ALETHEIA
A Private Creative Intensive for Women Serving their Soul’s Work
You are a visionary, a healer, a leader — and you are birthing worlds.
This is not a small thing. The bodies of work emerging through women like you are not personal brands. They are medicine. They are structural interventions. They carry the intelligence of decades of living, tending, and knowing in ways that cannot be manufactured or rushed.
And yet — something essential often remains just out of reach. The full image of your work. The visual and felt sense of what you are actually carrying into the world.
Aletheia is an ancient Greek word meaning the unconceiling of truth — truth as revelation. Something moves from the shadow into the light. This is what we are here to do.
You are a force of nature
Your brand imagery should feel just as powerful and alive as you are
The Journey
Over two days together on Salt Spring Island, I will guide you into the imaginal realm where your soul's work lives — through embodied ritual, creative practice, and deep listening.
This is a courageous endeavour. It will bring you back into primary relationship with the living world around you, and into direct communion with the animate intelligence of what you are building.
You will soften toward, surrender into, and touch the deepest essence of your work.
I will hold you in that process — and I will capture it.
Through photography and film, we will create one-of-a-kind images that are not representations of your work — they areyour work. Visual artifacts of an inner world made visible. Each image a portal. Each frame a truth uncovered.
THE THREE STAGES OF ALETHEIA
Passage into your deepest expression occurs through the 3 stages of Aletheia. This is not as a linear progression, but a deepening spiral. Each stage prepares the ground for the next. Together they form a complete arc through which you arrive at the altar of the artistry that lives inside of you.
Stage One: MELETE / THE TENDING
Day One: Morning into Afternoon
Before anything can be retrieved, the ground must be prepared.
The Tending is the work of arrival — of slowing down enough to actually land. In a culture that rewards speed and productivity, this stage is quietly radical. You are not here yet to make anything. You are here to soften, to orient, to begin listening beneath the noise of your ordinary life.
Through somatic practice and guided movement, we release the body from the posture of doing. Through writing and deep reflection, we begin to map the interior landscape — what you are carrying, what has been waiting, what wants to be known. Oracle and ritual objects become mirrors, offering back what the thinking mind cannot yet see.
This is the tending of the soul's garden before the harvest. Careful. Unhurried. Full of reverence for what is already alive in you.
Practices: somatic arrival, guided movement, reflective writing, oracle work, ceremonial opening
Stage Two: MNEME / THE RETRIEVAL
Day One: Afternoon into Evening, and Day Two: Morning
Something in you already knows. The Retrieval is the work of going down to meet it.
Mneme — memory — is not nostalgia. It is the active excavation of what lives beneath your formed ideas about your work. The stories that shaped it. The images that have always haunted you. The knowing that arrived before you had language for it. The soul of your work did not begin when you named it. It has been gathering for a lifetime.
Through deep listening practices, embodied inquiry, and layers of written and somatic excavation, we descend together into the imaginative and felt ground of what you are building. This stage can be surprising. Tender. Disorienting in the most generative way.
Rest and digestion are woven through. This is not a rushing. We move at the pace of truth.
By the time morning of day two arrives, something has shifted. You have touched the living core of what you carry. Now it is ready to meet the light.
Practices: deep listening, embodied inquiry, layered writing, somatic descent, rest and integration
Stage Three: AOEDE / THE REVEALING
Day Two: Late Morning through Late Afternoon
This is what you came for.
Aoede is song — the form that the soul's knowing finally takes in the world. In Aletheia, The Revealing is the photography and film ceremony: a portal into direct experience with the image of your work made visible.
You will be guided into the ceremonial space with intention and care — costumed, oriented, and held. Drawing on everything that has been tended and retrieved, you will move, be still, inhabit and express. I will meet you there with camera ready, witnessing and capturing what emerges.
These are not photographs of you. They are photographs of what moves through you. One-of-a-kind images and film that carry the full intelligence of your soul's work — its texture, its power, its particular light.
The images that emerge from this ceremony are visual artifacts of an inner world made visible. They are not a representation of your brand. They are your brand — alive, true, unconcealable.
Before you depart, we will sit together with what has been revealed. You will see yourself and your work reflected back in a way you may never have seen before. And we will begin to vision how these images and film want to live out in the world — as the fullest, most luminous expression of your medicine.
Practices: photography ceremony, film, embodied expression, closing ritual.

My name is Jenny
I have been working with medicine women for the last 10 years, collaborating in a deep exploration of their authentic expression through photography and film. I do this work because it was the medicine that I needed when I felt disconnected from my power.
Those who cary a great desire to leave a legacy, to heal generational trauma, to uplift and heal the collective, need to be held and seen.
Creating beauty that can be used to uplift and inspire others is esspecially rewarding as a creative. I am inspired and transformed by every woman that I have the pleasure to create with.
I receive the essence of their transmission/medicine and reflect that medicine back to them so that they can continue to feel uplifted and inspired by the presence of the divine that lives within them and feeds their work in the world.
I believe that creating art in the way that I do opens a channel to the Animate Earth and in doing so we all benefit from the stories that emerge within the layers of colour, shape, emotion, movement, and texture.
