Priestess School
A Sacred Leadership Apprenticeship
for the Spiritual Fringe
“We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.”
—Alice Walker
Do you have a calling to sacred leadership–but don’t quite fit inside established religious or spiritual structures?
Have you had that quiet inner knowing…that “yes–maybe–I’m a priestess…”?
Or maybe you’re not sure about spiritual leadership…but you know you crave more connection to your sacred source?
If so, you are in the right place.
And to be clear: by priestess I mean a spiritual leader–of any gender–answering the call of leadership on the spiritual fringe, midwifing our troubled world through these uncertain times from exactly where you are: in your family, your ecosystem, and your immediate spheres of influence.

BUT…despite all the signs, chances are you also feel uncertain and on your own, with some healthy doses of imposter syndrome and fear of abusing power. You’ve probably been holding back, wondering…
…Who am I to be a spiritual leader?
…How do I hold spiritual authority with integrity and authenticity?
…Who else can I walk with on this pathless path on the fringe…???
Priestess School was designed just for you to take brave steps on Your Unique Priestess Path (without burning out, going at it alone, or recreating the thing you’re attempting to leave behind)

Is this you?
- The word “priestess” scares you or makes you cringe…but also (secretly) lights you up
- You know you’re called to spiritual leadership…but you’re terrified of abusing power the way you’ve seen it abused.
- You are a “recovering Christian,” spiritual-but-not-religious, or have felt let down by, estranged from, or just never quite at home in your spiritual tradition of origin or mainstream religions
- You’ve had an arduous healing journey…but you’re no longer in ‘survival’ mode and are ready to start giving back to the web that has held you.
- You have a rich and eclectic spiritual life, and long to support others on their spiritual path
- You’re longing for a place to refine your spiritual leadership skills with integrity…but traditional seminaries don’t speak to you.
- You light up with anything having to do with the Feminine Divine, earth-based rhythms, mystical encounters, Beguines, heretics, animists and the monastics of old…and want to be a part of the Sacred Feminine emergence for the good of all creation
- You are deeply attuned to and concerned with the many crises our world faces–maybe you’ve been an activist, an educator, or a care-provider of some kind–and continue to long to be a part of nurturing culture and communities of resistance, resilience, collective liberation and joy…without being paralysed by overwhelm or burning out.
If so, this mentorship is designed just for you to expand your toolkit of personal and communal practice, grounded resilience, clear vision and authentic voice of leadership.
Through nurturing skills of deep listening and good-enough relating to your own body-ecology, the land you are on, your immediate sphere of relationships, and the wider web of life, you will be supported in stepping into your Priestess calling however that looks like for you.
