4 Apr 2025 – 10 Nov 2025
The process of developing our capacity to be a mentor for nature connection is a thrilling and soulful adventure that’s full of potential opportunities, challenges and possibilities. This programme will give you the skills and tools to navigate this journey for yourself and bring your leadership potential into focus, supported by experienced professionals, a community of like-minded and inspired peers, and a deep connection with the natural world itself.

This season I am continuing work with a pedagogy of death, decay and destruction, now developing a deck of cards to support facilitators, consultants, educators, creative practitioners and anyone else who is interested to invite these themes into their strategy, design, visioning, or problem solving. Watch this space and if you'd like to be invited to a Zoom test of the cards or to know when they are available to buy, please contact me here.
A Devon Un/Learning Journey finished in December. It was such a rich journey with a great group of 17 participants and an amazing team and group of contributors. We are now looking at an updated design for this year and looking out for funding ot support the course to run. Again, get in touch if you are keen to know about the course and if you have ideas for funding, including you might want to sponsor a place. I'll be writing more about this soon.
Running alongside this, as ever, I am loving my work as a mentor supporting leaders, educators and artists across sectors who are interested in the strategic, systemic and soul work in meeting the challenges of our times. If you'd like to chat about me coming alongside you in your work or in a life transition, or in supporting your practice, get in touch.

A PEDAGOGY OF DEATH, DECAY & DESTRUCTION: SANCTUARY MAKING
A testing of a deck of cards for practical and oracular possibilities… Looking to the teachers of demise and emergence in the more- than-human world can offer something of a homecoming to our wider being. What might we encounter in hanging out in the company of vultures, maggots, forest fires or detritivores? What flirtations or invocations might arise in re/membering kinship with these ones? This work taps into the wisdom of compost, termites and hurricanes, of elephant feet, beavers and fallen trees.
Lessons in Listening – 12 Sep 2024 – 16 Sep 2024

Wildwise: Nature Connection in a Complex World – 18 Jul 2024
If we go back far enough, we all have lineages that root us in healthy relationships within nature, this is our birthright as humans. We are one of the billions of species that make up this extraordinary planet. Over the centuries and across continents, different beliefs, power dynamics, societal structures and modern economics have created great imbalances and harm between humans, and to the ecologies we are part of. As we find and facilitate ways to reconnect with nature, how might we keep an awareness of the bigger picture?
Palestine - Peace, Action and Possibility - A Community Gathering – 2 Jul 2024

poddd: Creative Lab – 28 Mar 2024
Within Modernity, we hide away signs of death, decay and destruction. Within nature, these is constant breakdown in intricate relationships with emergent life, and all the in betweens. Come and explore ideas through creative exercises, collaborative responses and discussion, applying some activities directly to your own context. For change agents, artists, systemic thinkers, facilitators, activists interested in processes and practices of change.
A Council Of All Beings... with a difference – 17 Mar 2024
A Council Of All Beings is a powerful practice developed by Joanna Macy and others to invite the voices of the more-than-human world to speak through us. Rooted in deep ecology, ritual, and collective inquiry, the experience will include time outside, mask making, play and a council ritual.
This Council will focus on listening for insights only from species, elements and patterns in nature that perform the essential tasks of death, decay, collapse, destruction and decomposition.
