Welcome

I report on the healing power of contemplative reading & writing.

Through my writing, speaking, and collaborations in organizational development with a variety of leaders, I explore practical, effective guidance for individuals and communities in search of the meaning-making that fosters personal and cultural transformation.

Create

In my free ebook, Songs of Earth and Sky: a 3-day writing retreat, I share integrative practices to nurture creativity and transformation.

Connect

To honor the transformational power of poetry, and to elevate the important work poets do, I founded Lyricality. With many collaborators, I help Minnesota poets & writers, artists, and organizations connect across diverse demographics to foster radical empathy.

Transform

I publish a free quarterly newsletter, A Storied Life where I share resources for a creative, transformational way of life, with practices that foster self-compassion, connection, and healing.
