Rites of the Heart

How to navigate healing as a rite of passage

an interactive workshop

I think of a rite of the heart as a healing journey of any kind, whether you’re navigating your way through changes and challenges that are physical, emotional, spiritual, or all of these things.

A rite of the heart also includes the experiences we may have that are perhaps invisible to the rest of the world – they are shifts within your inner landscape. They’re the initiations that aren’t obvious to those we encounter at the grocery store or while picking up the kids from school, but that might rock your world nonetheless.

So perhaps you've just received a world-shifting diagnosis. Maybe you're wading through the depths of burnout. Perhaps you're healing from a broken heart.

No matter what path of healing you’re walking right now, you are welcome here.

Sometimes, what feels like the end is in fact a beginning of a new road. Your healing journey will show you how to slow down, help you sort the busyness from what matters. It will show you how to find support…and who you really are, beyond your roles and expectations.”

– Lucy Pearce

Rooted in the four-part, evidence-based framework I developed to support women through times of transformation, Rites of the Heart will guide you to make sense of how your life is shifting as your healing journey unfolds. During this workshop you will...

...gently orient yourself within the changes that are happening in your healing journey or rite of the heart right now, helping you to explore what is shifting for you, and how.

...be supported to acknowledge and honour what you're letting go of – or even grieving – as your healing journey unfolds.

...discover six key resources to help you navigate through the liminal space - that time of not-yet-knowing what will become of you as you walk through this experience.

...use an evidence-based method to find tangible, doable ways to to step into "what's next" for you as you move through this transformational time in your life.

May grace come to restore you to balance.

May it shape a new place in your heart

To embrace this healing as a teacher

Who has come to open your life to new worlds.

– John O'Donohue

Times of healing or times when you experience changes in your health and wellbeing are challenging. They impact every aspect of our lives in ways that can feel really overwhelming.

When you complete Rites of the Heart, you'll get clarity on how you can support yourself and what to expect as this transformational time in your life unfolds.

You'll also receive a hearty toolkit of practical resources you can implement immediately to begin tending to what you and your healing path need right now.

You'll complete this workshop feeling deeply resourced, guided, and maybe most importantly, less alone in traversing this journey you're on.

More About Me

Hi, I'm Jessie!

I'm a coach and doula, and I've been supporting women through rites of passage and radical transformations in their lives for nearly two decades.

Over this time, I've worked with dozens (and dozens!) of women who have traversed healing journeys of all different kinds – from grappling with life-changing diagnoses to healing burnout and heartbreak, and so much more.

I hope this workshop supports you and gives you the tools and resources you need to help you along the path you're walking right now.

Questions you might have about this workshop:

What do you mean by healing journey?

When I say “healing,” or a “healing journey,” I’m not necessarily referring to “curing.” I’m not here to deify health as the ultimate goal – some of us won’t ever experience a “cure,” as it were. But the root of the word “healing” means “wholeness,” and so it is my hope that this workshop is an invitation into more wholeness. I use "healing" as a shorthand in this workshop, but know that this encompasses so much more than a journey toward “health” or “wellness,” however we may define it.
