About The Soulful Journey™
Your guide to creative transformation, self-discovery, and moving from Shadow to Light
How The Soulful Journey Began
The Soulful Journey didn’t arrive as a strategy or a plan.
It came as a whisper — a Soul Truth that found me in a season of inward turning:
I am being revealed to myself.
That sentence became the spark for a creative and spiritual framework that guides women through the natural rhythm of becoming.
As I listened more deeply, a five-stage cycle began to unfold: Shadow, Glimmers, Transition, Emergence, and Light — a journey that mirrors the real, human process of growth and self-discovery.
I thought it was my personal map.
But when I began to share it, other women immediately recognized themselves in its rhythm.
That’s when I knew: The Soulful Journey is a path for all of us.
And The Soulful Journey was born.
What the Soulful Journey Holds
The Soulful Journey™ is a creative-spiritual framework for women in midlife who want to make meaning of their lives, reconnect with their truth, and create from a place of presence rather than pressure.
This body of work brings together three foundational elements.
-
The Soul Stages: A Five-Part Shadow-to-Light Arc
A cyclical model of transformation that moves through
Shadow → Glimmers → Transition → Emergence → Light.
Each stage offers distinct wisdom and helps you understand where you are — and what your soul needs — in your current season. -
The Story Keepers: Archetypes of Inner Guidance
Five archetypal guides who reflect the wisdom within you:
the Deep Listener, the Awakener, the Midwife of Story, the Truth Teller, and the Luminary.
They help you navigate each stage with clarity, intuition, and compassion. -
The Four Pillars: Practices for Living Your Becoming
Honor Your Wisdom.
Nurture Your Soul.
Shape Your Story.
Share Your Light.These pillars help you ground your growth in real, soulful practices — creative, intuitive, sustainable.
Together, these elements create a path of healing, expression, and inner alignment that supports both creative transformation and personal growth.
Why This Work Matters
Midlife is a deeply creative season — but not always an easy one. Many women feel a quiet longing for meaning, clarity, or reconnection with themselves.
The Soulful Journey offers a framework to:
• understand where you are in your own transformation
• trust your inner rhythms and seasons
• reconnect with your voice, intuition, and creativity
• create from authenticity rather than urgency
• move from Shadow to Light with compassion and intention
This is not a linear process.
It’s a return — again and again — to what’s true.
Who The Soulful Journey Is For
This work is designed for midlife creative women who want depth, beauty, meaning, and a gentler way of being. It is especially for you if you:
• long to understand the season you’re in
• crave creative renewal and soul-tending
• want a clear yet compassionate path toward inner transformation
• are drawn to ritual, reflection, storytelling, and intuitive art
• feel something inside you is ready to rise — slowly, softly, and honestly
If you’re seeking a soulful framework to guide your becoming, you’re home.
How to Begin Your Soulful Journey
There is no single starting point.
Begin where your intuition lands.
You might choose to:
• explore the five Soul Stages
• meet the Story Keepers
• read the 12 Soul Truths
• take the Story Keepers Quiz
• begin with a guide, a ritual, or a workshop
• or simply sit with a single sentence that feels like it’s speaking directly to you
No matter where you start, begin gently.
Your story is layered.
Your art is sacred.
Your becoming is gently and continually unfolding.
Welcome to The Soulful Journey.
