My WHY is You. Me. Our children. Our future. The future of all living beings that call this beautiful broken planet home. Its all the places I have seen, explored, adventured in and the imminent threat that my daughters and children to come may not share this same privilege.
Thirty years of partnering with people through deep transformation, healing, and radical change has taught me that real change is the work of heroes. At our core a superhero lays in wait, whose time has come to be discovered. The most vital task of now is to unleash this superhero for the wellbeing of all. Nothing could be more vital to our wellbeing than powerful action for a thriving planet.
If we wait, it will be too late.
COVID dislodged us from complacency and generated the momentum needed for the most vital work of our time. Laying down vital tracks for others to follow will allow us to breathe more fully, sleep more peacefully, and inhabit our earth in a more harmonious way.
Powerful climate action is the single best insurance policy for our future. Our children and all living beings are counting on us! Can they count on you?

Waking up
A 5-minute wait in a grocery store line woke me up to the looming climate crisis and altered my life trajectory.
It was the summer of 1990. I was a college student living in Brussels. An icy chill coursed through my body as I leafed the pages of the International Herald Tribune. Climate catastrophes and water wars were the forecasted outcome of the slowly emerging phenomena called 'global warming'.
Eco-anxiety became a lived experience and environmental action became my only way out.
As unseasonably warm temperatures climbed around me that summer, burning questions emerged from a deep watery place within.
Who am I?
Why am I here?
What is mine to do in the limited time I have on this planet I call home?
It was this combination of swimming into the source where these words emerged and moving out into action that became my way forward.
If you are visiting my website, I am guessing that your alarm clock has sounded too. While you may feel tempted to go back to sleep, I want nothing more than to help you stay awake and get active while we still have time.

In 2017, after living in California, Colorado and the Pacific Northwest, where wildfires and abnormal weather events were becoming the norm, my husband and I returned with our daughters to our roots in the Midwest to settle on a rural homestead in SE Wisconsin. For us, this return was about rooting, regenerating, and revealing to our girls the laborious and wondrous path our food travels from farm to table.
In 2018, after an unusually wet summer, an unprecedented storm front moved in. 65 tornadoes caused the kind of destruction I never imagined I would see in our neck of the woods. The land here is nurturing us and teaching us new things every day. It inspires me to be a better keeper of the earth and to go all in on climate action. It is my most fervent wish to inspire you to go all in too! |
