Whole Being: Life Alchemy
Being, Belonging, Becoming
Life Alchemy
We are not static beings but braided processes, constantly unraveling and reweaving ourselves into new forms. Each moment is the compost of past experiences, future potentials, and the fertile, fleeting now. We are not islands, but ecosystems, mycorrhizal networks of memory, sensation, and connection. Life itself is full, a richly woven tapestry intertwined with art, the divine, and the ever-present mystery that calls us to explore deeper. Our existence pulses with the rhythms of communities, poetry, music, and nature—each strand adding texture and meaning to our becoming.
The seasons shift within and around us, guiding us through cycles of growth, decay, and renewal. The spiraling rhythm of nature mirrors the ongoing dance of transformation, reminding us that wholeness is not found in static perfection but in the fluidity of change and the joy of belonging. We are never a singular self but a multiplicity, always responding, adapting, and becoming in relationship with the world and the unseen forces that tug at the edges of our awareness. To embrace this is to recognize that we are part of a dynamic, living web, a dance where art, community, spirit, and nature weave us into the fabric of something much larger than ourselves.

Hello and Welcome!
You are a Work in Process
Welcome
However you found your way here, I’m truly glad you did, and it’s wonderful to meet you.
At times, we’ve all wrestled with the gap between the life we are living and the life we yearn for. We call our good fortune luck, our struggles fate, and often feel powerless in between. But what if we could reframe that narrative? What if the answers lie not in resignation, but in curiosity, a way to live deliberately, to align our choices with the wisdom of the universe and the deep truth of who we are?
As Thoreau wrote, “I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately… to suck out all the marrow of life.” Like him, I believe in examining life boldly and joyfully, not as a series of tasks to endure, but as an unfolding conversation with the living world. We are not merely beings in nature; we are nature itself, organisms in relationship with soil, stars, and each other.
My writing, like my life, is organic, growing from my connection to the living world and its cycles.
My work is rooted in this philosophy. It’s not just about fixing what feels broken or reaching for elusive goals; it’s about asking the profound questions, stripping life down to its essence, and uncovering what truly matters. I believe humans are layered and luminous beings, each of us a tapestry of body, mind, spirit, heart, and soul.
My role is to help you see yourself fully, not as a puzzle to solve, but as a story to unfold. However, this is more than coaching, it’s a philosophical exploration. We are fellow travelers navigating between a synthetic society of materialism and the organic world of nature calling us home to our wildness. If you’re ready to walk this path, to live deliberately, and to experience life in its fullness, I am here to guide you.
Welcome to this space, this journey, and this conversation.
