Threshold Weaver:

For women crossing major life thresholds with courage and embodied wisdom

 

Threshold Weaver

Somatic, Intuitive coaching for women crossing life’s thresholds

What Is Threshold Weaver?

Threshold Weaver is 1:1 guidance for women standing at a life crossing, a moment where the old ways no longer fit and the new has not yet taken shape.

This is not therapy, this is transformational coaching.
It is not problem-solving or optimization.

It is a relational, embodied practice of listening, discerning, and weaving meaning from transition.

Thresholds are initiatory spaces. They include birth, grief, vocation shifts, identity changes, illness, awakenings, endings, and becoming. These moments ask us to slow down, to tend the nervous system, and to reconnect with inner and ancestral wisdom.

Threshold Weaver exists to meet you inside the crossing — not to rush you through it.

The Lineage of This Work

This offering is guided by ancient ways of understanding transition.

The work is informed by:

  • Somatic practice and nervous system awareness

  • Navigating liminal and threshold spaces

  • Ancestral remembrance and ritual

  • The archetype of the Weaver — the grandmother who spins meaning from experience, weaving threads that bring form and creation

  • The spirit of Brigid (Celtic Goddess & Saint), guardian of the hearth and keeper of the flame, who stands at the threshold between worlds.

In many traditions, thresholds were not meant to be crossed alone.
They were held by elders, midwives, storytellers, and keepers of the fire.

Threshold Weaver restores that kind of presence.

How We Work Together

Threshold Weaver is currently offered as a 1:1 container

This work is:

  • Somatic — we listen to the body as a source of truth

  • Intuitive — drawing out inner knowing rather than imposing direction

  • Relational — grounded in attuned, compassionate presence

  • Practical + mystical — meaning-making that lives in real life

Sessions may include:

  • Nervous system regulation and grounding practices

  • Guided inquiry and intuitive reflection

  • Somatic tracking and embodiment

  • Ritual, symbolism, and ancestral listening

  • Discernment around purpose, identity, and next steps

Nothing is forced.
Nothing is bypassed.

We work at the pace of integration.

Who This Is For

Threshold Weaver is for women who:

  • Are in the midst of a major life transition

  • Feel the old story unraveling but the new one unclear

  • Sense there is wisdom in their experience that hasn’t yet been named

  • Want guidance that honors body, spirit, and lineage

  • Are ready for depth, presence, and honest reflection

  • Are experiencing identity shifts and seeking deep transformation

You do not need to arrive with a clear goal.
You only need willingness to listen and a deep commitment to self exploration

Containers & Commitment

After an initial Alignment Call, clients are invited into either a:

  • 4-month container — for focused support through a specific transition

  • 6-month container — for deeper unraveling, reweaving, and integration

Each container offers spaciousness, consistency, and continuity — essential ingredients for true transformation.

An Invitation

Thresholds are not meant to be rushed.
They are meant to be tended.

If you feel yourself standing at the edge — curious, unsure, grieving, or becoming~ you are welcome to begin with an alignment call.

Together, we will listen for the threads that are ready to be woven.

Threshold Weaver is a devotion to the in-between.

It honors the moments when the old life loosens its grip and the new has not yet spoken.
When certainty dissolves.
When the body remembers before the mind understands.

This work is guided by the weaver — the grandmother who spins meaning from adversity — and by Brigid, keeper of the hearth and guardian of sacred crossings.

Here, nothing is rushed.
Nothing is wasted.

We slow the nervous system.
We listen for ancestral echoes.
We tend the inner fire.

Threshold Weaver is not about fixing or becoming someone new.
It is about remembering what is already alive within you — and weaving it forward with care.
