WAYS WOMEN LEAD

I have lived in New Mexico, on land that lies between the Rio Grande River and the Sangre de Cristos Mts., since 1969. Being here, under a huge sky has given me many opportunities: to be in an dream group that has lasted for 18 yrs! to work in the arenas of death and dying and restorative justice and to learn from both the land and the people who inhabit it. I facilitate retreats and trainings in Compassionate Presence, Death and Dying, Being with Dreams and Drinking from the Well that Sustains Us (a retreat aimed at stress reduction) This is a very special time of working hard, exploring possibilities and loving the journey...

My Dream
to publish my book, the Gatekeeper...and create a "Gatekeeper" series, focusing on the lives of people I know in India, Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere, who have stayed true to a dream and seen it come to fruition.

Interests
Mustang to Menri, is available on DVD. Filmed in Northern India, at Menri Monastery and in Mustang Nepal, its a beautiful introduction to Bon, the indigenous religion of Tibet, to the ways that monks can serve the people beyond the monastery walls and to the hopes of the Mustang Culture and Education Center. A 4 yr. labor of love that now has its own life in the world. Check it out on Facebook! Bon Mustang to Menri. I thrive in cross-cultural interactions, dream "work" and walking on the mesas and mountains. I practice Zen meditation, travel, enjoy gardening, writing and designing clothes. I work as Spiritual Care Person for a local hospice and train and manage hospice volunteers.

ON WAYS WOMEN LEAD

HOW WOMEN LEAD

What is your passion and how does it lead you forward?
I am passionate about the power of presence and the ways in which our attentiveness to one another is a dynamic 'healing" force that gives rise to group wisdom. I am passionate about the resiliency and courage that is at the heart of our human experience. This has lead me to facilitate Restorative Justice for youth in Northern New Mexico, to working in the arena of death and dying, and to designing retreats and trainings that open space for creative exploration and discovery of our inner and outer resources. This passion has given me the courage and impetus to connect globally, to take chances, to engage with life as fully as I can. It helps me overcome fear, so that I can step fully and authentically into whatever situation i enter.

What attracted you to Ways Women Lead?
I am happiest when i am connected with people who are creatively engaged in their own lives and the life of the world. In fact, that connection sustains me, nourishes me and helps me step out more fully. I know that the ways in which Women lead make the world more compassionate, healthy and sustainable. So I want to know more about what the women engaged with this site are doing...for inspiration and for a sense of our connectedness.

How do see yourself partnering with Ways Women Lead's projects?
I am not sure yet. But i am willing to engage/partner in ways that use my skills and serve the greater good.
