Nurture To Flourish

The path to purpose
The physical transition of my mother was an initiation that continues to shape my path to purpose. It was a sacred pilgrimage that brought me to the depths of the underworld, and guided me closer to my heart in ways I never fathomed possible.
​
The journey gifted me insight to a path of healing and expansion. At the tender age of 25, I was traversing the ebbs and flows of emotions, unraveling the threads of my being, and metamorphosing into a new incarnation of myself.
The last week of her life is something that will always stay with me, filled with moments that will remain etched in my heart. I can still recall the warmth of her body as we lay together on the sofa, knowing that it would be the last time we would be this close.
The evening before she crossed the threshold, I felt her 'mother worries' , her tension, and her struggle to find peace. She was too weak to communicate at this point, but I sensed all that she was holding.
And so I channeled words of reassurance, and caressed her face with a full heart of affection. There was a palpable shift in the atmosphere, as her aura glowed with a vibrant shade of purple. The woman that brought me into this world was dying, and I had the immense honor to be her guide into the next journey of her soul.
And thus began a celestial romance, one that transcends the mundane and elevates the soul. She graces me with her presence through the symphonies of birds, and the delicate flutter of butterfly wings. Her voice echoes through the whispered secrets of books that call out to me.
Every year, on the anniversary of her passing, I wander in nature with a bundle of flowers to create a beautiful mandala. This ritual serves as a reminder of what it means to be human and exist on this earth, embracing the full spectrum of emotions – from grief to gratitude.
"Daniella taught me that there's always a kind way to engage, to interact, to teach, to learn. She taught me the power of language and how that can be the salve to so many wounds." - Mama Julia
As a space tender and a creative spirit, my essence is a mosaic of diverse learning containers and experiences. First and foremost, I am a student of life, for life. I embrace every moment with an open and curious heart, finding valuable wisdom in all my relational explorations. I draw from various studies and interests including somatic awareness, nature connection, intuitive guiding, compassionate communication, grief tending and inner child work.
With great respect, I honor and acknowledge the Coast Miwok people,who have tended and sustained these ancestral lands over generations. It is a privilege to be a guest listening, playing, and creating on these sacred grounds.I am grateful for the wisdom of this land and the great abundance it offers me daily.
