In 2021, over $100 billion was spent on the pet industry in the U.S. alone. While that figure includes pets of all kinds, dogs make up the majority of pet ownership in the U.S. with 48 million households caring for a four-legged friend. While spending on dogs continues to climb with each passing year, more and more cities have also grown in their dog-friendliness, even allowing patrons to enjoy the company of their dogs while they dine or shop.

Hello Eric
This newsletter is coming a bit earlier because we have some wonderful news to share with you. As well as more free resources and opportunities.
On Thursday 28 July, I was awarded overall winner of the 2022 Africa's Most Respected CEOs Awards in the category "Human Development," by The Business Executive in collaboration with the Economic Development Board Mauritius, and their technical partners the International Business Council Africa, African Chamber for Trade, African Union, and African Business Council. The award acknowledges CEOs' contributions to the attainment of SDGs by African States.
As CEO of EARTHwise Centre, I've dedicated this Award to the Children of the Earth since they are the inspiration for all that I do, and the reason why we founded EARTHwise Centre. I personally feel that this award comes as a special blessing of the African ancestors, for my work over many years in the protection of an important maroon heritage and legend in Mauritius.
To put this into context, from 2007-2016 I worked pro bono with local slave and maroon descendants in Mauritius to help protect their cultural heritage and a sacred mountain called Le Morne Mountain. In the early 19th Century, Mauritius became known as an important "stopover" in the eastern slave trade, due to the bravery of a large group of maroons who managed to escape slavery from the base of Le Morne Mountain. Their heroic actions of resistance became know around the world as "The Maroon Republic," which inspired similar maroon movements in other countries and regions.
A massacre of the maroons took place on the top of Le Morne Mountain, that was later made to look like a mass-suicide. All this heritage work led to Le Morne Mountain becoming an UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2008. Through this article, you can learn about the 'behind the scenes stories' of what really happened. For those who've read this article before, please note that it's been thoroughly updated today! I've now added more photos and other important elements to the story that I had not shared in public before.
Interestingly, a few days before receiving my African CEO Award, during the July online group coaching session, I shared for the first time some of my own experiences of this challenging work, which at times came with great risks for my stay in Mauritius. During this session, I also shared how I worked with the pushback situations and domination dynamics that caused so much harm to so many people. This coaching session is now available on-demand here.
I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank you, and all of our partners, for being part of our EARTHwise community and supporting our work. We may be small in numbers, but we are big in our hearts and actions!!
JOIN THE NEXT GROUP COACHING, TUESDAY 30 AUGUST
The next online group coaching session takes place on Tuesday, August 30 at 7.30am Pacific Time (recording is sent after the session). This session includes:
- A teaching & practice for (further) developing your intuition and working with the Key of Cosmic communication.
- You'll learn how to explore intuition as a form of direct Cosmic communication from deeper orders of Consciousness that are not bound by time and space.
- The Cosmic Key of Communication features in The Quest of Rose, and helps you to realize how your state of consciousness influences the state of information that you communicate (whether you communicate from duality or unity).
- Q & A for sharing your questions and experiences.
As a little gift, I've included here a very effective practice that I shared during the July coaching session for clearing restrictive energies and manifesting your essence. This also gives you a taste of what you can expect during these monthly sessions. I've named this practice The Cosmic Vacuum Cleaner! :-))
FREE EVENTS AND RESOURCES
- The yearly r3.0 Conference is offered for free this year on 6-7 September, and combines both online and in-person events. The theme for the conference is "Transcending Incrementalism - from ESG to System Value Creation." I've contributed twice as a speaker (in 2020 and 2021), and am delighted to see the amazing line-up of speakers they have for this year. CLICK HERE to register your free seat.
- My interview for "A Thrivable Future" podcast on all matters of systems change hosted by Rebecca Deer from THRIVE, is now also available in AUDIO.
- For my Dutch friends, you can now listen to this inspiring conversation in Dutch between me and Ron van Es for an additional episode of his Podcast "De Tussenruimte." Ron came to my parent's place in the Netherlands to record this during my trip there in June.
- This interview for MISSION: EVOLUTION Radio and TV is in English. Host Gwilda Wiyaka interviewed me to explore what our human and future human potential means when faced with the challenges of social unrest, polarization, climate change, a pandemic, mass shootings and war. She asked me, "Are we evolving into a more integrated loving species or are we on the edge of annihilation? How can we better our chances for evolution while avoiding extinction? What can any one individual do to make a difference during such challenging times?"
I'll be in touch again in a couple of weeks to let you know how you can order the Audiobook of Return of the Avatars, which launches on August 11 and has been masterfully narrated by Ariane Barnes.
For our German friends, you can now order the German version of The Quest of Rose, titled Die Reise der Rose as paperback and ebook - on Amazon (and many other platforms) thanks to the brilliant translation by Dr. Dagmar Wolff. Dagmar is also a member of our EARTHwise Team.
In my next email I'll also let you know how you can order the first episode of Messages from Mother Earth, which is a truly unique collaboration between me and award-winning composer Alan Howarth, which has been years in the making. This is the narrated version of my book Love Letters from Mother Earth with consciousness altering soundtracks by Alan in the frequency of Mother Earth.
I'll be on a brief sabbatical for the coming month, to work on my next book. In case you're not getting any replies from me, you'll know why! My next book serves as an essential guidebook for inner and outer Systems Change, based on my Ph.D. dissertation and decades of work in human development and systemic transformation.
Thank you for being part of our community!
With Love,
Founder & CEO of EARTHwise Centre
Co-Author of the Future Humans Trilogy, Co-Author & Co-Editor of The New Paradigm in Politics, Author of Love Letters from Mother Earth
