To stand on the bedrock where the glacier was only a few years ago was sobering and humbling. It was a place I could bring the heaviness of grief in my heart and remember loved ones no longer here, a place to listen to the soul song of the glacier receding. A place of mourning for a world of humanity in turmoil and crisis and place where I could begin to receive the reassurance and perspective of the potent force of nature I was so privileged to bear witness to.

For those who missed the first talk come and hear more about my trip on the 8th November at Port Eynon Village Hall - 7pm tickets £5 book online or call Rik - 07507817875

The most profoundly moving and inspiring conversation between Michal Haley and Charles Eisenstein… the only answer is love. Please take time to listen and share.

A conversation with Michal Halev, whose only son was murdered by Hamas on October 7. She tells the story of how she came to call for an end to vengeance.

In the midst of so much global crisis I want to take a moment to share a piece of music I have had the privilege of playing on in support, love and care for friends and community impacted by the devastating fires that wiped out the heart of the Kingdom of Hawaii in Lahaina. As the world's eyes turn to the next crisis I want you to know Lahaina and Maui you are not forgotten. The depth of your loss runs so deep I honour and stand with you. It is time to stand together and do all we can to support each other in these times.
Thank you Martin Riley for your beautiful composition and for diving deep into how we can respond from our hearts through music.

I am so honoured to share the latest Sori episode. It's not very often that I am totally speechless - listen to the end to see why.

Welcome to Episode 8 of the Sori Podcast. I am honored to introduce my guest on the podcast, Pulxaneeks, who is from the Eagle Clan of the Xanuksiala First Nation. She is the Founder / Facilitator / Visionary & Consultant of “Heart to Heart - Indigenous Relationship Consultation” where she calls upon her lived Indigenous experience to not only offer insight and understanding but also to enable us to discover what it means to come back into right relationship with our Indigenous Hosts & our own Ancestry.
Pulxaneeks inspires the connection to our deep ancestral heritage and the heartbeat of Mother Earth to enable us to hear the complexity of the indigenous story between us. How can we recognize the impact of colonialisation and collective injury and have the courage to stay with the discomfort so we can begin to build cultural safety and trust? What are the many faces of apology that are needed to be considered and how can we can take responsibility and action in this long road towards forgiveness?
