FACILITATION, CURRICULUM DESIGN, TRAINING, TALKS & CONSULTANCY
With over 25 years of working with groups, I’m still fascinated by how we come together, learn and unlearn together and how we meet the grit and grace of being human in these times. Weaving the practical, political and personal - an Action Inquiry approach - is central to how I work with any group. Curiosity, embodied presence, ‘nature connection’ and creativity are the ground underneath. I’m interested in how we tap in to collective wisdom, how we welcome wholeness while meeting the messiness of what it is to be human in these times, and what it takes to face in to uncertain futures together.

MENTORING
I love coming alongside people as they navigate life, work and soul in these times of polycrisis and possibility. I work intuitively and responsively with each client and their context. If you want someone to support you and your work, get in touch. I come with 25yrs professional experience in the field of socio-ecological culture change, and a life lived as inquiry into presence, decoloniality and deep ecology.

ARTIST IN RESIDENCE
Artistry runs through all I do. It was my first training and informs how I navigate this world. It turns up in poetry, visuals, invitational and verbatim responsive performance work (especially as an Associate artist with Encounters Arts for x yrs) and in how I ask questions of the world. Much of my facilitation sits in the wild margins between education and participatory arts. I’ve been artist in residence for events such as The Land Conference in Totnes, Generation of The New Economy un/conference at Schumacher College, a Space for Peace (exploring conflict in Palestine & Israel and in ourselves) in Dartington. I host Creative retreats that can be adapted for your needs such as Kissing The Void: Deep Adaptation and The Creative Spirit, Being Nature and also with my explorations of ‘A pedagogy of death, decay and destruction’
