Refined, spacious, sacred work
Women are drawn to my approach when they are done with:
- overstimulation
- overwhelm
- hustle as identity
- emotional reactivity
- mothering without support
- living out of alignment with their intuition
- the pressure to perform their femininity or their spirituality
They want a mentor who has lived it.
A woman with depth.
A guide with integrity.
A space that feels safe, wise, and refined.
My method is spacious.
My containers are intimate.
My work is for the woman who is ready to lead herself in a new way.
Why women come to me
Because I speak to the part of you that's been waiting:
to exhale,
to soften,
to rise,
to remember,
to reclaim,
to lead,
to become.
Because I hold a space where women elevate without force.
Where healing happens organically.
Where intuition becomes leadership.
Where identity evolves with grace.
Where life becomes intentional, rhythmic, and sacred.
Because you are ready for the next chapter, and I know how to walk you into it.
Mission
Vision
Founder
Elise Bowerman
My life's work is a living practice - rooted in experience, refined through motherhood, and devoted to restoring women's connection to their bodies, intuition, and one another.
Everything I share is informed by the thresholds I've walked through myself: birth, loss, healing, caregiving, and ongoing becoming that unfolds with raising children into their teen years.
Over the past two decades, I've guided women through dance, Reiki, yoga, womb circles, Ayurvedic and homeopathic medicines, and childbirth and postpartum support. These modalities (including some not named here) have become the language through which I help women remember what it means to live in alignment - to bridge the sacred and the everyday.
We are here to live fully on Earth.
There's no need to wait for change to come. It begins with the life you live. Right now. Today.
Where I am today
I am a matriarchal mentor, prenatal/postnatal educator, women's circle facilitator, and board member of Birth Detroit, guiding women into deeper inner authority and embodied feminine leadership.
I've supported over 2,200 women through pregnancy, postpartum, motherhood, and feminine initiation - and trained teachers to do the same with depth and integrity.
Raising teenagers, holding a 17-year marriage, and caregiving in the "sandwich generation" has refined my understanding of relational leadership, emotional maturity, and intentional living.
Serving in maternal health advocacy has expanded my devotion to women's sovereignty, dignity, and agency.
