I have been reading and re-reading this quote. It speaks to me and sharing in case someone else needs to hear this:

“All too often our so-called strength comes from fear, not love; instead of having a strong back, many of us have a defended front shielding a weak spine. In other words, we walk around brittle and defensive, trying to conceal our lack of confidence. If we strengthen our backs, metaphorically speaking, and develop a spine that’s flexible but sturdy, then we can risk having a front that’s soft and open …. How can we give and accept care with strong-back, soft-front compassion, moving past fear into a place of genuine tenderness? I believe it comes about when we can be truly transparent, seeing the world clearly - and letting the world see into us” Roshi Joan Halifax

🌎✨ We don’t have time to play small. It’s time to step into our full, embodied ecological selves.

I’m excited to share EcoAwaken - a 90 min guided journey of movement, music, and soulful reflection. Together we’ll feel the pulse of the Earth in our bodies. And explore how to root deeply in these changing times.

I’ll be guiding alongside eco-rapper whose music and beats awaken joy, play, and collective power.

This is designed to be a supportive way to close and integrate

A few days

Swimming in the Mad River. Blueberries warm from the sun. Sheep in the lower field. Circles with 13 brave, tender hearted people.

We gathered to explore what it means to facilitate change. To honor difference, listen deeply, and live with purpose.

The land held us - in conversation, in silence, around the fire, and at farm dinners. Glad for the beauty, challenge, and belonging. And to remember what’s possible 🌿

I believe beauty is healing. And being in aesthetically beautiful spaces fosters imagination and an expansive mindset.

This quarter I set one goal: relational wealth. Since October 1st I’ve funneled lots of energy toward relationships. This has looked like park walks, high vibe dinner parties, cooking and cooking and cooking together, coffee shop hangs, expanding capacity for vulnerable and truthful and edgy conversations, honest communication when issues arise, a spontaneous dinner party of 12 in which somehow 2 cups of lentils made into an elaborate soup fed us all. Our Thanksgiving gathering was 10x more aesthetically beautiful, meaningful, and funny than I could have imagined. Our dinner prompt was: What is the emergent vision of our community and Earth that you hold?

Who knows what this last month of the year will bring. Here are a few moments.
