Depression as a Spiritual Awakening

honestly, where do I even begin? The last few years - a knock you out kind of doozy. You know? Bottom line. Humbled.

I went dark, I went deep, I got super real with myself and the people in my life. Then squeezed myself through a very uncomfortable birth canal, so I could come back to LIFE! Worth it. So so worth it. My life has transformed.

And talk about that crucible… you know the one we get into so that we can rise from the ashes. It’s the worst. Getting out of it - kind of the best. But in it. Definitely the worst.

So I’m here. As me. With an offering.

I’m trained as a medicine woman AND a social worker. I’ve been trying to blend all of this with my me-ness for a long time. The wildest part - while in the dark, I put all of it down. My training, my attachment to the titles, what I thought it was supposed to look like. All of it. And here, on the other side of the undoing, is my first offering from this new place. An emergent blend, where we incorporate our unique spiritual nature with mental health and the challenge of being human.

If I went through that kind of undoing, the least I can do is serve it up in its beauty to people who may benefit. So here we are. Depression as a Spiritual Awakening. It’s my combination of being human, meeting life’s pain, listening deeply, and allowing it to inform us so that we can walk through to the other side.

Here’s where you can learn more.

Either way, know anyone having a hard time or curious about working with me or just needs some support? Please send this their way.

With great love,
