Martha Williams & John Scilipote

Martha Williams and John Scilipote developed the BreakBread process and Embodied Conversation and have worked with hundreds of people to bring insight into how they show up to conversation and what it means to build cultures of trust and belonging. They bring their decades of experience in facilitation, coaching, nondual healing, mindfulness, culture & sustainability, and the arts & movement to all their work. Martha is a Co-Active Coach, facilitator, long-time culture-maker and award-winning filmmaker and choreographer. She holds a B.A. in Anthropology from The George Washington University and an M.F.A. in Film Directing from the California Institute of the Arts. John’s foray into the art of listening and conversation was initially through his experience as a jazz musician. After an early music career, he focused on entrepreneurship and business, starting a record label in the early 90s and then moving on to founding a digital technology company in the mid 90s while he raised his children. John is a 20 year practitioner of nondual healing and men’s work facilitation as well as a certified soulful facilitator. He studied at Wesleyan University and holds a B.A. from the New England Conservatory.
