In group ceremonies and in solitude, on the land, near the sea, in the forest, under the stars, we can quiet the mind, open the heart, and remember we matter.

Kimberly Danek Pinkson

Inspired by 20 years of going on Vision Quests and learning from Indigenous elders and ancient wisdom ways, Kimberly has been committed to restoring awareness of our global interconnection throughout a mission-driven career. The principles, ceremonies, and traditions she incorporates in her work are based on Nature and the lineage and teachings her dad, Dr. Pinkson, was given by his Indigenous mentors beginning over 55 years ago. 

Kimberly has led classes and retreats around the world and been a keynote speaker on sustainability, children in nature, and the power of moms at conferences such as Bioneers, The World Women’s Conference in Seoul, Korea, the North Carolina Women’s Conference, and Natural Products Expos East and West; she has also been a media analyst on channels such as TODAY, 20/20, and Bloomberg, and she has worked with brands such as Stonyfield Farms, Mercedes-Benz, Walmart, Sierra Club, the United Nations, Nissan, and NBC Universal.

All of Kimberly’s work is inspired by her son and nephews and all of the children of the world.

Andrew Smyth, M.A., LMFT

Andrew is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for healing through nature connection. He believes each of us has a unique inner knowing which constantly attempts to guide us towards our highest potential and as a therapist, it is his job—in the office or in the backcountry—to create an environment of safety and trust for one’s knowing to be acknowledged and understood. 

Through a combination of mindfulness, somatic based therapy (Hakomi) and nature connection we can relearn how to regulate our system and find balance in the now. Once our mind/body is able to relax and let down its “protective mode” we are open to a natural organicity of healing. In this often chaotic and fast paced world, we forgot how to slow down in order to remember our bodies innate wisdom. The co-regulation of a safe therapeutic relationship, combined with nature provides the container for deep healing and transformation.
