Raven Trammell | Culture Shift (raven50mm)

I used to chase performance. Now I’m building something that outlives it. I’m a Founder of Culture Shift — the first faith-rooted cinematic universe built for the next generation. We believe storytelling is spiritual infrastructure. The Founding 1,000 are forming right now — early builders shaping what this becomes. Don’t just consume culture. Build it.

God keeps bringing me back to one word this week: endurance. The spiritual off-season is a lot like the athletic off-season. Nobody’s watching. The work is grueling. You’re being stretched in ways that don’t feel productive. But it’s the season where you grow the most — if you don’t quit. This week tested that in real time. Next week is the one-year anniversary of losing my Dad. So everything has been heavier. Grief has a way of showing up and making ordinary things feel impossible. And yet — the grant for a project I’ve been working toward was initiated yesterday. TallyMarq upgrade sprint starts this weekend. I’m speaking with the United Church of Christ on Tuesday. I launched the Faith Training Journal this week — a guided space for people who are starting (or restarting) their faith practice. All of it in the same week. Heavy and hopeful at the same time. Endurance isn’t about not feeling it. It’s about continuing to move even when everything is heavier. Faith in God’s promise is what carries me through. That’s the only thing I know for sure right now.

I miss my Dad He recently passed unexpectedly and it’s been hard to navigate. This is my first big loss and it’s like I’m in an alternate reality or something. The weight of the holiday season has been heavy. Each day leading up to thanksgiving has been like a 25lb weight added on to me. Right now, I’m just trying to keep showing up for my family. It’s weird being in a situation that I would talk to my Dad about (taking care of the family if he wasn’t here). The greatest gift he ever gave me was Faith. It really is the only thing keeping me going right now. Are you grieving? What’s been helpful for you in the holiday season? Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾

This week I continued to build the base ecosystem 💪🏽 🧱 - Documented over 6hrs of Base camp & FEST - interviewed @jesse.base.eth about Base Camp - shared a new YouTube video leading up to Base Camp & FEST sharing video content has sparked a lot of curiosity to folks outside of the ecosystem! It’s exciting to get DMs from people wanting to explore more 🙏🏽💙 ps. Shoutout and major love to @trevortraynor for this BTS photo 🤟🏽 so much joy!

Six weeks ago Tally was a Google Doc and a walkie-talkie. I work at a Boys & Girls Club of Greater Holland. Every day I watched staff try to track behavioral incidents in real time — calling out over walkies, scribbling in notebooks, hoping someone remembered to log it later. The system wasn’t working. Information got lost. Kids were noisy. Staff were stressed. So I went home one night and built a prototype. The next day I brought it in and had staff test it. They loved it. We made some tweaks and started using it for real. That was Tally. Two weeks into the pilot across two Boys & Girls Club sites — 146 incidents logged. Staff replaced every system they were using. Here’s what they said without being prompted: “We used to have multiple systems… now it’s just all here.” “Better than saying it over the walkie… kids are nosy.” “It’s kept me accountable to actually log incidents.” The tool does one thing: lets staff log a behavioral incident in under a minute, in real time, visible to everyone on shift. No paper. No walkies. No relying on memory. Two more sites are onboarding this week. I don’t come from a software background. I built this because I saw a problem every single day and couldn’t stop thinking about how to fix it. That’s still the only reason I’m doing this. If you work in youth programming, after-school, or school operations and this sounds familiar — I’d love to hear how your team handles it today.
