Series Facilitator
Liz is a longtime change maker and norm shaker in the fields of sustainable development and social impact, so knows how much heart goes into caring about our world. That’s why she designed the We Heal For All Circle model to offer healing-oriented community space for fellow change makers to thrive in their work and usher in the heart-based consciousness shifts we need to address the challenges we face. She now trains folks on how to bring the Circle model to their communities and offer it in a way that’s unique to them.
