Inner Biomimicry,
a practice of relationships .
A practice exploring how people can stay in relationship with themselves, others, and the natural world while working within systems that often pull them away from it.
Lichens Project helps individuals and teams redesign how they work by learning from living systems.
I work with individuals and small teams, often in climate and sustainability fields, who are experiencing forms of exhaustion, disconnection, or quiet overwhelm in the way things are.
Not as something to fix within the person, but as something that emerges from how work and environments are currently shaped.
I work with organisations and professionals to:
Identify where energy is leaking
understand how people are actually wired
redesign work patterns for sustainability
This is applied biomimicry at the level of behaviour, teams, and organisational rhythm.
The work takes place through conversations, workshops, and longer processes.
This approach is informed by biomimicry and by an ongoing inquiry into what it means to understand ourselves as living systems, not just thinking ones.
It begins by noticing how someone is actually functioning,
in their body, their attention, their way of relating,
and slowly exploring what might shift if those patterns were allowed to reorganise in a more life-aligned way.
Some of these experiences have naturally evolved into longer forms of work, including a first small cohort of one-to-one processes.
Over the past years, this practice has been explored across different contexts, from small-group sessions to collaborations with organisations such as B4C in Brisbane, and, more recently, within climate-related events such as Padova Climate Action Week.
