“When we are in service to something that is real, when we speak of it our words have power. Others can feel its reality too. That is why some people have the seemingly magical ability to speak things into existence. When they say such-and-such is going to happen, everyone believes it is going to happen, even if its happening depends on everyone believing it will happen.”

— Charles Eiseinstein, The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know is Possible

What I Believe In:

I believe in a new way of doing business that aligns with a world in harmony, beyond separation, embedded in wholeness and connectedness.
...In a world that centers on our true human value — our deep, bigger purpose — why you're here — and centers on meaning and fulfillment.
... Where money is one of the ingredients... but not the only one.
Business, from this view, serves life — not the other way around.
I envision millions of small, thriving businesses that make a good living and spread joy, integrity, and care.
I envision happy families... happy partners or employees... happy customers and clients... and the positive ripples that will put out into the world.
These businesses affirm our creative nature — our ability to create work we feel proud of... that speaks to the interconnectedness we feel, and moves beyond the us/them divides we are so hungry to leave behind.

You Are Someone Who Believes:

You have a passion to make a decent living doing things that help people and the world.
You believe in increasing harmony, compassion, care, faith, trust, interconnectedness, presence, and joy in the world.
You believe this can be done through a thriving business you love —not by making billions — but by making a healthy living for yourself, your family, and those around you.
You want to spread good ideas, beauty, magic, light, fun, happiness, kindness, and care.

Philosophy

The holistic acupuncturist and the sea turtle rescuer may not be able to explain the feeling, 'We are serving the same thing,' but they are. Both are in service to an emerging Story of the People that is the defining mythology of a new kind of civilization.

That my being partakes of your being and that of all beings. This goes beyond interdependency — our very existence is relational.

That, therefore, what we do to another, we do to ourselves.

That each of us has a unique and necessary gift to give the world.

That the purpose of life is to express our gifts.

That every act is significant and has an effect on the cosmos.

That we are fundamentally unseparate from each other, from all beings, and from the universe.

That every person we encounter and every experience we have mirrors something in ourselves.

That humanity is meant to join fully the tribe of all life on Earth, offering our uniquely human gifts toward the well-being and development of the whole.

That purpose, consciousness, and intelligence are innate properties of matter and the universe.

— Charles Eisenstein

It is my goal to make my work a help for those trying to make that transition — in a very concrete, tangible way, by briding your livelihood with your heart’s desire to fulfill your purpose, to be of service to the greater whole in a way that feels right for you.

Core Business Principles

It's as much about how you do business as it is about what you do. While the "what" is important, so is feeling good, balanced, and happy while doing it.
I believe in life balance and aligning with a deeper purpose.
I believe that when people of goodwill align with their core purpose, they serve a greater good, a greater love, and greater care.
Through their work, they contribute to beauty, and that's a new way of doing business.
A healthy, thriving business creates cultural sustainability and resonance.
Happiness is a resource, and the more we spread it, the more we spread good in the world.
Many of the powerful innovation and success tools used by “big” traditional businesses, can be used by small, thriving cottage industries, to create ample prosperity for owners and families, and good jobs for communities.
A business made with love and intelligence can thrive materially while contributing to a wonderful life for those around it.

What I Do

I help you navigate the journey of creating a business that fulfills you and helps reweave our human fabric, and leads you to a greater sense of wholeness.
I help you do that through an array of tools — including some very practical ones: How to nail down the nuts and bolts of your business model, or what's going to sell, or how you can effectively offer the thing your heart wants to offer while feeling good about it, while feeling happy about it — as well as some more visionary, personal, or intuitive ones.
My goal is to always get us to a place where there's a viable business model. Even in the most harmonious, beautiful, humane world we could imagine, there are still many principles of innovation, communication, and connection that are extremely applicable. My intention is to help you use them to create that.
