Hi! This is for you if you are a retreat facilitator, community event organizer, or any sort of group experience creator!
After many years of holding space in my private healing practice offering various forms of bodywork and psychedelic therapy, a profound desire to be in service to group environments has been awakened. Attending and supporting retreats, trainings, and other curated gatherings have been among the most impactful and enlivening experiences of my life, and I very simply want more of this in my life! I’m seeking opportunities to collaborate with facilitators of such events, and bring the high level of care that I offer in private practice to group spaces. Depending on the nature of the roles, I am open to both volunteer and paid positions, which we can discuss on a case by case basis.
I’ve been on this tip for a while, so I can offer several glowing references from amazing leaders if interested. :)
My greatest strengths are in the realms of communication, space holding, and creation of sacred space.
Skills I can offer with ease:
logistical coordination (helping connect attendees who might want to carpool, share lodging, etc)
being the point of contact for participants for information/questions throughout the event so that the facilitator(s) don’t need to field questions
being the point of contact for all other supporting roles (chef, workshop facilitators, guest contributors, photographers, etc (example: does the rental space have everything the chef may need?)
set up spaces in a beautiful way, and freshen/reset between group sessions
tone setter - if there’s an opening exercise/question, setting the tone by sharing authentically and vulnerably, mirroring that it’s a safe space to open up
one-on-one check ins with participants during the retreat, giving them space to be heard and feel emotionally supported through whatever is arising for them in the experience
offering Infinite Crescendo breathwork experiences
offering craniosacral therapy to participants
helping people navigate difficult psychedelic experiences
setting up and tending to snack/tea table
having eyes on a group at large and attuning to where support might be needed
time keeping: gathering people when it’s time, making sure everyone is up to date on schedule shifts / changes, being on top of completing in time for checkout from space
and more!
My interest in offering these services is multifaceted. I am not currently interested in hosting my own retreats, but I know that over the next few years I’m walking in that direction. As an experiential learner, I look forward to growing my understanding of group dynamics and retreat execution through being a back end team member. On the most personal level- I very simply thrive in curated group environments with heart centered conscious humans who are called to gather in the name of learning, healing and growth!
Feel free to reach out to say hello! I would LOVE to hear what you are envisioning for your group offering, and what kind of support you might be seeking. Whether or not my support ends up being needed, I love making new connections and engaging in conversations around the magic of collective space. (also feel free to pass this on to anyone in your community who might be interested.)
Let’s Talk!
