About
the well originated from a journey of learning to transmute pain, burnout and other difficult experiences into positive change. Learn more about our vision and mission, and how we came to do what we do below.
"Even those of us who take for granted a constant supply of water piped into our homes nevertheless understand the value of a good well. It's in our folk memory, an archetypal image in our collective unconscious. A good well will never run dry; you can always depend on it. And water is the source of life. But the source of life, like all things, must be cared for; a good well must be tended."
