# Discover co-creators

> Search Co-Creation for practitioners, venues, makers and communities, view their profiles, and message them directly.

Discover lets you look for co-creators yourself, between monthly matches: _"Search Soul's community to grow your impact."_ It's at [Co-Creation → Discover](https://bringsoul.life/co-creation/discover).

## When to use this

- You need a specific kind of partner now: a venue in your city, a sound healer, a supplement maker.
- You met someone at an event and want to find their profile.
- You want to see who's already in Co-Creation.

## Search

**Step 1: Open Discover**

Go to [Co-Creation → Discover](https://bringsoul.life/co-creation/discover).

**Step 2: Search**

Type in *"Search practitioners, venues, makers, or a place…"*. It searches names, headlines,
About text, what people want to co-create, their location and their practices.

**Step 3: Narrow by type**

Pick a chip: All, Practitioners, Venues & Spaces, Makers & Supplements, Communities or Teams &
Companies. Practice chips (for example Yoga, Breathwork) narrow the results on screen further.

Each card shows the person's main practice, name, headline, city and up to three practices. Click a card for their full profile, or the eye icon for a Quick look.

**Note:** 
Discover shows a short, curated set of people for each search rather than everyone who matches.
Try a more specific search, or a different type or place, to see others.

## Who appears

- Members who've finished their Co-Creation profile and left Visible in Discover on. You never see yourself.
- Practitioners who aren't in Co-Creation yet, such as other Luminaries with a published portal. Messaging them sends an email invitation instead of a chat.

## Read a profile

A full profile shows their picture and cover, location and practices, About, _"What they'd love to co-create"_, their Offerings (with View links), their links, and Visit their portal. If Soul has written ideas about the two of you this round, they show under _"What you could make together"_ to read; they don't use up any of your matches.

If a profile was built by Soul from public information, it shows _"Is this you?"_ with Claim this profile, so the person can take it over.

## Message someone

**Step 1: Click Message**

On their profile or Quick look, click Message (or Message Maya). If you already have a
conversation, it reads Open conversation and takes you there.

**Step 2: Write**

Type in *"Write your message to Maya…"*, up to 2,000 characters.
**Step 3: Send**

Click Send Message. You'll see *"Your message was sent"* and Go to Messages.

| If they're…            | What happens                                                                                                                                                                                                                 |

| In Co-Creation         | _"This starts a private conversation on Soul."_ They see your name and your Co-Creation profile. The conversation is in your [inbox](https://help.bringsoul.life/luminaries/audience/messages).                                                         |
| Not in Co-Creation yet | _"We will email this to them with an invitation to talk on Soul."_ They get _"… would like to connect"_ with your message. When they accept, the conversation opens. Once you've sent one, the button reads Invitation sent. |

The same invitation limits apply as for ideas: one open invitation per person, a yearly cap per person, and invitations expire after 21 days. See [Invite someone to an idea](https://help.bringsoul.life/luminaries/audience/co-creation/invite-someone-to-an-idea).

## Gotchas

- If your own profile isn't finished, Discover shows _"Finish your profile to discover"_ instead of results.
- Hidden from Discover? Others can't find you by searching, but you can still search.
- Your profile's location shows only your city, never your ZIP code.

## Tips

- Search by place for in-person partners: a city name finds venues and practitioners there.
- Read _"What they'd love to co-create"_ before messaging, and refer to it. It's the fastest way to a yes.
