If you could invite 1 person to a dinner party – who would it be and why?
I would invite Socrates and ask him what did you teach in your mystery schools and what do I need to know for sure?
What motivates you? Makes you happy?
What motivates me is using my imagination to create an idea and see it convert to an actual reality. What makes me happy is writing in my journal and expressing every thought, feeling, idea, frustration and help I need in any or every area of my life…
What advice would you give your 10-year-old self?
No matter what, stay on your path. Have the end game in your mind. See it every moment of everyday until it becomes YOUR reality. You will be knocked down and compromised but that will build your character and strengthen your spirit. Everyone else will always have a say of what you should do an be but if you are not inspired to be like them then simply say thank you and continue to see that end goal in your mind…
If you could make 1 global change – what would it be?
Change the education system.
What are your Top 3 achievements?
Achieving 2 start ups
Understanding my inner self and how that relates to life
Giving up labels & stuff that defined me
What does sustainability mean for you?
It means collaboration – across all areas – business, agriculture, water, infrastructure, plants, animals, Human life.
What was the most important event/influence that changed your perspective?
3 hours after giving birth to my son, I reached to the side of my bed to get my lip balm. I opened my purse and my business card fell out. That moment was the impetus to the transformation of my entire SELF that has created an intense passion around my vocation today.
