The Shape of This Work

Clients often tell me that being in the spaces I hold, they feel they’re being seen without judgement; clearly and deeply remembered; like they can access the truth of who they are, and articulate this out loud, safely and fully, often for the first time.

My life—and likely yours too since you’re here—has been, and continues to be, woven with a myriad of dense experiences, both quiet and seismic. Seasons of extreme challenge, rupture, tending, and learning. And also seasons of joy, expansion, receiving, and integration (which can also take some getting used to).

This lived range is part of what is offered in my work: not only the critical, intellectual, academic—and yes, they’re absolutely essential—but also perspective, compassion, attunement, and experience-tested tools. I’ve spent years cultivating the art of pattern-tracking: braiding observation, memory, esoteric study, and somatic intelligence into something clear, teachable, and alive. I hold a deep reverence for transformation, and I approach it with both precision and intuition. We can choose to dance with growth every day; in what I call kinaesthetic living: a way of life where sensation, instinct, and embodied presence lead.

I am shaped by this near-lifelong practice of metabolising experience into workable frameworks; maps and models that now nourish and guide others. Experience becomes medicine not simply by surviving it, but by how we choose to live it, listen to it, and shape meaning from it.
Transformation is a practice.

Lineage and Learning

Before moving to Europe in 2012, I was living in New York City and immersed in scholarly work focused on Women’s Intellectual History. The persistent, ongoing task of recovering and reconceptualising women’s prolific contributions throughout history opened the door to truly comprehend the impact of the cultural hegemonic systems we live under—and how far back in time the roots of these systems stretch.

As this pathway blew open, my understanding of our modern myths deepened: how these myths stem from even older myths and cults, ones edited and rewritten to serve the subjugation of the feminine archetype, or any force that didn’t fit into the narrow constructs of proto-patriarchal systems. 

The ancient archetypes thrived then, thousands of years ago, and they still exist now; albeit fractured and split. It’s a revelation to connect these old stories to our lives now—to my life, to your life. The archetypes are alive in each of us. This understanding, both instinctual and academic, is a foundational pillar: we have lived differently in the past; our orientation in the present is painted by our cultural conditioning and societal education. And what is intrinsic within us—the part of us that knows there’s more to life—is thousands of years old knowledge and it lives in our bones.

Modalaties and Gifts

Spellwork, ritual, and the estoteric were integral parts of my childhood. I grew up with a quite animist perspective, in a forest at the top of a mountain, where I created ceremonies and spells with nature. I was also surrounded by observatories and astronomers (I met Carl Sagan at a dinner at a neighbour’s house. The neighbour had recently tracked and named a comet). The planets were omnipresent, and it didn’t take long before I found astrology. Tarot followed shortly after.

Intuitively engaging in the esoteric and energetic, I was consciously astral projecting by the age of eight, only later reading and discovering what it was I had already been doing had a name.

In artistic practices, I’m drawn to installation, atmosphere, and immersive work; ritual, dance, and embodiment; the shape of the inbetween; poetry; and the overlap between pattern recognition and scientific inquiry. These impulses also inform how I work: both in how I perceive the world, as well as in how I aim to intentionally create environments that have a sense of openness and embrace, boundaries and mystery.

I channel—this means I communicate with spirit or the non-physical. I also work as a medium. Mediums speak to the dead; channels connect to the spirit realm and often receive information directly without knowing what they’re about to say. If it sounds strange, I can confirm: it is. My empirical mind always has to step aside.

Wherever You Land

I wish you the best wherever you land for this leg of your journey—whether here with me, or elsewhere—I trust you’ll flourish.
