Darby also offers workshops and conversational speeches on her book Here You Begin (see her blog on the topic), and speeches on her recent works, including Earth:Sacred/Possession and creating a Culture of Care. She also speaks on what's new in the issues of environment and nature which she covers in her journalism career, from the return of the wolf to African wilderness, to the environment as security. She is a heart-felt, genuine story-teller, weaving behind-the-scenes intelligence with gentle humor based on her 25-years as an international journalist covering international politics and the environment, from Africa to Alaska, Russia to the Wild West. Whether speaking on the writing process or international policy, her speeches offer wit, adventure, and heart-touching lessons which will entertain and connect your conferees to the issues at hand.
