Approaching burnout, but can't say no?

Are you on the verge of something new, but too scared to make a move?


I’ve been there.

I've started a non-profit AND a business.

I've struggled because I couldn't pay my bills, and I've earned way more than I dreamed.

I've gotten burnt out, but now I've found my grounding by connecting with my Ancestors.

 

What is an Apprenticeship and why am I offering this?


I'm offering this Apprenticeship to give a small group of folks the space to Slow Down and learn from nature, their ancestors and their bodies/hearts.

As an apprentice, you get to work side by side with me and our community as you PRACTICE the Regenerate with the Earth 5R's. 

Release...Rest...Root...Restore ... and Roar.

If you are feeling alone, overwhelm, self-criticism, fear, or self-abandonment, welcome to our community.

Here are the benefits.  Our Apprentices can now:

  • Say “no” or “not now” without feeling wracked by guilt and second-guessing;

  •  Hold space for others' suffering without trying to "save" them;

  • Be a strong loving presence for justice even if you don't participate in traditional forms of activism such as marches and demonstrations;

  •  Slow down your work for a deeper longer term impact on your community;

  •  Offer your gifts and charge what it’s worth.

 

 Is the APPRENTICESHIP for YOU?:

 
1.  Are you feeling lonely because...

  • Your friends and family don't really see the world as you do
  • You've gotten burned in other social justice spaces
  •  Feeling judged and not safe to express yourself at work

 

2. Are you on the verge of burnout but ...

  • Can't say no without extreme guilt or fear
  • Don't know who you'd be without your job, activism, or business
  • Your Inner Critic is running the show


3. Do you have a dream project, business, or podcast that you want to launch but you...

  • Second-Guessing yourself
  • Scattered and Unfocused
  • Daunted by all you have to do 

 

4. You Can't seem to charge your worth in your business or fundraising and you're

  • Apologizing for your fee
  • Not sure you're worth it
  • Hate capitalism
  • Worried about excluding people 

    Let's talk if you are...

    •  Wanting simple, guided practices.

    • Feeling cut off — from family, culture, or land — and crave belonging.

    • Sensing ancestor healing is also liberation work, but need guidance.

    • Yearning for a supportive, non-judgmental community to walk this path with.

JOIN 6-Month Apprenticeship


The Apprenticeship follows the Earth’s seasons:
 

WINTER & SPRING: RELEASE, REST & ROOT & ROAR
Dec-May


We begin with the Winter Portal to RELEASE what’s blocking your evolution. 

Just as trees drop leaves and seeds, we too are encouraged to LET GO of

Us vs. Them

Tyranny of Productivity

Hierarchy

 

If you are on the verge of burnout, Releasing these beliefs will help you to find Rest.

Rest is not binging on Netflix or Instagram.

Rest requires us to let down our defenses in the mind and body to heal and receive.

After the Journey through the Winter Portal, we meet roughly once a month as a group.

 

Session One:
Discover Your Personal Ancestor Support

Set your intention: Find out which beloved ancestor wants to support you and the best way to communicate with them.


Session Two:
Activate Your Altar

Set up and Activate your Altar to cultivate regular connection with your ancestors


Session Three:
Increase Your Clarity with Imagination

Use Imagination Practices that increase Ancestor contact and clarity on life challenges to help you move forward


Session Four: Session with Group
Dissecting & Discerning Ancestor Guidance

Activate your power to make things happen


Session Five: Session with Group
Rituals and Offerings

How to create rituals and offerings that enrich your life and heal money wounds

 

 

Ancestor work is countercultural, and for most of us, impossible without a community of likeminded souls.

Working alongside Aminata and a small group, you will connect with the higher wisdom of the Earth, your Beloved Ancestors, your Body and your Heart.

If you are too scared to start or expand your new business/project, Winter is the perfect time to turn within and build self-trust.

As we move into winter, we gradually slow down and come to a period of Surrender and Radical Acceptance.

This is not a bypass or complicity with unjust systems.

Winter is time to go inside and grieve, acknowledge and release anger, reflect, nourish our souls and practice receiving.

When you work with the energy of Winter, you emerge with clarity, courage and the confidence to take action in the Spring and Summer.

Dates:

Journey through the Winter Portal:    Dec. 19-22 +27

Journey through the Spring Equinox:  Mar. 19-22 + 27

1 Wednesday/month (February, March, April, May)

To apply for the Apprenticeship, the first step is to sign up for a Next Steps Sacred Listening Session.  What we're really listening for is what's your next for your evolution.  And what it is costing you to not have support.

It may include investing in the apprenticeship, and it may not.

This Free session is a beautiful opportunity to slow down and listen.  We will decide together if the timing is right for this level of support.
