Need some extra hands?
I’m here to roll up my sleeves with a limited number of clients to help their work soar. Sometimes you might need support with a particular project, frameworks for a particular stage of your work, or just an extra capable human to help you get sh*t done! I’ve been there and am excited to be your partner to make things happen. Here are a few areas I can add value and a bit about the values that guide my work.
Values I Bring to My Work
Center those closest to the problem I am working to solve
There are many types of expertise, including lived expertise and those who’ve devoted their lives to working on the frontlines of an issue. I rely heavily on the wisdom of others who are closest to the problems I am working to solve.
Maintain a beginners mindset
I love to learn and believe that we grow the most when we stay open and curious about the world around us and are brave enough to ask questions and imagine new possibilities. Just because I’ve seen something many times before one way, doesn’t mean it is the right path forward!
Culture is everything
Organizational culture is like the health of a human body: without it, nothing else matters.
Listen deeply
Too often, we barely listen with our ears. Imagine for a moment listening to ourselves and others with our full presence and being. When you listen deeply, what do you hear and understand? What do others’ words, bodies, and actions tell you? And, what does your own body, heart, and soul tell you? Our bodies are filled with wisdom. What does it say?
Change is a team sport
For too long, the narrative around creating change has been about individual heroes. In reality, change is a team sport. Transforming entire ecosystems takes many hands, hearts, and minds moving in unison towards something greater than ourselves.
Listen deeply
Too often, I believe we barely listen with our ears. But, listening to ourselves and others can be so much more. When you listen deeply, what do you understand? What do others’ words, bodies, and actions tell you? And, what does your own body, heart, and soul tell you? Our bodies are filled with wisdom. What do they say?
