I’m Eve

I write books about you, which is much easier than writing a page about me.

But here goes.

For fifteen years, I built Baba+Boo, a business that helped reduce nappy waste. It was successful, useful and full of heart. I’m incredibly proud of it.

But underneath the nappies and the community, I was always interested in the same thing.

How we live. What we value. What we build. What we pass on. The culture we create around the things we care about.

I have always been curious about the world and the people in it. I read to understand. I listen carefully. I write to make sense of things. I notice the small things people reveal when they talk about what matters to them.

Over the years, I have learned that I can often see what people are growing towards before they fully see it themselves.

I pay attention to what makes people come alive. The spark. The thread. The thing they keep coming back to.

Astrology gave me a language for that.

A birth chart is not just your sun sign. It is a picture of the sky at the moment you were born, full of signs, planets and houses. I use it to understand your gifts, your direction and what you are here to create.

For a while, I worried about being judged for using astrology.

But the more I worked with birth charts, the more useful they became.

So I stopped worrying about that.

Now I think I'm still in the waste prevention business, just a different kind.

The kind you can’t see.

I help people bring their gifts to life.

The gifts that get buried under responsibility. The potential that keeps tapping at the window while life gets on with being life.

I know that feeling from the inside.

Stars+Soil grew from that place. From the suspicion that there was more in me wanting to grow and that I probably wasn't the only one.

I think the best work often begins with the thing we need ourselves.

Stars+Soil is mine.
