The Manifesto of a Professional Ritual Witch

I believe…

You are not broken & you do not need to be fixed.

We have to be radical (rooted & liberatory) with our thoughts & actions in order to reimagine our world.

Gathering together in ritual is how we remember who we are & that we’re all connected.

I am motivated by the wisdom of these teachers.

“Love and Justice are not two.

Without inner change, there can be no outer change.

Without collective change, no change matters.”

— Rev. angel Kyodo williams

To make a revolution, people must not only struggle against existing institutions.

They must make a philosophical/spiritual leap and become more human human begins.

In order to change/transform the world, they must change/transform themselves.”

— Grace Lee Boggs

“What we practice is what we are.

What do we say we’re practicing? What are we actually practicing? What do we want to be practicing?

Practice is how we become what we long to do.”

— adrienne maree brown

I help people integrate ritual into life, work, & personal practice without it becoming just another thing on the to-do list.

I specialize in collaborating with the reawakened witches, crones-to-be, & the ones who know they have wisdom to share.

The changemakers, visionaries, healers, facilitators, & leaders I collaborate with want to create magical, transformative, & world-changing experiences that disrupt the Boxes of Conformity.

I show World-Changers how to focus on what they do best, imbue their systems & containers with their values, & discover how they want to navigate the BS that rises up when we start to disrupt the Disembodied Gatekeeping Patriarchy & lead with vision.

That way we don’t contribute to the status quo.

We contribute to collective liberation.

This is our work together & how we can co-create magic.

My business is a spell in devotion to collective liberation.

To contribute to regenerative culture & disrupt hustle culture, I block out my Blood Moon days & practice The Ritual of Intentional Invisibility.

To contribute to conscious commerce & disrupt false urgency, I slow down the sales process (h/t Allison Davis) & provide opportunities to get to know me before we enter into a sales conversation.

To contribute to ancestral wisdom & disrupt cultural appropriation & the myth of the self-made person, I cite my lineage & create Braver Space containers.

To contribute to inclusive learning & disrupt economic barriers, I offer no-cost strategy Facilitator Circles, & share ritual teachings in Witchy Wednesdays.

To contribute to economic justice & disrupt extractive capitalism, I offer no penalty payment plans & sliding scale pricing. 

To contribute to mutual aid & disrupt wealth hoarding, I redistribute 11% of my 1:1 & group ritual facilitation. As Kelly Sunrose taught me, I choose organizations that are led by those they serve.

What I say FUCK OFF to & What I do instead:

  • I encourage us to trust our intuition & maintain sovereignty.

  • I invite us to slow down, honor our rhythms, & align our energetic cycles so we don’t burn out.

  • I trust when we craft magic based on intentional action we create impactful outcomes.

  • I support direct action, collective care, & showing the fuck up.

  • I facilitate a ritual framework that invites you to discover what nourishes you.

Witchy Wednesdays

Your ritual email where I often say FUCK OFF to the conditioned BS & invite us to do it another way.

Thank you, Hilary Foreman, for the brilliant portraits.
