It isn't an accident that you're here. Something has brought you to this place — curiosity, exhaustion, a quiet knowing that there has to be another way. Whatever it is, it's worth paying attention to.

While you're here, notice what is speaking to you. Notice when your body responds to something you read. The whispers of your soul are real, and they're worth following. And if you want someone to walk that path with you, I'm here.

“ Taren holds space in such a tender, beautiful and powerful way. I immediately felt that I could trust her with my experience.

Her guidance and teachings helped me to better embody my own sense of power again. I had been afraid of getting hurt again, but her steadiness and support allowed me to also feel into my own sense of sturdiness. This is exactly what I needed. I still think about her lessons on leadership. I am forever grateful for how she helped me stop feeling ashamed, and instead showed me the gift that my leadership brings to my whole family. She showed me the relationship between leadership and sovereignty and the magic of aligning those. Today, my home life is so much more in flow. My relationship with my husband has improved, and I'm excited about the work I'm doing. “

Hey! I’m Taren.

I help people get back in their bodies and become conscious authors of the story they are living.

I worked as a photographer, director, writer, and producer for 15 years. I was successful, creative, and completely depleted— living disconnected from my body and everything it was trying to tell me. Discovering somatic healing changed everything.

I share this work because I know its power.

I come to this work with a relational, paced, and holistic perspective. One that honors the mess and process of life, and finds beauty in being human, in all our intricacies. Through somatic healing, personal myth, and deep inner work, I help people reclaim the parts of themselves they were taught to abandon and remember what it means to tend the wild, living ecosystem within.

I trust the body’s intelligence, and its natural capacity to self-organize and heal. My role is to create a space safe enough for that wisdom to emerge, so you can reclaim your power and begin rewriting your story from the inside out.
