Maesyn’s Fireweed Consulting

Example Consulting Subject: Wildfires

Wildfire is inherently complex and traumatic. However, my deep love for and experience in wildland firefighting enables me to reframe what might feel overwhelming to others.

Why not gain an advocate, not just an assessor?

Step 1: Let’s take a step back to the big picture first! Is there maybe a tool or graphic out there that can help us? Thanks, Fire Adapted Communities Learning Network!

Step 2: Take in the big picture, and find a space in it that you are either drawn to, are familiar with already, or feel a sense of urgency in doing. Got pets? Bingo!

Look at the wheel for Fire Adapted Communities. What is missing? What about your pets? Hundreds of pets die in disaster fires, trapped in homes that ignite. How do you protect them? What is their emergency plan?

Communities that have practical resilience, diversity in skills, and strong safety nets bounce back from disasters easier than communities that miss these marks. Let’s become more resilient together!
