✨ 10 Days Left for Early Bird Applications! ✨

What is The Field?

The Field is a living transmission. It’s an intelligence that comes alive in group that you can sense, feel, tab into, source and lead from.

The Field Training is a somatic, relational, trauma-informed approach to group facilitation.

It’s a way of leading that centers presence, attunement, and emergence.

🌀 The Field Facilitator Training teaches you how to:
— Root in your body and nervous system
— Track the unseen dynamics in groups
— Facilitate transformational spaces with integrity
— Design workshops and lead from the unknown
— Mature your voice as a resonant, relational embodied leader

🌱 The Arc of the Journey (5 Modules over 12 months):

Module 1: The Ground – Embodiment & Relational Intelligence
Learn to anchor in your body, attune to others, and find your “seat” as a facilitator. This module builds the somatic and interpersonal foundation for all that follows.

Module 2: The Container – Coherence, Structure & Group Dynamics
Explore how to build safe, coherent, and transformational group spaces. You’ll learn the architecture behind fields that support emergence, healing, and truth-telling.

Module 3: The Pulse – Practicum I & Emergent Facilitation
Begin facilitating your own workshops with real-time support and feedback. This is where your unique facilitation voice starts to take shape through practice.

Module 4: The Voice – Practicum II, Circlework & Resonant Leadership
Deepen into circle work and embodied leadership. You’ll refine your presence, sharpen your listening, and expand your capacity to lead in complexity and truth.

Module 5: The Offering – Co-Facilitate at the Field Festival
Step into leadership at our co-created Field Festival in Sweden. This is where integration meets celebration and the field becomes your offering to the world.

This Facilitation & Leadership training is unlike any other. You can expect an experiential journey learning the HOW more than the WHAT. It will transform how you lead, listen, speak, and show up in the world.

“I can trust my impulses.” -A simple sentence that can change everything.

In Field Facilitation, the group becomes a fractal mirror. What moves through the space reflects what is integrated, coherent, and true in the facilitator (and also, what’s not).

Which means, for example, that the more I trust my impulses, the more permission I offer others to trust theirs.

This has been one of the great ongoing inquiries (and sometimes also challenging reflections) of my life… especially as a mother, a leader, a lover, and a field weaver.

It might sound simple. But in truth, it’s one of the most difficult and devotional paths I know.

The deeper I reach into myself (and the more people I support) I see how profound the challenge really is to trust our bodies authentic impulses.

To trust the very thing we were conditioned to override. To return to what is true, coherent and whole- our embodied wisdom.

Where I am today feels like tasting the fruit of years of unlearning, healing, and coming home to my body.

There are countless doorways into this work, and just as many off-ramps. But again and again, I find myself landing in the mystery of emergence.

In spaces that invite us beyond form, beyond prediction, planning, or performance we inevitably meet that first layer of unlearning.

This is where trauma-informed awareness becomes essential as we begin to see what shaped our impulses… Why we overrode them, how we learned to mistrust them and, eventually, how we can return to our intuition and deep core centered listening.

After the peeling back, there comes a re-membering. A reclaiming of our original innocence and coherence. Listening for truth, not from fear or programming, but from the soul.

This is not something you “get” in a weekend. It’s not a single cathartic moment. It’s a slow becoming. A spiral path and daily devotion that shows up across years and lifetimes.

And yet… there are those moments.

At the closing circle of Embodied Emergence, a retreat I recently co-facilitated with Christian Pankhurst, one woman stood in the center of the group and declared with her whole being: “I can trust my impulses.”

It wasn’t just a statement she made with words. When she spoke I could feel it was embodied, clean, and undeniable. Her words and her body matched. That’s a truth I can trust.

It mirrored something I have come to know in my own bones.

And in that moment, I saw the echo.

She could trust her impulses because we had cultivated a space where that knowing could emerge.

That’s the kind of field I love to co-create. It’s the kind of work I believe in. And it holds a quality of space where we grow, together.

What’s coming up next:
☉ EMBODIED RELATING: | June 28–29 | de Roos, Amsterdam
☉ Intimacy Summer Camp 2025 | July 14–27 | Skeppsudden, Sweden
☉ The Field Festival 2025 | August 15–20 | Ängsbacka, Sweden

And... if you want to learn how to hold space for this quality of experience and to become a trauma-informed, field-led facilitator who trusts the intelligence of the whole…

For the past three years, I’ve been living inside the question “How do we teach Field Facilitation? Not just as a skillset, but as an embodied transmission of safety, presence, truth and leadership?”

And the answer, while never final, continues to slowly reveal itself.

One of the essential elements has landed through the medicine of the meeting point between Catherine Hale’s “Culture of Care,” through The Field Facilitator Training, and through the humbling mirror of my own nervous system.

We’ve created an extremely beautiful online container called, The Field Facilitator Training ONLINE to support the learning and integration of this material.

It’s a 6 month trauma-informed, internationally certifiable journey. Designed for facilitators, space-holders, and emergent leaders who are ready to walk the path of embodied group facilitation with clarity, courage, and care.

From the center of my heart I can honestly say that this is the training I wish had existed when I started, and all the other moments in my career of becoming.

For years, I believed I was holding trauma-informed space. And in many ways, I was.

I could track the field. I could hold a lot. I could guide people into deep states and support them when they got “activated/triggered.”

But what I hadn’t fully realized was that both trauma-informed space holding and field facilitation do not start with tools, it starts with the facilitator’s own nervous system.

This realization changed everything.

So, I had to meet the parts of me that were over-stretching. The parts that were sourcing safety through attunement without anchoring it inside myself. And that were subtly bypassing my own thresholds in service of others.

Slowly, I began (and continue) to clean up the places I wasn't fully inhabiting, to come into deeper honesty, and to build a foundation of integrity that felt undeniably true in my body.

This training is born from that reckoning (probably for both Catherine and myself) and from our shared longing to offer something better than what's currently available.

This is not just about “do no harm.” But more to, leave people better than they came.

We’ll explore:
🌿 Trauma-Informed Foundations
✨ Facilitating Emergence
🔥 Safe & Brave Containers
🌀 Nervous System Mastery
👣 Embodied Leadership
💗 Regenerative Self-Care
🌱 Sustainable Business Skills
💸 Healing Your Money Story

To be super clear this is not a training to become a trauma therapist.

This is a training to become a more trustworthy facilitator and space-holder.

Because when people feel safe, they go deeper and when facilitators are embodied, the field becomes medicine.

If you're feeling the pull to step into more honest, trauma-informed leadership. If you know group facilitation is part of your calling. If you want to join a truly global group of practice rooted in integrity and relational care… This is for you.

Super early bird pricing ends tomorrow, June 15th. Get registered today to get the journey started.

EMBODIED RELATING: is happening soon!

In 2 weeks I’ll be headed to Amsterdam for this special weekend event, and ticket sales are now coming in and landing with more impact… There’s a particular kind of aliveness I love when the right people start finding their way in, and the field begins to shape itself before we’ve even arrived.

One of the questions I keep getting asked is: “Is this for couples only?”

And the answer (as it almost always is in my work) is: NO.

Embodied Relating isn’t about being in a couple. It’s about being human.

It’s about learning how to be with another from the body, not just the story.

It’s about discovering what happens when we meet in presence, breath and attunement.

It’s about practicing the kind of connection that any of us can benefit from… whether single, partnered, undefined, poly, transitioning, exploring.

Because there’s no separation, really, between "single work" and "couples work."

We all carry the same longings. The same patterns. The same need for repair and new relational imprints.

And when we come together and we are diverse in our configurations but united in our humanity, we start to remember what’s possible in relationship when we move from truth, not performance or projection.

This weekend is super alive for me right now and that combination of outer receptivity and inner inspiration is the perfect meeting point for magic.

I am beyond excited and so very honored to share the first round of presenters confirmed for the very first Field Festival!

This event is for those who feel it’s time to reimagine festival culture.

To move beyond personal growth into collective evolution.
To place the group -the field between us- at the heart of transformation.

Yes to personal development. Yes to relational healing. And… the group is what’s next.

This festival is for those ready to gather in presence, embodiment, and service… not just to self, but to something greater than us all.

These 30+ brilliant beings are the first of many who will hold space, guide, attune, and listen to the field.

More presenters, musicians, and magic to be announced soon.

*And heads up: only 5 early bird tickets remain*

If you know you're coming, now's the time.

We are going co-create something unprecedented, together.
