What people say:

"I'm deeply grateful for this time and the community that gathered. Brandon beautifully deepened our connection to what truly matters-what this country means to us and what we continue to fight for it to become. His presence reminded us how powerful it is to come together in purpose."
- Sara Ellis Conant, CEO of a)plan Coaching

"The Bison Medicine Experience is powerful! It will open your heart, clarify your values, and stir you to meaningful action to reclaim the true vision of America."
-Tim Ash, Author, Primal Brain

"As a fellow caring citizen who has also worked in shared stewardship of bison with Tribes, I found Brandon’s Bison Medicine Experience to be deeply resonant - professionally, culturally, and personally.

He reminded us that bison don’t run from storms; they face them head on. That image stayed with me. In this moment of reckoning, change, and possibility... we need to be more like bison: grounded, resilient, and aligned in purpose.

Brandon weaves hard truths, historical depth, and genuine hope into a message that felt like medicine. It wasn’t just a talk - it was a call to integrity, interdependence, and action."
– Kass Bissmeyer, Mariposa, CA

"The Bison Medicine Experience planted a seed that I hope goes viral: a brand new way to think about how we call can contribute to healing America by learning from bison instead of eagles. I feel hopeful."
- Rex Downing, Retired, Navy Veteran
​

"Many of us can't figure out how to help our struggling nation through the perilous phase it's in. We might cast a vote, say a prayer or attend a protest. But we mostly feel helpless as citizen infighting becomes increasingly vicious and our sleep increasingly fitful. Thankfully, Brandon Peele's historical and sociological insights pulls us out of our torpor. He skillfully guides us toward a concrete path to becoming a truly healthy nation. You won't want to miss this modern American sage. Regardless of your political view, Peele's reflections will transform you."
- Bea Boccalandro, Author of "Do Good at Work"

"I have a new pride in my community, capable of sincerely thinking and working for freedom and equality for all. How very U.S. of us indeed. 🌈🦬🌏"
​- Chris Seldon, Artist

"It was wonderful to connect with others in our community. We have many shared values and beliefs - much more aligned than not. Thanks again!"
- Carol Henry, Senior Director, Slalom Consulting

"
Attending Brandon Peele’s Bison Medicine Experience was a deeply enriching and communal journey—he skillfully guided us to explore the foundational principles of the United States and how they resonate in our modern lives and communities. I found myself expanding my thinking through engaging exercises grounded in the book’s themes, all within a safe, judgement-free environment where we openly shared our insights. It was powerful to reflect on where I stand while gaining fresh perspectives from others’ experiences, which deepened both my connection to the material and my awareness of my own purpose. This shared exploration felt both meaningful and grounding—exactly the kind of intentional community experience Brandon’s work inspires.”
- Craig Wheeler, UX Designer, Tandem

The Symbol
The Bison Medicine symbol contains three red stripes and three white stars that represent the three levels of a democracy (idea, political economy, and spiritual practice) that are required for democracy to be realized.

Idea: Above all else, we believe and ensure that all are created equal.
Political economy: We secure life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for all.
Spiritual practice: We love each other as much as ourselves -  E Pluribus Unum.

The perimeter circle evokes the wholeness, flourishing, connection, and homecoming that we will all experience when we activate our purpose in true community and allow Bison Medicine to heal, guide, and enliven us.
