Hello Reader

I’ve been receiving some amazing feedback on my YouTube videos and emails about the Haumea Ecoversity launch, so I wanted to address a few common questions and share an update about today’s live Zoom call.
​

• “Thank you for describing Ecoliteracy… brilliant, Cathy!”
• “Go Earth Charter! Could it really address war and conflict?”
• “How much time do I need to join Haumea Ecoversity?”
• “I’m struggling daily to align my life with my values… can your community help?”

I’m so grateful for comments like these. They show how crucial ecoliteracy is right now, from nurturing our sense of belonging to creating an ecologically-conscious frame of mind in the face of today's intersecting environmental, social and political crises.

Problem 1:“I never realised ecoliteracy was such a big cultural shift—am I ready?”​
​Solution: Ecoliteracy indeed connects the micro with the macro, grounding us in our caring for Earth, each other, and all communities of life. It’s a journey, and our Haumea Ecoversity Community is here to guide and support you every step of the way.

Problem 2:“What about time commitment? I’m juggling a full-time creative practice.”​
​Solution: We’ve built our membership to be spacious and flexible—an estimated 2–4 hours a week is enough to make real progress. We host group live Salons every other Tuesday, with different learning pathways for beginners, intermediate, and advanced learners. You can dive deeper or just stay connected—your choice.

Problem 3:“I feel like there’s a silent majority struggling to align our lives with our values… can we form an eco-spiritual community?”​
​Solution:Yes! In fact, one of the biggest reasons we moved from one-off courses to a membership model was to foster ongoing connections. This is the place to find mutual support, mentorship, and collective inspiration—so none of us face these challenges alone.

​Storm / Live Call Update

• I’m planning to host a free LIVE Zoom call today, Sunday 5 Jan, at 7 pm (Irish/BST), 8 pm (EU), 2 pm (PST).
• However, a major storm has caused red/orange weather warnings and power outages across Ireland and the UK (including my home!). If the link doesn’t work at call time, it means we still have no power.
• In that case, I’ll send a message later today to postpone the call to Monday at the same time and extend the sign-up window by another day to accommodate.

PPPS One follower asked yesterday if I would write her a letter for her art grant application to join Haumea Ecoversity for the year. I am happy to do this and have previously supplied letters to others who've been applying to arts act, agility and bursary awards. Just hit 'reply' to ask me about this.
