VoyageAustin first interviewed me years ago. They recently asked me back.
A lot has changed since that first conversation.
The work has expanded across consulting, coaching, medicine-making, leadership, and the deeper patterns that shape how people live, work, and relate.
The common thread is much clearer now:
I help capable people and teams get unstuck and strengthen the relationships, agreements, and systems their lives and work depend on.
Emotional intelligence is something I have been learning, practicing, and integrating into leadership for more than three decades.
Sometimes that means helping a founder-led team understand why meetings, decisions, ownership, or delegated work keep breaking down.
We look at what is actually happening, separate observation from interpretation, reduce unnecessary blame, and focus on what can practically change.
That often requires being willing to see your own blind spots instead of assuming the problem is always somewhere else.
Sometimes it means supporting someone through a meaningful transition or a pattern they are finally ready to change.
That requires radical responsibility: looking honestly at your part, honoring agreements, practicing something different, and continuing when insight alone is not enough.
Wild Child Medicines remains the herbal and land-based side of the same work.
Sometimes the most useful intervention is not another strategy. Sometimes our bodies need support for the lives we ask them to live, or we need to step away long enough to rest, reconnect with Nature, and remember what the work is for.
The new VoyageAustin conversation tells that progression more fully.
If you would like to read it, comment or message me and I’ll send you the article personally as time allows.
If this brings someone to mind, I would especially value an introduction to:
a founder or leader with a capable team that keeps getting stuck;
an operations leader carrying responsibility without enough decision authority;
a team, clinic, practice, or department with a real sponsor for change; or
an individual in transition ready for honest reflection, accountability, and meaningful change.
I’m also open to local businesses, practitioners, cafes, shops, and communities interested in thoughtful Wild Child Medicines retail, wholesale, events, or aligned collaboration.
You do not need to explain everything I do.
A simple “I think you two should meet” is enough.
My work is not for everyone.
It works best with people willing to look honestly at themselves, honor agreements, and follow through when change requires more than a good conversation.
Not every introduction will become a client or partnership. That is okay.
I would rather have a handful of honest conversations and discover what is genuinely aligned than force every connection into an outcome.
