A world where authentic relationships based on trust are the norm.
Management Consulting
We draw on three decades of work in health system planning, coalition development, collective impact, cross-sector collaboration, leadership development, and organizational change management. We use somatic coaching as an integral part of our approach. Unlike traditional coaching, which focuses on thought patterns alone, somatic coaching integrates the body, mind, and emotions. Our services help leaders and staff cultivate self- and somatic-awareness and authentic presence. We offer guidance and practices to improve communication and emotional intelligence. By recognizing how emotions manifest in the body, we can say what is true to do what is good. We help staff build resilience through stress management and burnout prevention. We believe that by exploring and shifting habitual body patterns, we can achieve deeper and more lasting behavioral change in leadership and workplace culture. CONTACT US
Couples Workshops
Our workshops provide a path to greater embodied awareness and open heartedness to enable a deeper, more authentic connection with your partner. Our introductory workshops are built on Polyvagal Theory and Embodied Mind frameworks. Through a series of exercises, you will explore different types of senses—exteroception, interoception, and proprioception—both individually and as a couple. The curriculum is designed to help you differentiate between individual and partnered sensory experiences, practice refined techniques for giving and receiving touch, and learn to channel the emotional energy from physical contact towards the heart center. The goal is to help you be more present and authentic in your relationship by understanding mutual consent as an ongoing, dynamic conversation within physical interaction. As you progress as a couple your authentic, embodied presence will radiate into your home, your job, and your community. CONTACT US
