Women’s Wisdom Keeper & Facilitator

I offer women keys to alchemise our shadows, finding wholeness in the Earthy cradle of the feminine.

My Journey

In the descent into the depths of Womanhood and Motherhood, I have woven my fragments back into wholeness.

From tender Maiden to devoted Mother, I have quested and come home - at last - to this body, this self, in unconditional love. I have stretched my edges, met my deepest shadows, melted my stagnation and come back a hundred thousand times to the presence of this earth, this breath, this body. I have transmuted repressive patriarchal dictates and fallen wildly in love with my body, my wombspace, my bleed, my milky femininity, and melted like honey in the loving arms of my sisters.

I work today in full devotion to the mutiform beauty of our Shadows, the magic of Mother and to the Sacred Feminine that lives through each of us as we walk our paths in truth. I hold the vision for a deep remembering of the circle, and of our right to ritual and to belong to earth.

MY intimacy IS with the deep waters.

Unlike so many staking superficial claims in the healing world today, I come to this path not to abandon the body and chase the light, but from an intimate knowledge of - and loving intimacy with - the exquisite depths of being a sensitive woman and human being. It is my experience that it is here that our Medicine resides.

This is important because it’s this depth itself that brings us together here, that ignites my soul, that catalyses this work into transformational alchemy. I bow at the altar of the unseen realms of the feminine, and it is my soul’s longing to meet you there too.

I have known what it is like to live in fear of my wholeness. To push the deeply feeling, tender (and often most intuitive) parts of myself far away for fear of what it would be to feel them, to expose them, to risk them being too sensitive, too wild, too desirous, too much.

But they hold the power. And in a society that chases the light and represses all else, reclaiming them is radical and deeply healing work. And it’s available to each of us.

The Dark Goddess is calling us back in and down, deeper and deeper - together, we can remember the magic she pours through us.

The Divine Mother Is My Greatest Teacher

Through earth-based practice and sacred sisterhood, I have unlocked my wholeness as a woman.

I am here to help you see there is another way of living as a woman, where you can be in sacred togetherness and feel valued in all of your feelings - your shadows, your stories, your fears, your hopes: all of it. Take my hand and let’s open the portal to finally find your inner worth, to feel safe, loved, to belong, to clear the wombspace of generations of trauma, to simply come back to this body here and now.
