Building for Transparency
We want to build tender.garden as a platform that supports our process of learning in public. Instead of showing just the result, we want to share our journey and the mistakes we make along the way. By focusing on taking responsibility for ourselves, by reflecting in the open, we strive to move away from pointing fingers and rather invite anyone interested to join us at eye level. For this, we try to be more transparent in two ways: - Transparent Updates: Being open to changing our minds and updating our content accordingly - Transparent Credit: Acknowledging and sharing who we learned from How do we deal with the situation when we learn something new, maybe even that we made a mistake? How can we change our content, take responsibility, while also making sure that this learning process isn't erased? As a first step, we added an Update History section that can be opened by clicking/tapping the Last updated date on a page. Here is an example how it looks like on the Countdown Meditation page: For bigger changes, we can also link to blog posts explaining the thoughts behind them. We are very grateful for so many hearts and minds that are offering their perspectives in conversations and resources. To show more transparently who we learned from, we just added an Acknowledgments section that can be opened by clicking/tapping the heart icon next to the other authors of a page. Here is an example:

For over four years, we’ve been collecting thoughts, concepts, links, and personal experiences around the topic of Collective Liberation. Now all of it finally has a home: _tender.garden. This platform is our digital garden — a place to learn in public, to share, to sort our thoughts. Things are allowed to grow, remain unfinished, and change over time. At the moment, tender.garden_ is made up of the following categories: - Blog Posts – Personal reflections and stories - Concepts – Ideas we’re working with - Tools – Exercises and frameworks that help us - Resources – Books, articles, and links that shaped us While blog posts are time-stamped and reflect specific moments, the goal for the other categories is to continuously expand and evolve them. Here’s a screenshot from our concept page of Relationship Anarchy:
