She Thought the Animosity Toward Men Was Permanent Until the Ancestral Work
|
Hello Reader, The Roman calendar notes it's the end of the year even though there are many endings and beginnings between now and spring. Wintering invites us going inwards into the depths of our beingness not just the shadow, as has been promoted by social media. When we are still and can be with what is, the One Who Notices is more present in our midst. In your still moments now or in the coming days and weeks, what keeps getting your attention even though it feels immovable or elusive? In reflecting on our work together, one of my annual year-long group members discovered something she hadn't known was possible: a different relationship with the men in her lineage and with men overall. She found this through her Ancestral Altar work. She's been in my annual circles for two years and has done years of somatic therapy before that. "I don't think I even realized how much animosity I carried towards men. As a boy mom and a self-proclaimed feminist, being able to make space for the full humanity of my boys has been the most healing part of this work. The work we did gave me the ability to find compassion and connection with my male ancestors that I couldn't access before. Something softened. The tightness, the grip that it had on me, is now definitely a lot looser." "When I think about my ancestors, I always think of my female ancestors. I don't ever think about my male ancestors. So just setting up the Ancestry Altar, putting all the representations there, it kind of forced me to sit with them. My male ancestors, oh, you guys are there too. To really think about what their experience might have been as well." "I carried around a lot of animosity towards men, and I don't think that's there as much. The hostility around it. Some of the tightness, the grip that it had on me, is definitely a lot looser. When you make space for, and you let go of your hold on anger and resentment, it opens up room for a different experience. It frees up space to think about and do other things with your mind. This is not mine to hold. And so now there's room for me to hold something else." This is not mine to hold. This liberation becomes possible when you work in the systemic field. The animosity, the anger, the resentment, much of what we carry toward men, toward patriarchy, toward our male ancestors is inherited familially and systemically. It's been passed down through lineages, cultures, communities, and systems. Freedom that we didn't know was available becomes accessible. This woman has done years of somatic therapy before stepping into my annual circles. In 2025, the Soulful Visionary Collective focused on the systemic field through Alchemical Constellations, working with familial and systemic entanglements to access liberation. The Ancestry Altar is one of the tools that work with depth and breadth that I teach in my annual programs, which deepen and expand each year. You can dive deeper into this community member's evolution in our Soulful Visionary Podcast conversation here. The 2026 Women's Legacy Collective is gathering 13 women. This year-long circle is for women who are ready to discover what has been hidden in plain sight through group processes by receiving and activating their purpose, wholeness, and legacies for themselves, their systemic field, and the collective. The Women's Legacy Collective offers structured opportunties for each woman in the group co-create the legacy that has been awaiting you: what's ready to find its rightful place in the systemic field, what you create, and what ripples forward far beyond what the thinking mind or books have pointed toward. There are 7 spaces open, and I'm in conversation with 3 women. May you tune into the stillness of what has felt unliberated in you and your systemic field and discover that there is more there than you could imagine. If you've been journeying with this and would like to receive support on this in a circle of 13 women who are circling their own elusive, evasive, and immovable things, join us in the Women's Legacy Collective, not because you need to, but because you want to do this together. Book your 30 minute tune-in call to determine if we're a match for each other and our systemic fields. I can't wait to be there with you, your intentions, systemic field, and the legacy you're co-creating.

Hello Reader, A fifty-year pattern dissolved. Kylie Patchett came to me two months ago stuck in a loop she'd been in her entire life. She knew what the problem was. She'd tried everything. It wouldn't budge. We did a 1:1 Alchemical Constellation together. Here's what she shared two months after our work together: "There's this quiet, deep seam of calm. The chatter, the fear, the anxiety that this old pattern used to bring... it's just not there anymore. I've been stuck in that pattern for...
Hi Reader, You know that feeling when you sense something in your life could shift, but you can’t quite put your finger on what or how? Maybe it’s that promotion you’ve been working toward for months but can’t quite land. Or how you keep attracting the same type of unavailable partner despite doing all the “work” on yourself. Or that persistent sense that you’re working harder than you need to for the results you’re getting. I’m opening up a limited number of spots for something I’ve never...
Hello Reader, If you’ve been curious about what Alchemical Constellation work looks like with me, I’m sharing a glimpse into one client’s experience a few weeks after her session. This was her first session, a single 2-hour Alchemical Family & Systems Constellation. She’s a seasoned coach and healer herself, who’s done decades of personal work. When a client says YES and completes payment, the process begins. Here’s what unfolded in her words. “The moment I said yes to the session, things...
