“Every crisis, actual or impending, needs to be viewed as an opportunity to bring about profound changes in our society (...)
by creating images and stories of the future that help us imagine and create alternatives to the existing system.”

Dear changemaker,
Whether you are a non profit leader, social entrepreneur or community leader you always lead with your values and the belief that a better world is possible, and you know that the old ways of creating change won't work as natural disasters and social inequity increases across the globe.
Want to do things differently?
Start from the inside out
I take a trauma informed approach to change work so that you can cultivate resilience and feel supported in moving from the familiar and unsustainable status quo, to a new and equitable way of being - I help you figure out what you need to feel supported so as crises stack up you can respond rather than react!
The systems we are currently choosing to use have created multiple crises, the good news is we have the power choose to use different systems - but it will take all of us - and we have prepare ourselves to navigate that change ASAP!
Are you ready to co-create a just and sustainable future together?

Testimonials
"(this program) is an incredible experience for educators and humans in general who want to understand the systems that play into the current context of western society. It is important for all people to get to the base understanding of white supremacy culture before we can begin to move forward in a productive way. Also, content is organized and explained in an incredibly lovely way.
I highly recommend this course to anyone who works with other humans!"

Hi,
I am Daniela!
(she/they)
I work as an artist and facilitator,
. . . but I am really that aunty who is always prepared for any kind of learning or creative emergency - as well as any ACTUAL emergency, of course!
As a little kid all I wanted to do was make art and help people - I thought of being a nurse, plastic surgeon, academic, and even a nun!
As an adult I spent almost 20 years as a frontline mental health worker, 5 years trying to figure out how to bring art into my work, and 5 years practicing anti-oppression creative community building.
My journey has led me to offer intersectional, trauma informed, and creative workshops and programs to support changemakers in preparing to face the crises of today and co-create just and sustainable futures.
I practice and teach community preparedness because I believe a just and sustainable future is possible - if we all work together.
The climate emergency affects all areas of our lives - our family, community, schools, workplaces, and planet.
