Her Sanctuary

Her Sanctuary is an in-person, sacred membership community, located in SE Portland, designed to connect you with yourself and other powerful women.

We offer a safe place to land, to deepen into sacred feminine practice, ceremony, and sisterhood.

What is Her Sanctuary?

Let me tell you. It's a temple. A lounge. A sacred social club. Tucked right here in SE Portland.

But more than any of that—it's a community that feels like home. A safe landing place to speak your voice and take up space. A spiritual community to match your feminine heart.

We gather for ritual, connection, tea, lounge time, and ceremony. A place where we deepen friendships and build true sisterhood. A home for feminine leaders to offer their gifts and services.

A place to belong.

After two decades of leading circles, mentoring women, and building communities, the next evolution of my work revealed itself—Her Sanctuary.

It's community and connection and a sense of belonging. It feels like a deep sigh of relief. It's women supporting women and bringing back the ancient practice of devoted sisterhood, ceremony, and ritual.

It's remembering who we are—strong, courageous, empowered, wise women—and having a space to speak our truth. This is a community of care. It's like a church for the sacred feminine.

Her Sanctuary is the living embodiment of The Practice—a temple for women to remember who they are, together.

If this sounds like something your soul has been longing for, you're not alone. So many of us are.

What if belonging didn't require a decision right away?

What if you could simply show up, settle in, and let yourself feel what it's like to be held in community—without needing to know where it's all going?

That's exactly what Welcome Month is for.

It's not about committing or deciding anything. It's simply a container—a gentle place to land after your first experience with us.

It's a time to return. To come back into the space. To feel what it's like to arrive more than once. To let your body recognize familiarity.

It's a time to root. To move slowly. To settle in. To let connection grow organically, without rushing or needing to know where it's all going.

And it's a time to feel before deciding. There's no pressure to join anything beyond this month. No expectations. Just an invitation to listen to your own inner yes or no, in your own time.

During Welcome Month, you're invited to attend three gatherings of your choice, and you'll also receive a guest pass so you can bring someone you love to experience the space with you.

This month is designed to be low-commitment and low-pressure—an open door rather than a contract.

If it feels nourishing to stay a little longer, we'd love to have you. And if it doesn't, that's okay too. You are always welcome here.

If you're ready to step in, comment ME below and I'll personally send you the invite to start your journey with us.

With love and an open door,
Michelle

Do you see all these pillows? All this bright, natural light pouring in?

This is the perfect space for lounging. For brewing tea and letting it all fall away. A feeling of sanctuary. A home. A cool place to gather.

And it's also the perfect space for Cozy Co-Working.

Because sometimes we need more than just a place to work. We need a place that holds us while we work. Somewhere soft. Somewhere warm. Somewhere we can focus without the isolation of being alone.

That's what we've created here.

Our next Cozy Co-Working is this Tuesday, April 7th at 10am. Can't make it? No worries—we have another on April 28th.

Hosted by the lovely Francine G (), this is a gentle, welcoming space to focus, create, and get things done in the company of other women. Bring your laptop, journal, or creative project and settle into the warmth of the Sanctuary. Light music, tea, and a supportive atmosphere help you stay inspired and on track.

Work quietly. Take breaks to connect. Enjoy the simple magic of being in sisterhood.

A way to get out of the house, get something done, and feel held while you do it.

We are gathering tomorrow, on Easter, for Sanctuary Sunday.

We are gathering in Sacred Feminine ceremony, on purpose.

Easter is a story we have been told is about resurrection.

But I find myself wondering…

Where are the women in this story?

The women were there.

But their stories were not carried forward, just as our stories have not been carried forward through millennia.

And right now, I believe…

There is a resurrection of the Sacred Feminine.
Our stories, Her story, returning from the underworld and coming back into the light.

We are the resurrection.

Something is waking up inside and through each of us.

The Sacred Feminine rising, returning to life through our bodies, our voices, our remembering.

This is why we gather.

To remember what was lost and forgotten.
To reconnect to what has always been within us.
And to feel what is beginning to rise again.

This Sunday at Sanctuary Sunday, on Easter, we gather in this spirit.

To be with the women.
To remember our truth.
To remember our story.

If you feel the call, come join us.

Women have been gathering in sacred circles for thousands of years. It's in our blood to gather in sacred practice and remember our truth and inner power.

Unfortunately, the culture we live in and the systems built around us have taken us away from each other and disconnected us from our truth.

Sanctuary Sunday is a returning to and nourishment of our soul roots as women.

If you are a soulful woman who desires connection, community, and Sacred Feminine practice, I would love for you to join us.

Led by me, Michelle Young, this sacred feminine ceremony is a returning home. A cathartic experience of ritual and connection—a blend of feminine spirituality, self-devotion, and deep sisterhood.

We keep our circles intimate, open to just a small group of women, so we feel safe to go deep in our sacred container.

Together, we get quiet. We dive underneath the chaos and listen to our own voice. We refuel and reclaim our lives through deep guided meditation, ceremony, and connection. We gain inspiration to step more fully into who we truly are and lead with devotion to ourselves.

This April, I'm hosting two Sanctuary Sundays:
🌸 Sunday, April 5th
🌸 Sunday, April 19th

10am–12pm (lounge open until 1pm)
📍 Her Sanctuary | 2505 SE 11th Ave, Portland

Your first visit is 50% off—just $27.50. A gentle invitation to step inside and feel the magic we co-create together.

If you’re feeling the call, comment “ME” below and I'll personally send you the details.

See you at our next ceremony.

With love and gratitude,
Michelle

April is here. And with it, the soft pull toward blooming.

There's something about this month that feels like an exhale after a long winter—the light stretches a little longer, the earth begins to soften, and somewhere inside us, something stirs.

If you've been feeling the call to gather, to slow down, to be held in sisterhood… this is your invitation.

Whether you're new and curious or ready to go deeper, our Welcome Month is a gentle way to step inside—three events + a guest pass to explore the rhythm of Her Sanctuary.

Comment APRIL below and we'll send you the link to explore our calendar and reserve your spot.

We can't wait to welcome you.

With love,
Michelle

Hi! I'm Michelle.

I am the founder of Her Sanctuary for Women and I wanted to introduce myself since there are a lot of new people here. I've been studying and leading women in the deepest of ways for the last twenty+ years. I know who we are and what we need.

I am a priestess, a spiritual mentor, a teacher, and a community builder. An entrepreneur, master ceremonialist, facilitator, writer, yogi, and soul midwife. But more than any title, I am a woman devoted to one thing: bringing us together.

Because what I've learned, after two decades of holding space, after earning my Master's Degree, after running a women's yoga and healing center for ten years, after studying the Divine Feminine through the 13 Moon Mystery School… is simple.

What women want, and what we need, is simple. We need each other.

I've had a front-row seat to the lives of thousands of women. I've witnessed our exhaustion, our fear, our desires. And I've witnessed the beauty, strength, and wisdom that surfaces when we gather.

Now, Her Sanctuary exists as a home for all of this. A place to gather, to soften, to remember who we are beneath the noise.

I would love for you to be a part of this sacred community. Come visit us!

There's a particular kind of magic that lives in this space when the sun goes down.

The candles flicker. The pillows invite you to sink in. The light is low and warm, and for a few hours, the world outside softens its grip.

This is Late Night Lounge at Her Sanctuary.

A moonlit gathering for the feminine soul. A sacred speakeasy, if you will—where there's no agenda, no pressure, nothing to perform. Just space to arrive exactly as you are.

I created this evening for all of it—the exhaustion you're carrying, the wonder you haven't made time for, the grief that needs witnessing, the hope that's quietly blooming. All of it belongs here.

And this month, we're honored to have Francine G () holding this space with us. Founder of Luminous Energy, she guides women through art, energy, and sound to reclaim their bodies and awaken their authentic power. Her presence will weave through the evening with softness, wisdom, and care.

We'll put out tarot cards, brew warm tea, and let the music play softly in the background. Just a space to hang. To exhale. To be in the gentle company of other women.

This is what I long for us to feel here: a soul home. An authentic sisterhood. A stunning space to connect, to remember, to rise together.

🍵 Temple Lounge
Thursday, March 26 • 7–10pm

We'll leave the candles burning for you.

With love,
Michelle

“Be with the women. Be with the women.”

These words have been echoing in my heart like a drumbeat lately.

There is so much happening in the world right now. Many of us are feeling it in our bodies and our nervous systems. A sense that something is shifting.

And on a personal level, many women are being called to let go of old ways of being. Old patterns. Old relationships. Old beliefs.

We are being asked to step more fully into who we truly are.

In moments like this, I keep hearing the same message:

Be with the women.

Because through each other we remember.

We remember sisterhood.
We remember community.
We remember the ancient rhythm of gathering in circle, sharing our prayers, our grief, our laughter, and our truth.

This is why Her Sanctuary exists.

A place to slow down.
A place to soften.
A place to remember who we are together.

If your heart has been longing for deeper connection and sacred community, the doors are open.

✨ Our Spring Opening Pass is still available: $55 for any two events this month. Swipe to see the remaining events!

If this message resonates, you already know.

Be with the women.

"It's in spaces like these that the matriarchy is born." — Michelle Young⁠
⁠
This quote has been sitting in my heart lately. Because it's true. The new world wanting to be born isn't being built in corporate boardrooms or our dysfunctional politics. It’s being woven in circles like ours. In soft, sacred spaces where women gather, tell the truth, and remember who they are.
⁠
When we come together in devotion, something shifts. Not just inside each of us, but in the collective. This is how we heal the lineage. This is how we rise.
⁠
And you're invited to be part of it.

Come visit us this week. Our next offerings are:
🔮 Tarot & Tea - March 12th
☕ Open House + Pop-up Coffee & Lounge - March 14th
🎤 Her Song led by Fernanda - March 15th
⁠
If you're new and not sure where to start, our Spring Opening Pass is still available—just $55 for any two events this month.⁠
⁠
Come feel what we're creating. Dream into what is wanting to be born.
⁠
Comment ME below and we'll send you the link to join us 🤍⁠

With love and fierce devotion,⁠
Michelle⁠

Want your practice to be the top-listed Clinic in Walnut Creek?

Sacred Movement. Self Love. Sisterhood.

THE PRACTICE® IS

To show up just as you are, imperfect, messy, raw and beautiful. To find stillness, even in the storms. To be open and vulnerable, because there you will find you are not alone. To say No. To commit to yourself over and over again. To ask for what you need. To remember to breathe, even in the challenge. To connect deeply with other women. To give yourself permission to dream. To say Yes to your desires and believe that you are worth it. To fiercely follow your passions and let out your roar. To love yourself. To fall in love with your body just as it is. To lift the veil of perfection and remember who you truly are.
