Brooke McNamara is an MFA, award-winning poet, author, and transmitted Zen teacher whose work is shaped by both creative practice and lived experience. As a mother to two spirited, sensitive, and kind-hearted boys, Lundin and Orion, she brings a deeply human perspective to her teaching and writing. Alongside her husband, Rob, she continues to explore the beautiful, messy lessons of parenthood as a true training ground for learning how to live as love.
Her presence reflects a blend of wisdom, warmth, and honesty, inviting others into a space where mindfulness and everyday life meet. Through poetry, teaching, and contemplative insight, Brooke offers a grounded and compassionate approach that resonates with both the wondrous and the ridiculous aspects of being human.
