Tad's Team of Helping Hippies

Lindsay Meads:

Core Administrator

I’m a designer, creative thinker, and lover of all things nature. My background includes consulting in environmental geology, working for municipal government, and co-owning an ecological design business in Calgary, Canada for 10 years.

Travel, music, culture, and food fascinate me. I taught English in South Korea, completed a natural building internship in Thailand, and received my Permaculture Design Certificate in Cuba. I now spend part of the year working in the central highlands in Guanajuato, Mexico where you’ll find me working for MfH, learning Spanish, eating tacos, and volunteering to clean-up the river with community members.

Natt Forrest:

Marketing Coordinator & Production

I love yummy food, connecting with Nature, and having great conversations; those are the things that feed my soul. I completed my Ph.D. in Applied EcoPsychology in 2017 but have been weaving together my love of Yoga and Nature Connect for over 20 years with EcoYogaTherapy^TM.

I’m ecstatic to be part of the MfH community and working with the MfH team.

Lindsie Grey:

Membership Coordinator

Hi! I’m Lindsie. You’ll find me in the membership corner of the MfH world. I’m here to help you feel welcome and supported during your time here.

I consider myself a multi-passionate creative as I’ve lived many lives and dipped my toes into all sorts of careers. Before joining the MFH team, I spent 16 years as a wedding photographer. While I loved capturing beautiful moments, I adored the behind-the-scenes side of running the business: systems, strategy, marketing, customer experience, and making things work in a soulful way.

I’m a Canadian-born Aussie living in Baja, Mexico with my husband and our two dogs. I’m a nomad at heart, happiest high up in the mountains with a cup of tea in one hand and a dog on my lap. See you inside the Membership!

Chelsie Balderson:

Tour & Live Events Coordinator

Moved by music, art and community – I’m someone who enjoys what life offers. The beauty, the creativity and everything in between. I work as an event planner, meditation teacher and practitioner that has a passion for activating the space of your heart and transforming it into medicine. Translating your heart ~ one beat at a time. Often curious and ever learning, I let the world bring out my liberated wild.

Now, I’m bringing that same spark to Marketing for Hippies as the Tour and Live Events Coordinator—bringing our magic right to your door.

Rhya Merrell:

Social Media Coordinator

Hello, my name is Rhya! I’m happy and proud to be a part of the MFH team as the Social Media Coordinator. You know those posts you see from Marketing for Hippies in your feed and in stories? That’s where I come in. It’s been a joy to be able to bring Tad’s ideas, teachings, and thoughts to life for so many to see and who we hope get a great benefit from them. Besides social media, I’m also a practicing Astrologer. In my free time, I love being active, outside, cooking, writing, and learning new things or deepening what I’m already introduced to (just to name a few things). Thank you for stopping by and checking out the team behind Marketing for Hippies!

Sarah Sea Clarke:

Membership Content & Events Coordinator

I am an Artist who works with movement, film and facilitation and love exploring connections between the inner and outer realms. I draw on the felt sense of the bodymind to guide movement within the individual and the collective.

My ancestors originate from the British Isles and I have lived / worked internationally since 2008. My background is in humanitarian filmmaking, I am certified by the Work That Reconnects Network (USA), trained as a Movement Pedagog by the The Holistic Dance Institute (Austria) and have a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) degree from Sussex University (UK).

Currently it’s about the weave. My biggest wound led me to my niche ‘the Holistic Humanitarian’ …and that’s what I am birthing this year.

Felipe Bianchini:

Reporting Assistant

With a background in economics and experience as a financial trader, I used to measure success in numbers.

But over time, I realized I was exchanging my time for money in a way that lacked purpose.

That shift led me to marketing, where I now use my analytical skills to uncover the story behind the data and shape solutions that move people and businesses forward.

I bring a mix of logic and creativity to everything I do.

Outside of work, I spend my free time climbing mountains and exploring trails, always curious and drawn to the unconventional path.

Fred Fogarty:

FB Group Coordinator

I like to think of myself as a professional people-helper with a difference: I used to work as a ghost tour guide and ‘jumper-ooter’, gently encouraging people’s interest in history and the human experience.

I also helped them to scream and cry. I love it, I was damn good at it, and I did it for hard cash.

It’s funny what resources we find in strange places, eh? How these seemingly disparate skills and experiences help shape our lives.

Like this little corner of the internet. Ethical marketing — who knew?!

I hope to bring a little caring, curiosity and humour to the horrors of Facebook.

Nathan Maingard:

Video Editor & Processor

I’m a highly sensitive ‘misfit from the mainstream’. I used to think that meant there was something wrong with me. It took years to realise that, in fact, my sensitivity is a superpower.

Thanks to much inner work, hopeful writing, falling in love, and becoming a father, I’m developing the capacity to be an organic human in a plastic culture. I love deep dialogue, naughty belly laughs, sunrise surfs, and the quiet dignity of doing what is right (instead of what is easy).

Some of the things I’m most proud of (other than loving a good woman and being a papa) are my We Are Already Free podcast, the heart medicine songs I’ve written, and the people I’ve helped simply by being me.

I’m delighted to be part of a project helping hippies to be ethical in how we share – and are remunerated for – our gifts.
