Becoming a Land Steward with Belinda Liu
What does it mean to be a steward of land - not just taking responsibility for its preservation but also listening to the wisdom it offers? On today's episode, I discuss this topic with Belinda Liu, a nature-inspired visionary; co-creator of Gratitude Blooming, a movement to explore the deep connections between nature and culture; and co-founder of Hestia Retreat Center, located near Mt. Shasta, California.
On the latest episode we discuss:
- Belinda's spiritual background and how her early experiences as a child of Taiwanese immigrants influenced and shaped her understanding of the world.
- The moment when the Divine Mother, in the form of sacred land, first made her presence known.
- Belinda's journey from the world of education to tech entrepreneurship, and ultimately to land stewardship.
- What it means to surrender to bigger possibilities for our lives, even if those possibilities aren't fully clear.
- How to move into more intimate relationship with the land that currently supports you.

The Call of the Fire: A 6 Month Transformational Leadership Program for Women
The Call of the Fire is an intimate, 6-month group coaching program designed to help you experience your true power at a deeper level than you’ve ever known before. While patriarchal systems of domination have taught us that power is about control, hierarchy and the hoarding of resources, through The Call of the Fire you’ll learn that there’s a different, older, more time-tested way to understand and employ power. Once we know this, there’s no turning back. Rooted in the rich, yet largely hidden herstorical and mythological record of the ancient feminine, The Call of the Fire will introduce you to the secret roots of female power we all have encoded deep within us. And via group coaching, experiential exercises and more, help you access these roots to live your fullest, most unfettered life. The program begins with a 5-day, 4-night kick-off retreat on the Big Island of Hawaii October 15-19, 2025. For the following six months, we'll meet twice monthly via Zoom to explore 6 specific aspects of female power; practice accessing and embodying this power in your own life; and drop into deep community with your fellow sister seekers. You’ll also have access to tons of additional learning resources and the opportunity to meet 1:1 with me to clarify your goals and work on specific areas you may need support on.
