The Space Between Us

Why this phenomenon can’t be claimed by any method, model, or tradition


by Anne Sweet





It’s been less than a month since Peter Mitchell and I joined Jeff Carreira for the online launch of Peter’s book The Space Between Us. That conversation opened doors we didn’t expect.


What we spoke about — the three years of steady, field-based group work we’ve been in that the book emerged from — clearly landed with people. And from that moment, the pace of this whole thing has taken off in a way neither of us saw coming.

In the past three-and-a-half weeks:

• Interest has come in from all directions.
• Our first Between-Us Groups filled almost immediately — three groups will be running across different time zones from January onward, with more planned for later in the year.
• More invitations, interviews, and possibilities have spontaneously appeared.
• And behind the scenes, Peter and I have been building a broader and deeper foundation for the work, and it’s happening at a pace that feels both natural and slightly surreal.

What’s been striking is how unmistakably the field itself is driving this.
