What does it mean to truly live?

People make faces when you say you want to live to 120. "Why would you ever want to do that?" Maybe the problem isn't the number. Maybe it's that they've built a life they wouldn't want to extend.

The Parliament of Kooks is a crew that meets the first Saturday of every month to build lives worth stretching. It comes down to two steps. Step One: Don't Die. Protect the vessel. Step Two: Live. Fill your days with meaning and abundance.

Every month each Kook sets goals for both steps and shows up to Parliament to report back. Wins are celebrated. Misses are handled playfully, with accountability and a spin of the Wheel of Shame. Most points at the end of the year takes the Kook Cup.

We're not inventing anything new. Every culture has said it some way: first protect life, then amplify it. We just made it playful, communal and accountable.

Membership is by invitation. Know a Kook? Ask them.
