Family Crest Program | Resiliency Coaching

Garden Education | Eco-Art Workshops

For individuals and families who want to craft resilient relationships with earth and each other

There’s never been a more important or urgent time to live a deliberate, revolutionary life.

Living, working & raising a family on your own terms means you have to be willing to turn many old beliefs, challenges and conditioning inside out…

When I found myself suddenly widowed, alone in the woods with my three children to care for, I quickly realized that the only way my deep soul could thrive would be to craft my own, handmade life. Alongside my children, we built our world together, complete with its own values, agreements & creative solutions…

This journey has been long, at times very trying and incredibly healing. It’s a path-less-traveled and well-worth pursuing, in the name of a more liberated, ecocentric & resilient modern lifestyle…

I’m overjoyed to share with you all that I’ve learned over nearly two decades of artisan entrepreneurship, conscious parenting, homesteading and community activism!

The days are long; the years are short…

The time is now to slow down and create

a deliberate life

One of the things I found out early on as a single mother and earth-centric artist was that if I waited until I had everything in place, I’d never enjoy the vision I had for my life, I’d miss my kid's’ childhoods… and I’d be too stressed to relish this incredible, mysterious existence that IS life!

I discovered a self-determination in me to live life on my own terms, and I decided to nurture it. I’ve come to believe we all have this deep reservoir of power within…

You get to decide who you are and defy convention to create a life that feels soulful, rich and nourishing to you.

I knew that I was up against a stark cultural narrative… a single mother of three, no college degree, widowed.

I couldn’t bear to let these three facts limit me or supersede everything else I knew to be true about myself.

Shifts began when I started living in alignment with my dream life as much as I could, making choices from potential instead of limitation.. This kind of mindfulness was not a privilege that came easily, but it’s been essential for cultivating personal liberation amidst so many outer challenges.

Now, my passion is helping you (and your family) do the same. I’m right here with you, still making mistakes, still facing challenges and definitely still healing. So I don’t have all the answers. But I can help you make some powerful decisions.

The power to decide lives within all of us. As soon as you decide to live a deliberate, self-directed life, honoring your needs and values, you will feel things lighten and change, opening up a new world of possibilities…

This goes for families, children and communities as much as for individuals. Explore my Family Crest Workshop, Read My Full Story & Find recent posts & events below.
