Those around me say I'm a force of nature, leaving legacies in my wake.

I'll give you a glimpse behind the scenes.

One morning a few weeks after one of my fall herbal conferences, I drew back my beige curtain with a maroon cord and gazed out the window over my wooden desk.

I felt a pang of tenderness as my own heartache was reflected by the beauty of white snow covering the garden beds, where just a month before tawny calendula blossoms waved beside scarlet bee balm and purple coneflower. 

As founder and director of the nation’s largest herbal conference, I was at the forefront of the convergence of the natural health community and the women’s movement.

In that stronghold of women’s empowerment, I worked shoulder-to-shoulder with mentors and elders in the field to expand holistic approaches and unravel internalized oppression.

At the same time, I was struggling with my own health—physically and emotionally.

Trauma and drama had spiraled into heartbreak and health crises.

Stress-induced illnesses popped up left and right. Exhaustion, my constant companion. My relationships were in shambles, my temper short.

As I sipped a cup of mullein infusion to soothe my chronic cough, I was sobered once again by the big picture. 

Over my decades of working with women—and through my own healing journey—I saw firsthand the health impacts of emotional issues. Threads of stress and complex trauma were woven among my own diagnoses.

I was steeped in holistic tools, information, and resources. But it was not enough—or perhaps, too much. I longed for clarity, to touch the core of healing.

Here I am at the helm, I thought.

Yet I need more.

We need more!

I set out on a quest to go deeper, to the roots of healing.

I created space to think and to feel. To rest and to heal. 

I grieved. I sorted. I self-mapped my internal landscape—reflected by the cycles of nature.

Ultimately, I synthesized feminist psychology with holistic healing through the eyes of a naturalist. Grounded in the wisdom of my most trusted mentor, nature herself.

With the tools I developed, to my delight, I got “un-confused.” Clear. Grounded. Replenished.

I found my way home to myself—and to my beloved.

Grounded and replenished. With healthy boundaries. Authentic intimacy. Meaningful priorities.

Now I've witnessed similar transformations in countless students—women of all walks of life...

Whether young or old, black or white, straight, queer or lesbian. Many healers themselves: therapists, doctors, midwives, herbalists, leaders.

Reconnecting with their truth in a healthy, harmonious way.

And finding, at last, clarity on how to discern what's healthy for their heart and soul. 

I'd love to show you how to engage your connection with the Earth as your inner compass. The wise woman way.

Together, we'll navigate your road home to yourself and your truth. You'll gain practical, accessible tools and techniques crafted by, for, and about women. 

Think of it as a medicine chest for your mind, heart, and soul.
