i am an embodiment writer, wholeness seeker and community maker.  

my work: an intimate, sensual full-bodied immersion into mind, body, being through words and movement. breath and meditation. ritual and blessing. 

i found communities that live beyond cultural norms, outside of outdated modes of expression. 

places that invite a slowing, stilling. to listen in and hear the secrets, the stories, the ancestors. 

to speak body, earth, being. 

to weave the words of the mind with the whispers of the bones, blood, muscles, tendons. 

it is a making whole – uniting body with mind. learned wisdom with present knowing. 

this isn’t healing, trauma work or therapy although we dance the edges of the dark when we open to the light. this isn’t ranting, blaming, or raging against but rewriting, reclaiming, reimagining. 

this is the work of the wild soul who takes her pleasure seriously, creates her art energetically, and tends to her life with the utmost reverence.

i open doors, portals, and hearts. i create spaces, revelations and soul families. i crave expansion, beauty and stripped-down true. 

i have been building community online since 2008. as a private coach, podcaster, artist collective founder and embodied writing teacher.

“Thank you for the writing workshop. it was so deep and generous and full of wisdom. I love how you hold the space, the intentions you communicate and the way you guide us into our bodies so we can write what needs to come out. You are so gifted as a leader, as a healer, as a guide, you really are.” – emma f.

i am a writer, certified intuitive movement meditation teacher, lay ordained zen buddhist, and podcaster with over 250,000 downloads.

i teach an embodied writing series 4 times a year, run an intuitive movement community and offer group and private coaching.

“I want you to know how accepted I felt in your presence. You weren’t trying to get me to be anyone I wasn’t. You had no agenda. And I think that’s why I was able to start writing, and eventually share it with others.” – sarah k.

“Thank you so much for this beautiful, safe, warm, sacred container. It is changing my life. Thank you!!!” – sara r.

i’m a graduate of the school of womanly arts, explosive sexual healing, and the national institute of whole health.

i’m always asking questions. as rob bell said to me, “you have serious curiosity. it’s formidable – your question asking prowess.” i believe questions are the answers we’re seeking.

i create sacred spaces for making honest art and living honest lives.

“thank you so much, Daphne!

I don’t know how to express my gratitude for this beautiful, nurturing and lovely space that you make available for us to create together. It really touches my heart!  I was, and am still, crying with joy.” – claudia a.
