About Us
Keeping our kid-like wonder for life and actively engaging with community!
Hi! I'm Jess!
About Me: a spiritual active outdoorsy introvert. I love climbing, mushroom hunting, motorcycles, reading, researching, good conversation and I am 2 years sober (as of 12/4/22). I come with a background in Healthcare and a Bachelors in Science.
I am deeply saddened by the current state most humans are living in - stress, anxiety, grief, apathy, fear, diseases becoming the norm, the list goes on. My goal is to engage with my local community through various means to finally find my greater purpose in this world. The past 40 years have brought me to many places and to experience many things but ultimately, I'm looking to put down roots and really understand the meaning of community. Won't you help me in my search?
*And, yes, those are baby snapping turtles we saved and let go into the nearby pond.
Every creature has a purpose and deserves to share this great land we call home.
Every action you take has a consequence.
Choose wisely.

ALWAYS ASK WHY!
If that scares a business, you might want to rethink their transparency issues.

We believe that conscious communication is the first step to taking meaningful action and being able to regain happy, healthy lives!
Clean water, fresh air, education, safe affordable housing and health are basic human rights!
Let's take care of each other and subsequently the world.
We are here to go rediscover our roots.
We are here to encourage communication.
We are here to take action.
What do you wish was better where you live?
What are you proud of that your community has accomplished?
Talk to your neighbors, talk to your friends, talk to a stranger, talk to us!
We may come from different places and perspectives but we all deserve to be heard.
We may come from different places and perspectives but we all deserve to be heard.
Tell us your story! What interests you lately? What bothers you? Try to keep it on a positive note, but also we need to know the good and the bad to be able to empathize with each other - who is doing things to make change in your local community, is it you? Nominate your local small business or activist making a difference in your community to be featured on the site!
