Leaf Running-rabbit, 50 years old
Heritage/Ancestry: 1/4 Shawnee, 1/4 Mvskoke Creek, 1/2 Dutch/European, 100% Earth Human
I live at 9,000 feet elevation in the Rocky Mountains in Ward, CO. in a 100% off-grid straw bale house I built myself. I have lived here and off-grid for 30 years. I am divorced with 2 children, River Sage, 30, and Ella Wren, 24. I am a semi-retired entrepreneur who built two businesses from the ground up (a green-building/straw bale construction company and a chimney sweep company) and sold them both 3 years ago.
Now my focus is my own genre called Photo Poetics, which is a relationship between writing and photography where a poem is coupled with a photo or series of photos, each one saying what the other one cannot. In other words, the poem captures in words what the photo captures in image, and vice versa.
I am a published writer with Middlecreek Publishing and Audio, and am a regular featured writer for Solar Today, a quarterly publication focused on solar energy and off-grid living (www.ases.org).
Other focuses currently taking up my time are Ceremony, Mentorships, Ritual, and Spiritual Art. I work with many children, teens, and schools in the areas of Earth-centered Lifeways, the Medicine Wheel of Life teachings and its practical use in everyday life, as well as Sweatlodge and Sacred Pipe Ceremonies.
I also do regular workshops, retreats, and Ceremony Rituals with entrepreneurs and business team building groups from all across the country. And finally, I regularly do guided back country ski and hike trips through the wilderness and up onto the Continental Divide, of course with all kinds of Teachings along the way!
