Currently I’m raveling solo around the world - seeking out the Earth’s most sacred places and reporting back for the Nurture blog and Nurture Pod.
How in the hell did I wind up doing that?!
Well- it’s been a journey. Let me take you back to around the turn of the century..
25 years ago I moved to a small village on Oregon coast and built an off grid homestead and organic vegetable garden.
Slowly over the next decade I grew that patch of kale into a community vegetable farm called R-evolution Gardens, which ended up feeding hundreds of families and training many young farmers.
In 2014 I not only got married to a beautiful man but we got the opportunity to create a farm based wellness center on a historic property across the street from the homestead.
With the support of community financing we were able to invest a massive amount love and energy to create a beautiful retreat center: North Fork 53 Communitea Wellness.
For over ten years North Fork 53 was a sacred community space for lodging, healing, relaxation, tea, food, art, music and celebrations.
Our mission for North Fork 53 was to be a space for what my friend Iris coined “Nurture Culture”- a way of being that values beauty, community, creativity and sustainability.
The dream was interrupted in 2020 by the global Covid pandemic and then even more so in 2023 by a sudden divorce that completely rocked my world.
During the total solar eclipse in the spring of 2024 - I heard the first whisper of an new life vision on the wind.
After a year of deep soul searching and cleaning out my 6,000 sq ft barn, I decided to sell North Fork 53 and start a completely new chapter!
In the summer of 2025 went from 4 acres, five bedrooms, three cats, a dog and several cars to a carry on backpack .
I set off on the full moon in August to visit some of the Earth’s most sacred sites- starting in Peru.
This website is where I report on my personal journey and pilgrimage as well as my ongoing fascination with the emerging culture of peacemakers and healers happening all around the world.
To learn more about my current location check out the Nurture Pod and the Nurture Blog- conversations and writings updated around the full and new moons.
If you’re interested in getting support for changes in your own life and business I offer personal Nurture Coaching. This is the most direct way I can help others step into their dreams and I love to do it.
