The ‘wild bees of spirit‘ have spiraled back around, so it’s timely to share anew this “Thresholds and the Wild Bees of Spirit” musing from the Sophia’s Children treasure vault.
‘Tis the season, too, in the Northern Hemisphere, with Spring springing into bloom (and buzz) just now.
“There are a lot of people I know — and many I don’t know yet or may never know — who feel or have felt like they’re off-road or off-path, on that unexpected detour without map or compass. They feel like they’re muddling their way through the dark forest and “know it not” (as Dante said).
I’ve known this place, too. I know it now.
Perhaps for some of us, it is the ‘new normal’.
After all, someone needs to be leaving shiny breadcrumbs, lighting candles, standing vigil, and holding lanterns for other Forest Walkers, yes? Perhaps long ago, before coming into this life, you volunteered, too?”
Jamie has long been an inspiration partner and lantern-holder for her fellow transformation leaders, change catalysts, and creative nonconformists who are living, inspiring, and (intentionally or not) leading the way in these chaotic times.
When she's not tending and stirring the Sophia's Children cauldron, she's following research trails, and serving as the Director of a Repro-Justice-oriented women's health center in her community, co-creating a safe, in-person compassionate care environment in a world that increasingly seems to lack that.
Jamie is a long-time servant of the Muse, a writer and author, an intrepid walker and feline-tender, and is passionate about the healing power and relevance of reclaiming ancestral-wisdom and healing (or at least understanding) ancestral (and other types of) trauma. She has great appreciation for dark chocolate and cooking other nourishing, delicious meals -- often plant-based -- to nourish her partner and her peeps, and otherwise doing the same day to day things we all do.
