Another Way was written for, and dedicated to, “a new generation of people—the dreamers, freedom fighters, artists, and warrior-healers—who refuse to accept things as they are as all that there is.” People who desire another way to live and lead change.n
Another Way, written by Stephe Lewis, Matthew Wesley Williams, and Dori Baker, is available wherever books are sold.

I design experiences that welcome the stories, energy and wisdom in the room to come alive. Let’s connect and grow together.
