When my kids and I moved this year, it could have just been a time of stress and exhaustion and to-do lists.

But thankfully I also had a house blessing with friends to honor the transition and to honor our family home. We sang and walked through the home and lit candles and laughed. 

When my divorce process was finalized with a 10-minute zoom hearing, if I was looking for some kind of deeper closure from the legal system I would have been really disappointed!

Thankfully, I made a ceremony to mark this life-changing moment—to honor the marriage and the ending of the marriage. And it was so life-giving and life-healing. 

When I had a client who had a complicated relationship with her father and wanted to shift the energy around sending her dad monthly financial support, we dreamed up a little ceremony for doing just that. And now she does this each month before hitting send. 

I care deeply about honoring milestones and transitions and seeing the sacred in them.

Which is why I offer a coaching session for crafting milestone rituals/ceremonies.

Because ritual allows our bodies and spirits to bond to meaning.

And because the wider culture doesn’t have a way to recognize so many of the life-transitions we experience (only the transitions that affirm our culture’s values), which means our bodies and our spirits are left hanging. 

I think ritual/ceremony can help with this—from divorce and miscarriage and health changes to house blessings and vocation changes and empty-nest transitions and sobriety celebrations. 

Here’s how it works:

I’ll send you some questions/exercises for pre-work, and then we’ll meet on zoom for a 90-minute coaching session to dream up your ritual/ceremony. We’ll make sure you have everything you need to allow your body and spirit to bond to meaning, and then we can practice the ritual together at the end of our session or you can save it for the right time. You can sign up here.

With gratitude,
Brianna
