This is a raw, vulnerable confession of what the temple has meant to me and how it has initiated me. I've never allowed myself to be witnessed publicly in my heart quite like this. But the transmission poured through and I knew I had to use it. 

In this Confessions of a Temple Artist, I covered....

  • The ancient rememberance & overwhelming emotion I experienced the first time I ever stepped into the temple for ceremony.
  • The sacred reverence that the temple commands & the God Conciousness that it's coded with.
  • The purpose of the temple initiates us into mastering death - without sacrifice - so that we may fully live.


Feel free to ask questions along the way & share with anyone else curious about the path of the sacred temple arts.

July 31st |ALL NEW| TEMAZCAL IMMERSION

Ceremony. Cuisine. Community. Culture.

This is our fifth year of hosting the temazcal! We can't even beleive it. After a lot of back and forth, Edmundo & I decided that we are returning to our roots with the temazcal and he and I will be facilitating together again this year. 

But...we've upgraded the experience. As we've grown, so has our vision and, that means temazcal, too. It's expanded into an 5-1/2 hour immersion that now includes:

  • Ceremony - experience the sweat lodge of the mesoamerica tradition.
  • Cuisine - followed by a homemade family-style meal in our new outdoor dining area.
  • Community - designed to create connection & networking as we build a village for a Sacred Wealth Society.
  • Culture - no international travel required, experience the ancient technology of temazcal, right here in the outskirts of St Louis, MO. 

We can't wait to see in the dark with you inside the womb of the Primordial Mother. 

Purchase your tickets here.

Only 7 seats available.

Shibari as a Modern Day Hieros Gamos Ritual | What it taught me about my capacity
Recently, my husband invited me to do a shibari session with him. We had reached this same chronic stuck point in our relationship. I desired an apology for hurtful behavior and he wouldn’t or couldn’t provide what I wanted and needed to repair.  After a prophetic dream of me in the ropes, he brought it to me with a slight twist…instead of seeing each other as our human selves, he suggested we...
Confessions of a Temple Artist | Permission to Ask
I come from a lineage of women who did not have access to their voice. They would fight, freeze or fawn but I was not modeled women who powerfully, lovingly communicate thier boundaries or needs. In this episode, I share the breaking open moment where my husband made the invitation for me to simple ASK for what I wanted or needed and it changed everything for me, including our relationship.  I...
My Desire to Write Sacred Erotica Liberated My Voice & Rebirthed my Marriage
Last year, I had an edgy idea to create a newsletter with my erotic alchemy medicine stories. I felt an overwhelming excitement to share them as a form of healing shamanic medicine & sacred artistic expression – Erotic Art. I knew they might even “break the internet”.  But as I began to write them, I felt a tremendous fear emerge in my body.  Fear of judgment, ridicule, rejection, the distortio...
