$40-100/hr sliding scale but I never turn anyone away for financial reasons 🦋. I have developed coursework over 12 workshops on topics ranging from self-love to shadow work, Taoism, creative expression, grounded spirituality, ritual, somatic embodiment practices, and more for trauma recovery. Most importantly, I put my heart and soul into helping each of my clients heal and I focus on real, human connection. I have bipolar 1 and C-PTSD and my credential is my lived experience. I will help you reclaim your story. Email me for details: p2collective@protonmail.com

Step into The Forest That Eats Masks 🌲🖤✨ 🗓️ 7 pm EST on Sat May 23 In this trauma-informed workshop by The Purple Phoenix Collective, we’ll gently explore the parts of ourselves that learned to wear masks in order to survive. Through guided meditation, creativity, ritual, discussion, and somatic healing practices, we’ll begin reconnecting to the authentic self beneath the performance, fear, numbness, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and survival roles. Together, we will: 🕯️ Journey through a guided visualization called The Forest That Eats Masks 🐺 Meet a spirit guide who invites us to listen inward for our “True Name” 🎭 Reflect on the masks we’ve worn and why they protected us ✍️ Write a poem about our authentic selves (or create artwork instead) 🌿 Practice grounding rituals for healing and reconnection 🫀 Learn simple somatic tools to help us feel safer and more present in our bodies 💬 Share discussion in a supportive, laid-back, trauma-informed space You do not need to be “healed,” artistic, spiritual, or experienced to participate. You are welcome exactly as you are. The Purple Phoenix Collective is a creative healing community for trauma survivors centered around symbolism, creativity, nervous system healing, nature, storytelling, ritual, and authentic connection.

How can I stop fighting with my partner? You keep fighting yourself. The fights usually aren’t about what’s happening on the surface. They’re about the gap between reality and the picture in your head of how things “should” go. How they should respond. How the conversation should unfold. How love should feel. When reality breaks the script, you tense up. Push back. Try to regain certainty. Sometimes control disguises itself as care. You start treating your partner’s moods, reactions, distance, or unpredictability as threats instead of experiences to move through together. And the harder you try to manage the outcome, the more trapped both people feel. The brave move isn’t perfect communication. It’s letting go of the script entirely. Stop rehearsing your point. Stop predicting their response. See what actually happens when you allow the moment to be real instead of controlled. What should you do? • Before a difficult conversation, ask yourself: “What outcome am I trying to force?” • When tension rises, pause for 10 seconds before reacting. • Break one numbing habit after conflict. Stay present instead. • Ask one genuine question without trying to prove a point. • At the end of the week, tell your partner one thing they did that surprised you in a good way.

Is there a musical instrument or art form that that is used more to express or connect with spirituality?

Not everyone heals by sitting perfectly still and “thinking positive.” 🔥 Sometimes healing looks like: 🖋️ writing poetry at 2am 🌲 wandering through the woods trying to remember who you are 🫀 learning your nervous system isn’t your enemy 🎭 meeting the hidden parts of yourself 🕯️ creating rituals that make you feel human again 🌊 turning chaos into art, meaning, movement, and truth My 1:1 trauma-informed coaching blends: ✨ creative expression ✨ symbolism & personal mythology ✨ somatic and nervous system practices ✨ guided visualizations & inner world exploration ✨ parts work & shadow work ✨ spirituality, nature, storytelling, and authentic self-reclamation This isn’t about becoming “perfect.” It’s about becoming real. 🐦‍🔥 I live with C-PTSD and bipolar 1 disorder. I bring wisdom from lived experience alongside training and years of deep inner work. I know what it’s like to feel fragmented, overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, and desperate to find meaning inside the chaos. The space I create is not clinical, cold, or one-size-fits-all. It’s human. ☯️ If you feel like you’ve lost yourself somewhere along the way… maybe we can help you find your way back. DM me for more info 💜 or email me at p2collective@protonmail.com. Also check out our free support circles and donation-only workshops every Saturday! 🦋 Kristina
