Our work
Rooted in care. Guided by creativity. Powered by nature.
​
Founded in 2020, Create with Gaia emerged as a response to a world in flux. Amid the upheaval of the pandemic, founder Vanessa Chantelle Song chose to leave behind a career in media, politics, and government to reorient her work toward healing, creativity, and purpose-led action. What began as community geared towards youth mentoring and a journey of personal transformation has since grown into a living, evolving community committed to collective care and ecological connection.
​
Create with Gaia is a creative organisation that supports individuals, communities, and organisations to reconnect with creativity, nature, and each other. Through workshops, consulting, storytelling, and hands-on programs, we help cultivate regenerative change that is locally rooted and globally connected.
​
We believe every person and place is part of a living ecosystem. Our work is about nurturing that understanding—offering simple, replicable models and infrastructure that empower local leaders to care for their communities and the lands they belong to.
​
We think globally, act locally, and create together for a world that thrives in reciprocity, creativity, and care.
Think Global, Act Local.

Our
Values
Community, Creativity and Connection
We are a community of creatives dedicated to opening spaces where people feel inspired and empowered to create, share their creations and to heal from what inspires us to create in the first place.
​
Custodianship of the Earth
We believe that the Earth is as much a part of us as we are of her. We are committed to caring for her lands, her waters, her trees and landscapes.
​
Awareness and Empowerment
Commitment to growth on a collective and internal level speaks to the truth, that we don’t always get things right, in fact it is in the learnings that we grow the most. We do our best until we know better, and then we do better.
​
Gratitude and Heart-Led Living
Gratitude is one of the most powerful vibrations in the known Universe. Our ability to be thankful and joyful and continue to receive the blessings vested for us from the Universe, directly correlates to our ability to take time to notice and be grateful for the tiniest of blessings.
We cultivate spaces where we can practice deeply heart led connection as a community
