Meet Dawni Pappas

I developed Dawni Pappas Consulting & Nature's Embrace to provide services that reconnect you with your life’s vision and the intelligence of nature. We can tap into the energies of nature to transform and inspire creativity and foster meaningful connections !
What is calling?
I offer a vibrant array of services that will bring you back to your own Nature and Nature back to you.
Reconnect, Renew, and Thrive
Guided by a deep love for nature and their wisdom, I use my passion for helping others find theirs.
I’ve created a consultancy dedicated to helping individuals and teams reconnect with the beauty, wisdom, and authenticity of the natural world—and themselves.
As a nature guide, educator, spiritual practitioner, mentor, and event coordinator, I co-create sacred spaces where you can tap into the transformative power of nature. These spaces are designed to help you rediscover your place in the web of life, find balance, and live with greater authenticity.
Through heartfelt support, practical tools, and profound insights, I guide you toward meaningful connections that inspire clarity, creativity, and renewal. Whether you’re seeking personal healing, team-building experiences, or spiritual growth, I am here to walk alongside you.
I am based out of the Amah Mutsun Tribal Band’s traditional territory—Popeloutchom, the unceded land of the Awaswas-speaking people, now known as Santa Cruz, California—my work is deeply rooted in honoring the land and fostering harmony between people and nature.
Let’s reconnect with the world around us and the wisdom within
