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 - I've been trying to get this email to you all week and stuff just keeps popping up. Some weeks are putting-out-fire weeks. Some years are putting-out-fire years. Many times our instincts, as humans, seem to tell us that when a challenge pops up, it's an obstacle. We drop everything we're doing and head in a different direction. Even in much of the spiritual and wellness world there's this rhetoric that "when something's right, it flows." That's a machine-based view of the...
Hello, dear ones - Happy Spring Equinox! We're at the balance point of even days and even nights. And that got me reflecting a bit on balance and how a machine-oriented understanding of balance is something akin to "everything working consistently, as it should, and requiring no maintenance." Yet if we look at myth, at ancestral skills, at animist and land-connected worldviews; we see an understanding that life is maintenance. Relationships require maintenance. Harmony within this...
