What Is the Sister Wound?
STAY TUNED - THE END WILL TELL YOU ALL ABOUT MY PROCESS IF YOU WANT TO BOOK WITH ME
This is a subject have been diving more into since I went on an all women’s SELF LOVE retreat in Costa Rica a few months back. Stay tuned for links at the end of this blog!
The sister wound is the inherited pain that lives in the space between women.
It’s the fear of not being good enough. The need to compare.
The mistrust. The competition.
The subtle belief that another woman’s light dims your own.
It’s the way we’ve been conditioned to protect ourselves from each other—
to shrink in one another’s presence,
to judge or be judged,
to withhold love because we fear there isn’t enough.
But it didn’t start with you or me.
It’s generational.
It’s systemic.
It was passed down by a world that feared what women could doif we stood together.
My personal story, my mom was an alcoholic when I was very young. She eventually quit and did her best to better herself, but the wounds had been set. She had deep wounds from her mother and her owns siters. They all swirled around me with their wounds for years. This dug the knife in the wound further, leading me to not trust women, and craving the simplicity of a male friendship, or just wanting the constant attention of a man.
HOW DO WE HEAL FROM THE SISTER WOUND? We heal by reclaiming connection.
By remembering that we are mirrors, not threats.
By learning to celebrate, not compete.
We heal when we choose softness where there used to be silence or judgement or both.
When we cheer each other on, even when we’re still unsure of our own path.
When we speak truth, offer support, and hold space for one another’s expansion.
We heal by unlearning scarcity—
and remembering there’s more than enough room for all of us to rise.
We heal the sister wound when we:
Speak kindly behind each other’s backs
Applaud another woman’s success with genuine joy
First, call your energy back to you.
Every piece you gave away in comparison, in competition, in fear.
Whisper to them: You’re safe now. Come home.
Speak the names of the women who hurt you.
Speak the names of the women you’ve hurt.
Whisper apologies into the flame.
Whisper forgiveness into the dark.
My softness is not weakness. My strength is not a threat. I hold both with grace.
I am a sister. A mirror. A keeper of sacred space. I rise in love, not fear.
Every time I uplift another woman, I heal the wound within myself.
I am the witch who heals with her voice, her vision, and her willingness to remember.
I forgive myself for believing I had to fight for love, space, or attention.
I am rewriting the story: sisters don’t betray—they uplift, witness, and protect.
When I witness another woman’s beauty, brilliance, or becoming—I say yes, yes, yes.
This is witchcraft.
This is reclamation.
This is how we come back to each other.
One brave, messy, magical woman at a time.
Interested in booking a withcy shoot with me?
Witchy sessions - my favorite! We shoot for 90 minutes, maybe a little longer. In Sedona we start out in the sunshine, so we focus more on a “light” witch” look. Lighter colors, nature props, movement. I guide and pose you. Choose a flowy dress to create movement and emotion. Make sure you wear colors that go with the landscape. Ivory, Antique Pink, a deep yellow, teal, blue, and black. I love to end in black but we can shoot black any of the time.
My sessions are $1300. I bring props and guide you the entire time. I have some dresses, we can talk. I have a few capes:) Bring anything meaningful that you can pack in (this location is a 25 minute short hike and it’s my favorite)
I love shooting barefoot - bring some flip flops so you can walk and then kick them off. We change out in nature:) This location is super private.
I take a $200 deposit to hold the date. The rest is due the day we shoot. You can pay more of a deposit if you want to break up the price a little.
You will see 20 or so sneak peeks from our shoot the next day (usually unless I am leaving town) and my turn around time is 5-8 weeks.
