Consulting

---

 RHEA turns traditional sustainability consulting on its head. After working professionally for nearly 3 decades, one thing is clear: doing the “right” thing isn’t always the goal.

• Learning Institutions struggle to invest in sustainability when they are too busy fulfilling their primary mission of education.
• Government agency departments are often siloed and sometimes stifled by bureaucracy.
• Businesses fail to admit that their success often depends on externalizing problems for the sake of profit.  

Rebalancing the People-Planet-Profit equation cannot be achieved without Practice.  This requires a daily practice of authenticity, the implementation of best practices, and the commitment to cultivating a practice of inclusive, non-violent communication. 

Consulting Services Include

• Facilitation, Strategic Planning, Ideation Sessions
• Solid waste reduction and recycling solutions to meet California state laws; especially edible food recovery
• Culturally competent educational programming; project/place-based learning
• Green event coordination & materials management
• Green communications, marketing, and branding
• Post-COVID business transformation - from reactionary to resilience

In the 1990's businesses hoping to position themselves as "sustainable" or "green" often referred to the "Triple Bottom Line."  This term refers to business activities that take into account social, environmental and economic capital within a sustainable development framework.  The problem is, humanity has lost touch with its ecological and even spiritual origin.  In pursuit of profit, we've degraded our environment.  We've become so divisive as a society too.  

RHEA infuses each project with a foundational practice that balances the Triple Bottom Line well beyond measures of profitability or environmental preservation.  Daily practices, whether speaking about mindfulness with clients or best practices with businesses, are the key to a resilient, vibrant, healthy, equitable world.
