This story begins with a little discovery, wonder, and curiosity.

I spent five and a half years learning all I could about education and specializing in Montessori education for adolescents. What I found was a beautiful way of living life fully engaged, all within a community. To my surprise, there was a great emphasis on finding one’s place in the community through work. Think: the kind that could potentially bring the community money to grow and do more good works.

And my wonder took off.

I wondered about the roles my community needs to function and what that expresses about our values. I wondered, if schools were gone tomorrow, what my role might be within the community. How could I be helpful in creating a more lovely, joyful world?

My curiosity took me to prayer, a journal, and a little assessment by Many Parts Ministries (if you know, you know!)

I believe God is so good that He has placed a burning mission and vision in the hearts of leaders to create positive change and bring beauty in the world which we so desperately need. I started Bonita to support small business leaders in taking care of the small little details that keep their businesses running so that they can become more alive and engaged in the mission given to them, right now.
