Welcome!
I’m glad you’re here.
We have
important
work to do.
What if we actually aimed for thriving?
Too often, we accept busyness and productivity as their own reward. Or we’re afraid to be bold, so we aim for something less than thriving.
As a result, we’re falling dangerously short of thriving in our communities, in our organizations and in our own lives.
So, what if we recognized the characteristics of thriving living systems in our organizations and communities?
And what if that were somehow simple and useful, opening up new insights and suggesting new ways forward?
What if our most powerful role is to act as stewards of life’s processes, actively cultivating the fertile conditions for life to thrive?
And what if this helped us achieve all of our other objectives more effectively?
This is the most important work of our times.
This is the practice of thrivability.
Here’s how I can help.
Whether you’re an organizational leader, a community planner or just someone looking for answers, here are some ways I can help.

For the past several months, I’ve been co-hosting a Montréal dinner and conversation series to explore the emerging global movement around regeneration. When my two co-hosts and I realized that the next gathering would fall on September 30 – Canada’s National Day of...
The Need for Practice Grounds (or: The Outer Work of Inner Development)
I've been in multiple conversations lately with people who have recently discovered the regenerative movement, with its worldview of greater alignment with life. They feel drawn to bring living systems principles into their work with organizations. They're dreaming of...
From Convincing to Convening
“But how can we convince the others?” It never fails. No matter what the sector, I can almost count down the seconds before this question comes up in any good-size gathering where we’re exploring the need to shift to more life-aligned, regenerative perspectives and...
