What is Iterative Autonomy?
Iterative
practices grow & change as they repeat over time.
Autonomy
is freely choosing your own thoughts & actions.
Iterative Autonomy (IA)
is a practice of growing your self-awareness into greater ownership of your thoughts & actions.
Iterative Autonomy is a way to define both the entire human experience AND how to live life to the fullest in just two words.
Without iteration, we are denying the truth of change, the one thing that we can depend on to happen in this world. Without autonomy, we aren't really a world of individuals, we are a finite collection of echo chambers.
IA Practices are uniquely personal, fitting your needs as they grow & change with time.
So YOUR Iterative Autonomy is your own journey of self-discovery and ownership of your thoughts & actions.
TLDR: A Way to Be More You.
The Core Values of Iterative Autonomy
Interested in starting an Iterative Autonomy practice with your family this fall?
The Iterative Autonomy Toolbox
(Coming Soon! Which section would you be most interested to see first? Let me know below.)
Examples of What Autonomy Is & Isn’t
There’s the idea of autonomy & then there’s actually seeing it in action. Here you’ll find a wide variety of examples of what autonomy might look like, signs that it’s lacking & what autonomy supportive environments look like in the real world.
Ongoing Encouragement for Adventurers
Most of life is the “in-between” space before & after our wins & yet most people leave that part out of their success stories. This is why it seems like people who succeed never make mistakes. They do. They just kept going. And you can too.
Flexible Activities for Self-Exploration
What do you like? What are you good at doing? What do you connect with & find meaningful? Connection expeditions are made up of simple missions that explore these questions & more to support each unique iterative autonomy practice.
IterativeAutonomy.com is evolving into a membership website that will offer curated resources, activities & services to support parents & children in building their autonomy as a family team. This page will grow as the supporting content is iteratively designed by the educator behind this site (Hi, I’m Melody!).
You can follow along the evolution on the Iterative Iterative Autonomy page (naturally) and by signing up for email updates.
If you’re reading this, you currently have the opportunity to influence the activities & resources that will be available next by joining Autonomy Adventurers Membership Club.
