About Course
“A piece of wood can stay in the water for a hundred years, but it will never become a crocodile.”
Most Diaspora professionals spend their lives in a state of Identity Tenancy. You have mastered the language, the corporate scripts, and the social etiquette of the West. You have applied the “Paint” of success, the nice car, the titles, and the cordially shared smiles.
But beneath the paint, your “Wood” is rotting. You are absorbing the humidity of loneliness and the salt of exclusion because you are trying to become something you were never meant to be.
The result? A neurological fatigue that physical rest cannot cure. You aren’t just “tired”; you are exhausted from the labor of being a Mime in someone else’s play.
“You are not a worker; you are a materia nobile, a noble material carrying history and competence. Stop asking for permission to swim. A fish doesn’t ask the water for permission; it swims because it is its nature. Sovereignty is remembering your nature.”
