I'm not trying to scare or depress you. We can still take action to help the climate and the Earth—and I would strongly urge all of us to do so.

The good news: An increasing number of people are concerned about the climate1,2—and plenty of climate solutions already exist3.
Our conundrum: Climate breakdown impacts all of us (albeit in different ways) and shifting our current trajectory requires collective change. So what stops us?

I am so excited to release my new video for Embers of Hope! Watch and "Like" it on YouTube. Share it with a friend. :)
A huge thank you to Berries & Bushcraft for creating this amazing video.
When: June 15, 2022
When we slow down to connect with Mother Earth, the water, soil, plants, and animals, we can learn to live well while taking better care of the communities around us. In this participatory session, we will explore how to apply principles from the natural world to our own lives. With intention and care, we find opportunities to deepen our values, to foster healing, and to nurture well-being through the choices we make every day.
It was so special presenting Embers of Hope at the Women+ Art Festival: Immigrant, Refuge, and Racialized. You can watch the recording here.
Thank you to everyone: the MAC-CAM organizers and volunteers, all the technicians and the Shenkman Arts Centre staff, the live and online audience, and the artists. It was an awesome day.
I'm excited to present Embers of Hope at the Women+ Art Festival: Immigrant, Refuge, and Racialized. Please join us on September 12th in Ottawa and online. The line-up of artists looks amazing.
A heartwarming and inspiring video about firefly gardens (12 min) by my talented friends at Berries and Bushcraft. Our garden and I got to be special guests. :)
Did you know that fireflies indicate the health of the environment and that Embers of Hope partly gets her name from fireflies?
