RE-CONNECTING HUMANS TO NATURE

Reconnecting humans to nature, there has been many traditions that have been lost through the ages. Whispering Woods botanicals LLC goal is to bring back that ancient wisdom of plants, stones, and the energy of the elements.

Whispering Woods botanicals LLC has been created for the energies of the woods to share their knowledge, using plants consistently in diet and topically can have a profound effect on our overall well-being. Our diet has the biggest impact on our overall energetic field, by consuming the right plants, either by avoiding allergy, balancing Dosha, or avoiding processed food / large amounts of sugar.

I'm hoping by starting this journey with Whispering Woods botanicals LLC, that I can bring people closer to nature.

Cookery classes

Vegan + fun + inspiring cooking classes! 🌱

As a vegan chef with the Humane Society of the United States, I travel around the country to teach institutional foodservice chefs, cooks, and dietetic professionals how to meet the growing demand for vegan meals and implement plant-based options into their menus.

At home in Seattle, I created Rainy Day Vegan to help everyone find ways to be true to our values and make ethical choices even when it might not seem simple. Let me show you how easy it is to eat vegan with tasty swaps to familiar dishes, and create delicious meals free of meat, dairy, or eggs.

Trimazing offers health and lifestyle coaching and classes in whole food, plant-based eating, with vegan ethics in the greater Seattle area and online throughout the US and beyond!

Animals

Helping animal advocates be more effective through research. 🐷🐰🐱🦁

Faunalytics' mission is to empower animal advocates with access to research, analysis, strategies, and messages that maximize their effectiveness to reduce animal suffering.

Animals need you, and you need data. We conduct essential research, maintain an online research library, and directly support advocates and organizations in their work to save lives. The range of data we offer helps our movement understand how people think about and respond to advocacy, providing advocates with the best strategies to inspire change for animals.
