United in generating conscious change
Never believe that a few caring people can't change the world. For indeed that's all who ever have.

- integrative and heart-centered practices,
- Earth-honoring spirituality,
- and ancestral Andean Mystical Wisdom traditions.
Founder
“I believe that the world is going to change because we as individual change, not because we change things outwardly.
I believe that living and leading from the consciousness of love is the shift we have to make.
Connecting with ourselves, our hearts, and with Mother Nature is what evokes the desire for genuine change and sincere right action.”

Giving
Caring for people, planet and conscious evolution of humankind
Claudia’s love for humanity and nature is mirrored in her interest and contribution to various social initiatives and NGOs for the last fifteen years with a focus on children, sustainable development, environment and climate education, and lately also cultural indigenous preservation.
Her volunteering and pro-bono work helped to broaden her horizon in different environments by being exposed to different realities.
These experiences helped her grow both personally and professionally and became part of her way of looking at the world.
Over the years she assisted:
- Her son’s school with workshops for school board and parents to raise awareness for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and a Plant-for-the-Planet Academy for students to become Climate Justice Ambassadors.
- She supported Hogar San Pedro in Peru, a medical and convalescence center with cloth collection and a personal visit of the institution and see the tremendous work being done.
- Moreover, she helped a community of interest for adoption families, and a refugee network with marketing and communications in her resident community, and supports a yearly cloth collection for a water project in Peru.
Caudia has been involved in a children’s sponsorship programme for over a decade with Plan International, a development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls.
- She visited her sponsored child several times in Lima, Peru. Her insight report of one of her visits to the child’s community can be accessed here.
In 2022 during a trip in Peru, she:
- Visited her new sponsor child and the community in Iquitos, located in the remote Amazon area of Peru. The travel report can be accessed here.
- Went to the remote indigenous community of the Q’ero in the high Andes. They are widely known as the last living direct descendants of the Incas. It was like going back in time. Poverty is omnipresent. Q’ero villagers live in 4200 – 4600 meters above sea level with very rough conditions with usually a lot of rain, fog and snow. This visit had a strong impact on her. She wrote about her experiences in this blog here.
If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.
