One Day on Earth - Motion Picture Trailer on Vimeo: We agree and are doing something different because: "One Community trying to exist apart from all other communities is not in any way acknowledging the entirety of existence and how it depends... everything depends on everything."

About Nanice Ellis
“We are not Coming to Community out of survival, scarcity or fear; we are Coming to Community out of Love, Abundance and a True Picture of what it means to Thrive.”
I’ve spent my entire life learning about community by experiencing its power and the bitter-sweet taste of its loss. For each of my most profound experiences of the love, support and joy that is True Community, I lived an equally powerful experience of separation and emotional isolation. This vacillation between the peak of human experience and its darkest depths has given me a unique appreciation and led me to dedicate my life to understanding, creating, and sharing the gift that is Genuine Community.
I have lived through horrific domestic violence, teenage pregnancy, single parenthood, anorexia and depression; lost, unsupported, and isolated without any sense of community. I have also risen to the greatest heights of self awareness, personal power and the ability to make a profound difference in the world; galvanized and empowered by the unique acceptance, support and love found in Genuine Community.
Through all these experiences and coaching people around the world, it has become clear that all people are looking for “something.” Many try to fill that empty space with money, possessions, work, hobbies or even various partners when the real thing that they are missing is Community. Community provides constant support and fills a unique void in most peoples’ lives by creating deeper connection; to themselves, their environment, and each other. When I look back on my life, it is easy to see that the happiest times of my life were when I was part of a community. I know what it is like to live life on my own and I know what it is like to live life in Community and, I will tell you, there is no comparison.
I have learned that the key factors in Genuine Community are:
- Everyone has a voice.
- Everyone matters.
- All problems have a solution and the solution holds a new paradigm for creating something greater.
- People support each other and work together for the betterment of the whole.
- Creativity is supported and encouraged.
- Everyone is responsible and responsive.
- Differing beliefs, backgrounds and cultures are honored and respected.
- Everyone is supported in being who they really are.
Many might think that all this is impossible but it is all quite easy. People thrive when you See them and allow them to be themselves. They make good decisions and choose love over fear. They find the courage inside themselves to speak from their hearts and listen with love and compassion. They find the strength to go against the norm and create something extraordinary. One Community is for those who believe in themselves, and also believe they can have it all and do what they really love to do.
The Soul demands Community and will not be truly fulfilled without it.
I have been actively dreaming of this Community for more years than I can count and I knew that others, sharing the same dream, would appear in my life, to not only fulfill this dream and create a Community but rather to create a new paradigm for the world – this is One Community.
I met Jae Sabol in 2007 at an NLP Seminar and we became quick friends because we shared similar values and an abundant view of life. At that time, I had no idea that we also shared a dream of Community. But of course we did, and, in fact, on a deep level this is what truly brought us together. I believe that it is our destiny to create One Community and to make this dream a reality. With integrity, passion, and determination we have what it takes and continue to bring together a stronger and stronger team with the qualities and credentials necessary to take One Community from a vision on paper to a full fledge thriving Community that people, from all around the world, come to visit and learn from; making One Community a duplicable model and a new paradigm for Community making.
We are not Coming to Community out of survival, scarcity or fear; we are Coming to Community out of Love, Abundance and a True Picture of what it means to Thrive.
IMAGINE…
… a Real Life Eden where you can just be yourself, create abundantly and live your dreams; and share your life with those who love life as much as you do. Imagine creating and being part of a village where you never have to worry about your children having enough, or how you will pay the mortgage or how you will provide good wholesome food. Imagine waking up in the morning and truly being excited about the day ahead – because you get to create it! Imagine having enough time to play with your kids, relax with your family and have fun with your friends. Imagine having the perfect life! This is the Natural State of Being and this is what One Community provides.
Right now, people all around the world are hearing this Call to Community. If you are reading this now, that likely means you. Is One Community the answer to your dreams? Have you been imagining a new way to live life? Do you believe that you can have it all and do what you really love to do? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, the time is now and One Community Welcomes You!
Come Live, Love & Laugh with Us~
