About this Retreat
This project is my life’s work — building a grounded, heart-centred community for people who feel the genuine call to sit with us. We value honesty, connection, healing, and healthy boundaries.
I’ve walked through addiction, violence, heartbreak, and survival. My path didn’t come from books or quick courses — it came from lived experience, years of ceremony, and training with elders and teachers across the world. That’s why people trust me to hold space: because I’ve done my own work and continue to do it every day.
Here, you’ll get directness, clarity, and presence. We keep our ceremonies safe and focused — not on theatrics or ego, but on truth and transformation. If challenges come up, we address them in a way that protects the container and supports the process.
THP isn’t about a quick fix or a spiritual fireworks show. It’s a medicine that can strip away illusions and help you see what’s real. The work is yours to do — the medicine will simply help you see where to begin.
You don’t have to be perfect or have it all figured out. You just have to be ready to show up honestly and meet yourself where you are. If you are, you’ll be welcomed, supported, and guided with everything I’ve got.
This isn’t about being liked — it’s about being of service. And if that’s what you’re looking for, you’re in the right place.
