Can you help me warm up my email?The Thank you page will make it worth it...

Warming up the email helps my emails not land in spam. It teaches the algorithm that I am a person, not a robot sending gobs of unsolicited emails... and that people may actually want to read what I write to them.

My name is Natalie Renee.

I am Jafar to your Aladdin, but not evil.

I am a river rat. A PhD field scientist studying the rest of life.

An architect of living systems.

An intellectual sparring partner.

I connect dots other people miss

The Natalie Experience

Ellen Wohl, Ph.D.

University Distinguished Professor & internationally renowned and decorated river scientist

“You are one of the most intellectually creative [people] I have ever worked with. I have a quote from E.O. Wilson in my office: ‘The ideal scientist thinks like a poet and only later works like a bookkeeper.’ I think that is a fitting description of you.”

Cora Bird, N.D.

Creator of Lady Boner Love Drops

“You are such a part of my origin story. You have this ability to see the whole way—to see the map. It’s like precision: yes, no, this way. That’s what it felt like when I got that clarity after being with you after that one conversation. It’s very precise and very clear and not fucking around. Love that about you.”

Katya Nova

Modern Matriarch

“What's really unique about you is… you can't help creating stunning art anywhere you go. Like, if your attention turns to anything, you create art with it. But you also have this lens that is deeply strategic, scientific, and intellectual. I have never seen a combination like that.

...you have such a sharp wit. That you could say one thing, and all of a sudden, everyone is howling, and, like, everyone can be themselves. Truly, you have that impact on… a group of people, just by being yourself.”

Anastasia Alder

Program & Product Leader, former Amazon Senior Program Manager

Every year, I reread your essay on the three legs of the stool and do a self-assessment for what I want to work on for the season."

Stephanie Seliga-Soulseed

Head of Heartsong Living Arts, a waldorf-inspired school

"I adore your vulnerability that is not cloaked in shame. Not afraid to go first and admit what is going wrong, the ability to tell it how it is.

Teigha Mondragon

My Healthy Home Chef

“I'd follow you off a cliff. You set a zone of safety without any harsh judgement which is so rare."

Amber Seitz

Internal Systems Engineer for mission-driven organizations

“Natalie, I have never met anyone who thinks as fast as you do.”

Deborah Kane

Founder, GoCamp & RallyCrew; former National Director, USDA Farm to School Program

“I entered the course thinking I'd learn about paddling technique… What I most derived was a better sense of the mental barriers. Now, I'm feeling pretty unstoppable. What a gift."

Bree Wilder

Mother of 5, Goddess on a pole

The more time that I spend around you, the more I'm like, oh my god, what the fuck. You're just so amazing and full of surprises.”

What are you working on? What are you grappling with? Where do you think my brain could be useful to you? Knock and tell me. I might answer.

We'll use the power of near sight to stop pinballing off the rocks you don't want to hit.

the power of far sight to make sure you are even in the right river.

the power of mid sight to find your line to the next horizon (and lay some treats along the way).
