The Wildfire and the Roots
A twelve-week journey home to your full life
Begins Tuesday, January 5th, 2027, 7pm (Irish time)
Most of the women who come to this work have already spent years on their healing. They've gone into therapy, taken courses, done the Morning Pages, all of it. And at some stage along the way, this act of healing themselves became another job, one they don't have the capacity to hold on top of all their real life stuff.
I think we've begun to misunderstand what healing actually is. Just like a cut on your arm, if you pick the scab, it takes longer to grow new skin. Rather than picking at our pain over and over and over again, I believe we heal so that we can actually live more. I believe we heal so that we can experience this beautiful life more. Healing, to me, is about sinking our teeth into the meat of life and really savouring it. That's where we find the juice.
Wildfire and the Roots is about bucking the trend of what we understand healing to be, and grabbing our lives with a powerful ferocity that holds every single emotion imaginable. It's about learning to live while being scared, while being THRILLED, while being brave and while being soft and squishy. This is about being the woman you came here to BE, in capital letters. It's about standing on the mound of your own life and shouting, I'm here, I'm ready, I'm going to do this thing.
This work is for you if...
- You've become disillusioned by a world flooded with healing, but you're still picking at your own scabs.
- Even though you've been trying to work through your shit, you still find yourself in the same loops, time and time and time again.
- You're absolutely exhausted by your life, because somewhere, underneath it all, you suspect that part of it might be a bit of a white lie.
- You want to feel and experience everything: you want to sink into joy and grief and anger and love, and all the things in between.
- You're ready to stop pretending to be someone who fits in really well with everyone else, but who you don't really know at all.
Twelve weeks. Four phases.
Roots don't keep you small. They're what let you dance and stomp and roar without falling over. From them, the wildfire gets to burn as a life force, as joy, as ferocious love, as the grief that rips a heart open rather than closes it. This IS the sacred feminine rising. This is the burning of our bones and of our blood, this is the journey where we get to choose how our lives will be, and commit to a path of true freedom, led by our own souls.
Rooted to Belong, Wild to Take Up Space
Arriving. Coming home to the body before anything else is asked of it.
Rooted to Rest, Wild to Shed
Letting go of what no longer fits, without needing the next thing ready yet.
Rooted to Grieve, Wild to Crack Open
Meeting grief as a doorway, not a collapse.
Rooted to Feel, Wild to Burn
Learning to tell true life force apart from depletion in your own body.
Rooted to Desire, Wild to Want
Reclaiming what's been silenced as “too much.”
Rooted to Create, Wild to Make
Creating from fullness, not from should.
Rooted to Love, Wild to Love Fiercely
Boundaries as an act of love, not rejection.
Rooted to Bloom, Wild to Open
Naming, concretely, what has already changed.
Rooted to Connect, Wild to Belong to Life
Staying rooted under real pressure, in real relationships.
Rooted to Speak, Wild to Roar
Full voice. Full volume. No apology.
Rooted to See, Wild to Dance
Meeting uncertainty without needing to control the outcome.
Phoenix Rising
Building your own sustainable rhythm to carry long after the group ends.
What's held within this container
- A one-to-one induction session with me before we begin, so you arrive oriented, met, and held from day one
- 12 weekly live calls, blending somatic body-based awareness, intuitive guidance, shamanic practice, sound, and guided journeying
- A small, intimate group, held closely rather than lost in a crowd
- Weekly Voxer voice-note check-ins with me between calls
- A private community space to stay connected with the group between weeks
- Real practices for real life between calls, not just insight, an actual toolkit you can keep using
- A closing ritual to mark your own rising, not just an ending
How this begins
- Book a Resonance Call. A short, honest conversation with me to feel into whether this container is the right fit for you, right now.
- Reserve your place. If it's a yes on both sides, you secure your spot with the investment below.
- Your induction session. Before Week 1 begins, we meet one to one, so you walk in already oriented and held, not arriving as a stranger to the group or the work.
or 3 monthly payments of €300 (€900 total)
This is a founding price, held for this very first group of the fully reimagined container. It reflects the depth of twelve weeks of live, held, embodied work, and the trust it takes to be among the first women to walk through it with me.
Starts Tues, Jan 5th, 2027, 7pm (Irish time) · Runs 12 consecutive weeks · Format Live weekly calls · Spaces Limited, kept small on purpose
