Practice-Change:
Work alongside your peers creating an economy that serves life
Build the skills to maintain momentum and do ground-breaking work with clarity, courage, and community.
Your job description doesen’t align with a life-serving economy. Every time you step towards redefining your role, someone inserts business-as-usual metrics to justify why work regeneratively isn’t realistic.
You park your positive impact dreams outside your office door. The status quo dictates what you’re allowed to do. You pick your battles and soldier on because your credibility and livelihood are at stake — and the alternatives could be even worse.
You stack your habits with self-care and positivity so you can recharge and face another day. But you know there’s a systemic layer that isn’t going to yoga itself away. You’re searching up eco-retreats while a deeper knowing tugs at your soul.
You’re looking for a pathway for your work to serve a different purpose.
Turn overwhelm and isolation into a weekly change practice
You see what isn't working and feel responsibility to use your leverage to keep moving.
But what should you prioritize on your path towards change? That's where Practice-Change comes in.
A 12-week program to get clear on how to create real positive change through your work.

Testimonials
Practice Change was an eye-opener. It brought needed focus to my change efforts, weekly discipline, and clearer goals. Lorraine is a master coach. This is a finishing school for change agents.
Practice-Change is especially powerful for people holding real complexity in a world of deep upheaval. I often felt pulled by competing and urgent calls to action, unsure of my place or next step. Through Practice-Change, I've been able to explore my relationships to wellbeing, work, and system change at the same time, without needing to simplify or separate them.
The Practice-Change methodology helped me turn a swirl of desire and ideas into a more clear, grounded path. It gave me structure to empower my right to dream and softened the anxiety that often comes with wanting to create change. The approach is both practical and deeply human — exactly what sustainability professionals need when the weight of the world feels overwhelming
I'm grateful for the community and the thoughtful way Lorraine guides the process. The method encourages reflection and action in a way that feels both supportive and challenging. I would recommend it to anyone looking to shift perspectives and engage more deeply with their work.
For anyone feeling unsettled or unclear about their role in these shifting times, or sensing a desire to move from churn to meaningful change, Practice-Change is an essential waystop. Being challenged to embody my desired future-state, and then to articulate that as felt experience in the present, was empowering, scary, and delicious. The experience is, quite simply, pure soulcraft.
The territory most of us find ourselves in has no roadmap. So coming up with a way to break down how we’re going to bring change to life and make it feasible week by week is a great motivator and path-builder to real change.

Lorraine Smith
After two decades working alongside leaders and well-meaning teams, I saw a clear pattern: what’s needed is a deeper shift in how our economic systems work, and we have permission to go ahead and create that shift the moment we choose.
Practice-Change is a simple method I use myself to keep moving towards change that matters. I share it to help others find the clarity, courage, and accountability to act on what they know.
