"Seven years ago I made the sea change to the Northern Rivers from Sydney.

I had always planned a more connected, purposeful life knowing I had to develop my skills an international corporate arena and be exposed to the trends of global change. Armed with this, I now help businesses and community adapt to the inevitable change in the global economy.

 

"We can be slow to change, resisting it in a variety of ways, failing to see truths. It is as much psychological and ideological as it is social and environmental. I have learnt about humans, how we operate as and in systems, our cognitive dissidence and how we can take small steps that create big changes. It feels good to act, to participate and be engaged; it is empowering, fulfilling, and of economic, social and environmental benefit. It is easy to implement and is fun."
