honoring my teachers ❃
Two of the most frequently asked questions I get are, “Christie, who are your teachers? What kind of trainings and workshops have you taken?”
My teachers have been profound holders on my journey and have helped me grow, heal, and shed layers upon layers of unconscious, limiting beliefs.
Honoring my teachers and lineage is one of the most important things I can do as a coach, guide, and facilitator. Ultimately, each teacher of mine—regardless of how long I spent with them or whether or not I still agree with their teachings—has shaped my offerings, my teaching and coaching style, my essence, and how I show up in the world.
Some teachers, classes, programs that I owe deep gratitude to:

And the sky; the moss; the dirt and the wet earth; the void; eros; the Lenape land that I live + love on; the Hudson River; my best friends and sisters on the path; writers, teachers, and artists I’ve witnessed and have been impacted by from afar; and my former somatic therapist who guided me through a deeper unfolding.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am forever grateful.
