Q&A chats; workshops; consultations

GROUP CHATS; WORKSHOPS:

Informational and motivational chats with neighborhood associations, communities, churches, clubs, and other groups. Bring your questions, or we can simply talk in an unstructured way. You can also choose to have a workshop — just pick a theme and we’ll do it!

Regarding “talks” as in lectures: I mostly don’t do those anymore, as I prefer to provide a more interactive experience.

(Ideal group size is 20 people or less. And yes, you can be a “group” of just one if you like.)

Chats and workshops are by Zoom, phone, or other tele-technology, so I’m available to you wherever you’re located. This allows me to offer you realtime interactive experiences while eliminating geographic barriers and optimizing our collective footprint. Including making best use of our own precious human energy!

(If you absolutely prefer an in-person session, I will do my best to refer you to potential speakers in your hyperlocal area.)

All of the above are $100 per hour (per group, not per person).

RADIO:

I am available as a radio guest. Remote only; and no video. (From extensive experience as a radio guest over the past 20 years, I have found that needing to worry about being video’d is stressful and inhibiting. In the “olden days,” radio was only voice and we didn’t have to worry about how we looked on camera. Not everyone is like me, and if you prefer an in-person and/or on-video guest, I will be happy to refer you to other potential radio guests who are willing to meet those conditions.)

CONSULTATIONS:

Available by phone, zoom, or other tele-technology. $100 per hour.

Relevant background:

In addition to my extensive permaculture-design training and practice, I draw on a wide-ranging background in the arts, graphic design, social sciences, space design/decluttering, marketing, and other disciplines; plus an exceptionally wide range of experience living in different types of environments; as well as steady participation in local government. And, I am actively practicing Degrowth /regenerative economics and Deep Adaptation.
