Julia Butterfly Hill: Following Our Calling

Follow your calling no matter what it takes, says a young environmentalist

At the age of 23, Julia Butterfly Hill spent two years living in an ancient redwood tree she called Luna, in order to protect the 1000-year-old tree from destruction. She speaks to us of how we can find our calling by being willing to fall apart and let everything we believed about ourselves and our world transform before our eyes.

Julia Butterfly Hill is a writer, poet, and founder of the Circle of Life Foundation. She lectures across the U.S. and has appeared on CNN, the Today show, Dateline, and Oprah. Julia is the author of “The Legacy of Luna” and (with Jessica Hurley) “One Makes the Difference.”
