Antidotes for the Times

These are some of the ways I meet the moment in the spaces I facilitate:

• Radical presence and noticing

• Co-regulating with the room and working with its energy

• Humour and mischievousness

Root System

Some of the experiences, lineages, and practices that shape how I move through the world:

• Formal education in philosophy and religious studies—paired with the capacity to listen beneath the surface

• A beautiful garden of mentors and teachers who nourish and inspire my approach

• Belief that body and land are powerful teachers—sustained through yoga, dance, singing, trekking, growing, weightlifting, and sometimes martial arts like Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Capoeira

• Ten years working frontline with communities considered marginalized—learning care, creativity, and relational accountability

• A deepening practice of deathcare, rooted in the lessons of composting, hospicing, and the birth/life/death/rebirth cycle as a leadership path
