Hello, to begin with an introduction:

My name is Gretchen "Grae".

 I prefer she or they pronouns.

I am a Rite of Passage and Wilderness Guide.

As a guide, I am transparent that I never guide alone.

 My first co-guide seat is always inhabited by Nature.

I intend to balance attention towards the wisdom of the body, psyche, mind, spirit, environment, community and the culture.

While my work does include Ceremony and Ritual, it is important for me to approach it through a perspective of integrated wholeness, authenticity, and cultural respect. 

I create a container that is spacious and safe enough to be filled by any truths and by any identities a human may bring.

WHY MY WORK IMPORTANT?

   The relationship with a guide is a crucial component of navigating the unknown territories of our living & being. Remembering and & Restoring this relationship is a truly radical and magical act.

 I offer this work because it is my passion, my purpose, my way in life.

 I can't not do it.

HOW DOES GUIDING WORK?

   Guiding is an art form, it is not pre-made nor thoroughly planned. Much of our work together will be intuitive, more of a remembering than a learning. Our surroundings will will constantly inform how we move and what we are resourced by.
