I know many folks who think they can't be organizers, or activists, or actively make change about things they deeply care about, such as climate change.
What if making an impact were as simple as just a brief conversation with a few people who are close to you? And then they each talk to a few people, for example about changes they've made to reduce their carbon footprint.
There's a fancy term for it, which is "relational organizing," but you don't have to tell your friends and family that part.
Read this article from Yale Climate Connections for ideas about getting those conversations going.

By talking with your friends and family about climate solutions, you can exponentially grow your impact.

Coming up this Saturday, May 4th: An offering for Bay Area healing/wellness professionals.

I will be offering a Climate Cafe in person at the East Bay Therapist Community in Lafayette, CA.

Feelings about the climate crisis are hard to hold alone and are often not welcome in everyday social settings.

Climate Cafes offer a structured space for informal, open, respectful discussion of emotional responses and reactions related to the climate. As we know, expression of emotions in a holding environment supports greater ease and a reduced stress response.

For this gathering, in order to create a comfortable space for sharing, I am inviting therapists and other healing professionals only to participate. If you are in the Bay Area, and have wished for support in holding the complex set of emotions regarding the planetary emergency, this group is for you. Although I plan to offer more Climate Cafes in the future, each meeting is only a one-time commitment.

A facilitated space for discussing climate-related emotions

23/02/2024

I am hosting a virtual Climate Café on Saturday, March 2, at 9:00 am PST. This is an offering I hope to make more regularly, and possibly in person, in the future.
What is a Climate Café? It is a safe, structured, facilitated group space for sharing and reflecting about emotions related to climate change, that may feel unwelcome or difficult to share in many social situations, or with friends and family.
The Café will be 90 minutes long. There are more details at the registration link. Registration is free and limited to the first eight people. I will maintain a waiting list of eight more people in case there are cancellations.

I hope you will join me!

When: Mar 2, 2024 09:00 AM Pacific Time (US and Canada)

Register in advance for this meeting:

I'm very pleased to have completed the requirements for the Organic Intelligence® Coach Certification Program. OI™ Coaching is a "deeply attuned conversational interaction that works directly with the growth trends of a client’s neurobiology." I love working with people in this way because it focuses on the path of ease and enjoyment for the client, and can't we all use a lot more of that these days? Contact me to learn more.
