I help people turn life transitions into rites of passage
At the very end, what we treasure, and makes us US, are the moments of pure connection: with ourselves, the people we love, community, spirit.

ABOUT YOURS TRULY
I design rituals and ceremonies for people going through major life changes because I’ve found nothing more powerful than using ritual to help transitions become rites of passage.
For the past decade, I’ve been designing and facilitating experiences for people to deeply connect. From my days as a matchmaker and dating coach (when ABC coined me as “The Female Hitch“) to wide-ranging two-person rituals and 20-person Jeffersonian-style dinners, elaborate 1,000+-person theatrical productions (think “Sleep No More”), secret society women’s circles, and conferences at places like Lincoln Center and SXSW.
