My offerings back into my community and collective are to activate the innate wisdom of the Mother tree within us all, guiding us to connect our roots with each other

My desire is to help others dismantle the shame within themselves and rebuild a world of reciprocity and generosity; where liberation is a right to all, and not a privilege to a few 

Compounded trauma of sexual, religious, and emotional abuse, heartbreak, divorce, domestic violence,estrangement, and death led me to creating a self-sabotaging & harmful loop of chronic anxiety and addiction

I spent a decade in the Underworld, getting absolutely rocked with the pain of existing

Suicidal ideation gripped me until I had this one really defining moment 

I met the Great Mother

It wasn't like any experience I had in the church

In this moment, she pulled my body of grief and held me like the Mother I had always needed

She assured me I deserved to live, but I needed to fight for it

I had to confront the victim, martyr, and persecutor within

I needed to learn to love and respect my mind and body without inherited shame

My journey led me through some intense recalibrations, and has been deeply + ancestrally rooted in the strength and wisdom of those who came before me

My maternal grandmother became a guiding force in my life after her passing in 2011

She gave me the vision to see and course correct our ancestral lineage

It awakened my psychic channel within

I met many other spiritual guides  who have been supporting me after that activation

I now understand that recovery is not just about mending the self 

but also reclaiming the stories, traditions, and resilience passed down through generations

The process has been anything but linear-- there have been setbacks, moments of burnout, times where the weight of the past felt unbearable, and dark nights of the soul

Grace allowed me to face the trapped memory and shadows that kept me in self-sabotaging loops

My recovery has been a sacred journey of returning to wholeness through:

• reclaiming animist & ancestral witchcraft practices
• releasing trapped emotion in the body (somatic healing)
• quitting alcohol
• microdosing psilocybin 
• nervous system support/breath work
• inner child healing
• intense shadow work
• rewiring limiting beliefs at a subconscious level with QEC Therapy

In the embrace of the Great Mother and Nature, I found deep nourishment and support

Back to the Mother roots is where I found and reclaimed myself and her bountiful grace

I am awakened to the truth of who I am and how I am here to serve

I am blessed

I found eternal love through my partnership with my husband after searching for something real for years

My children are thriving in their own unique blueprints and I am absolutely proud of who they are as people

I'm living my witch in the woods fantasy, making herbal medicines for my community, writing stories, creating art, and helping others find their truth along the way

I believe everyone deserves to live a life of passion and pursuit, guided by the stars, out of survival, and into the territory of thriving

May Spirit guide us back to ourselves, 

rooted in love, and in alignment of our highest good

My ancestors are French, Irish, Germanic, and Chippewa 

They were farmers, teachers, midwives, healers, mystics, witches, and shapeshifters

I am grateful for the wisdom shared in Spirit, as much had been hidden because of patriarchal actions 

We are the cycle breakers and starters

May we all release the fear to GROW WILD
