We are part of Nature

Do you think we can truly be connected to ourselves without being connected with Nature? I don’t! I strongly believe we can’t be truly connected with ourselves, when we were not also connected with Nature.

We need Nature to thrive; both as a species and as individuals. It’s why so many self-care tips include things like going for a walk in a forest 🌲🌳 or along the beach 🏖.

Dormant and waiting to be awakened

Our connection to Nature is still within all of us. Dormant and waiting to be awakened.

For me, that awakening happened among mountains ⛰🌄 and I’ve been guiding people into Nature, re-connecting them with Nature and themselves ever since.

We are part of Nature. If you didn’t realise this already, then what’s happening right now with corona and climate change is driving this message home.

And if that hasn’t convinced you, then maybe this excellent and important movie by David Attenborough will!

As a good friend of mine put it “it’s wonderful, shocking, heart breaking, all at the same time”. But it also has a message of hope.

Too important not to share

I don’t usually recommend movies or documentaries to watch, but this one has a message too important not to share.

ARVE

As always …

Go dare greatly!

Daring Guide & Coach

I guide people who are visionaries, change-makers, rulebreakers and those who feel stuck in the frustrating DO-ing of everyday life and work, into quiet, expansive mountains to help them refocus on what life for them is all about.

As we walk through mountains they reclaim their Identity, regain Clarity and take back their Power so they can re-connect with and live in line with who they truly are; with their essence.

The mountains are a magical place; uniquely suited to help us slow down, be present and get a different perspective on life.

A former project manager & consultant with 20+ years of experience, I am trained as a life coach and mountain hiking guide. I have a special gift for taking people on trails – in mountains and in life – they would never think of walking by themselves. I have a talent for both challenging and helping them reach heights they didn’t think themselves capable of.
