Are you treating nature as an asset?


Dear Reader,

Did you know that we would need 1.6 earths to be able to continue with our activities as we are?

We need to change. Either we change or change is upon us. It’s been that way for millennia. Just in the last decade we have become glued to our smartphones, witnessed the power and danger of social media, saw the effects of climate change become real, experienced how inequality grew, saw the politization of the global migration crisis, had hard conversations about sex and power, and grappled with LGBTQ rights and representation (PBS).

Change challenges us. As human beings we resist change on all levels. Change requires us to reflect and be open to shifting our mindset. It’s not easy when seemingly everything is in flux and we just want to be able to control something. Anything.

I wrote this article to help clarify and jump start a shift in how we see nature from a balance sheet perspective. See what you think:

Dear Reader, Creatives and industry leaders attended conferences like SXSW in Austin, game developers attended GDC in San Francisco, and travel professionals went to ITB in Berlin this month. There are well over 200 conferences/trade shows, congresses, etc. worldwide in the month of March alone! They cater to professionals wanting to keep up with their skills and industry trends alike. Some attend partially because it’s almost tribal and they are afraid of missing out (FOMO). Others attend...

Dear Reader, Another year has passed and it is important for every leader to pause and reflect. And this time I took a bit of a bigger view. After living in a remote part of the Sierra Nevada for four years, I purchased a fixer upper in Monterey, California, six years ago. Everyone I showed the house to thought I had gone nuts. It was built in the 1950s, had never been renovated, had a leaky roof, and was located on a steep hill with a failing foundation (in earthquake country it is not good...

Dear Reader, When things are a little slower in the summer, I tend to reflect and recalibrate. This includes a mindful exploration of where I have come from and where I am trying to go on an individual and a collective level.
