I’d rather be… Outside with the expansive painted sky at sunrise… hiking up a steep rugged mountain… skiing… reading/studying/learning

Recharge… Immersed in creative cooking… communing with nature in Telluride… forest bathing… inventing/designing

Joyful endeavors… Planting our wild array of dahlias every year… tending to the native and honey bees on our little farm… observing our enormous Ukrainian Maine Coon cats… amazing creatures

Best daily habit… Focus… and a Dandelion cilantro celery shot…

Most enjoyable daily habit… Overindulging in very very good dark chocolate and the ritual of preparing and tasting artisanal teas and honey

Passionate about… High vibration clean eating…soil health the microbiome of the planet… biodynamic beekeeping… power to the pollinators… sacred geometry… healing architecture… chromotherapy… lowering EMF exposure… helping people on their journey

I’d love to… Have dinner with Jose Andres… he is an angel on earth

If I could wave a wand… I would make sure everyone had access to no GMO fruits, veg, and clean water… sprinkle fairy dust and infuse harmony and virtue across the globe…

Totem animal… Bison for stamina and endurance… high vibe honey bees for their tireless work for the greater good of the hive … crow/raven the truth speaker… hummingbird small but mighty… spreading joy from flower to flower…

Indulgent pleasure… My GoldBelly habit… Stan’s lemon pistachio donuts… Veniero’s coconut cake… Soma salted licorice bar… Gobini dark chocolate hazelnut… experimental chocolate orders from around the globe… chocolate covered heirloom corn with harissa is addictively yummy… high phenol olive oil tastings at home with crusty sourdough and a cornucopia of salts… always seeking next level artisanal food products…I’m a taster

Favorite kitchen gadget… Micro zesters… there is a range to explore… it can be a culinary game changer

I love to collect… Fascinated with exotic moths, beetles, and butterflies… examining how we communicate sparked an interest in rare vintage phones… antique glove, hat, and eyewear molds… ancient masks… tools for shape shifting… anything to do with the study of color and ancient archetypes

On top of the book stack… The Emerald Tablet… Drawdown… The Stoic… Plant Power

Still working on… Being a more effective conduit for change… off grid living… growing our own veg in mineral rich soil… cold plunging… stretching time to be creative and unleash

Minimalist or maximalist… Maximalist all day long

If you could time travel would you go to the past present future… Stay in the present and actively create the future

The ultimate luxury… Not having to be on our devices

Places I’d like to explore… More of Portugal… Morocco… the raw wildness of Iceland

I love questioning…. why why why… go deep and go home 🙂 …Encouraging people to truly explore how they live and why… actively engage and create a consciously curated abode
