Work With Me

I may be an accidental grief worker, but it is my calling. 

I don´t pretend to be a climate psychologist or eco-therapist. I´m not an expert on collapse.

My focus has always been on creative disruption. And we need to disrupt the way we think, see, and act as we face our changing reality.

We don’t need another framework, podcast, Substack, or Zoom series.
What we need is an irresistible way to revitalize our natural capacity for creativity.

Colliding crises. Crumbling systems. Cracking structures.

We don´t have time to waste on outdated techniques that fail to address this complexity.

 

We need reliable, revitalizing, and rapid ways to:

🔸 process our emotions

🔸 find our footing

🔸 respond with resilience as our challenges morph and accelerate


What I offer is immersion — deep, daily engagement to transform the way you face the future.

No once-a-week sessions. (Tracking your triggers daily builds clarity and new habits.)

No six-month packages. (A month of every-day exploration boosts knowledge and momentum.) 

It´s a 30-day love-drenched adventure in discovery, disruption, and dedication that profoundly shifts your perspective, your patterns, and your possibilities. 

 

I call what I do companioning rather than counseling or coaching. 

We walk side by side, converting your sadness/anger/fear into insight that ignites your creativity. 

 

It´s not for everyone. It´s for those ready to create a rich, aligned life that meets this wild moment. 

I offer a practical but playful blend of my personal experience in dealing with profound grief and my discoveries while helping 200+ individuals in 20 countries transcend their devastation.

It´s served with a spirited swirl of my training in creative breakthrough coaching, trauma-informed facilitation, mindfulness, breathwork, EFT, conflict resolution, and alternative education.

Together, we advance your ability to adapt to our shifting reality in ways that: 

â—¾ meet you where you are - it is highly personalized to reveal and revamp your own particular way of dealing with dissonance and distress 

â—¾ emphasize disruption rather than rumination to shift thought patterns and habits that keep you locked into despair and paralysis

â—¾ build momentum and consistency to help you find balance and boldness for this bumpy ride

â—¾ leverage your imagination to revive and redirect your creative energy toward personal and collective regeneration

¨I felt lost. I needed a reminder of the beauty of being human. Maya offered me a lifeline.

I finally left my toxic job, and moved to my favorite small city. I have great new collapse-aware friends, work I absolutely love, and a simple home that feels like an oasis.

Every day of working with Maya was like a gift. I cannot express how thankful I am for her kindness and her inspiring process. It changed my life.¨ 

Sheela - former executive assistant, now director of a youth empowerment organization 

 

 

¨I spent nearly a year feeling overwhelmed. I just kept spinning the same stories in my head. I lost friends, and became distant from my family. I chose to work remotely, which added to my isolation.

With Maya´s help, I finally broke free from that sad place. I assembled a core group of others I respect and trust. We are developing new offline skills together to help us anticipate future needs. Best of all, I have rebuilt bonds with those I love. And I am having fun again!¨

 David - IT professional and active community volunteer

 

 

¨Maya´s voice chats were like having a personal coach in my pocket! I feel so much lighter even with all that is happening. I have new rituals and tools for building resilience that energize me daily.

I am a much more conscious and less reactive leader for my team. I feel we are actively creating our part of the future with full awareness.¨

Noreen - owner of a community-building consultancy 

 

My work is informed by my:

â—¾ 30+ years of learning about deep ecology, behavioral psychology, and systems thinking via the work of Joanna Macy, Donella Meadows, Nora Bateson, and others

â—¾ engaged exploration of collapse by integrating relevant information from scientific research and the thoughtful work of Jem Bendell, Nate Hagens, Ginie Servant-Miklos, Justin McAfee, and others

â—¾ ongoing personal experience in creative adaptation while making major life changes - living in seven countries, building new communities, and immersing in new perspectives

â—¾ deep concern as a grandmother navigating future-related worries while focusing on joy, love, and resilience

Sweet little faces blurred for privacy, but you get the vibe.  🧡
