Why Liberatory Living?

Cultivating the freedom we desire happens each day, in each moment.

It’s how we breathe.

How we feed ourselves.

How we care for self, others, home, Earth.

How we pay attention to our impact on all beings.

Together, let’s

• slow down

• become attuned to nature and our bodies

• live simply

• impact more personal and collective freedom.

• realize mindful interdependence

I acknowledge that I live and work in and with the land of so-called Gilbert, AZ, traditional Akimel O’odham territory and so-called Ridgway, CO, traditional Ute territory.

Welcome, it’s so nice to meet you!

I’m Anne Williams-—writer, poet, ecotherapist, sun-goddess at heart, inviter of warmth and light, minimalist, meditator, Aunt Anne to two amazing nephews and three phenomenal nieces, fur-baby spoiler, plant food and tea lover. I’m a white, cis, middle-class woman. I acknowledge the unearned privilege these aspects of my identity afford me and work to use my privilege for good. My pronouns are she/her.

Through my own liberatory journey, I’ve learned that transformation happens in our everyday practices, just as sun shows up each morning to transform darkness into light.

I believe in poetry, music, meditation, nature, interdependent relationships, as medicine. Medicine for the modern maladies of overconsumption, technology addiction, excessive work and social inequities driven by colonial, capitalist, white supremacy systems.

You’ll find my work weaving together pleasure, playfulness, tenderness, truth, justice, wildness, wisdom and anti-oppression frameworks.

“Let’s go get free and love each other every step of the way.”
