Softening Into a New Season ✨

I think it’s safe to say the leap from 2024 to 2025 felt… a lil aggressive. Of course, most years come with their challenges, but some seem to rearrange everything... the kind of years that shake up your identity in ways you couldn’t have planned for. Void space, unknown space... the space of limitless potential.
It might come through changing a job or buying a home. Maybe it’s ending a relationship, getting married, or welcoming a new soul (animal or human) into your life. These are the thresholds that shift everything. They remind us that even when change is planned, we never really know how it will feel until we’re in it. Each shift asks us to step into new versions of ourselves, sometimes gently… and sometimes not so gently.

For me, 2023 untethered me, 2024 rerooted me, and 2025 gave us the sweetest gift- the most darling, funny little Gemini. His presence has slowed me down, grounded me, and postpartum has undoubtedly reminded me of what matters the most. And in that slowing down, I’ve finally found the space to make the intentional shift that Red Tent has been quietly asking for over the last year.
There’s something about transformation, especially through motherhood, that teaches you how little control we actually have, and yet how perfectly things unfold when we allow life to move through us.
As I’ve softened into this new rhythm, Red Tent is strengthening and expanding. Over the coming weeks, I’ll be sharing the evolution of what’s next. Each offering, collaboration, and creation deserves and will receive its own introduction.
Here’s a glimpse of what’s on the horizon:
Retreats.
4 yearly Red Tent Creations.
Collaborations.
Hire us to host your retreat.
Consulting.
Memberships.
Creators / Retreats.
Services / Classes.
Marketing.
Calendar.
Socials.
Newsletters.
Email campaigns.
Ambassadorship.

This next chapter of Red Tent feels like a weaving of purpose and possibility. I’m opening space for more collective experiences — not just in retreats, but for teachers, guides, coaches, facilitators and also creating more offerings within workplaces, communities, and groups ready to bring wellness, connection, and nervous system regulation into their environments. It’s time to bring mindfulness, intention and presence into places that need it most.
And for those who’ve been part of Red Tent for a while — or are ready to step in more fully — the new membership offerings are where I’ll be pouring much of my energy. They’re designed to create lasting support, education, and connection for both individuals and conscious creators.

If you’ve ever been touched by a Red Tent experience, this is the season to stay close, to share, and to help this work reach the people who need it most. Your presence, referrals, neverending support and enthusiasm truly make and have made all the difference.
Thank you, truly, for being here through every shift, pause, and rebirth. Your presence, support and love means more than you know.
