Hi!
I'm Karina Miotto, a woman who, so committed to doing her part for a better world, organically became a reference. I've organized two TEDx events in Pará, I was sponsored and trained by TED during two international TED conferences, and my work has been cited in academic papers and books inside and outside Brazil, gaining international recognition. This extreme commitment led me to experience severe burnout loaded with trauma in 2012. This condition forced me to pause and drastically slow down what, until then, was my primary motivation in life: caring for the Amazon Rainforest and protecting it through environmental journalism.
Over 11 years of transition and recovery, I remained active, seeking new, more inspiring and loving communication paths. I specialized in the environmental philosophy of Deep Ecology, received coaching training from expert Paula Abreu, was invited by Satish Kumar to study a master's in Holistic Science at Schumacher College, England having Stephan Harding as my supervisor, and concluded a training in The Work That Reconnects in California with Joanna Macy.
I founded the Amazon Reconnection movement, gave lectures and classes about my experiences as changemaker in the rainforest in five countries, and made Australia my home for five years. There, I worked as a coach, studied with John Seed, supported agents of change, participated in peaceful activist actions, learned a lot from indigenous peoples, worked to protect the Daintree, the oldest forest on Earth and led an university project to unite a community around mitigating climate change in the Australian Alps through a methodology I developed based on Deep Ecology, deep listening and deep connecting. Most importantly, throughout this decade, I delved not only into the different continents of Gaia but into my emotions and spirituality with the support of shamans, therapists, and powerful healers to fully recover myself.
I sought strategies to heal at the pace my body, emotions, and mind allowed. It happened. I am now back in full power, working for the planet. However, my focus has expanded a bit: it's also on people—those who strive to create "the most beautiful world our hearts know is possible".
Today, my greater calling is to use all my experience to care for those who care. To support visionary changemakers, people who know the future can be much better because they have the vision, passion, strategy, and determination to materialize a new, absolutely necessary reality.
Thanks :)
Individual and group mentoring
Self-Transformation Journeys
Deep dives into yourself with transformative self-knowledge practices to generate self-love, connection with your spirituality, and more fluidity and lightness in your path. Designed for you to live your truth by looking inside lovingly. For those who feel lost, in need of changes, clarity about their service, and lacking courage to take the first step.
“Choose Your Life” Coaching
It focuses on high performance, meaning excellent productivity in personal and professional life as a result of balance in various different aspects of life – from relationships to prosperity, health, and planning ability. This method results in wellbeing and projects coming to life.
Speaker Coaching
Methodology that prepares you to become an excellent spokesperson for your ideas. Based on four pillars: TED's personal training I received, storytelling, self-knowledge, and my experience as a speaker in over five countries. A unique process with me – after it, you'll be able to prepare your own speeches confidently for the rest of your life.
Self-knowledge trips to the Amazon
In the heart of the mother forest, the Amazon, you will hear the voice of your soul through Gaia's voice. You will awaken to the call of your heart through experiences in self-knowledge and Deep Ecology that lead to internal reconnection, receptivity, presence, surrender, and trust in nature's potent wisdom. You will feel belonging, affection, freedom, clarity, peace, and may find answers to your deepest questions.
All trips are to the state of Amazonas, with accommodation in jungle hotels or traditional communities. In addition to personalized experiences, they include forest activities in a differentiated way: trails, animal watching, birdwatching, sunrise and sunset, boat outings during the day and night take on new dimensions with Amazon Reconnection – in Portuguese, “Reconexão Amazônia”.
Know yourself, strengthen yourself, empower yourself, become flexible. Be enchanted.
After knowing the Amazon, your worldview will never be the same.
