Let them not say: we did not see it. We saw.
What Will it Take for Us to Act -Really Act?- on the Climate Crisis?

This is the Time to be Slow by John O'Donohue
This is the time to be slow,
Lie low to the wall
Until the bitter weather passes.
Try, as best you can, not to let
The wire brush of doubt
Scrape from your heart
All sense of yourself
And your hesitant light.
If you remain generous,
Time will come good;
And you will find your feet
Again on fresh pastures of promise,
Where the air will be kind
And blushed with beginning.

Tools for Transitions: Navigating the Paradoxes, Polarities and Paradigms in Climate Coaching
Tools for Transitions
Navigating the Paradoxes, Polarities and Paradigms in Climate Coaching
The Climate Coaching Alliance Global Festival starts this Thursday with a KEYNOTE Festival (8 speakers from 3/2 to 3/5) followed by a FRINGE Festival (with over 50 presentations from the Climate Coaching Alliance community from 3/06 to 3/31).
I would like to invite you to join me and the Climate Coaching Alliance community for this one-of-a-kind free festival of coaching. I am not presenting this year - I did last year.
There is a plethora of interesting presentations on the themes that are close to my heart: indigenous wisdom, nature practices, poetry, climate feminism, regenerative leadership, and many more.
The intention for this festival is to build coaches’ confidence and competence, knowledge, capacity, mobilisation and empowerment for climate coaching and action through:
Giving knowledge for guidance, best practice, inspiration, information, awareness and engagement
Empowering/developing coaches through, skills, tools support, engagement, eco cycle
Providing space for community and collaboration, partnerships, exploration and reflective conversations
I hope to see you there. All details on the Climate Coaching Alliance website.

Silence by Hafez
A day of Silence
Can be a pilgrimage in itself.
A day of Silence
Can help you listen
To the Soul play
its marvelous lute and drum.
Is not most talking
A crazed defense of a crumbling fort?
I thought we came here
To surrender in Silence,
To yield to Light and Happiness,
To Dance within
In celebration of Love's Victory!
