Now

It´s heavy out there. 

It helps to focus on the gratitude and joy we can access right where we are.

March 2026:

I just got back from a wonderful three-week trip to the U.S.

Here's some glorious art by my 6-year-old granddaughter.

Coming soon:

🧡 my article for Compass, a magazine for the Association of Professional Futurists. Coming out this month in the Wild Cards & Black Swans issue.

🧡 my interview in Grist will be published this month, too.

🧡 I am preparing to speak at the World Adaptation Forum in Budapest in April.

What I am grateful for this month: 

 

1) Spending time with my oldest daughter and her family in their lovely home in California for the last time, as they are moving next month. 

 

2) Getting the chance to do pick-ups and drop-offs at the elementary school and preschool! 

 

3) I was invited to chat with Dean Spillane-Walker (who has been talking about collapse for decades), and our casual Zoom was turned into an episode on his The Poetry of Predicament podcast on YouTube.

4) Coming "home" to Amsterdam (after traveling to the U.S.) for the first time since moving here last April. And we were greeted by beautiful spring weather!

 

5) It's early March as I write this. So, there's more to come. 

 

 

What are YOU loving right now?

I´m always happy to hear from you.

Just send me an email or a DM on LinkedIn
