A Bit About Me

A bit of Vision - I see a world where deep happiness drives our lifestyle choices and world-building. Systems transformation takes place because it just feels better to make circular and regenerative choices. Compassion and joy are baked in the DNA of all cultural artifacts - including our economy, institutions, and businesses. 

A bit of Mission - Whether through business or art, my work facilitates the conscious transformation of humankind towards inner and outer harmony. Inner peace, balance with nature, and all the stuff in between. 

How I Work

Words

Public Speaking, Podcast, Music, Essays


 

Public Speaking - With a decade of public speaking experience, I speak as a subject matter expert in Sustainability, Resiliency and Clean Energy - usually representing the corporate or government organizations I work for. Believe it or not, my youth leadership in Boy Scouts led me to address thousands of Boy Scouts at a time from 2000-2004.

Podcast - Interviewing pioneers in psycho-spiritual healing, community life, and nature reconnection - I co-founded The Sacred Everything podcast. Check us out on all podcast platforms. Listen to The Sacred Everything


Music - Relaxing and poppy, my music tells stories of empowerment and enlightenment in daily life. How can we keep the light on inside, throughout bouts of anxiety in a changing world? The answer: awakening love, every second of every day. Listen to Travis & Samadhi

 

Essays - I write about the the relationship between humankind, the non-human world, and spirituality. Check out my Writing
