2026 Visioning Workshop
A sacred pause at the turn of the year.
The end is also the beginning so we begin this workshop at the end. We won’t shy away from reflecting on what the year 2025 has brought us—the challenges, lessons, loss, opportunities, insights, grief, understandings, gifts and connections. It’s been a year!
In this workshop, I'll lead you through a reflection meditation, journaling prompts, a releasing ritual, visioning activities (dream boards, word of the year, year ahead spreads) and intention setting.
This is the ninth year in which I’ve offered this workshop. It’s had many incarnations. From sitting around my dining table to a local art studio and now, Zoom. What stays the same are the practices and rituals I offer that have helped me across the threshold of each year.
What you’ll need:
Tools for writing.
Tools for collaging: old magazines, interesting bits of paper, photographs, words.
Tarot and oracle deck (s).
A glass of water, mug of coffee/tea, something nourishing to eat during our break time.
Your sacred tools and talismans (optional): something to smudge with, crystals, stones, shells, bones, flowers, hydrosol, candle, altar cloth.
Cost for this 4-hour mini-retreat is: $55.
Join us for a journey with the in-between—the quiet, restorative time of winter.
Create space for your imaginal self to take root in Winter’s fertile void.
I love winter. Specifically January and February in the PNW. Before you say, you’re crazy!, let me explain. I love the quiet, hush after the busyness of the end-of-year festivities. I love the spaciousness of bare tree limbs against the white/grey sky, offering me a blank slate and an expanded view.
Winter invites reflection, retreat, and active, receptive waiting. This internal process is essential to the nature’s cycles and the creative process.
There is so much happening in the in-between, gestational stage of the creative process—even if we can’t see it.
“Our work blooms from the digestion of our experiences and impressions. And very often, when we do not feel productive or capable of further efforts, we can still gather experience and knowledge, preparing the ground. This kind of work is essential, and leads to the epiphanal moments in the flow.”
Without winter there is no spring. The Winter stage is where we cultivate states of creative awareness, such as patience, stillness, intuition, imagination, trust, humility, gratitude, awareness, reflection, and connection to the source within us.
Winter is a strengthening stage—clearing out and creating the inner space for the new inspiration, the new vision, to arrive and take root.
You want to explore the restorative gifts of winter in your creative process.
You want something to look forward to each week—a steady rhythm of soul care—during the Winter season.
You want to grow your capacity to be with the in-between, the liminal spaces, the quiet, the mystery—the rich soil for creativity to take root.
You want to carve out space each week for self-discovery, reflection, and awareness.
You want to cultivate an active receptivity towards a particular creative project or dream seed.
You want to listen, share, and connect with others in a supportive community.
“More darkness means more quietness in the evenings, when all that can be heard is the robin’s song. The rook, the jackdaw, raven or hooded crow, the distant squealing of gulls. I can hear so much more in between.”
An interactive book club..

[Listen to me talk about this program in a nine minute audio or read the edited version below.]
Often we have this linear idea of how our creative process should work.
Or we might think about creativity as a cyclical, circular process, like a moon cycle or seasonal cycle: beginning, middle and end, waxing energy, peak energy, waning energy, birth, death, and rebirth.
As a proponent of creative cycles, I’ve been noticing lately the way in which I can feel stuck within that model.
Here's what I mean—using the name of this program (dream.create.relate.) for example—we dream up an idea, then we create the idea, we make it, it comes into being, and then we share it or show it or tell it.
Here's what I'm deeply excited to explore with this creative attunement program:
The reason that’s so captivating to me is:
It allows us to dream about what we want to dream about, create what we want to create, and then, relate or connect or reach out where we want to reach out.
I believe, that when we allow these three buckets—dream, create, relate—to be engaged with separately, releasing the pressure for them to be connected or make sense, we become deeply rooted in what is happening right now.
Let’s begin by acknowledging the three different buckets of our creative process.
Let’s fill those up with what we’re currently doing, currently interested in, currently dreaming about, currently wanting to connect with others about.
Let's engage them as they are and I bet we will see the connections and even if we don’t we will both feed these buckets and be fed by them.
—in our dream life, in our creative, making life and in our relationships, our community engagement, our closeness with nature, our closeness with ourselves.
A healing balm for perfectionism, procrastination, isolation, feeling stuck, feeling overwhelmed, creative confusion, doubts, overthinking, or overacting.
Letting go of the grind, the perfection, the rules. Reprogramming how you talk to yourself about creativity and about being the best, most productive version of yourself.
A way to personally cope with and feel like you’re participating in positive change in the world and that you have agency in your life.
You already have all the knowledge and enough tools. Let yourself attune to your own creative process and timing.
Ultimately this is about being in dynamic presence.
Meet yourself within your creative process.
Meet others who long to reconnect with their creativity in a fresh, new, gentler way.
Tools to inquire, engage and connect you with YOUR current creative process such as free writing, mind mapping, visualization, imagery (collage, tarot/oracle cards), and stillness.
Sharing and encouragement among participants.
Permission to follow your heart.
“Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray.”
We’ll meet Saturdays (3/1, 3/8, 3/15, 3/22) from 10-11:30am PST.
You’ll need curiosity, kindness, and a desire to engage with your creative process.
Cost: $125 for 4 weeks.

2025 Visioning Workshop
A sacred pause at the turn of the year.
The end is also the beginning so we begin this workshop at the end. We won’t shy away from reflecting on what the year 2024 has brought us—the challenges, lessons, loss, opportunities, insights, grief, understandings, gifts and connections. It’s been a year!
In this workshop, I'll lead you through a reflection meditation, journaling prompts, a releasing ritual, visioning activities (dream boards, word of the year, year ahead spreads) and intention setting.

“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters, compared to what lies within us.”
Julia Cameron’s, The Artist’s Way, has lived on my bookshelves for more than ten years. I’ve read it, quoted from it, tried the famous “morning pages” and “artist’s dates,” and used its tools when working with my coaching clients BUT I’ve never given myself the time to do the full 12 week program all the way through.
“In a sense, as we are creative beings, our lives become our work of art.”
In July, I kept hearing a whisper to take the book down from my shelf. I also started craving the morning pages. At first I didn’t listen. I thought, well, it might be outdated—it was first published in 1992—and I never felt inspired by the cover. It’s amazing the things we can put in our own way. (I almost ordered a copy from England because I liked the cover better!)
Then one day, suddenly, the imperfection of my old copy was absolutely perfect. I grabbed some highlighters and began reading the introductory chapters. I let myself mark up the pages. I felt that tingling excitement that happens when I follow my intuition. By the time I got to the chapter, “Week One,” I knew two things:
I was going to start writing morning pages the following morning.
I wanted to share this journey—to do the 12 weeks in community.
Since I began my creativity coaching business in 2014 I have wanted to have a book club as part of it. Ten years later (!) the time is ripe—for me, for this particular book, and for the times we are in.
It’s easy to “get busy” and give up on this 12 week creative discipline practice. Believe me, I’ve done that many times.
There is support and accountability in doing it in a group.
With all the noise of the news, social media, and the constant chattering in our heads it’s so important to take a moment to stop, to check in, and to listen from the inside out.
This 12 week Artist’s Way program is the medicine I need right now to anchor into my inner wisdom, intuition, and creativity and I wonder if you’re wanting that too.
I can tell I’m in a larger transition right now—my first born is heading to college, I’ve been navigating menopause, and I’ll be finishing my master’s program in the next few quarters—and the rhythm and ritual of the “morning pages” and weekly “artist’s dates” and journal prompts feel like a way for me to meet myself in this new season of life.
How about you? Are you feeling the natural transition that occurs this time of year from Summer to Fall?
“If you think of the universe as a vast electrical sea in which you are immersed and from which you are formed, opening to your creativity changes you from something bobbing in that sea to a more full functioning, more conscious, more cooperative part of that ecosystem.”

In the final class of the series we bring together everything we've learned and...we play! I'll show you how to use multiple decks in a reading, what my daily tarot practice looks like, creative ways to use the cards, and we'll keep practicing reading simple spreads together. This class is empowering and fun. {There are lots of (virtual) high fives!}
*Note: This is the only class with a pre-requisite! You must have taken at least two of the other classes in the series to attend. This ensures that we have a shared language and foundation to expand and play with.
A few things you should know:
Please bring all your decks (just kidding, but if you have more than one please bring them) and something to take notes with.
Three hours goes by quicker than you can imagine in this interactive, online class. We’ll take a 20-minute break at the mid-point.
You’ll receive a Zoom link to attend class each week along with any provided materials.
Cost: 4 class series $175; ala carte classes $50
In this class we'll learn the major arcana by following the Fool's Journey. The major arcana represent the larger archetypal energies we encounter throughout our lives. We'll journey through the major arcana to learn the unique lessons and opportunities they hold for us. I'll leave time to practice reading the cards with new understandings.

In this class we'll look closely at the 40 numbered cards through the lens of basic numerology and elemental associations. The minor arcana represent everyday (the ordinary or mundane) situations we encounter and the feelings, thoughts, energies and worldly matters they mirror back to us. I love teaching this class!

Please join me for two Sunday mornings this Fall, September 18th and 25th for an introduction to reading with the traditional Marseille tarot.
In this class you'll learn:
what makes these old-style decks unique
where they came from (a little history and context)
techniques used to read the majors, court cards and the non-scenic pips (numbered cards)
how to do "open" readings and other ways to read the cards
I enjoy using these cards regularly in my practice and look forward to sharing what I've learned with you and why I have grown to appreciate the sometimes profound, often humorous, and beautifully mundane readings I get with them.
“I came away from class devoted to the pips with the exciting feeling of having been given the key to unlock meaning and interpret these cards for myself, with tools I already possess, no memorization of anything required. I find such powerful clarity, room for intuition, and concrete application in these old cards that are suddenly anything but static to me. Thank you! ”
My teaching style is conversational, fun, and informative. You'll receive a pdf of the basics of what we cover. I'll leave room at the end of each class to practice, discover, and grow more confident reading with this system in community with each other.
*Please bring to class a Marseille style deck (decks + resource list will be provided) and something to take notes with. We’ll take a 15 min. break in the middle of class.
**You’ll receive a Zoom link to attend class each week along with any provided materials.
