The Re-Emergence

As the summer solstice came upon us, I felt it was time to return.

Hello friends…

Thank you for still being here after my 6+ month hiatus.

I went through a necessary shedding this winter; my entire identity shifting through the seasons.

The biggest change of all is my name. I have chosen to return to my birth-name Nicole and I must say I’ve never felt more rooted & grounded.

It’s so good to be home.

With that I have also said goodbye to some old ways of being. Identities that simply didn’t fit me anymore.

I’ve had to rewrite my entire bio here, because the words on the page seemed to describe a stranger.

It is with much joy & delight that I return to this space; as the wild mother.

The one thing that has kept me rooted throughout it all is my connection to nature. It has become very clear to me that my main focus here is rewilding the spirit.

Which, in my humble opinion, can only truly be done outdoors, in a forest, on a mountain top, through a river or under the stars.

We all spend a little too much time on our phones (she writes, on her phone) and not enough time delighting in the real natural World.

The more I deepen into natures seasons the more I deepen into myself.

Rewilding doesn’t have to be something fancy. It’s noticing when the elder comes into blossom, when the wild rose begins to bloom. It’s watching the sky stay lighter at night and listening to the early morning birdsong. It’s seeing the wild flowers grow through the cracks of a pavement and knowing that your own innate wildness can not be contained by the concrete structures around you.

I’m letting go of the idea that I know anything about anything - but if you want to join me on this journey of re-discovering the wild in me and the wild in you, then please stay a while.

It’s lovely to have you here.
