liberated conflict, in service of the great turning
Coaching, consulting & Facilitation for individuals and organizations working towards a future free from oppression and rooted in unconditional love
Hello Friends,
This is an evolving space at the moment. I’m listening deeply, and following the breadcrumbs life has been dropping for me this past year. I sense they’re leading me in a slightly different direction than I’ve been traversing in my work thus far, but I’m not yet clear what the invitation looks like. So how can I communicate to you what it is that I’m able to help you with?
Below are the areas in which I’m currently open to offering support. Ultimately, everything I offer is for the purpose of individual and collective liberation, as described by Erica Sherover- Marcuse:
“Liberation is the undoing of the effects of, and the elimination of the causes of social oppression.”
my Current support offerings
Conflict
I offer conflict support for individuals and groups who are committed to finding solutions that honor everyone’s needs, full humanity and dignity. My work is firmly rooted in a vision of a wold beyond right/wrong thinking - a world that works for all, even those whose actions have created impact or harm - no exceptions. I believe nothing less than this will succeed in transforming the systems of domination and control that are moving us rapidly towards collapse. If you want to experience conflict facilitation that is soft, radically non-judgmental, transparent, highly effective and liberating for everyone involved, I’d love to support you.

Collaboration with Children
If you’re struggling to embody something different than the power-over paradigm most of us were raised with, but you don’t know how to do it without sacrificing your own needs, I’d love to support you. My aim in teaching people how to live in full collaboration with the young people in their lives is to seed a next generation of humans who won’t need to heal from childhood.
Community Systems Creation
I support aligned, purpose-based projects and communities in creating systems that dissolve instead of reproduce patriarchal ways of functioning.

Even groups who are explicitly opposed to systemic oppression, including many spiritual, social justice and new culture creation groups struggle to craft systems, agreements and practices that support the emergence of a world free of violence, domination and oppression.
In an attempt to right the ship, groups often invert existing power structures or leave vacuums of leadership rather than re-imagine what power is and how it could be mobilized for the benefit of everyone. They often use punitive action like shaming, exclusion or cancellation to deal with people whose actions have resulted in impact or harm, rather than lovingly inviting them into greater self- responsibility and care for the whole, which is what creates the possibility of deep learning, rehabilitation, transmutation. If you’re interested in bravely, softly and humbly facing the patriarchal dynamics within your purpose-based human ecosystem, I’d love to help you.
Classes & Miscellaneous offerings
Occasionally I offer classes and other learning opportunities, both in-person and online. Please see my classes page for a current calendar of offerings.
