🌿 There are a few seats left in the 2026 wheel of life.
Is one of them yours?
Do you hear the bell ringing?
The beat of the drum?
Have the trees been whispering?
Has the eagle been calling your name?
This is the call.
The call to meet spirit
To co create
To step into the mystery
And claim your medicine shoes.

Maybe you feel lost, lonely, disconnected…
You’re not alone.
And you’re not broken.
Your belonging is unconditional
There’s nothing you need to fix
And change is waiting for you
A shift in perspective
A rooting in rather than out
A welcoming yourself home
I’ll take your hand and show you the way
Then you’ll fly on your own
Into the centre of your heart
To meet the face of the divine 💫

We’ve moved into the west, myself and past students, to deepen the teachings of the Mesa and mountain shamanism. As I gather the corn of this work, it’s my sacred duty to feed it back to my people. 🌽

I’ve made a vow
A vow to never tell the story of my wounds the same way again
A vow to meet myself in the unexplored places
A vow to not settle for a dreamless life
Who did I vow to?
Not to a god beyond me, above me, or outside of me.
Not to a goddess who lives in books or oracle cards.
No, I vow to the sacred within my own heart.
I vow to the wild goddess that lives in my song
My vespers flow to the luminous moon of my being.
The god complex has no ground here.
What stands here are the two feet of the guru…
That which exists within the heart, the non-dual Self.
I’ve made a vow.
A vow to the divine that is within & all around me
That each day be one of reverence, gratitude and humility. That I live the ceremony with integrity and depth.
I vow to not turn in fear. Instead, I will stand tall in the name of love, meeting the forgotten, the mysterious and the ugly with compassionate and friendly eyes.
For there is no part of self that is not also the goddess.
She teaches us this.
If you slowdown and listen, to the rhythm of nature and the beat of your heart… with your whole sacred being…. You too will know this truth.

Wild Poetry - Beckoning The Mad Woman
Now on YouTube
"Beckoning the Mad Woman", is a tale of ancestral healing. It speaks to the suppression of a woman's creative and instinctual nature, to the patriarcal notion that a woman should remain soft spoken, obediant and put together. Beckoning the mad woman asks the listener to befriend the mad woman, the one who freely expresses herself, who lives for authentic joy, and knows her inherent worth.
For our daughters, our mothers, our grandmothers and feminine beings. May we welcome the mad woman to dance with us and feel into the places that scare us.

I haven't always lived in my truth or embraced my femininity and my wild authenticity.
Wild Wellness was birthed from my life experience, having to break out of the cage I'd allowed myself to be put in.
It was a result of many things... generational wounding, protecting my inner child, the novel of stories I'd created to make sense of the trauma and pain I’d experienced, all of these and more created a young woman with an eating disorder, an abusive relationship with herself, self-worth that was dependant on her sexual relationship with men, a fear of becoming who she was meant to be, and an addiction to the unserving habits and beliefs that kept her small.
In my early 20’s I found myself in a marriage that was slowly destroying me. Not by his doing, but my own. Without realizing it at the time, I was burying my wild woman, my light, my flame, in order to keep the marriage alive. Somewhere within me, I knew that if my wild woman was allowed to roam free, that she would scream at me to leave the relationship and my stepdaughter, to become who I was meant to be.
I was suffering and nobody knew it. I suppressed my wild and buried HER under a pile of sh*#. Doing my best to shine what light I had onto everyone else while inside I felt like I was dying. My life force was depleted, my heart was weak, and I felt completely alone. I had lost the magic in life I once knew. I had lost connection to spirit and to my intuition, And I had lost connection to my wild and authentic nature. I had given up on myself.
But Wild Woman would not die.
She dug her way out of the filth I had buried her in and stripped away my deception to Self. She was screaming at me from my darkest shadows saying, “WAKE UP!”
The day it all changed was the day I walked into my first Wild Woman Circle.
I found a sisterhood I didn’t know existed before that day, women who wanted to see me rise and who offered real, uncondional friendship. I found a teacher who had lived her own wild awakening journey and who showed me the way to mine. I found a reconnection to Self and Spirit that I thought I’d lost forever.
Since that day 10 years ago, I have dived into the teachings of Wild Woman, the shamanic arts, and earth-based spiritualities. Reclaiming my own wild woman and remembering who I am at my core. Through my studies and life experience, I have discovered the foundational pieces to living life in wild wellness.
I have stepped into my calling, my passion, my purpose.
I have developed a love for Self that is UNBREAKABLE and still brings me to tears of gratitude.
Today, I am a mama to the most magical little boy, and a partner to a man who fuels my wild spirit and inspires me to be my best self. I have gratitude for the life I’ve lived, for teaching me what I needed to learn in order to step into my service and guide other women to their own wild awakening.
Today I empower and educate women to cultivate and reclaim their connection to Self so that they can rise to meet spirit and stand in their power.
