Does this sound like your experience?
- Not asking for what you want because it’s “too much”
- Finding yourself avoiding, or not taking action around what you what
- Feeling fear, doubt, anger, or grief around your desire(s)
- Settling for what you think you can have
- You have multiple desires that conflict or compete with each other
- You feel frustrated, wanting things in your life to be different, but not sure how to
- You have a big desire, but feel afraid of what it would mean to really receive it
How would your life be different if you were able to receive what [REALLY] matters to you?
Imagine this. . .
- Having a solid and clear connection to what is MOST important to you in your life, and making decisions from this place
- Befriending your resistances so that you can move through them in a easeful, loving, and playful way
- Have a deep trust that your deepest needs and values can be met in a multitude of ways
- Embodying such a clear signal of your desires that they come to you without you even asking
I was blown away by how supportive the group was in helping me peel away the shame, guilt, and grief that was holding me back from really receiving what I wanted. I feel so touched and so incredibly grateful, Thank you.
Why is important to do this in a Group?
-
Emotional Alchemy
When we explore desire its VERY common for big emotions - especially grief- to arise. I have found that these feelings moves through us best when we receive loving support from a group to help us feel it. -
Being Seen, Heard & Reflected
One of my most powerful moments in this series was having another person reflect back to me my deeper desire to me. The beauty of having another person help us navigate our inner world and reflect back to us parts of us we don't see is a huge part of this journey. -
Real Life Practice and Integration
For most people we are more likely to continue practicing a new habit when we are a part of a group who is supporting this new way of being. Together we get to practice, and integrate a new connection to our desire through movement, sharing and mutual support.
I absolutely loved this, so powerful!
Awesome format…loved the mix of journaling, practice tools, and group exercises …. and such rich content! Wow, time flew! So rich and so good. Thank you!

I really enjoyed this course. I love how focused on the body it is. It supported me so much in connecting to all the layers of desire. Such a powerful and potent experience! I also so love the way Jen holds space. I trust how she is present to what's unfolding, with strength and love, welcoming every experience and empowering me to be my full self in all that's here.
Topic 1 - Befriending Your Resistance
Sometimes we don’t allow ourselves to fully want what we want because we are afraid it would threaten our relationships, our sense of self, or our sense of love and belonging. Together we will practice an incredibly simple way to bring in more unconditional acceptance for ourselves, our feelings, our resistances and yes, our desires. By offering this to each other we will also create a powerful container for the shadow aspects of us to be seen and loved.
In this month we will practice together:
- Honoring & be-friending our resistance
- Integrate the P.L.A.I mode to release intensity, judgement and fear
- Practice cultivating both inner and outer belonging
Topic 2 - Emotions as your Ally
Did you know that many emotions carry important information around what we most desire?
Many of us have not been given permission to feel and express these feelings, much less understand their deeper wisdom.
Together we will review the 4 emotions that often accompany desire and how each one has a unique piece of wisdom for us. For each emotion you will receive a tool to support you in allowing it to move through you, and understanding its gift for you.
In this month you’ll learn tools to support you specifically with:
- Sadness
- Anger
- Fear
- Avoidance
Topic 3 - The Art of Receiving
In this month we will work towards creating more legitimacy and congruency when it comes to receiving our desires including..
- Mapping the deeper values and needs underneath your desire s
- Simple exercise to release attachment to how your desire needs to show up
- Somatic practices to create more safety in your body to receive more

I found this series to be powerful and potent… Such a gift to be seen, witnessed and held in a group container around desire. It felt powerful to own my desire and explore its validity and also felt so helpful in the releasing of shame around it. It felt vulnerable, sweet and powerful exploring this in a well held group. I highly recommend it, and I look forward to doing more in future!
