Together with her life partner Jim Manske, she offered NVC training and mediation around the world, and continues to offer a Zoom-based practice group with about 50 participants each week with the NVC Academy.

“Our mission is to contribute to well-being and conflict resolution, personally, interpersonally, and in organizations. Jim and I refer to our work as Radical Compassion. Through offering the various tools and practices of Radical Compassion, we help participants to connect more fully with themselves and others. We design our training to stimulate creativity and build resources with a focus on experiential learning; we help communities to develop ongoing systems to support one another in integrating authenticity and empathy into the everyday fabric of their lives. We offer training, facilitation, conflict transformation, mentoring and coaching. Our focus is on building community by creating healthy relationships, and fostering relationship by attending to personal liberation.”
We envision creating a world where everyone wants to belong, one peace at a time, a world where people are contributing to the well-being of each other in mutually satisfying ways.
