On my last day, I felt honored to add my name to the long list of creators and thought leaders who have passed through Mesa Refuge.
Being in such a spacious and picturesque environment gave me the quiet and psychic space to reflect, recharge, and allow ideas to find me—ideas that later rooted themselves in the work.
In the midst of seismic change, the time and space to think expansively is a true gift.
Mesa Refuge played a critical role in my transition from nonprofit executive to author—helping me find my voice when I needed it most. Mesa’s grassroots orientation makes it a rare jewel among residencies.
