Channeller of animal & spirit consciousness I explore life from a place where living with another is about a relationship, a co-existence, a partnership. I explore life with a dog as a teaching, a lesson and experience of what it is like to live with another animal. My work, teachings, knowledge, experience and qualifications teach you how to live your best life with your dog. This is not from a place of expecting your dog to do what you want them to do or have been told how your dog should behave. This is from a place of understanding your dog, understanding yourself and how best to support your dog in all aspects. It's about how you nourish yourself in the same way. I have created this FREE e-book so you can explore seven ways to connect with your dog and understand what they are feeling. When you feel like you don't know what to do. When you feel like you have failed your dog or that your dog is not doing what you except go them, here you get to break free from the judgment, blame and frustration you place on your dog and yourself and explore what it truly means to co-exist with your dog and how to live your best life with them,

I am passionate about soul work and how to offer various ways (bite size and intense) for you to live as the sacred soul you are alongside the sacred soul your dog is. I and we wish for you to live from sacred and soul consciousness with your animal friend and all that you are connected to in the seen and unseen.

This is why ceremony and being in ceremony has everything to do with deepening your co-existence, consciousness and connection with your animal friend.

If you wish to explore how to live from soul with your animal friend I have various offerings - my journeying circle is just a taste of this.

I look forward to being in this circle with you.

Are you afraid of when you animal friend will transition?

Do you feel guilt, shame, grief, sadness, empty and uncertain how your animal friend is now that they have transitioned?

Would you like to explore how to heal, honour, create ceremony and maintain connection with your animal friend when they transition?

Would you like to know what it feels like to make your animal friend’s transition sacred and explore your soul work your animal friend offers you to enter with them through their transition?

Would you like to understand your animal friend’s transition from the soul work that it is, how to be with it, how to honour it and how to heal with it?

My next Creating Ceremony and Sacred Space for your Animal Friend’s Transition begins 30th November.

Over nine sessions we meet online where we give tenderness, ceremony, sacred, healing, soul work and connection for when our animal friend transitions or if they have already and what it means for us.

They do not have to be in physical form for you to be part of this offering - it is always perfect in how they bring you to such places and we will explore the messages and medicine their transition brings for you.

If you would like to be part of this container or would like more information comment with a 🐶 and I will share more.

Transition ultimately is about grief work and grief work is ultimately about soul work - your animal friend is inviting you to explore this through their transition and enter sacred ground with them.

Here, you will see how they never left but only transformed so that, through their transition, they can bring you in to these heightened states of consciousness that they know you are ready for and want for you!

If you would like to honour your animal friend and their transition and what this means for them and you, then this offering is for you.

07/10/2025

Your animal friend holds such presence, not only from living in the present moment but because they never left sacred ground.

Yet we did.

Your animal friend continues to exist in the sacred that they are and the sacred we exist with, including the sacred we are.

Your animal friend is so present, so connected, so in tune with their animal body they are in because they live in their body, not their mind, and feel, love and know the sacred temple their body is that holds the sacred they are.

Our animal friends are asking us to return to sacred with them.

This includes becoming present in our own sacred body, honouring it as sacred and the sacred temple our body is.

Our animal friends never wish to be anything else than what they are and how their body is. They never ask to be something else or wish their body to be different; they love the sacred temple they are in.

But, do we love the sacred temple we are in?

Do we even consider our body or their body as a sacred temple?

How often do we say unkind things to our body or even that of our animal friends, wishing we or they were different in some way.

You and your animal friend are perfect exactly as you are. You are in your divine sacred temple and this is what your animal friend shows you each day.

Presence - yes, but present because they walk fully in their animal body and value all parts of their sacred temple.

It’s time to stop all the worry, all the unkind talk, all the ways we expect, want, think or believe we or our animal friends have to be different.

It’s time to realise all that our animal friends are and how they reflect our soul work as a soul reflection back to us.

It’s time to live from sacred with our animal friends and walk with them as the sacred temples we and they are.

Curious? Let me show you!

Grief!

Like a poultice, our animal friends are powerfully capable of pulling up and out the grief that we carry and have been carrying for so long.

It’s not just about our grief experienced from when they transition, but that is where they wish for us to start and how they wish for our grief journey to have the attention it needs.

The way in is through ceremony; for their transition, for your grief and for yourself as the grief unfolds. The way in is to access sacred and make contact with soul.

Would you like to join me and nine other sacred animal guardians as we explore your animal friend’s transition, no matter when it was or will be.

On 30th November I will begin my Creating Ceremony and Sacred Space for Your Animal Friend’s Transition online offering over nine sessions.

Here is what a previous sacred animal guardian had to share about this offering:

“This course is probably one of the most precious gifts you can give yourself and your beloved animal companion. One of those gifts that changes you and that continues to surprise you every day. It is a real experience that lasts after the sessions are completed. I have been trying to understand "the why's" and to rationalize for soooo long, in an attempt to soothe deep wounds. Thanks to this journey I started to let my heart show me the way and have been able to initiate a healing journey, much more profound than I ever had imagined. Of course, there is still work to be done, but I feel lighter and stronger, more equipped. Of course there will still be tears the day that my beloved animal companions transition, but I feel more at peace with that idea now and I know I will have the resources to face it.

Isla is one of the most compassionate and authentic human beings I had the chance to meet on earth. She is very passionate and knowledgeable in many many fields and has the gift of communicating this to her audience, it's a pleasure to benefit from her teachings. I feel so grateful our paths crossed and I warmly recommend her offerings."

Comment with a 🐶 to book your spot or receive more information about my next creating ceremony and sacred space for your animal friend’s transition that begins on 30th November.

Because “death is perfectly safe” and our animal friends want us to feel this for their transition so that we know the deeper meaning, medicine, connection and honouring that can be done for when this comes or for if it has already been.

Your animal friend doesn’t care about their life span - they care about their SOUL span!Our animal friends do not exist ...
27/09/2025

Your animal friend doesn’t care about their life span - they care about their SOUL span!

Our animal friends do not exist from days, weeks, months, years or “how long do they have left” or even how long they are supposed to live for.

To them, this is irrelevant. What is relevant to them is the time we spend with them and where we are focusing our time with them.

They do not ask for “more time” but simply to have more time with us - the very thing that we are seeking, stretching, obsessing and even panicking over when that time comes for our animal friend to transition.

Here, we lose the very time we want with our animal friend and they lose the very time they want to have with us too; present time.

When our animal friend drops out of their body, they still exist - just as we do. Whilst the life span is finite, the soul span is infinite and this is where our animal friends exist from; of who they are, all they are, what they have been, go back to and will be again.
We are all soul. That is our true nature.

It is not our responsibility to keep our animal friends in their life span for any longer than they are to be in it.

It is our responsibility to offer them a good life and, in so doing, offer them a good transition back to spirit. Life is sacred and so is a transition. When we are able to co-exist with our animal friends from soul span, we can offer them a sacred life and a sacred transition by existing in the moment with them. In this way, their transition becomes a continuation of the moment where we can contemplate the infinite soul span and infinite soul existence with our animal friend.

To honour the soul of our animal friend, the sacred they are and the sacred their transition is requires ceremony. The grief that will naturally come when our animal friend travels and expands back to being pure soul also requires ceremony.

We can make their transition one of the most sacred moments we experience with them, as too, we can our grief journey.

The transition of our animal friend is a continuation of their soul span and our soul span together. The transition of our animal friend is a healing salve for what our soul span is ready for that can only come with our animal friend's transition; we are never told this, right?

They do not wish to lose any valuable moments with us when their transition comes and neither do we. Yet, panicking, obsessing and focusing on the time we have left with them is the very thing that distracts us from having this time with them.

If you’d like to explore your animal friend’s transition in another way, a better way, a sacred way and the infinite soul span of your animal friend’s existence with you and your grief journey they are inviting your soul span to go on, then my next Creating Ceremony and Sacred Space for your Animal Friend’s Transition begins 30th Nov.

It is sacred, it is ceremony, it is healing, it is soul expanding, it is witnessing and it is medicine for your grief journey as you navigate your soul span with your animal friend.

Here is what a previous animal guardian had to share of her experience about this offering:

"This course is probably one of the most precious gifts you can give yourself and your beloved animal companion. One of those gifts that changes you and that continues to surprise you every day.

25/09/2025

Our animal friends are asking us to open our hearts. Here, we will truly meet and know of them; here, we will truly meet and know of ourselves.

Our animal friends know who they are and of this life. They wish for us to feel the expansive nature of existence, our existence, their existence and of our divine authority over self; not over them or any other, but of ourself.

Our animal friends wish for us to remember the continued cycle of our lives together and the soul that they are, the soul that we are. They wish for us to exist from soul contact with them.

To do so requires us to open our hearts - something that our animal friends are great at doing.

One way they know how to blow open our heart is from their transition - their moving out of the physical body and back to the unseen and the timing, circumstance and preparation for this.

This is their gift to us.

When our hearts are blown open in this way it requires attention, ceremony and a call to action. Their transition is so much more than we are told, taught or believe and how we are told to be with it.

In some way, our animal friends know their transition is the only way that our hearts will be blown open wide enough so that we return to sacred ground with them, powerfully and painfully so.

Their transition is an invitation for us, an initiation that they know we are ready for.

Their transition requires a ceremony.

Our grief requires a ceremony.

The medicine that their transition offers and what the very consciousness of grief invites us to explore for our soul work and continued connection with them, with sacred and with our own hurts is the initiation we are called to, from our animal friend.

If you wish to explore the sacred that is both of and is your animal friend’s transition, how to create ceremony for it, for them and for yourself and explore the medicine they bring for you in your grief journey and healing of it to ultimately open your heart, then my next Creating Ceremony and Sacred Space for your Animal Friend’s Transition begins on 30th November.

Over nine sessions we intimately journey together bringing sacred to grief, transition and sorrow and giving them the attention, love, warmth and ceremony they require and have always asked for; to simply be included, integrated and seen as sacred.

Here is what a previous participant had to share of their experience:

"Isla helped me through my grief and opened me to new ways of honouring my dog’s spirit. The class is an essential experience for anyone grieving or preparing for the loss of a beloved pet. It was supportive, beautifully designed and deeply healing. From the magical package I received to the weekly Zoom sessions, ceremonies and guided journeys - every detail reflected her dedication. Our sessions, rituals, and group sharing helps transform loss into connection and new beginnings. The workbook and clear format made it easy to follow. The friendships formed with classmates continue today. Together we learned to see loss not as an ending, but as a new beginning.

Whether you are grieving a recent loss or carrying old heartbreak, this course empowers you to honour your beloved pet’s life and spirit while finding peace in your own grief and/or guilt. Truly worth the investment - I highly recommend it."

Whether their transition happened a long time ago or is yet to happen, this offering applies to you and to your animal friend's transition, that they are bringing your attention to here. Their transition and your grief both deserve to be honoured in the right way, a sacred way.

Comment with a “❤” if you would like to claim your place on this offering and be in ceremony with your animal friend in a way you never thought you could, knew how to or was needed.

I look forward to sitting in this sacred space with you, with your animal friend and witnessing all that we will journey through together.

24/09/2025

I've just held a beautiful sacred spirit ceremony for the guardian of this dear canine who is now in spirit.

The spirit that was this animal shared a guided healing for the guardian that was both heart healing and heart opening, along with beautiful words to a poem/song they shared that they named Sacred Beauty (to open the heart).

We sat in the highest frequency of sound, light, divine and sacred rose as the spirit that was this animal guided me in the heart opening healing they shared with me.

Their sacred symbol was also received and shared with the guardian as well as imagery of how they are in spirit.

The spirit that was this animal also shared the most wonderful channelled message where imagery was used to explain metaphorically about how they and the guardian are still and always will be connected. Here they gave the example of being in a speed boat that exists in the same waters as a rowing boat but can travel much faster. The analogy here is that the human/physical moves at the speed of a rowing boat but spirit/unseen moved at the speed of a speed boat. Both are still in the same waters/the same plane but are travelling at different speeds.

The spirit that was this animal shared that they and the guardian could continue to connect, meet and speak.

How?

Just like boats do - by turning on their radio and sharing their location. The spirit that was this animal shared that this is the radio, the transmitter, of the heart.

That the guardian needs to turn on the radio that is their heart.

I am receiving so many downloads, insights and invitations to share how our animal friends are here to open our hearts and return us to sacred ground whilst they also do their own frequency work on earth.

I'll be sharing more about this soon.

If you want to explore more with me and how to enter sacred ground with your animal friend and return to making contact with soul and spirit I'd love to share my offerings with you!

✨ Are you longing to feel a deep connection with sacred again? ✨

Are you feeling the pull to enter sacred ground and remember the deep truth of who you are?

Do you wish to make contact with soul and experience all that is within you and your connection to all that is without of you?

Do you wish to open your heart, give warmth to the parts that you have denied warmth to for so long and give love to all parts of your self?

🔥Do you wish to be warmed by the spirit fire that can open your heart, lead you in to sacred ground and make contact with sacred, with soul and with self?🔥

Do you wish to sit with the fire, ask and receive the medicine he has to offer you and walk upon him to tend to the real fire walks that are showing up in your life.

To enter this Conversation with Fire requires ceremony.

To tend to the parts of self that need warmth requires ceremony.

To open and soften the heart and make soul contact requires ceremony.

To receive medicine from all that love and support us, such as our old friend fire, requires ceremony.

The fire is an old and ancient ancestor that holds wisdom, medicine, healing and transformation for us.

All we have to do is show up.

The real fire walks of our life are scary, they can feel uncomfortable and we may not be conscious of how to be with them.

All that requires of us is to show up and enter sacred ground to guide us.

There are many ways to do so. Entering sacred with fire can be one of the most powerful, potent and alchemising ceremonies to meet yourself, receive from the unseen and be met by soul.

🔥On the 24th October we will be doing just that as we enter Conversations with Fire.🔥

The fire is calling you to come and sit behind him so that he can offer his medicine to you and what he has to give you.

If you would like to experience being in a small, intimate circle where we build ceremony to enter sacred ground, touch our soul and tend to the real firewalks of our life through calling upon fire and fully receiving the medicine it knows we need then I would love for you to join us.

I LOVE bringing people to the fire in this way and witnessing what each one receives, achieves and believes what they didn’t think was possible!

Comment with “🧡” if you want to enter conversations with fire on the 24th October, tend to your soul and experience what a sacred fire ceremony can bring to open your heart.

Ahhhhhh…

I’ve not long returned from the most wonderful, magical, powerful and medicinal three day ceremony where I was teaching and leading a ceremony with other incredible ceremonial facilitators, who I also look up to and see as my teachers.

What I offered was the most incredible fire ceremony and Firewalk. I feel it was my best yet and the fire offered so much to the circle.

I also taught about how our animal friends are our teachers, inviting us to return and enter sacred ground with them and open our hearts fully once again so we can make contact within soul. The fire also teaches us this message of opening our hearts and offering the world our sacred soul fragrance, that is unique to each and everyone of us. Such a rich teaching I received about this myself over the weekend.

This teaching from our animal friends was such a beautiful teaching that I will be offering this in other ways as part of the ceremonial work and teachings I offer for your soul work and connection with sacred.

This Sunday, as a way to honour our unique soul and the unique soul of our animal friends, enter sacred ground with them and receive healing in whatever way spirit knows we need and has for us, I will be holding an online medicine circle.

We’ll meet at 7pm UK time and you can offer a donation to be part of the circle this Sunday, 28th September:

15/09/2025

Would you like to receive your animal friend's sacred symbol?!

I'm having so much fun being with the consciousness of your animal friends, journeying with them to the "land of sacred symbols" and receiving the sacred symbol of your animal friend.

I usually receive your animal friend's sacred symbol as part of my more intimate and in depth sacred ceremonies for your animal friend, whether they are alive, soon to transition of have transitioned.

But, I get so much wonderful feedback about how an animal guardian feels when they receive the sacred symbol of their animal friend, that I also created this as a separate offering.

The universe and soul speaks in symbols and we all have a unique symbol that is sacred and special to us - you, your animal friend, each plant, each tree, each stone.

Whether in their body or in spirit, your animal’s sacred symbol is something for you to have and be with forever more.

There is no rule, no instruction, no right or wrong way to be or play with their symbol and it is an invitation to open you up in to your imagination, play, intuition and connection with them and divine consciousness.

There are endless ways you can be with their sacred symbol, including:

🐶 Meditating with it
🐶 Working with it to offer your animal healing
🐶 Have it engraved on their collar
🐶 Place it under their water and/or food bowl
🐶 Use it as a way to connect and communicate with the soul consciousness of your animal friend
🐶 Make wall art from it
🐶 Have it made as a tattoo (for yourself...not your animal friend!)

In fact, so many animal guardians proudly share a photo to me of their first ever tattoo, which is the sacred symbol of their animal friend!

I just love the endless creativity that an animal guardian is pulled in to by playing with the sacred symbol of their animal friend and the joy, fun and connection they feel from doing so; we are to live from unlimited creativity after all.

The ways you can be with your animal’s sacred symbol is infinite - just like you and your animal friend are!

I’ve received sacred symbols for hundreds of animals, each one being different.

As the symbols I receive are sacred and unique to each animal, it is not respectful to sacred or soul to share them here and to honour them. But, here is what animal guardians have been sharing upon receiving the sacred symbol of their animal friend:

"These are such beautiful symbols! I don't know where to start!💛⭐️ They definitely need to be incorporated into my life for guidance and love and I will armour up for them. I would love these put into art and tattoos"

"Ah thank you so much. [My dog's] symbol feels so familiar. I love how a lemur appeared too. The smells just seem so her - soft and sweet. [My second dog's] symbol was a surprise (not sure why) but it is so her... very sure and contained. The smell is very interesting. She is my protector and opened spiritual doors for me. I love them. I've never wanted tattoos but there is a good chance these will become part of me. There's a definite pull."

There is no need for us to meet for me to receive your animal friend's sacred symbol!

All I need is a photo of your animal friend and I will sit with their consciousness, journey with them and receive their sacred symbol.

I’ll draw it out, take a photo of it and send it over to you where you will be free to create, be, move, speak, dance, paint, speak to, dream with or whatever else you would like to do and explore with your animal friend's sacred symbol as a way to enter this way that life speaks to us - in symbols, signs and imagery!

It also makes a great gift, what with Christmas coming up, if you wish to gift something unique, personal and meaningful for someone for Christmas! I'll only have a certain amount of slots available to do these for Christmas gifts.
