I tell them that we can choose to be perfect and admired or to be real and
loved. We must decide.

If we choose to be perfect and admired, we must send our representatives out
to live our lives. If we choose to be real and loved, we must send out our true,
tender selves. That’s the only way, because to be loved we have to be known.
If we choose to introduce our true selves to anyone, we will get hurt. But we will
be hurt either way. There is pain in hiding and pain outside of hiding. The pain
outside is better because nothing hurts as bad as not being known. The irony is
that our true selves are tougher than our representatives are. My tender self
was never weak at all. She was made to survive the pain of love. My tenderness
is my strength. Turns out that I never needed to hide. I was a Warrior all along.
— Glennon Doyle Melton, Love Warrior
The relationship between healer and healed is a relationship between equals.
— Pema Chodron
The most important thing each of us can know is our own unique gift and how to use it in the world. Individuality is cherished and nurtured, because, in order for the whole to flourish, each of us has to be strong in who we are and carry our gifts with conviction, so they can be shared with others
— Robin Wall Kimmerer

  • I use a trust-based sliding scale framework that recognizes we each hold different levels of financial access and systemic privilege. Please read the tiers below and choose the rate that feels most honest for your current situation.

    Sustainer Rate

    The high end of the sliding scale. Choose this rate if you have financial stability and access to resources that allow you to comfortably meet your needs.
    You might:

    • Have steady income, savings, or generational support

    • Own property or have investments

    • Travel or purchase non-essentials with ease

    • Want to support others’ access to this work

    This rate helps keep the practice sustainable and allows me to offer reduced-cost spots to others.

    Standard Rate

    The middle of the sliding scale. Choose this rate if you are covering your needs but with limited flexibility.
    You might:

    • Have steady or moderate income, but little savings

    • Carry some debt or face financial trade-offs

    • Afford basic needs and small extras, but not without effort/planning

    • Benefit from paying a fair rate while still honoring your budget

    This is the true cost of the service and reflects the baseline needed to sustain the work.

    Supported Rate

    Choose this rate if you are experiencing financial hardship or systemic barriers to wealth or stability.
    You might:

    • Have difficulty meeting basic needs (rent, food, bills)

    • Be unemployed, underemployed, or in a major life transition

    • Have significant debt or no financial safety net

    • Rely on this reduced rate to access support

    This tier is made possible by those paying at higher levels.

your menstrual cycle isn’t just a hormonal rhythm – It’s a system for greater emotional, mental, physical and spiritual insight, healing, Purpose and Vitality

The menstrual cycle has been shrouded in mystery, stigma and silence for centuries.

As a result, we as menstruators have grown up and live disconnected from our cycle and the inherent wisdom and power it carries to guide us to our truest and fullest lives: health, authenticity, vitality, inner leadership, purpose, connection.

This disconnection is not only holding us back from reaching our full potential in life, but also causing serious health issues at the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual level.

In Learning to follow your cycle you will Learn to:

  • Understand your body deeply — beyond the surface-level education most of us received.

  • Find real relief from pain and symptoms — body, mind, heart and spirit, learn to use your cycle as a guide back to inner alignment and health.

  • Build healthy, sustainable and productive rhythms — in rest, nourishment, work, stress, relationships, diet, exercise and more.

  • Use natural cycle awareness — for family planning, birth control, and deeper alignment with your fertility and choice.

  • Strengthen your relationships — understand and communicate cyclical needs clearly in service of authentic connection

  • Experience the cycle as a path of spiritual awakening — a monthly rhythm to connect you with ritual, meaning, intuition, inner guidance, and connection to the greater rhythms and spirit of life.

  • Increase your capacity — to embrace love, joy and pleasure in your life as well as navigate complex challenges with nuance, resilience, and self-trust in an ever-changing world.

  • Fall in love with your life and self — discover your cycle, align with your needs, embrace your seasons, uncover your truest self, passion and vitality

  • Find your voice — shed old and limiting stories, stop apologizing for taking up space, reclaim your voice, your confidence, your power

  • Be a part of community — connect with other menstruators seeking emotional maturity, holistic health, grounded spirituality, feminine wisdom, conscious, empowered, compassionate living

  • Honor Ancestors and the rhythms of life — connect with the deep wisdom of the cycle, its reflection of the greater rhythms of life and death, and the thread to ancestors it holds its spirals

Hello and Welcome

My name is Rae (she/her).

I have been working deeply with the menstrual cycle for over 15 years.

My work is highly integrative and combines my years of study and work in psychology, neuroscience (BA Neuroscience, Kenyon College; MA Somatic Psychology, CIIS in progress), trauma informed nervous system regulation, somatic healing, authentic movement, cycle science, transformative education and leadership (Outward Bound and Berkeley’s Lawrence Hall of Science), small scale, sustainable farming, wilderness therapy, rites of passage + vision fasts, sacred sexuality and dance, BodyDreaming (Marion Dunlea), Waldorf and earth based wisdoms, and more.

I combine all these experiences, and my own deep and personal experience tracking and learning from my own cycle, to meet you on your cyclical journey and guide you into deeper attunement, connection and vitality.

I am so honored and excited that you are here.
