My connection to nature has been with me all my life. I walk into a jarrah forest and I am mesmerised by the unique Australian bush scents, the taste of eucalyptus dew, the vision and sound of the most beautiful birds and animals, in awe and wonder of the pure joy and magic in the nature that surrounds me.
The first part of my life was spent growing up on my parents farm in South Western Australia, followed by a 10 year journey through Northern Australia, with the next 10 years living in Perth Western Australia, a City environment.
My life’s work has been varied over the past three decades, from being involved in the Rural sector, Tourism industry, high end fashion design and retail, Broome pearls and Argyle diamonds and most recently moving into the area of Carbon Reduction and Offsetting with a real sense of purpose where I can be proactive in creating change for a healthy vibrant planet for our future generations.
The environment I have now chosen to live in and the space in my life I have found, has inspired me to share with the world my life’s purpose - ‘to re-connect people to their feelings through nature’ and in doing so develop a higher awareness of how precious and beautiful this planet is.
I understand that in every choice we make, there is a far reaching consequence. In sharing with others an awareness and understanding of the footprint we create, the principles of ‘connect, feel, choose’, is a way new of living that will contribute to the enriching of people’s lives and the planet.
Personally, I am working my way back, one choice at a time to the simplicity and magic of my childhood and becoming more and more connected and aware of my feelings at every moment and how they guide my next step. I am building wonderment and awe in all that I do, I am being with nature and animals as much as I can, and I am starting to choose simpler things in life that bring me enormous joy that costs me very little and cost the planet nothing.
The two underlying loves and focus of my living has been, nature, and the sharing of myself and learning with others through conversation. These two elements have now come together in ‘feeling to footprint’.
