Alicia grew up in the English and Welsh countryside, which led to a deep appreciation for nature. The oldest of five children, she attended a Waldorf school, where she first began to realize the importance of community life. At age fifteen, her family moved to Indonesia, which allowed her to broaden her view of the world and its rich and diverse cultures, giving her a unique perspective on life. As an adult, she became interested in acquiring further tools to facilitate an understanding of ourselves as human beings, becoming a Master NLP practitioner in 1989, and recently became a fully accredited Life Coach. Married since 1976, she and her husband Solihin moved to Oregon with their four children in 1991 with the vision of introducing their work in this country.
Alicia is a co-founder of Ad Humanitas — a company dedicated to furthering humanity within each of us, and the world, through its work. The core of the work is an understanding of the life forces — those elements that exist within and around us and shape our lives — together with an acknowledgement of the presence of a primary, or Divine force.
Alicia’s life experience and travel to many different countries brings a unique perspective to her work. She has co-facilitated personal development workshops with her husband Solihin for over fourteen years in the US and internationally. In 2002, she presented at the Guerrand-Hermes Foundation for Peace Conference, in Kalimantan, Indonesia. In addition, she has recently developed the Sacred Woman workshop where she offers an opportunity for women to explore and recognize their innate qualities and resources. She and Solihin continue to co-facilitate the series of workshops known as 'Being Human: the Life Forces, sharing not only their work, but also their passion for life and all that it has to offer. Their book, Being Human: Exploring the forces that shape us and awaken an inner life, is available on line, at Amazon.com or at good bookshops everywhere. Alicia and Solihin now live in
