I am here to activate, inspire, repair, and help create a new path forward for mothers, birth workers, wild women and the next generation.

15 years ago I began my journey into motherhood where I deep dived into all things surrounding the childbearing year, herbal medicine, food therapy, and regenerative & holistic health. I became utterly fascinated with the human body, what makes it tick, the gr

eat mystery of life and how everything is mirrored in the cycles and rhythms of nature. I am acutely aware of the crossroads we stand at in our collective human history. I move through this world awake & aware, soft & tender, but also with the protective & fierce spirit of Mother Bear energy. The revolution we all feel brewing isn't coming from outside ourselves - it will come through us. It starts with you and me, here and now, in our bodies, our kitchens, our homes, our gardens, our frequencies, our businesses and communities. We are the ones we have been waiting for. In birth, in health, with our food, in all aspects of our lives...this is the chapter of the story we take it all back!

When I realized just how precious my time and energy is, I stopped trying to “dismantle” and protest against things, and I just removed my attention and placed my focus on what I want to build and expand.

I’m not suggesting there is never a good time or place to protest or stand up to corruption, cause here we are watching one world burn while we simultaneously build another.

What I’m saying is, it’s time to get wicked smart. It’s time to stop outsourcing so much of our lives and ourselves to soulless companies. It’s time to have a strong faith because the years ahead will be a challenge, absolutely.

But you are a smart and capable woman, and many of us keep the home fire burning. We have a lot of influence - more than we may even realize - on how this whole story unfolds.

I have offerings for both private and group mentorship and coaching.

Make sure you grab a fr33 copy of my eb00k *Cyclical living in a Linear world* from my b I o.

One thing I believe every home should have is a library. 📚 If the power goes out, the internet goes down, or who the heck knows what else… it’s peace of mind knowing you have books with knowledge and information in them.
Here’s the first instalment of a series on books I personally recommend adding to your wish list if you don’t already have them.
What would you add?? Please let me know your favourite medicinal herb/wild edibles books. 📕 🙏🏼
Be sure to get a download of my ebook *Cyclical Living in a Linear World*

To share a circadian barcode with your land means that your body’s internal rhythms — sleep, energy, hunger, hormone cycles — are naturally synced with the light, temperature, and seasonal shifts of the place you live.
If we looked back to when we started importing foods from across the world and consuming them at inappropriate times of the year (like mangos in the dead of winter) we may see when things started to fall out of balance.
It may seem like nitpicking, but I think it matters more than we realize. Convenience most certainly does come at a cost.
The microbes in your gut, the minerals in your bones, the rhythm of your hormones all respond to the land you live on.
When you eat what grows around you, in season, you’re syncing with that intelligence. You’re dialing in.
Aligning. Remembering that you belong here.
It’s a simple way of staying in right relationship with place, time, and body, and really truly appreciating enjoying things when they come into season. The strawberries you grow that ripen and you have access to once a year taste sweeter and more delicious than the ones they pump out for the grocery store. 🍓

Every time you choose your own rhythm over the machine, you are opting into a life that works for you. Every time you choose slow nourishment over convenience food, you strengthen the whole of you.

Nature is medicine. It’s not fluff, it’s how you stay connected and tuned in.

When you operate from the original blueprint, you’re really hard to control. Your body isn’t easily highjacked, and you are firmly anchored in the truth. That alone sends ripples out in the world. 🌊

Start with where you are and with what’s in front of you. Embody the change. ✨✨✨

I have a few offerings to share if this work is resonating with you, including The Living Year - a 12 month immersion & walk of the seasonal wheel created for women who are ready to come back into relationship with their bodies, their food, their rhythms, and the living world around them. We’re just kicking off summer and there’s so many reasons to pour into yourself! AND I have one space left in my August Wild Feminine Retreat taking place out in the glorious and bountiful Boreal Forest. 🌳

Have a beautiful day 🌿💓

Body oiling is a non negotiable for me as we move into the dark season more every day. 🕯️There is something about connecting with myself and all the beautiful plants via the oils that make it such a better experience. This is part of what preventative, self-reliant health care looks like for me. The massage and lymphatic drainage I feel is especially important in the slower months when I’m less active.

So… How to Practice Body Oiling?

🌿Choose Your Oil: Select a natural oil like sesame, coconut, almond, or one of my herb infused high vibe oils! Try to choose an oil that would grow in the environment you live in.
🤲🏽Warm the Oil: Rub the oil in your hands to generate heat before applying it to your body. You could warm it in a pot on the stove but I personally feel for my daily practice it’s an unnecessary step.
💆🏽‍♀️Massage: Apply the oil in circular motions over the joints and long strokes along the limbs, working towards the heart. I start behind my ears and on my neck and work my way to my feet. 🦶 There are so many nerve endings on your ears, hands and feet so make sure you get those!
🪷Let It Absorb: Leave the oil on for at least 15-30 minutes to allow oil to deeply absorb. This is why I love doing this when my pores are open because my skin absorbs it so quickly. I have a robe I throw on afterwards so I don’t get oil everywhere, but it really does absorb quick!
That’s it! This creates a barrier that locks in moisture but also feels SUPER grounding to my nervous system. It really helps me unwind at the end of the day and set myself up for a good sleep. It helps stimulate blood circulation, reduces stress and muscle tension, encourages lymphatic drainage, and delivers nutrients to the skin!
I have a variety of herbal infused oils made from herbs I’ve grown in my garden or wild crafted available for you to experience! Comment NATURE below and I’ll send you over to my shop. You can use code NATURE at checkout for 15% off your order!
Cheers to your vibrant health! 🌿
