn our media and events into experiences, because community is forged in shared moments, not just information.
It’s not just about changing the world—it’s about how we do it, and how we make it stronger, together. Every chapter of this journey is a testament to our power, resilience, and creativity. This is only the beginning, and the world’s watching as it unfolds.
How To Build a Healthy Movement:
Crowdsourced Feels: People comment their own solarpunk moment, and we pick the best ones to bring to life in a short media format (video, image, audio, 3D/VR).
Short cinematic moments – pure emotion, no fluff.
Ambient ASMR-style audio – let people sink into the vibe.
Minimal storytelling – just enough to ignite imagination.
Pinned comment: Create a living, evolving thread that inspires more comments and interaction.
TikTok’s viral loop: With trending sounds, people can create their own feels and tag the original, building an ecosystem around solarpunk vibes.
"I don’t think that's a feel/vibe we want": as a less polarizing rejection to something.
Soothing Solarpunk ASMR narratives: longer stories about life in a future world where everything's in harmony and we live the life we want to have, not the fight we constantly have right now.
Categories of feels by themes: relationships, places, nature, love, freedom, business, art, crafting, etc.
“Everything looks better when it's solarpunk”: pitch for our marketplace product partners.
Personality & Values Check (16Personalities + Custom Questions)
- Gives us a structured baseline on their strengths, weaknesses, and interaction styles.
- We add a values questionnaire to see if their motivations align with our movement.
Deep-Dive Screening Conversation (Recorded & Transcribed)
- This is where we actually get to know them.
- Using the 36 Questions framework but in a natural, flowing way.
- AI-assist can transcribe & summarize insights, but a human touch is key here.
- (Future vision: AI-assisted pre-screening, then final human interview for deep vibes check.)
The Mastermind Pods (Curated 5-7 Person Groups)
- Instead of dropping them into the deep end, we handpick a “starter squad”.
- Each pod is matched based on goals, complementary skills, and life experiences.
- Initial match comes with a short summary (like a highly curated social experience).
- Final decision stays with them—they can swipe right or say no if the match doesn’t feel right.
Ongoing Support & Adaptation
- Monthly or bi-weekly check-ins—not just for productivity, but for life progress & emotional well-being.
- If conflicts arise, we offer mediators, facilitators, or movement-based consultants.
- Tiers for free vs. paid support so that serious members can get premium facilitation without a paywall blocking access to the core experience.
Human-first, AI-supported: The screening & mastermind formation is structured, but the human connections remain real.
Not business, but foundation: This builds trust & deep ties before moving toward any larger business or political initiatives.
Scalability through AI & community: AI helps capture, transcribe, and recommend, while the human network nurtures itself over time.
Prevents Dilution:
- The mastermind pods keep the quality of engagement high, and since they self-regulate, we avoid mass dilution or infiltration.
AI Pantheon as On-Demand Moderators & Facilitators:
- Need guidance? AI is there.
- Need a deeper dive? Buy access or problem-solve within the pod.
- Keeps costs low while scaling effectively.
Periodic Checkups by Community Leaders:
- Ensures groups are actually working, instead of falling apart or turning toxic.
- Detects who is thriving & who needs help before things get bad.
Paid Interventions When Needed:
- Instead of unnecessary hand-holding, people pay only if they need high-level conflict resolution or deep consulting.
- Makes the whole system self-sustaining financially.
E-learning Materials:
These form the curriculum—the solid foundation of knowledge that everyone can learn from at their own pace.
AI Pantheon:
Acting as our round-the-clock experts, these AI tutors provide personalized support, answer questions, and help embed the lessons deeply.
Mastermind Groups:
These small, curated groups foster peer support and collective motivation, turning individual learning into a collaborative journey. They keep everyone accountable and inspired to progress in life—not just in the course.
Periodic Checkups:
Regular evaluations help us see where each person is on their path, addressing obstacles and ensuring everyone continues to grow and overcome challenges.
Cousins Council: The HQ
- Data Collection:
The Council gathers insights, feedback, and performance data from all the mastermind groups. This includes qualitative observations (like how groups are feeling, what's working, and where friction is occurring) and quantitative metrics (progress, engagement levels, and outcomes). - Consensus Building:
Using structured, democratic processes, the Council synthesizes these inputs. They turn group discussions and consensus into actionable rapports—think of it as distilling the collective wisdom into clear, data-driven recommendations. - Decision Making:
Based on these rapports, the Cousins Council decides on the next steps for the movement. This could involve adjusting training modules, shifting focus areas, launching new initiatives, or addressing any systemic issues. Decisions aren’t top-down orders—they’re a reflection of what the community is collectively saying. - Feedback Loop:
The Council’s decisions are then fed back into the system. The AI Pantheon and the mastermind groups get updated guidance, and the whole structure continues to evolve. It’s an ongoing loop—monitor, decide, implement, and re-assess.
Why This Works:
- Democratic & Transparent: Everyone’s voice counts, and data from real experiences guides the strategy.
- Adaptive & Resilient: Instead of being stuck in a rigid hierarchy, the movement stays agile—able to pivot based on what the community needs.
- Unified Vision: This approach ensures that we’re all moving together. When challenges arise, we’re not isolated; we work as a collective to figure out the best path forward.

Celebrate growth, progress, and solutions—because good news should be just as viral as bad news.
Highlight people who BUILD, not just those who suffer—because worth isn’t measured in trauma points.
Give a voice to those shut out by mainstream media—because real stories don’t need to be sensationalized to matter.
Tackle problems with actual solutions, not endless debates—because we play to win, not just to complain.
Make our events and media an experience, not just content—because community is built through shared moments, not just information.
