Please read and subscribe to my BLOG, where I give practical
tips and inspiration for your journey and vision, with my trademark humor
and irreverance.
For a list of
books I regularly recommend to my consulting & coaching
clients, please visit my Powell's bookshelf.
Organizations and leaders I find inspiring and
useful:
Pachamama Alliance: By
partnering with indigenous leaders in the Ecuadorian
rainforest, the Pachamama Alliance works to bring
forth an environmentally sustainable, spiritually fulfilling, socially
just human presence on this planet. Check out their Awakening the Dreamer
Symposiums for true inspiration and
focus.
Living Compassion: Bringing about world peace through personal
transformation. Living Compassion is the nonprofit organization
founded and run by Zen teacher and author Cheri Huber, from whom I've
learned a great deal.
Margaret
Wheatley and the Berkana Institute: Meg
Wheatley masterfully shows us in the Western World how to set aside
our mechanical world-view and see systems and relationships in a fresh,
inspired way.
Global Mindshift:
To make the emergence of global community unstoppable. Check out this
global online community of "regular people" seeking to connect around our
shared web of wisdom and humanity.
Kiva: Loans that change
lives. Experience the power of connection and inspiration by joining
with others to help a business person in the third world grow her/his
enterprise. Read requests for micro-loans from the business owners
themselves.
