Hello my friends,

This October, with the 2nd Circle, our Art of Being® training launches in full, after the exploratory 1st Circle in March. It will be the last training in which I will play a central role, working alongside Kae and Kaja all the way through to the 5th Circle in Spring 2028. Together, we are ushering in a new phase of The Art of Being. This next chapter opens new opportunities for how I continue to contribute to this, the great vocational love of my life!

Now in my early 80s, I feel called to bring my resources where they can serve you most deeply as they sustain my energy for years to come. So I’m choosing to focus on the workshops, processes and encounters that inspire me most and where I can make my fullest contribution.

In the 16 years that Kae and Kaja have shared in this work with me, our different strengths continually enrich the depth, creativity and vitality of what we offer. We are shaping a transition, not a farewell. The work is evolving into a richer collaboration, drawing on the unique experience and presence that each of us brings.

My own part, as many of you have experienced and witnessed, finds its highest expression in circle work. When I look back over the decades I have spent sitting with people in workshop circles, I am still deeply moved by the countless moments and experiences that changed people’s lives – moments when people rediscovered themselves, moments of awakening, of inner reconciliation, and experiences through which old wounds found healing. The ways these things happen has always seemed somewhat mysterious, magical even. Yet it has never felt to me as though it were my doing, but rather as though I am allowed to be a catalyst—a mediator for something greater – a mystery that I am privileged to serve. It is from this deeper source that insights, understandings and actions arise bringing people profound and life-changing breakthroughs. All that is needed is the circle, and so it has been for 50 years and counting! My very personal privilege, for which I feel infinite gratitude, lies in how this work continues to transform my own life and being over the years.

This being the final training in which I will play a central facilitating role, I am filled with especially joyful anticipation – to be once again, with all my heart-and-soul-presence, in this space where so much depth, transformation, genuine closeness and shared joy are constantly emerging!

If your life needs this intimate 2-year love-affair with the deepest essence of your BEING, it’s not too late. If you missed the start in March and would really like to be with us, you are really welcome to contact Kaja and discuss the possibility of joining the 2nd Circle in October. And of course, there are other opportunities too. If my name is in the line-up, I’m there!

Bon voyage, with love
