Reweaving the Web of Life

Coaching · Workshops · Retreats

Emergent Journeys offers coaching, spiritual accompaniment, and retreat design for those navigating transformation. Drawing from my formation in theology, cosmology, ecology, restorative justice, the Work that Reconnects, Nonviolent Communication, hypnosis, and the arts, we work together to help live lives more fully, courageously, and creatively. My approach is grounded in presence, ethical imagination, and practices that heal disconnection—within and beyond the self. Finding our voices and gifts, we participate more fully in the co-creation of a life-giving world. Whether you're moving through grief or growth, longing for deeper community, or seeking clarity in your next chapter, Emergent Journeys is a space for attuning to the threads that hold you—and the sacred web you're helping to weave.

Grit and Grace
Coaching for Becoming the Truest You

Growth isn’t always pretty.
It’s found in the soil—the broken, the bent, the weathered. The grit is the struggle; the grace is the bloom that follows.

Here, we embrace both.
We honor the scars, the work, the mess. Together, we clear the rubble, plant what’s ready to grow, and nurture what’s still taking root.

This isn’t about quick fixes.
It’s about digging deep, unearthing your truths, and creating space for your most authentic self to rise.

You bring the story. I’ll bring the guidance, the soil, and the tools.
We’ll grow your next chapter—together.
