Why a rite of passage?
You’ve done the retreats, the plant medicine, the Manifestation, the books.
And somewhere between the insights and who you are on a Tuesday morning…
It disappears.
What is actually happening
You’re not missing another insight.
You’re missing a threshold.
For most of human history, nobody was expected to change by understanding their pattern or hoping something new will start.
A person who became a woman, a mother, a healer, a widow, A priestess, a warrior, was taken through something.
A moment, a before and an after.
The community didn’t ask them to feel different.
They made it impossible to stay the same.
We lost this crossing.
So you changed in your mind, but nothing in your life, your body or the people around you ever confirmed it.
Your nervous system has no proof that the old you is over. And what has no proof, the body doesn’t let go of.
You know this is
for you when
You feel transformed at the retreat and like the old version of yourself again two weeks after coming home
You can analyze all of your patterns with clarity, and still react like the wounded teenage girl when you feel triggered
You keep waiting to feel ready to become the woman you want to become
Something in your life has ended, a relationship, a career, a version of you, and you still introduce yourself as the person you were before
