“May I tread lightly, live with reverence, and be of service to that which connects life and all existence.”

I see the sacred in the wholeness of life: animal, plant, mineral, space & time. To me, that which connects us all isn’t found in one name or path, but at the shared heart of all traditions. As part of my ministry I strive to listen, learn, speak and act with an open heart, body, and mind.

In my professional life, I am a Montessori Educator, teacher trainer, and business owner. I lead through the ‘Conscious Leadership’ method, seeking to bring awareness and integrity to every interaction. I am currently in a ‘fallow’ year in my ministry: a period of integration and rest, but if my words resonate now and you feel called to connect, I would love to hear from you.

Offerings

• Inclusive Pastoral Care: Listening to and talking about the “BIG” things… especially with those who may be ‘spiritually homeless’, ‘spiritual but not religious’, those who feel excluded from their traditional faith path or those with no faith.

• Ceremony & Ritual: Workshops and ceremonies designed to inspire awe and reconnect us with the cycles of life.

• Pastoral ‘First Aid’: On-site support for festivals, events, and charity challenges.

• Conscious Mentoring: Facilitation and leadership mentoring for individuals and teams.
