Are you a compassion warrior, culture worker, and rebel who cares deeply about humanity; who's tired of doing all the “right things” and still getting what you’re trying to avoid; and who feels trapped between burning it all down or dying but would rather be wildly, and sacredly alive? I'm an animist and ancestral wisdom guide; ceremonialist, and empath. And I love guiding other humans who want to use their burnout and purpose anxiety as a jumping-off point to journey into their shadows and the shadows of modern society in order to de-armor their hearts; remember a deeper, wilder sense of belonging to the world; and reclaim the rich and sacred spark of their aliveness. This newsletter contains wisdom nuggets, podcast episodes, and invitations to paid and free offerings from my business. All in support of remembering a more animist and land-based culture; holding firm to our humanity in a dehumanizing world; and living with compassion, vulnerability, and reverence.

Hello, dear ones - We're in the "Samhain" portal now until some time in early November, depending on whether you observe the Gregorian calendar date or other, earlier, calendars and ways of marking the passage of time and the turning of the seasons. This moment in the year marks the wrapping of the harvest season and the retreat indoors to dream, rest, and perform indoor labor (mendings, weavings, etc) around the fire - fed with stories and songs, as well as whatever food and drink was able...
Friends, This has been quite the Autumn so far. I'm out of the rhythm of writing but hoping to carve out enough space for it to come back again. Reflections on Initiations In the old stories and practices of initiations, it’s usually a plant, animal, or representative of the land itself that initiates you, that calls you to the Journey and prompts your Descent.
