On a journey of discovering just where my niche is in this tribal community... hoping to become self-employed in the near future. I see this year as a process of discovering just what it is (what skills) i can market, to provide sustainability to myself, and the community at large.

My profile only offers a taste/glimpse of what i do in the world, and i've yet to find clairity in what exactly my "package" is.

Skills:

YOuth adovocacy: empowering young people to become agents of positive change in the world.... living/fulfilling their passions

Facilitation: guiding groups through processes of problem-solving, trust-building, communication exercises, via adventure programming (hiking, backpacking, challenge/ropes courses, rock climbing, etc.); intentional playshops; designing/ facilitating workshops, classes, retreats, conferences, etc.

Conflict resolution/mediation: assisting friends, co-workers, families, youth, etc. in resolving conflicts peacefully-- generating win-win outcomes; implementing nonviolent communication (NVC) strategies.

Event Planning: parties, conferences, retreats, sacred experiences. Expertise in organizing/delegating. I love to create forums for sacred experiences/exchanges.

Life Coaching: working with adolescence to discover/actualize personal stregnths, counseling, listening, problem-solving, confidence building, raising self-esteem
***********************************

I would love to work on designing my own business in alternative therapy; providing self-empowerment tools to those interested in taking FULL responsibility for themselves in the world.

Any suggestions on how to turn this into a package? Any thoughts or ideas on what's missing from my skill list that seems essential to this line of work?

Love n' LIght,
