I am a writer, filmmaker, mentor, healer, holistic health educator, and environmental advocate with over 30 years of experience in the field. My work lives at the intersection of content creation, business, holistic health, traditional healing, world cultures, and planetary well-being. I believe that human health and environmental health are inextricably intertwined and have promoted this core value in my career consisting of servicing and working with a clientele from a broad spectrum of cultures, populations, and identities including: those with physical disabilities, people living with HIV/Aids, mentally and emotionally challenged individuals, global indigenous cultures, POC, Asian communities, 2SLGBTGAI, Men's grief support groups, along with environmental and sustainability initiatives. As an early pioneer in holistic health, I have developed resources, programs, and centers based on the integration of western, eastern, ancient wisdom, earth-based, and creative arts healing modalities. Some of my health initiatives include creating a holistic health bookstore-resource center, creating an addiction recovery center based on an integrative healing modality, co-chairing a startup of a complementary health center at a major hospital, and working as a yoga teacher, mentor, and holistic health practitioner.In the environmental arena have also worked in the construction industry using and promoting environmentally sustainable practices, directed a production catering company which pioneered the use of recycling products, worked as a farm manager with an organization that incorporated work on the land within its health modality, worked on an organic farm, and most recently am the writer and producer of Makwa: A multi-award-winning film script/feature in development about cultural and ecological health.https://www.Johnny-Cole.comhttps://www.makwamovie.comhttps://imdb.me/johnnycolehttps://www.instagram.com/johnnycole
