Welcome to Living in Balance
Sustainability is more than a cause, initiative or policy. It’s about people. We aim to create a space where people can create a dialogue about what sustainability means to them and what it looks like in everyday life. We believe we can shape tomorrow by sharing how sustainability is at work in our communities today.
"At a young age, growing up in Guatemala, my parents taught me to be mindful with how I interact with nature. I carry that spirit with me in my work today and share those early practices with my community." - Mario Sierra Garcia
Soul-Powered Communities
Living in Balance is a community-driven dialogue that seeks to define sustainability through the people living it out every day. We want to share what we call sustainability has, in fact, been the historical and cultural foundation of many diverse cultures in community–we exist to amplify that foundation. Living in Balance is looking to the past, present, and future to show sustainability in a new spectrum.
