Hello. I'm Kim Jordan.
I create a safe, supportive space for individuals and small groups to express and explore their deeply held concerns about climate change.
If you're reading this site, you care about the living Earth community, and you're paying attention to the climate crisis. So, you may be understandably struggling with anxiety, wondering what you can do that will make a difference, or fixated in outrage at the current rollback of climate progress. You may be experiencing climate injustice, recuperating from a climate event, or worrying about future generations. You may be an experienced climate advocate giving more of yourself in service than is personally sustainable, and if so, you may be tracking climate data without taking time to process the emotions that data evokes.
​
Whatever brings you to climate conscious coaching, we'll have empowering conversations that honor your felt experience. When we allow ourselves to bring deep feelings into big conversations, we nurture resilience, and meaningful, life-affirming insight and action emerge organically.
Empower your love for the
living Earth community

Why Climate Conscious Coaching?
Resonance
Compassionate, curious questions around the topic of climate change can reveal your strengths, interests, and spheres of influence. Connecting to yourself in these ways can allow you to clarify your most personally meaningful contribution toward a particular solution. It's a relief to discover your niche. That’s resonance. It allows you to do what you do best and trust others to do the same.
Emotional Reslience
Devoting time to your well-being, relationships, and other valued aspects of your life is essential to nurturing personal and, therefore, collective resilience. Climate Conscious Coaching can help you design, commit to, and enjoy a healthy life balance while affecting positive change.
Ecological & Social Resilience
Climate conscious coaching can also help us nurture social-ecological resilience. Resilience in this sense is the capacity to reflect on and adjust our ways of being and doing in response to climate change and climate injustice. This type of resilience can look like relationship-building, community gardening, community-preparedness, organized skill-sharing, equitable solutions, honoring indigenous wisdom, eco-artivism, slow movements, gift economies, social entrepreneurship, rewilding landscapes, low-impact households, and more.
Empowerment
A lack of emotional processing is a huge missing piece in the climate solutions and preparedness equation. It’s huge because unprocessed emotions can obscure our clarity, freeze our passion, and prevent us from trusting ourselves and each other.
Processing emotions evoked by climate change with a deep listener is a good first step to empowerment. What might be possible if more of us orient to the climate challenge in an empowering way?
Presence
Open-ended questions are the basis of climate coaching conversations. These questions can evoke deep self-reflection and moments of Presence-filled silence. These moments of silence are transformational. To quote living systems researcher Nora Bateson, "The highest potential for change sits in places without words." I'd be honored to share some of these moments with you. Claim your free sample session by clicking below.
Kim is one of the kindest, most insightful individuals I've ever met. I've witnessed her ability to create a welcoming, safe space for deep conversations and bring light to the darkest of times.
With her commitment to helping people awaken to their inherent gifts and purpose,
and her devotion to helping people discover a positive relationship with our planet,
I am overjoyed about her serving as a climate conscious coach at this crucial time.
