1. What is your passion or purpose you are being called to bring into action right now?
I am called to motivate, inspire and activate the power women have. Power to bring the values women hold dear into the culture. Initiating deeper conversation and action.

2. What were the motivating factors or defining moments that inspired you to get involved and share your passion?
It was a natural evolution of my consciousness. Awakening to my power and responsibility as a women. As co-founder of Gather the Women, publishing a newsletter called Seeing the World Through Women’s Eyes for 17 years, and founder of Women Waking the World. I have been doing this work for 35 years.

3. What is your mantra or favorite quote you refer to when you seek inspiration or hope and why?
“Take a leap of faith”……we to often allow obstacles to keep us from taking action, or speaking our ideas and opinions.

4. Tell us about a moment recently when you were standing in your full power and purpose?
Creating GTW’s March event’s, I have the opportunity to deliver a talk that is peppered with my passion and purpose. And do so at every opportunity! And write in my newsletter from that place!

5. Why is the work you are doing so important for everyday women?
I believe women either have forgotten, or do not know their own history as a women separate from the history of “mankind”. I believe the central crisis of our times is the devaluation of the feminine. The devaluation of the feminine allows the degradation of the Earth, the abuse of women, their exclusion from influence, and ultimately the decline of all life. Solutions begin by understanding how the imbalance of the masculine and feminine is the root cause of the fundamental issues of our time. We need to find new ways to educate, communicate and begin the transformation needed to a balanced humanity in right-relationship to the feminine and Mother Earth.

6. Why is it so important for women to participate in an event like the Passion into Action Conference?
It is critical for us to deepen our sisterhood, stay educated on the issues of our times that impact women in particular. Find inspiration, motivation, connection and the actions we can incorporate in our daily lives. Wake up! Do not let passivity or despair overwhelm us.

7. What are you hoping will be the biggest take-aways for women both at the Passion into Action Conference and your workshop?
Just that! Inspiration, creative thinking, motivated and finding like “hearted” women.

8. What is your message to women around the world?
When women rise ~ ALL humanity is lifted. Do your part with no excuses.
