All my life, I've been asking the
questions: “What does it mean to be
alive on Earth at this time? What am I really here to do? What unique
contribution can I make?” The answers
have come as I chose to uncompromisingly follow my inner calling and live
my life as a process and a soul journey, in service to my soul work: the reason I'm here. My lifelong passion for writing
began when I was a child and became the motivation for making a conscious choice in the early ‘90’s to follow my creative
process wherever it led me. Seeking wild nature and meditative silence, I took sanctuary in some beautiful places, first in the Highlands of Scotland,
and then in Aotearoa - New Zealand, a place of spiritual
deepening and community participation. I
made my home at the top of the South Island and wrote and published my first book: Migration
to the Heartland: a Soul Journey in Aotearoa in 2004.
I'm a committed spiritual activist and poet of the tribe; someone who learns from the inside out, explores
deeply, and then passes my learning to others through writing, teaching
and coaching. The deeper I go into my own experience, the more I tune
into collective experience and universal truth. From this place I have
more compassion for self and others and I can participate in healing
the world.
I'm also a visionary. A
WHOLE NEW WORLD started with a vision I received in 1995 when I first arrived in New Zealand and has grown from many hours, days, weeks, years of creative
thinking. In 2006 this vision translated into a
Transformational Learning Community, linking people around the
country. I also identified eight pillars of transformational learning,
areas where we need, individually and collectively, to develop new attitudes
and skills, in order to grow a positive future. This has now become a beginning curriculum in skills for the transition, which I'm now further exploring through a monthly publication, New Moon Magic.
I came to the USA in 2007, after meeting soulfriend, fellow writer and consciousness delver, Woods Elliott, on the Internet. Here in Virginia, I wrote my second book, “Living your Passion: How Love- in-action is seeding
a Whole New World” based on interviews which show how ordinary
people are transforming the world by
having the courage to live authentic lives.
In 2008 I was granted a visa to work in the US as someone with extraordinary ability as an educator and writer
and, with Woods I'm co-creating A WHOLE NEW WORLD and FIRE SEEDS
PUBLISHING, a direct distribution network for transformational books and
resources.

Each one of us makes a difference, and together we can do what seems impossible.
At the core of
living my passion is the ideal of living an authentic life; a life lived from
my own creative centre....living one’s passion is about being a creative
artist, whether the work of “art” is ones own life, a community project or
writing a book.
Never doubt that
a small group of committed citizens can change the world. Indeed it is the only
thing that ever can. Margaret Mead.
We
are the living face of evolution, the eyes and the hands and the wings and
minds of the universe weaving itself into its next manifestation, day after day
after day. And humans are the growing edge of the universe becoming
conscious. Tom Atlee
Every one of us who experiences an awakening, a sense of
comprehensive compassion for the whole, a motivation to express our unique
creative gifts, is helping to move the whole of humanity toward critical mass
leading to a consciousness shift. Barbara
Marx Hubbard
Awakened doing is the alignment of your outer purpose - what you do -
with your inner purpose - awakening and staying awake. Through awakened doing, you become one with
the outgoing purpose of the universe.
Consciousness flows through you into the world. It flows into your thoughts and inspires
them. It flows into what you do and guides and empowers it.
Eckhart Tolle
