Farmers Maple Bloom Farm, Prince Edward Island, CanadaBusiness, Education, Holistic Life Context, Life Design, Life Design for Permaculture, One-on-One CoachingUPDATE 2020/02/20Catherine’s doing well. Through our work with you, we decided it was best for us to have our separate professional lives so we could enjoy our personal time together more easily, since tensions seemed to rise more easily when we spent day and night together. We’ve been getting along really well since then, she enjoys her work now, and we’re getting married in September.
Before we did this work with Javan, it seemed too daunting to include everything in our life that we wanted to move forward. We were both aware of things that needed improvement, but they were stuck up in our brains. Having it down on paper makes the conversation about us and the farm possible.Javan provided a framework for us to have an organized conversation with each other on a disorganized situation and it’s been fantastic. We wish it was something we had done years ago, but we just didn’t have the tools at the time. This holistic framework gives you a sense of the entire picture of your life, from work to finances to personal relationships and everything in between in our case, and it allowed us to juggle all this in a calm and collected, but thorough and methodical way that made it easy to approach and discuss one issue at a time until we were both on the same page.

Farmer - Grass Roots FarmBusiness, Client, Education, Life Design, Limiting Beliefs, One-on-One CoachingJavan’s innate ability to help others cut through the mystery and confusion of their life’s purpose is incredible. His process helps others generate a business plan that integrates their individual passions and skills, then directs that focused energy towards problems in the world that they were literally born to solve. For me, Javan has been a much needed voice of reason in my life. His insights around marketing, in particular, have given me the clarity I needed to create a marketing strategy that has me spending less time herding people, and more time herding cows.

PDC Student - South AfricaEducation, PDC StudentJavan, thank you very much for your input and sharing your journey and experience with us. This has been much more than a design course for me. It has opened my eyes and, for that, I am very grateful to everybody involved in putting this course together.

PDC Student from NetherlandsEducation, PDC StudentThanks Javan 🙂 you for your insights. I must say I have much self doubt and get very nervous at times, but this course and your feedback have helped me grow confident in my abilities. I have also signed up for a double helix workshop after what you said in the regional disaster and climate assessment. Thank you so much for all your time and effort!
