If I were pressed to name “one thing” that makes a difference on the path of embodied empowerment, I would say it’s the healing and reclamation of our wild dare.

Of course, this happens in chorus with the full complexity of our mental, physical, and spiritual experiences – which is precisely why I’ve created the exclusive eclectic blend of modalities that is work. However, after 15 years of leading women through the depths into greater aliveness, erotic freedom, and creative power, the thing that really moves the needle is tending the story of the heart.

When you work the emotional waters that keep you snagged, the flow of your wild dare gets free. When courage is nurtured holistically, not from a place of egoic survival but from a place of connected attunement, desire and new possibility begin to shape your life.

This work is an inherent part and outcome of everything I offer, however, 🌟Wild Dare: Reclaiming Courage and Creative Power From the Dark🌟 a 5 night immersive workshop happening at late summer, is the first time I’m devoting a transformative experience to this aspect of the work.

And between you and me, I couldn’t be more excited. There’s a subtle and significant tone shift every time an offering comes through me with a leading image organizing the container. And to lead with wild dare brings a fertile and necessary edge that dropped in as I felt into 2026 Fire Horse energy and what the collective is calling forth on the personal level.

I believe in continual ritual touch points in our journey, as the ancients did each year, for our psychic wellness and supported creative and embodied evolution.

I encourage you to take a moment and feel into wherever you are in the dance of your life’s revelation.
What’s wanting to come into being?
What does it need?

If you sense any kind of hesitancy, pull back, stopping point, or a blank “eee I don’t know how or what to do next,” I hope you’ll join me and the circle of women that gather to nourish your elemental power base and and undomesticated daring towards what your flame is calling you towards this year.

As winter begins to energetically thaw, I’ve been thinking about forward movement. About how quickly it turns into effort.
Into holding.
Into making sure nothing slips.

Run your life.
Stay on top of it.
Be the one in charge.

There’s strength in that stance. It builds structure. It builds continuity.

But there is a particular dryness that comes when being in charge becomes the only acceptable posture.

In Jungian depth psychology, the ego gives us a sense of “I.” It organizes conscious life. It allows us to function in the world.

It also imagines itself.

The capable one.
The steady one.
The one who must not falter.

And when that image becomes fixed, something quiet recedes.

Intimacy.

Intimacy with what is moving underneath the surface.
With desire before it’s strategic.
With grief before it’s managed.
With the subtle currents that don’t announce themselves as goals.

The psyche is larger than the role we’re playing.

When the ego tightens around one fantasy, the soul doesn’t disappear. It just stops being consulted.

That’s the dryness.
A thinning of relationship.

Jung’s image of the artist keeps coming back to me.

Artistry feels like influence that moves both ways.

Less management.
More relationship.

The artist, in Jung’s imagination, isn’t someone who dominates the material. She stays in contact with it. She lets herself be affected.

There’s something about the image of the artist that loosens things for me. Not as identity. Just as orientation. As a willingness to let what I’m shaping shape me back.

I don’t think this is about becoming less powerful.

It feels more like letting power breathe.
That contact is what restores depth.

So if you’re feeling dry, the question may not be about productivity or discipline.

It may be about relationship.

Where have you stopped listening?

This is the time, it has always been the time, of daring to transmute together. I don’t need to tell you about the rage, the grief, the fear, the numbness that can riddle the bones that carry you through collective and personal terrains of this moment of being alive. And I am not here to give you infographics about healing that can stay locked in spectator mode of the ego, nor lecture you from the cool seat of my scholarship and experience. I am here to conjure the power of liberated life force together. To hold, guide, contain, pressurize, discern, dilute, amplify, loosen, build, consecrate, and celebrate full-bloodied living through the female form. Shoulder to shoulder, alongside, immersed in the field that is part and parcel of our mutual freedom making on the exquisite terms of our own bodysouls.

I’ve been moving quietly through the last weeks of Snake, through the threshold of Fire Horse, meeting the form, the expression that has arrived.

Sisters, if you feel the call to live from the newness that has emerged from your deep shedding, I invite you to join me at Wild Dare this summer . Registration opens soon. Get on the waitlist to be notified - see bio link 😘

Life lately… ritual containers for mind, body, heart, spirit, and soul healing of the creative power and lifeforce of women is the erotic liberation I get down with. The pulse of agency freed in the voices, spines, thrones, and embodied knowing of the brave women who gathered last weekend at Imbolc, under that full moon, in the hush of snow covered Berkshires at is beyond inspiring — it changes the way I/we move through the world. Thank you for holding us in your warmth. “From here, we go flowering our future” - Peruvian curandera 🌹🔥

It is a terrible awakening, but an awakening nonetheless - and there is eros quaking fiercely through the martial fire blazing up into our mouths and eyes that incarnates here now in the present field ALIVE and one with what we see and what we love, and who we are as members of humanity. There are many facets of an archetype. The woman standing firm in her advocacy for her neighbor bears the horns of the erotic ram. Martial energy towards connection, towards life, towards the deconstruction of that which seeks to reduce and abuse. The discernment is vital - from the masked and armed men who seek to separate and destroy in the name of an exclusive afterlife, divorced from embodied life. May this moment, this heightened field, awaken us into what Lorde called “deep participation… in joint concerted actions not possible before.”

In two days, I’ll be facilitating Reclaiming Eros… I resurfaced this particular workshop because of the current administration and its ambient field of erotic abuse… I had no idea what would unfold in the collective the week leading up to this immersive guidance through Jungian alchemy, the 4D wheel, and other sacred ritual arts of liberation. Feeling newly stirred into the heart and serious necessity of this work for how we live in the now, deeply and clearly rooted in love and power within.

Grateful for the depth traditions that hold me in erotic soul centered relationship with the world 🙏 thanks James 🐏 and praise be Audre Lorde 🌹

Reminiscent vibe? I’ll bite. 2016 is the year I opened Aletis House in Hudson (read 📖 Jane Eyre’s Sisters to learn about the Aletis namesake), home to all things embodyperiod. 🎂 (and when it still felt like I knew every online menstrual advocate personally 🩸😘)
🌹Started my practice here offering 1:1 wMeagan Boydgline then was “menstrual and sexual empowered embodiment from the depths up and out.”

What’s changed since then? Really I’m still up to the same embodied individuation life as ceremony and waking dreaming - but I can say qualitatively there has been a deep ripening through the last decade. More steadily seated in the root throne of my being and more fiercely lovingly attuned to this path and who I joyously serve. Here’s to the next turn in the 🌀 dance.

Many women arrive at this work already knowing something is off in the way their aliveness has been interpreted, managed, and narrowed over time.

What often brings relief isn’t permission to want more, but language that finally fits lived experience. Language that recognizes erotic life as responsive, intelligent, and shaped by context — rather than something that should remain stable, available, or easily explained. When that recognition lands, shame loosens. Curiosity returns. Choice becomes possible again.

This is where depth work begins: by building the internal and external structures that allow aliveness to move without distortion. Not by fixing desire, but by developing the capacity to stay in relationship with it as it shifts, intensifies, recedes, and reorganizes.

If this reframes something you’ve struggled to name, pause with it.

What changed for you when desire learned it had to be managed?
What might become possible with a larger container?

Save this if it gives language to something you’ve lived.
Share it with someone who’s ready for a deeper frame.

And if you, like me, are seeding structures of greater eros and creative power for 2026, join me for Reclaiming Eros 🌹 see bio link for details and registration 💫🌑

When eros is welcomed back into the body, it doesn’t stay contained. It begins to ripple outward — shaping how you choose, how you create, how you relate, how you say yes and no. Clarity returns. Vitality reorganizes. Life starts to feel inhabited again.

✨Reclaiming Eros✨ is for women who sense that their creative power, pleasure, and presence have been shaped by adaptation — and who are ready to meet what lives underneath the old patterns. For those who want more than insight alone. For those who are ready to feel their way into change.

This is an embodied, depth-psychological workshop that works through the body — using somatic practice, ritual, creative exploration, and the 4D Wheel to restore contact with eros as life force. Not to fix or override yourself, but to create the conditions where desire can reorganize from the inside out.

The result isn’t a momentary high.
It’s a felt shift in how you inhabit your life — more agency, more coherence, more creative movement forward.

We meet at a powerful midpoint of the year — a threshold where what’s been stirring beneath the surface can begin to take form. You don’t have to know what is emerging yet. You only have to be willing to make room for it.

How I moved through the 2026 doorway…
Lake Atitlán worked on me quietly.

Not as escape, not as revelation —
but as a deep listening that didn’t require language.

I spent a week held by the waters and volcanic bowl of Lake Atitlán, staying — a place that knows how to nourish silence, rhythm, and rest 🙏🏼🌹

Winter still holds the land where I live.
The year has technically turned.
The moon has moved through her own reckonings.
And at the lake that now lives inside my breathing, feels older than all of it.

Some thresholds announce themselves.
Others are subterranean — felt in the breath, the sleep, the waterline of the heart.

This is not a moment of resolution.
It’s a moment of orientation.

Listening for what is humming in the space made by a year of emptying out.
Noticing what no longer requires force.
Letting the body register that something has shifted,
even if nothing is ready to be named yet.

There are many calendars at work right now.
Solar, lunar, seasonal, ancestral.
The nervous system has its own.

I’m letting them speak to each other
without rushing any of it into action beyond radical presence.

For now, water.
For now, rhythm.
For now, standing at the edge of more than one beginning.

Thank you Lake Atitlán, thank you for holding all the magic and the tree that grows through the bungalow I got to call home for a week, thank you Paola - medicine woman and sovereign soul who guided and tended to me in deep practice 👁️✨💙

Blessed 2026 dear souls 💋

There is a way life organizes itself when you stop managing it.
Not reckless. Not collapsed. Just… less interrupted.

This time of year invites that kind of listening.

The kind that doesn’t rush to interpret experience or make it useful.

The kind that lets sensation, desire, and timing speak first.

I’ve been noticing how much effort falls away when I trust where I’m living from — not just what I’m doing.

How the body knows when something is finished.
How truth doesn’t need emphasis.
How desire moves more cleanly when it isn’t being watched.

This isn’t withdrawal from the world.
It’s a different quality of presence inside it.
And it changes everything:
how we move
how we relate
how we touch what matters
how we let ourselves be seen

This mid-winter, I’m holding a focused workshop at Kripalu for women who are ready to explore that shift — not conceptually, but experientially.

Not to fix anything.
Not to push through anything.
But to remember what it feels like to live from the inside again.

This work isn’t mindset. It’s psyche meeting form.
Jungian alchemy held through the 4-D Wheel — Body, Mind, Heart, Spirit — so transformation isn’t conceptual, but lived.

If the slides landed like recognition, if you felt that spark in your chest or the tug low in the belly —
trust that.

From my autumn photo roll, moments of gratitude:

- NYC slumber party and hang with my Sister Queen .s.burnett
- One of my favorite road views in the Hudson Valley
- Having the very dated but/and cherished book and I edited together featured amongst my mentor Gina Ogden, one of my beloved teachers Marion Woodman, and flame-fanning at the bookshop
- Badass crew of Divine Sisters from my Inanna Path to Wholeness workshop at
- Backyard bounty and spirited visitors
- A precious day with little Sebastian and
- Big skin shed with the beloved women of the Sister Beloved retreat and the pleasure of being in cedar hot tub under the November night sky together at .experience
- Adventures in art, deep bodysoul listening, and eros.

Moments of grounding into being, essence, power, presence, flow, accompaniment, delight, sensuality, clarity, inspiration, peace, and expansion.

Grateful too for the second cousin who just swung by to drop off his pumpkin pie because he knows it’s my favorite 🥰 and the wide and wild constellation of family I am about to feast with. Here we go 🍴🐍🌹
