Water can teach us a lot about change and transformation- something we often resist as humans.
Speaking with the talented Author and Founder of Ripple Press, LLC, Jayshree L Patel gave me so much insight on how water and nature can truly be one of our greatest teachers.
If you have ever felt "lost" or "stuck" on your journey, this is a must listen episode.
Jayshree will inspire and remind you that wherever you are on your path-you can utilize water and nature to "trust" the process.
About the Guest and Author:
Jayshree is inspired to share her ideas on how nature teaches us to live joyfully
and to trust the journey. Her debut, award winning children’s picture book, One
Drop, Endless Ripples, explores the limitless lessons we can all learn through
nature.
With her first book project, Jayshree has transformed her life from public service in New Zealand to author, art director, and businesswoman in the USA. Jayshree is the Founder of Ripple Press LLC an independent publishing company. She loves doing school author visits and is available for speaking engagements.
As a mother, Jayshree’s parenting, and life transformation began when her boys attended an early childhood Montessori school which offered her a new perspective on how children thrive. As an active member of the school board, she learned that children learn best when they feel safe and connected, when they feel joyful, and when they follow their curiosity. This is often best achieved when they are out in nature, learning holistically. In fact, she sees we can all benefit from being more connected with nature instead of our busy, tech-filled lives filled with stuff and endless to-do lists.
“Why water? Water is a dominant part of the landscape where I grew up in New Zealand -streams,
rivers, lakes and ocean are never far away, even if you live in the city. Water fascinates me because it is so translucent and yet so powerful. It continually transforms itself; it adapts to changing conditions and it transforms the environment it is a part of. I can’t help wondering that if we could all be like water, maybe the world would be a better place.”
She plans to inspire children and parents through her books. Through speaking, storytelling and
collaboration, she plans to make an impact on all the things she cares about: families, children, the
environment, and creating a more connected and sustainable world for future generations.
