Fall, 2022 We are piloting a playful and engaging 5-session program. Participants explore skills in Hearing others -- empathy, building shared values to increase trust -- as well as Being Heard -- developing authentic presence skills to convey your beliefs. By the end of the program, participants have practice behaviors to support them in discussing Climate Change…or any topic!

We start a new a playful and engaging 6-session program in September 2023. Participants explore skills in Hearing others -- empathy, building shared values to increase trust -- as well as Being Heard -- developing authentic presence skills to convey your beliefs. Though there are many resources that teach you how to frame your climate messages, there are few programs that provide opportunities to build skills and practice them in a supportive, low-stakes environment. By the end of the program, participants have learned and practiced behaviors they can quickly and smoothly apply to conversations with colleagues, clients, and family about Climate Change…or any topic! Registration is open now!

Climate Conservations is an opportunity to hone your skills to connect with people from a variety of backgrounds and perspectives. While this training is focusing on climate change, the skills you will develop are transferrable to challenging conversations with anyone in your professional, volunteer, and personal networks. Please note this course focuses on one-on-one conversations about climate change and is not for those seeking basic information about climate change. https://yesandnature.com/storycircles daily 0.75 2022-09-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61c3651274316a70f5fd2cf5/a1af338f-5f81-46bc-bc3f-a3cfd134f283/IMG_2494.JPG Story Circles - What Happens in A Story Circle? Story Circles allow people to do what they do best — share stories! The basic steps are straightforward: We align around a theme There’s a warm up activity around story telling We experience a guided reflection In a loosely structured session, participants take turns sharing stories on the topic at hand We evaluate the themes, commonalities and insights together https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61c3651274316a70f5fd2cf5/566336c7-a90b-4975-9a2f-3b0d944b9be1/Blog+Cover+--+Cee+Change.png Story Circles - What’s a Story Circle? Story circles are a simple approach to facilitating a collective storytelling framework that brings people together to share personal stories around a common theme. It has been used by the Unesco as a method for developing intercultural competencies. Similarly, they have been used for community development and organizing, student leadership development, and civic engagement. So…can story circles help volunteer informal educators? That’s what we’re aiming to explore this fall through a series of pilot story circles with Volunteers at Seattle’s Woodland Park Zoo. Zoo volunteers already have a lot of experience and training about how to engage the public in conversations about climate and conservation. We’ll be testing the story circle format to see how well it supports these volunteers in furthering their community of practice and development of best practices. https://yesandnature.com/contact-us daily 0.75 2025-08-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61c3651274316a70f5fd2cf5/8a6197de-a997-4daa-b6d4-9750cf1c12c6/Sexy+suzy+high+quality.jpg https://yesandnature.com/news-1-1 daily 0.75 2024-02-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61c3651274316a70f5fd2cf5/ed15538a-162c-42a6-9c9e-de07c10f86ad/AINx+Graphic.JPG https://yesandnature.com/yesandnature daily 0.75 2025-08-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61c3651274316a70f5fd2cf5/ed15538a-162c-42a6-9c9e-de07c10f86ad/AINx+Graphic.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61c3651274316a70f5fd2cf5/5d4d4336-5048-4701-85ae-3a46d0f19e22/bobbi-block.jpg Meet Yes and Nature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61c3651274316a70f5fd2cf5/9d9d423d-faf2-4407-a640-e9728dc0552c/Top+big+smile+STRONG_OUTCOMES+045.jpg Meet Yes and Nature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61c3651274316a70f5fd2cf5/1645656350337-SXHH3FQGT5BDRI857CAL/Lisa+Headshot+2018.png Meet Yes and Nature https://yesandnature.com/climate-1 daily 0.75 2025-08-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61c3651274316a70f5fd2cf5/fb365dda-be6f-4aa6-91c8-612554f21584/Screen+Shot+2025-05-21+at+7.12.56+PM.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61c3651274316a70f5fd2cf5/901b3dde-52b0-4ea0-9fc7-84665b94e3a4/Screen+Shot+2025-05-21+at+5.58.05+PM.png Climate Conversations (Copy) - Is this for me?
