My Story

Welcome! My name is Annette, and I’m here as a seed planter and guide, helping others walk through the gate into their next chapter.
I see life as a journey of transformation, where we’re always standing at the edge of possibility. Just beyond the gate lies a more connected, grounded, and regenerative way of being — one filled with peace, healing, and abundance.
My own journey began with a deep longing for freedom and a more intentional life in harmony with nature. I felt a powerful pull toward something new. In my mind, I envisioned a gate — a symbol of transition. I couldn’t yet see what was ahead, but I knew I was meant to walk through it into the meadow and forest of possibility beyond.
Now, I support others who feel that same calling. Through educational permaculture designs, transformative courses, and one-on-one mentoring for permaculture diploma apprentices, I guide people to reconnect with the Earth, with community, and with themselves. My approach is rooted in compassion, curiosity, and honoring your unique place in the landscape of life.
This space is for anyone seeking a life of greater intention — one in rhythm with nature, filled with wonder, and alive with potential.
What awaits you through your gate?
