Book Carol Wanjeru to speak
Available for talks, panels, and workshops on regenerative living, land restoration, wellness and mindfulness, and starting from nothing.
- From Dirt to Page: writing Rooted while building a forest
- Regenerative Living: lessons from five acres in Kamulu
- Starting From Scratch: what land restoration teaches about beginning again
- Wellness in the Era of Burnout: what the land can teach high-pressure careers, for doctors, executives, and other high-stakes work
Newest topic: Wellness in the Era of Burnout. Doctors, executives, and other people running on empty spend their days carrying other people's emergencies. This talk borrows from what it actually takes to regenerate five acres of dead land, patience, small consistent inputs, knowing when to leave something alone, and turns it into something usable for burned-out professionals. Not another wellness lecture.
