FOUNDER
EMPOWER WITH NATURE
All living things have a unique purpose in the universe, but many of us lose our connection to nature, leaving us feeling purposeless and disconnected. I experienced this firsthand a few years ago, which led me to the desert. There, I lived through sandstorms, slept under the stars, learned permaculture, and embraced sustainable living in community. It was in this environment that I discovered something profound: each person who shared this experience was transformed by reconnecting with nature.
We all need nature connection to truly understand life. That’s why Empower with Nature was created — to inspire others to rediscover the beauty, diversity, and unique role each of us plays in the world. By reconnecting with nature, we can heal ourselves and the planet.
