Sieta Beckwith has worked for over 15 years in strategic communications roles in social enterprise, for-profit and non-profit organisations, assisting to discover, share and live the deeper mission and vision of the places she works. Through her work as Narrative Director at CERES, Sieta is using stories centred on universal human values, to articulate the potential power of bringing people together across divides to take action for the Earth. Inspired by the work of Emergence Magazine (US), since 2014 Sieta has been actively engaged in the emerging Spiritual Ecology movement, which seeks to explore what is the role of spirituality in social, economic, political and ecological change. She has found joy in bringing together small groups of humans from all ages and backgrounds to explore heart-centred practice, and learning to live from a place of love and compassion for all beings. Sieta also loves supporting millennials to creatively explore new ways of thinking and being together, in a time of significant challenge. Sieta was born on Noongar country but has made her home on Wurundjeri land, and loves to rockclimb, dance, weave baskets and have conversations with trees.

Claire Dunn is a writer, speaker, barefoot explorer, rewilding facilitator and founder of Nature’s Apprentice. Claire is passionate about human rewilding and believes that a reclaiming of our ecological selves and belonging is key to regenerating wildness on the planet. For the last 15 years, Claire has been facilitating individuals to dive deeply into the mysteries of nature and psyche through the pathways of deep nature connection, ancestral earth skills, deep ecology, ecopsychology, soulcentric nature-based practice, village building, dance, ceremony and contemporary wilderness rites-of-passage. Claire is the author of memoir My Year Without Matches, which tells the story of her year living wild. Her soon to be released memoir Rewilding the Urban Soul explores how we might embody wild consciousness within a modern city context. Claire lives in Melbourne where she lovingly tends her garden, community and her own wild heart.
