Shauna created a beautiful, respectful and intentionally safe place for us to all come together and reflect upon, learn, and share traumatic internal landscapes. Truly healing and such important work.

Shauna is a gifted and balanced teacher. Her practical, grounded yet deeply intuitive nature allowed everyone in our group to relate to her in their own way, and she held our ritual container with such safety and support. I feel blessed to have had her as a leader in this work!

Thank you for holding space for grief healing. The workshop has helped my tie together grief and addictions recovery in a way I will be able to more clearly articulate to my supports.

Really relevant material presented by someone who is clearly very knowledgeable, passionate, and able to articulate thoughts/ideas clearly and eloquently. The personal reflection was unique and helpful in terms of exploring where I am at in dealing with my own losses. The introspection was surprising and enlightening.

Shauna’s vibrancy and authenticity and deep listening skills all serve her well in meeting people where they’re at, and encouraging them along their individual journey. This was one of the best workshops I have ever taken - and I have taken a lot, so I don’t say that lightly!

Very awesome workshop - interesting, knowledgeable, and self-reflective. You are an awesome instructor and facilitator Shauna. Great energy - thank you!

I came into the space with enormous fear around having to express my emotions around my grief and found instead it was not so scary or painful because of the way it was led by Shauna. I was able to recognize that I need further support and gained some incredible new tools in the process.

Shauna, you do an excellent job of modelling the very skills and strategies you're sharing with us. There is such value in being able to create the type of safe and intentional space for real sharing. This space is what I would describe as the most helpful and all the great info was a bonus! I was amazed at what we moved through in 2 hours. It was very well paced - so much information but it didn't fell overwhelming at all. I LOVED the images of nature exercise - grounded the group and brought everyone in to the room. The 5 touchstones were also really helpful - brief and easy to grab a hold of them.

Shauna is a master at creating a safe space in which to explore and heal the difficult emotions, those which our culture and society typically encourage us to avoid or bury. Thank you for the work you do, Shauna, it is so important.

Just so much in this workshop was valuable. To know that no matter what our life experiences, we can all connect on those fundamental yearnings of love, connection and belonging was really insightful.
