The 7 R’s of Regeneration
“As an alumni soil advocate from Kiss the Ground, it inspired me to write my book, @regenerateyourreality and continue expanding the @JungleProjectCR mission all about Trees, Training, and Trade. I have felt called to environmentalism since a young age. In 2017, I moved to Costa Rica to follow my passion for nature, permaculture, agroforestry, and community. Now I am teaching soil advocacy to children and activated a monthly webinar series about regeneration in every – way. I believe we can be part of the solution to the climate crisis, and that we all can play our part by living regeneration and coming back to our essence of love.” –
