Writer • Facilitator • Earth-lover • Reconnector

​

Andrea Edwards is a writer, facilitator, and lifelong student of inner and outer transformation. Her work weaves together decades of experience in organizational leadership and coaching with a deepening spiritual and ecological path. She is passionate about fostering resilience and connection — to self, others, Earth, and what matters most.

​

As a business executive and founder of SwiftRiver Associates, Andrea has spent over 30 years guiding individuals and organizations toward greater alignment, effectiveness, and meaning. Her leadership and coaching work is often focused on mindful engagement, authentic expression, and personal thriving, especially for women navigating systems that don’t always make space for their full selves.

​

Her more recent chapters include completing an MFA in Creative Writing, writing novels and essays rooted in eco-spiritual and feminist themes, serving on the Board of Cambridge Insight Meditation Center, and creating the Substack As Long As We’re Breathing…., a hopeful space for exploring what’s possible in times of personal, societal, and planetary shifts.

​

Andrea draws strength and guidance from the natural world, contemplative practice, and community. A New England native, originally from Brockton, Massachusetts (the City of Champions), she and her husband spend summers off-grid in the White Mountains, where she befriends old trees, listens to the birds, and lets the land remind her how to belong.
