Embracing the Power of Intention A Bout With Intent About a week ago my entire perspective on life changed when I made a major life decision.

Some part of me knew this was the decision I was going to make, yet I found myself denying the possibility because I was avoiding the potential implications of such a choice. […]
Elemental Awakening This is a piece my partner Jade and I wrote for the opening of our workshop we created last summer for our tour, called Elemental Awakening. I thought I would post it and I hope you enjoy it! Lots of inspiration from Phil Osophical and Terrance McKenna đ Fire. Water. Air. Earth. Throughout the ages, civilizations have recognized and honoured our sacred connection to the elements. It […]
Top Five Community Event Creation Tips I am inspired when I witness the increasing courage among individuals as they take a leap of faith by making themselves vulnerable in an act of devotion to their truest self expression.

Ripples of Effect  “How wonderful that no one need wait a single moment to improve the world.â – Anne Frank A question that I often ask myself is, “how can I make the biggest difference in the world?” The magnitude of change required now to steer humanity back onto the path of natural balance is calling forth each of our individual gifts.

***** The Paradox of Our Age We have bigger houses but smaller families; more conveniences, but less time; We have more degrees, but less sense; more knowledge, but less judgement; more experts, but more problems; more medicines, but less healthiness; We’ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbour. We built more computers to hold more information to […]
Tribal Convergence To my coastal tribe; Thank you. As I write these words – these symbols with multiple meanings – I sit in my heart and breathe into my feeling of connection, with the intention of that feeling resonating within you. I invite you, as you read these words, to also sit in your heart and to feel the space between the letters. It is essential now that we all […]

I am embarking on a committed, deeply personal, and collective journey of transformation, inner discovery, emotional healing, and community building over the final half of this year. I intend on travelling to a rural Shipibo community in Peru to […]
I was hit with another spark of inspiration today that I decided to use in order to plow through my fears of doing this podcast. I apologize for the background wind noise – I will try to be in a quiet place next time but there is no way to plan for sudden inspiration đ This next free flow (no planning) session I recorded on Wednesday, May 23rd is about biking, privacy, […]
After much  internal conflict I finally overcame my excuses and went for my first podcast episode. I have been wanting to create a podcast for a while now and didn’t know where to start so I figured I should just do it and see where it goes. This is a free flow (no planning) session I recorded on Friday, April 27th about life, death, the universe, truth, paradox, community, and everything […]
