How it all began…

The Power of Connecting with Purpose

The seeds of Tribe to Tribe were sown when our founders, Eva-Maria and Thor, encountered the transformative power of circling, coaching and meditation on their personal journeys to overcome stress, negative belief systems and trauma. They witnessed how profound healing and growth unfolds when people connect with heartfelt intention and purpose.

Deeply moved by their experience, they felt a calling to share these meaningful practices in their community. Their vision? To make the empowerment they offer accessible to everyone, regardless of their location or background.

Transformation happens best when it’s done together – with love, joy, and the heartfelt purpose of creating a better future for all of us. That’s why everything we do is centered around meaningful connections and empowering each other along the way.”

2016: A Life-Changing Encounter

Eva-Maria and Thor had long felt a deep resonance with Indigenous cultures, especially their connection to the Earth. In 2016, a profound encounter with the Hopi Tribe in Arizona became a turning point for Eva-Maria and Thor.

This experience not only opened their hearts and minds even deeper to the ancient wisdom of Indigenous communities but also ignited a genuine desire to support tribal empowerment across the globe.

2024: The Pieces Come Together

After 8 years of lovingly holding their calling in their hearts, 2024 brought a series of powerful synchronicities. During Dr. Joe Dispenza retreats, Eva- Maria and Thor connected with the transformative work of NeuroChangeSolutions (NCS) and the Give to Give Foundation, who were already running workshops with the Lakota Tribe.

At the same time, a friend from the Hopi Reservation called for help and everything fell into place: Tribe to Tribe became the manifested response to this call. Within 8 weeks the first two NCS workshops were held in the Hopi Reservation.

Today Tribe to Tribe is registered in the Pine Ridge Reservation (South Dakota) as an independent nonprofit corporation of the Give to Give Foundation.

“The neuroscience-based workshops in Indigenous communities are just the beginning. Lasting transformation requires ongoing self-work. To address this challenge, Tribe to Tribe provides meaningful connections that empower people to stay aligned with the changes they seek to create.”

Today, we are a dedicated global team of different tribes that is working passionately to combine circling practices with practical neuroscience and ancient tribal wisdom.
