Billa Lauiti-Kolkr is a ‘Woman of the North’ with Celtic and Norse lineages living in Australia for 6 Generations. A Medicine Woman and home-birthing Mother of children aged 5-25, She lives between Quandamooka and Gumbaynggirr Ancestral Lands with her husband and daughter who are of Welsh/Papuan/Samoan Lineage. Her kinship responsibilities are to the Eagle and Pine People’s and the Thunderbeings.
Billa is the founder of the Pacific Earth School. She is an accredited Sustainablity Consultant by The Natural Step Institute (Sweden), a veteran Permaculture Mentor, a Nature Connection Mentor in the 8 Shields lineage, and she is a “Regenerative Design” Practitioner and Mentor. After more than 20 years working on the ground in the realms of ecological sustainable development and exploring regenerative living through the eco-village and Permaculture movements - the Earth School is her solution to restore the lost yet crucial, bio-cultural wisdom normally passed on inter-generationally in Custodial Cultures.
Billa's Northstar is the nature-nurture worldview of Matrilineal Indigenous Cultures that centre around lifegiving themes of caring for country, of kinship with all the kingdoms of nature, prioritising the raising of children in human-scale kinships, and preserving ancient wisdom across the generations through living cultures of place. Although western educated, She steps fully outside of the western paradigm to explore, research and cherish the Earth wisdom that remains in First Nations cultures around the world as a matter of necessity and urgency - She believes “the west” is fully out of control and lost its way in being responsible to the Mother Planet.
