howdy y’all, my name is Rose~


Remember when you were a kid, and (probably) less self-censored than you are now? Perhaps you can’t even remember that far back, but almost certainly there was a time in your life where you self-expressed shamelessly, if only for a few months or years. 

You experienced your emotions, you expressed your opinions, you advocated for and (to the best of your ability did) what you wanted, all while being a beacon of love…

I want to support you getting in touch with that part of yourself.

As we age, we learn to self-censor, to cater to what we perceive other people want from us, to create an identity based on who others tell us we are… Sometimes the explicit and implicit directions we’re given are empowering, meaning they’re true to our form. Sometimes, they’re not. 

As conscious, personally responsible adults we have constant opportunities to break ourselves down and build ourselves back up. This is always happening, whether we’re aware of it or not. As Carl Jung said, “Until we make the unconscious conscious it will control our lives and we will call it fate.” 

So let’s make ourselves conscious, shall we?  Let’s seek, knock, and find all the big pictures and tiny details of our hopes, dreams, fears, fantasies, gifts, and curses. Let’s allow ourselves to break open vulnerably and rebuild honestly. 

For resilience in this journey, we need attitudes of curiosity and compassion. We could also say we need unconditional love or, unconditional positive regard.

That’s where I come in.

I amalgamate the best from the most
supportive types of relationships: non-attachment
of a skillful counselor, non-judgment of a soft mother, realness of the girl next door, sharp and kind intelligence of the supportive teacher, and goofiness of the best friend. 

Essentially, we get to hang out and be real together while moving through the ups and downs of life.

I’ve always been brilliant (yes, I know I am- and I’m also hilarious). I’m extremely intelligent, sweet, silly, and I love to create. Life has been so good to me, including through teaching me some very difficult lessons (namely, how to feel and process my emotions).

My teenage years were filled to the brim with hellfire- chronic depression, crippling anxiety, other neuroticisms, rampant codependency- and chasing these symptoms were very frequent doctor and therapist appointments, over four dozen medications, and almost 20 hospitalization and rehabilitation stints. 

I moved out of this space of chronic illness through amazing community support, mindfulness practice, love for singing and food, and a deep knowing of my capacity to be an amazing mother. Meditation, yoga, breathwork, theatre, tantra, quantum physics, and ceremonial uses of psychadelics have been greatly helpful as well. 

My biggest takeaway from life so far, and what I pass on to others, particularly through my example, is that authentic self-expression is the key to vitality. 

What is required for authentic self-expression?

  • Self-honesty

  • Relationships with other humans in which we feel unconditionally loved and supported, which requires a significant level of authenticity in the other person. This requires that the other person is relatively self-regulated, compassionate, employs boundaries, and communicative.

  • Willingness 

So, if you’d like to re-engage with play at a deeper level, allowing yourself to be as you are in a space that supports and encourages whatever you want for yourself~ consider stepping into my container. 

Here, I’ll show you how it is to courageously be me~ which will offer you the frequency of authenticity. 

In large part, I coach via “direct transmission”, following the energy of authentic self-expression and reception, rather than micromanaging the process. That being said, I employ dozens of tools, including body awareness practices, breathwork, emotional awareness practices, conscious communication skills, cannabis-assisted therapy, and theatrical therapy (i.e., role playing). Generally, I offer these tools in subtle ways, that feel more like a friend throwing out an idea than a coach giving an instruction. I deeply respect autonomy, and passionately respect personal boundaries and desires. 

As we play together, your own container will expand, and your contents will become more refined. My perspective is one of inner alchemy~ let me teach you how to turn your lead into gold.
