Dear friends,

First and foremost, happy new year. I hope this calendar year brings renewed well-being of body, mind, and spirit for you, your loved ones, and all of our communities.

As we bring in the new year, I invite you to join me for an event online or in person exploring the intersection of the Dharma, Nonviolent Communication, and trauma healing. With so much heartache and conflict in the world, I would love to gather, practice, and learn with one another.

Most of these events center around teachings from my new book, Your Heart Was Made For This.
