Stories So Far.

My personal regenerative journey.

Wait, where have I been when? And what happened there that I want to remember? Sometimes, in order to make memories stick, let information become experience and knowledge, you need to write them down. I need to write them down. To be able to go back. To be able to reflect. These are insights, moments, and anecdotes about life, travels, and the people I have met and don’t want to forget.

Unplanned. [US roadtrip 2022.]

April 25, 2023

„It was so nice when we were allowed to make music under the gazebo. We sat together, jammed, and laughed. It was real, it felt so good.“ It’s getting dark. I only see his cigarette light up once in a while, the stars above, and the headlights of the trucks

Holistic Management

Holistic Management ist eine Reise.

April 18, 2023

Als ich von meinem Holistic Management Training zurück kam, hatte ich viel gehört, gesehen und gelernt. Wie treffen wir Entscheidungen in Komplexität? Wie ändert die Perspektive der Ökosystemprozesse unseren Blick auf die Umgebung? Und wie bringe ich hier meinen eigenen, persönlichen Kontext mit ein? Was mir schwer fiel war, dies

Holistic Management

Becoming.

April 12, 2023

When I stumbled upon Holistic Management by the Savory Institute I was curious. Why was this supposed to be different from all the methods and stuff I have learned so far in my professional journey? I got hooked and have been pouring my energy and time into it since then.

Wildness and a bear. [US roadtrip 2022.]

April 10, 2023

I’m sitting at the big window in our current Airbnb in France. It’s been 6 months since we got back from our US trip. 6 months in which a lot has happened, but not much writing. I’m not sure if until now my mind had already arrived at the last

Holistic Management

Holistic Management is a Journey.

April 8, 2023

I’m sitting at my makeshift desk, looking at all the tasks I have given myself. All the things I want to bring into this world this year. A „Holistic Management Journey“ is currently on my drawing board and wants to be sketched out and filled with beautiful content. It’s the

Clearing.

March 6, 2023

How do you manage an overgrown, overrested clear cut to become a native forest again? We are walking along the fence line to the neighbor’s property. The sandy path is the only way to walk without getting smacked by Scotch Broom or cut by blackberries. So much Scotch Broom. The

Oregon‘s misty soul. [US Roadtrip 2022.]

January 14, 2023

I am running down to the shore, half stumbling to the sand that gives way underneath my feet. „I missed you, I missed you so much,“ I am shouting, half in honesty, half in fun. The Pacific. The largest and deepest of our oceans. My ocean. I always joke that

Wintering

January 3, 2023

In summer we have started the journey on re-designing our hub Land Regeneration Finding way more questions than answers in trying to figure out our purpose, our value. The last days I was blessed to follow an invitation north. 48 hours of intense campfire chats. Of deep dives into gratitude,

Californian Breakfast Diner [US Roadtrip 2022]

December 9, 2022

One sentence we heard repeatedly during our trip was „You are real people.“ At first, I was confused. What does that mean? And what does it mean not to be? When we listened to the meaning behind it, we heard other things coming to the surface. Real people as in

Yosemite. [US Roadtrip 2022]

November 20, 2022

Bridge and I had been to Yosemite 4 1/2 years ago. It was February, and the park was covered in snow. We had pulled in at the small parking ground at the end of the valley. The only open hike was one towards some kind of waterfall, I can’t even

Integrazers – timberland and wildfire prevention

October 31, 2022

How can we create our desired, resilient future landscape with a healthy and thriving ecosystem while balancing the needs of timber company, herders, and animals? I’m kneeling with Lee on the ground of the timber plantation. We look at the work result of the 2.000 goats who have been here

Zion. [US Roadtrip 2022]

October 11, 2022

“Don’t just hit the big National Parks, also go to the smaller State Parks,” I hear Byron’s voice echoing in my head when we made Zion our stop. I find it fascinating how quickly special places become big tourist magnets. Not just with National Parks. And yet, although paved roads,

West Bijou Reflections

September 21, 2022

#1 Gratitude. The days passed by quickly at West Bijou. Checking on the bison at sunrise became meditation, a morning ritual I will miss. Together with the others, I dove deeper into Holistic Management and learned more than I could have wished for – from the place, the animals, and
