Why not get creative? After registering "Nate's Spice Shack LLC", I began importing and selling hot sauces from all over the world on the University of Michigan campus. I sold out my original order of 500 bottles within 3 days, and became a spicy campus sensation. Only 3 people cried at my table. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570230380510-VMM19NIT47E39T7AMRUG/avid.jpg Projects & Events - Avid for Adventure In 2016, I co-led outdoor expeditions for children aged 6 - 12 in Colorado. Through immersive nature adventures, our team crafted lessons on survival skills, leadership, and mindfulness for the mountain youth! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570230437480-2JWX5MJ97N09PUD862JJ/Potluck+Series.jpg Projects & Events - Potluck Series I transformed a 3-floor housing unit in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood of San Francisco to a 15-person, 2 dog, 1 cat, living community. Our commune was home to a variety of cultural events, the most popular of which was our Potluck Series. Using themes such as "World Heritage" and "Let's Get Saucy", our events drew hundreds of people to celebrate food and music in the neighborhood where the Summer of Love began. During the North Bay Fires in October 2017, I also organized a community-wide BBQ Charity Event, drawing over a hundred people to support victims of the fires through a creative BBQ sauce contest. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570230486575-PFUTDOE69W4RV6SGILPJ/New+Orleans.jpg Projects & Events - New Orleans In collaboration with Youth Rebuilding New Orleans and HandsOn New Orleans, I led 25 teenagers on a community service trip to New Orleans to rebuild homes that were destroyed in Hurricane Katrina. https://www.natemacanian.com/blog daily 0.75 2022-06-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1582141359589-5ASID7FDHCOMQE6PKSUL/Cloud.jpg Blog - The Water Cooler In Heaven https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1582141247071-D0U0XDBDW19IHZR13QMX/Superman.jpeg Blog - 5 reasons why breathing is the focus of meditation https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570420380733-LN7NZIGRN9SEHZGCYYHR/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What to do with Negative Thoughts in Meditation https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570420597169-RE4EL4SL09RX4J28AV3Z/image-asset.jpeg Blog - The Three Factors of Awareness https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570420645233-KN0QBC6LD4SD38B3876E/image-asset.jpeg Blog - How Re-minders Shape Our World https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570418982515-HQ138YU14Q8ISS65NHGK/image-asset.jpeg Blog - A Box Theory on Life https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570419050532-AEBH3OZQUWGKSBKZ1YVP/image-asset.jpeg Blog - 3 All-Natural, Science-Backed Ways to Sleep Better https://www.natemacanian.com/poetry daily 0.75 2020-05-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1582141613986-O72QF91J20V8JG8HQ6PK/earth.jpg Poetry We Are All Travelers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570418306032-1UXSRBEGNHBA68MXITPD/image-asset.jpeg Poetry - With Your Tides I Turn https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570418391232-4SXR01IIUE1L81I2OPEJ/image-asset.jpeg Poetry - Castles Made of Sand https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570418336162-RMRF4IRT4MHMPD0L0DCU/image-asset.jpeg Poetry - A Brilliant Balance https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570418442711-PDI8VK1B8KJ82NOYBOUL/image-asset.jpeg Poetry - The Two Voices https://www.natemacanian.com/travel-writing daily 0.75 2019-10-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570417918641-HVRQ6049SIFIYVE89G1V/image-asset.jpeg Travel Writing - Flowing with Focus #1: Storytelling https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570173161906-MZNXN0AY16UF33BM2E5Q/alexbollinger2%40gmail.com Travel Writing - Flowing With Focus #2: Pineapples https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570418058011-FUSTLCCTZSWHTD3WIV88/image-asset.jpeg Travel Writing - Flowing With Focus #3: It’s getting hot, hot, hot https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1570418154770-EKE11AYF4JNA7OVN8L82/image-asset.jpeg Travel Writing - Flowing With Focus #4: The Edge Effect https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d8d1ff9b86647459c7d0567/1577102583626-X3HB7OKN9PFPAEBCUN01/image-asset.jpeg Travel Writing - Flowing with Focus #5: How do you say “I’m stuffed” in Arabic? https://www.natemacanian.com/get-started daily 0.75 2025-04-23 https://www.natemacanian.com/get-started/p/relationship-with-youothers-5tmk2 monthly 0.5 2024-04-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ced8e1d5fd4c700018dd761/1560190004400-XTA0DF0S9WOZJUG994C8/Stocksy_txp824ffa5crXt000_Original_845035.jpg Get Started - Relationship with You+Others https://www.natemacanian.com/get-started/p/relationship-with-others-3r4jp monthly 0.5 2024-04-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ced8e1d5fd4c700018dd761/1560189982811-KFAJF1TCUH1SXZ827UMC/Stocksy_txp824ffa5crXt000_Large_844923.jpg Get Started - Relationship with Others https://www.natemacanian.com/get-started/p/relationship-with-you-cw3wf monthly 0.5 2024-04-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ced8e1d5fd4c700018dd761/1560189874730-3B0TSLDUHTQ93497V3L8/Stocksy_txp824ffa5crXt000_Large_844934A.jpg Get Started - Relationship with You
