Testimonials

I had no idea what i was getting myself into going into this women's circle but on my journey to discovering myself, new things are to be welcomed. I was of course nervous for the first few moments, but the energy was just so calming and envelopping that i quickly put my guard down without even realizing it. Throughout the sharing, the exercices and the journaling i just felt growth growth and more growth. Time just flew. And the instant connection formed with the other women there was just so nice. 0 judgement, 0 negativity just acceptance. I cannot wait for more workshops!

The entire workshop was transformative, truly. I feel like I was just re-born. I am still floating! I lack the words to describe how amazing it has been to work with Stephanie and to be part of these women's circles. After the last Circle I attended, holding hands, I left floating. I felt for the first time in a very long time held by other women in a way that felt incredibly loving, kind, and authentic. I felt safe, I felt supported and I felt a sense of community like no other. Thank you STEPHANIE for being the beautiful Creator of these connection moments. And thank you to my fellow sacred sisters for taking the plunge and being vulnerable enough to participate in these transformative workshops. You are my people, I am not alone.

I can't say enough about Stephanie's facilitation skills. She is extremely knowledgeable, unique and loving, and I appreciate how skillfully she creates the safe space. It is such a great learning experience: The theories being taught, the self reflection questions, and the interactive discussions. Every workshop is impactful and gives me a lot to reflect on. I heal more and more each time!

This was my first Sacred Sisters workshop. I wasn't sure what to expect, but from the moment I walked into the space I felt welcome and comfortable. Stephanie is amazing at presenting topics in a way that are accessible, and has an amazing way of helping people stay present, safe and supported. I will definitely be attending the next one.

Stephanie does an amazing job at making everybody feel welcome. I think for one of the very first times in my life my no is respected just as much as my yes. She created a safe place for me to connect to other women as well as my myself. I was able to connect to parts of me deep emotions that were so buried I didn't even realize I had buried them. I was able to connect to parts of myself that I don't even have words for. I love looking in the "mirror" and being asked to trust a process that at times is uncomfortable, but by the end of it, I feel a little more whole and connected to myself to others then I did before the adventure started.

Everything was wonderful! The connection with self, others, and nature, the safety, vulnerability, deep healing and growth. All aspects of the workshop and all activities were incredibly engaging and helpful.

The coming togetherness of different women with different backgrounds, and understanding that at the end of the day, we’re all human beings processing human emotions, and that’s it’s okay to not always be okay, and that there’s support not too far, and sometimes the best support is from strangers who become friends through beautiful moments experienced such as in yesterday’s workshop. I really appreciated the exercise of staring in a stranger’s eyes and saying “I see you”. That spoke to me a lot. Of course the gift giving experience was super fun too! You’re amazing!! Thanks Steph! :)

I knew how powerful it is to heal in a circle of women, and this workshop confirmed this for me! We were 5 women that just needed to feel seen, held, and witnessed...and that happened and so much more! Forever grateful to Stephanie for creating this container and space. <3

Natalie Goerner
It sure was a gift yesterday, many thanks again, wow, I didn’t realize how badly I needed to be seen, witnessed and mostly held. You have a real gift of creating the safest space for people - it is truly inspiring. Thanks again for an unforgettable experience!

“My time with Stephanie has been life changing.

I am in awe of the amount and extent of shifts in my ways of thinking about myself and how I navigate in the world around me in the 9 months I have been fortunate to be in her classes and energetic space.

Her energy and words reinforces her ability to create loving, non judgemental, safe spaces for a collective of strangers in a very short period of time.

Stephanie's skills and history of training in trauma informed care make a powerful impact on the energy and movement of sharing in circles.

I have observed in myself a new found openness to express myself without fear of rejection. Fears I did not even have clarity on or aware they existed in my mind.

The spaces Stephanie creates include healing thru silence and breath work and grounding practices. I continue to learn about how our nervous system can be retrained like a baby's brain creating new connections and re-definitions of what is true and actually real. (Hint- it is not at all what you believe!)

She holds up guardrails for us and invites us through inquiry to help us go deeper.

My school aged children have likely benefited as much as I have from the healing I am experiencing as I am breaking the cycles from previous generations driven by fear and lack.

The most beautiful and life reinforcing aspect for me has been taking the circle practice to women on the outside. In text exchanges, sides of sports fields, offering of hugs...

I have been connecting with women in ways I never knew could exist. Some of whom I have known on surface level for a while or known for a short time, share that my energy and words have changed their perspective about being vulnerable when given a non-judgemental and supportive space to share their deepest fears.

Female bonding and connecting for the win!

I have nothing but gratitude for every single interaction I have with Stephanie.

Her grace, her compassion, her boundaries, her honoring and celebrating my "no" 's as a full sentence; her teaching me how to listen into my heart to know what I truly want and need; holding space to practice expressing it, learning to love all the parts of myself both physically and mentally; and celebrating even the darkest parts for revealing themselves for me to show compassion towards myself.

For teaching me how to trust other women and unprogram that we are all in competition with each other.

For teaching me how to create, call in and manifest stronger female, supportive, village bonds.

I cannot believe or express how beautiful it has been for other women to reach out to me to connect and hang out.

That I feel healthy and strong enough to welcome them into my deepest and darkest too. Shining a light on 'hey, me too!'.

Through my work with Stephanie, I am learning to Trust that my body will express itself in all the ways I have been conditioned to shut it down.

Turning the music up and dancing and singing to my own beats.

I continue to discover how to listen to my heart and honor it.

I have gone deeper in 9 months than I have in 4 years of cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR.

I had often been a silent observer in group settings, scanning for threats or risk of shame or rejection. Leading vs being part of the group. I had developed my way of being distant from the collective. Isolating myself and my needs in order to be accepted by others.

I learned that that had been my coping mechanism to handle rejection and not having my needs met growing up.

In spaces with Stephanie, I open up willingly and with an open heart as she welcomes it and celebrates it.

I had no idea this way of living even existed and I am and will be forever grateful for the work Stephanie does with me.

I am honored to be held in a space with her.

I am humbled to be held in a space with her.

I am filled with gratitude to be held in a space by her.

I invite you to give space for yourself to be held in Stephanie's circles, workshops, TRE classes or 1 on 1s.

It is truly the most priceless gift I have given myself and wish for you the same.”
