A while back I enjoyed a weekend program through nonprofit alternative business school called Groundswell in Vancouver. It focused on our relationship to money, skills and serving specific communities, and a bit of decolonization thinking.
The program challenged us to define "wealth" in a broader context; to be more diverse than simply money. As a group, we identified 8 types of capital, and financial (or "money") was just 1 of those:
- Social Capital
- Cultural Capital
- Spiritual Capital
- Experiential Capital
- Intellectual Capital
- Financial Capital
- Material Capital
- Natural Capital
There were some graphics in the program (which I don't have access to), but I ended up creating a little one of my own as a reminder - and thought it would be fun to share here.

Do you feel guilty? Do you feel proud? Do you feel optimistic / excited?
Do you feel wealthy?
What's one positive way you will change how you speak in the future?
