I'm dedicated to helping women in particular develop their spiritual path in life. I'm focused heavily on Brigid in Ireland, although not all my followers are! I teach, speak, coach and mentor people to help them along their own individual path, based on what lore we have, but also allowing for each individual path to develop as it needs to.
⏰🪴do You Feel It? Things Are Growing Fast

Yes, I'm still on about energy and things starting to grow today! I can't help it, I can feel the energy moving and shifting and it's fun! Plus, you know, it's that time of year when I get geared up for talking about Brigid non-stop, for 2 full months. (I know, you lot are used to listening to me all the time, but other people aren't!) Anyway, it's a quick email today, because I'm working on something very exciting. I'm putting together an Imbolc retreat. I did this last year, it was 6 hours, via Zoom, with plenty of breaks because Zoom is not built for marathon sessions like that. Now, I know it sounds horrendous, but people really enjoyed and got a lot out of last year. And I'm hoping this year will be even better. So, keep an eye out. In the meantime, if you want to check out some of the amazing courses I already have available on Brigid, you can check them out here. Looking to build your relationship with Brigid? Check this out. Trying to walk your own path and throw off the shackles of rigid religious upbringing? Try this one. (Or payment options here and here) Want a deep dive into each of the four manuscripts that mention her PLUS a deep dive into the saint? Have a look at the Imbolc bundle. Three Brigs of Ulster? Got you covered! And please, if you hear anyone spouting any of the nonsense we hear at this time of year - point them in the direction of the blog!

Today's blog post is about ascending into Imbolc. Now, I know - we don't usually think about ascending to Imbolc. We might consider descending around Samhain, but if there's a sense of descent into the earth for the winter, we really should counteract that with a period of ascent as well. And given Imbolc is about that period where we're looking at nature, new growth, rising energy in the world in general... it makes sense to me to link it to ascent. (It's also a great time to check out your...
Yes, I'm getting back into some sort of sensible routine now! Although I spent the entire weekend and my two days off last week on the couch, struggling with a cold. Or possibly flu and the vaccine was doing its job. (Yes, this is a pro-vaccine space, in case you were in any doubt!) But I've been having loads of conversations over the last few weeks over the guilt people feel around Christmas, and women in their 40's/ 50's in particular. So, that's what today's blog post is about. Guilt,...
Well, ok, the end of the working year is nigh and if you're lucky or privileged enough to have some time off over the holiday season here is your permission slip to thoroughly enjoy it! I'm off work tomorrow and Friday and I will be back in on Monday - and I'm really looking forward to it - I'm gonna get so much done! The decks will be cleared for 2026. Aside from that, I will be sipping coffee, catching up with folk and making sure nothing ruins people's holidays. I strongly encourage you to...
