Meet Renée Marble
In this ever-changing moment of now, I can tell you that I am an entrepreneur, earthkeeper and elder. I am an empty-nester, single mom committed to living my “second act “ to the fullest. After five decades, I am giving myself permission to create anew, intent to overflow my heart with love and joy. Some days this process is exhilarating and guided by a childlike wonder and curiosity, and in other moments it is daring and daunting. As an ecosocial entrepreneur, my business, Mpower Ventures™, is guided by the intent to serve, with purpose, the greater good of our planet and her people.
The Mpower™ portfolio of services includes:
-
philanthropy consulting
-
impact investing
-
sustainable funding
-
CSR campaigns
-
ecoproject development
Mpower Ventures™
An ecosocial enterprise guided by the Mpowerment of people and planet. The ‘Dare to Do Good™’ services include consulting, fundraising, philanthropy and impact investing.
FeatherSun Foundation™
A nature camp for inner-city kids, land trust conservancy, grants giving and earth-centered education.
Wild Wisdom™
An ecoshamanic practice that merges deep ecology and core shamanism, and includes journeying, ceremony and sacred expeditions in nature.
Working with visionary entrepreneurs and nonprofit leaders ignites me and provides the opportunity to do well by doing good.
The devotion and love that I hold for our Earth Mother has led me to become an earthkeeper. This passion is expressed through the FeatherSun Foundation™, a philanthropic platform that inspires and nurtures a reverent relationship between humanity and nature. This interdependence fosters a deeper understanding of our earth and all living beings. FeatherSun™ initiatives encompass a nature camp for innercity kids, land trust conservancy, grants giving and earth-centered education including NatureChat™, a mobile app.
My elderhood is steeped in the desire to live authentic and wise, serving as a messenger and modern-day storyteller. This sharing of wisdoms will provide a roadmap of insights for today’s youth. The roots of ElderSpeak™ are intended to be an organic, evolving collection of interviews, videos, essays and quotes. This literary treasure of language from the heart will be offered online and in printed form. ElderSpeak™ will be available to high school students through their respective school’s English departments, and other outreach youth organizations. I believe in the healing power of words for the human spirit, today’s storytelling is intended to uplift and heal the spirits of both, Seniors and Youth.
If I have a mantra for life it is that I am ONE within the whole. You might be thinking, “… and, what exactly does that mean?” I believe that we are all connected and my thoughts, words and actions affect the whole. This oneness is like a spiral, an ever-evolving swirl of consciousness. Over the years, the spiral has become a guide for entering deep into my psyche and the unknown, and then extending far out into the Universe, revealing my place within all of creation. Once I became aware of this sacred symbol of renewal and rebirth, I began noticing spirals everywhere, especially in the natural world, from galaxies in the sky to diminutive shells at the beach. Journeying into me wells up a deep sense of gratitude and humility. I am more than human, and can’t possibly have all the answers. I’ve made mistakes, large and small, and hit my head on the proverbial wall more times than I can count. In the midst of living life and finding my way, I have discovered gratitude and grace for the abundant treasures of love, joy, peace, balance and harmony. Learning to trust the infinite cosmos has become a way of life, and from this overflowing spring, I walk in service.
I believe that T.S. Eliot said it best, “We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring, will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.” Thank you for visiting my home on the web and allowing me to share a spark of who I am, and who I am becoming.
May all your spiral encounters be transformative,
