Nature-Inspired Life Coach ICF PCC, founder Naturally Conscious Community®

With plant partners, I help creative, multi-passionates who often feel pressure to fit into systems never designed for them build lives that are authentic, inspiring, & connected. I help multipotentialites, creatives, and naturepreneurs confidently lead the Naturally Conscious lives they want in collaboration with the plant kingdom (kin-home)

This tortoise has been living across the street from where I live for more than 50 years. Ki lives with a sibling on a property full of fruit trees and wild plants, needing nothing from any humans.

I offered ki an apple. After cutting it into pieces, ki ate every last bite, and let me give some back scratches. Connection.

Some relationships are not about need. They are about a fifty-year-old being who does not require you at all choosing to let you in regardless.

This is Hakuryu as she conquered her plant name, Boswellia, Indian Frankincense.

In Damanhur, a name like this is not chosen alone. It is offered by the people who know you, in public, and accepted only when it feels true. What you are taking on is more than a word. It is a connection to the race mind of that species.

My own plant name, Gardenia, has changed how I think, feel, and move through the world in ways I am still discovering.

What plant could you become? What could change in you if you let ki become part of how you understand yourself?

I was not trying to feel anything. I just looked up. And there they were, answering my inner questions.

When was the last time you listened to trees?

A root never grows alone. It recruits help along the way.

Underground, roots release compounds to call in support. They are closer to a language, one that attracts fungal partners the plant could never reach on its own. What looks like one root reaching through soil is actually a root building relationships the entire time.

Every interest you have ever chased, every project you said yes to, is a root of yours, reaching in its own direction. And just like a plant's roots, it has probably been recruiting its own kind of help along the way, a person, a community, a resource, without you ever calling it that.

Drop one "random" interest of yours in the comments. Let's see if it is actually a distraction or part of something you just can't see.

Why do you keep apologizing for your own interests?

You call it scattered. Unfocused. A phase you have not grown out of yet. You have a whole vocabulary for explaining away the fact that you are drawn to more than one thing at a time, and most of it sounds like an apology.

Nobody apologizes for a plant growing in more than one direction.

Which of your "distractions" have you talked yourself out of and back into more times than you can count?

Roots do not grow in one direction. Some reach down. Some spread sideways. Some barely move at all, staying put to work with the microbes and fungi living right where they are.

From above ground, a plant looks like ki is growing one simple way, up. Ki is not, and below ground it is even less true. A plant nourishes kiself through many different techniques at once, all working in parallel, none of them waiting for the others to finish first.

We are built the same way. You do not have to chase one passion in a straight line to grow strong. The seemingly unrelated ones, the hobby that has nothing to do with your career, the interest you cannot explain the use of yet, are not competing with your growth. They are different roots, doing different jobs, feeding the same plant.

What is a passion of yours that looks unrelated to everything else, but might actually be feeding you in a way you have not noticed yet?

07/08/2026

You called it a distraction. What if it was actually part of your purpose?

Every interest you have ever chased and then abandoned, every project you started and then quietly let go of, every hobby someone raised an eyebrow at, felt like proof that you cannot stick to anything.

Here is another way to look at it. Each one was a thread. Not a detour from your life's work, a piece of it.

Plants never grow in a straight line either. A root reaches somewhere that looks like nowhere before ki finds water. A vine climbs in a direction that looks like wandering until you see what ki was reaching for the whole time.

The pattern is already there, running underneath everything you have ever tried. Most of us just never learned how to see it.

What did you brush off as "just another thing I got distracted by" that might actually be part of something bigger?

04/08/2026

You knew before you had proof. Then you spent hours finding the proof anyway.

That is the pattern worth noticing. Not that you occasionally get a hunch, but that you routinely wait for evidence to catch up to something you already knew, as if the knowing does not count until it is backed up.

Think about the last time you were right about a person, a decision, or a situation, before you could explain why. Did you act on it then or did you wait until you had a reason you could defend out loud?

Most of us wait. We have been taught that a feeling is not information until it can be justified. So we sit on what we know while we build a case for it, and by the time the case is built, the moment it mattered has usually passed.

Plants I work with do not have this problem. A root does not wait for proof that water is nearby before growing toward it. The knowing and the acting are the same motion. There is an inherent trust that the information is arriving, regardless of the source.

What is one thing you already know right now that you are waiting to justify before you act on it?

They said plants cannot be conscious. Then they said machines could be. What gives?

Plant neurobiology became a real field in 2006, and the line has been moving ever since, always one step ahead of whatever question gets too close to something we depend on using.

Meanwhile, tech companies are funding research into whether an AI might be conscious. Notice the difference. A conscious AI is still something you can sell, license, and put to work. A conscious plant is not.

Here is the part that actually matters. We are not ready to accept that plants are conscious, because we can barely face what we do to each other. Human trafficking is still happening in plain sight and most of the world still looks away. If plants turn out to be aware, every field, every plant store, every clothing rack, and every piece of furniture becomes a question about how we treat someone, not something.

That is the conversation we keep having in Naturally Conscious Community, the one most people are not ready to have yet.

What would change for you if you knew, for certain, that the plant on your desk was aware of you?
