Friendship, companionship, collaboration and inspiration.
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
Today I am reflecting on and celebrating my long and ever evolving relationship with
We first met in Tofino in 2005. I attended her class at the Botanical Gardens, and instantly felt her warmth and authenticity. We became instant friends. Since then we have travelled a serendipitously parallel path, and are finally teaching our first offering together.
🔥🔥🔥🔥Hearthfire🔥🔥🔥🔥
A Soulful Gathering for Deep Autumn
Nov 22 & 23
130-730pm dailybody
This offering infuses poetry, myth, expressive arts, mindfulness and somatic practices. Over two days we will explore what it means to walk through the dark with one another.
We have been dreaming this into being for a long time, and part of what makes this gathering so special is the friendship at its heart.
We inspire one another and share a deep devotion to crafting beauty out of both light and shadow.
To be in the creative field together, alongside others willing to step into the unknown, is what lights us both up.
We chose the name Hearthfire because we want the weekend to feel like entering a warm, lamplit room while the wind howls outside, a place where stories are shared, silence is honoured, and no one has to journey alone.
A hearth is not just a fire; it is a center. A place of return. A gathering point where warmth, nourishment, and belonging are tended into being through care and presence.
That is the kind of nest we are preparing. A soft place to land. A space to remember that even in the dark seasons of life, there is companionship.
If this offering entices you, there are still a few available spaces. We’d love to have you.
