Hello, dear readers! I hope you're all hanging in there. June has, thus far, been a month of exploration, expansion, and tension between anxiety and joy. I continue to be unemployed, and finances continue to feel uncomfortably tight. But there have also been so many things that have felt really good this month, and I want to celebrate that. I also did a tarot reading for myself on Thursday based…

The Wayfinding Toolkit

Feeling lost or overwhelmed? Unsure of your next steps? The Wayfinding Toolkit is here to help. Included in this toolkit are:

• an initial spiritual companionship session that includes a live Wayfinding tarot reading
• a follow-up session 2 - 4 weeks later to further process and integrate
• a copy of the Wayfinding solo journaling game to further support…

Hello, dear readers! Today's blog is going to be a little different than what I've written here in the past, and might be marking a shift in how I use the platform going forward. I intend to start using this space to write more about my approach to tarot, as I'm working to expand that part of what I'm offering alongside spiritual companionship services. I know not everyone who's signed up for…

Tarot is a mirror

There's so much more to tarot than stereotypes.

Our brains are wired to notice patterns and make connections. The images in a tarot deck are evocative, and the meanings drawn from those images will be different each time you approach them, because the context in which you’re viewing them is constantly changing. No two readings are alike, because no two readers, no…

Games can help us imagine better worlds into being.

I believe that role playing games have tremendous potential for helping us to develop deeper empathy, connect with parts of ourselves we often ignore, and imagine new ways of being in the world. Play can teach us things about our “real” selves that we might otherwise miss, and experiences of play can be steered in a transformative…

Hello, dear readers—I hope you're all hanging in there. It is a wild time to be alive and living...anywhere, really, but it's felt particularly wild here in the Twin Cities.

Never in my life have I been so proud to be a Minnesotan (which is saying something, because I have always had a deep affection for my home state). As you've doubtless seen in the news, ICE has been terrorizing Minneapolis,…

Hello, dear readers, and welcome, somehow, impossibly, to 2026. If you're reading this, you made it, and I'm proud of you. 2025 was a wild year for most everyone I know, with some towering highs and terrible lows, and I thought I'd take a little time to reflect on my own version of that here at the start of the new year. Much like last year, I'm still feeling out exactly how personal I want to…

Hello, dear readers—it's been a while. Since I last blogged, I've graduated from United Theological Seminary of the Twin Cities with my Master of Arts in Leadership in Spiritual Direction. In July, my partner and I bought a house. I finished the last of my classes in August, and have since been decompressing and rediscovering beloved hobbies that had taken a backseat while I was in school—I've…

Hello, dear readers. It's been a while. I've been writing a lot this year, but mostly that energy has been funneled toward songwriting. I'm really enjoying it, but today it feels like it's time for a blog post.

Every morning (or almost every morning), I draw a tarot card for my day, not so much as a predictor of how the day will go but as an idea of an energy I can ground into or check in with…

Wondering if spiritual companionship is a good fit for you?

If you are interested in making meaning out of Big Life Stuff, you are welcome here.

Whether you subscribe to a particular organized religious system, categorize yourself as “spiritual but not religious,” identify as agnostic, or are firmly an atheist, spiritual companionship offers a non-judgmental space to explore…
