Her Sanctuary Her Sanctuary is an in-person, sacred membership community, located in SE Portland, designed to connect you with yourself and other powerful women.

We offer a safe place to land, to deepen into sacred feminine practice, ceremony, and sisterhood.

What if you gave yourself permission to simply feel before deciding? 🤍

Sometimes one gathering is enough to feel a little spark of connection. But sometimes we need more time. Time to return, to recognize familiar faces, to settle into a space and begin feeling what it might be like to belong.

That's why we created Welcome Month.

Not as another commitment or something you have to figure out, but as a gentle place to land after your first experience with us.

A time to return. A time to root. A time to feel before deciding.

You'll be invited to attend three gatherings of your choice, plus receive a guest pass to bring someone you love along.

There's no pressure to join anything beyond this month. No expectations. Just an open door and an invitation to listen to your own inner yes or no, in your own time.

If it feels nourishing to stay a little longer, we'd love to have you.

And if it doesn't, that's okay too.

You are always welcome here.

In 2027, our Temple is growing!

As we look toward the new year, a beautiful new vision is taking shape for our Her Sanctuary community, and I can’t wait to share all the details with you!

Stay tuned, because it’s going to be really good.

More opportunities to gather. More ways to connect. More beauty, depth, and magic.

And as we dream into this next chapter, we’re excited to welcome more voices and new gifts into our Temple!

We’re hoping to connect with…

a seasoned astrologer who loves weaving the wisdom of the stars into community.

And a Sacred Feminine elder, teacher, or circle facilitator who brings many years of experience, lived wisdom, spiritual maturity, warmth, reverence for the sacred, and a deep gift for holding space.

We’re envisioning women who feel genuinely inspired by the heart and mission of Her Sanctuary, who have the time and desire to become a consistent, devoted presence within our growing Temple community.

Women who feel called not simply to lead a gathering, but to help tend something sacred.

Do you know someone wonderful?

We’d love your recommendations! Tag her below, send us a DM, or share this post with someone who might feel called. 🤍

With love,
Michelle

Aometimes the question isn’t whether you need community. It’s what kind of support is calling you right now.

Maybe you’re longing for connection, friendship, and a place where you can walk through the doors and feel like you belong.

Or maybe you feel the pull to go deeper. To listen more closely to your inner knowing, explore your Sacred Feminine wisdom, and devote time to who you are becoming.

At Her Sanctuary, there is space for both.

The Sacred Social Club is a place to belong. The Mystery School is a place to go deeper.

One path isn’t better than the other. You get to decide what you need in this season.

So, what are you craving right now: A. Connection + Belonging or B. Depth + Transformation? 🤍

Explore both paths through the link in bio.

Because now is the time.
To no longer stay silent.
To speak our voice.
To take up space.
To no longer shrink.
To sing our song.
To protect the children.
To protect women.
To lead as sacred feminine beings.
To rewrite the story.
To no longer negotiate our truth.
To rise as the women we truly are.
Vote.
Because we are the weavers.
We are the woven ones.
We are the dreamers.
We are the dream.
And now is our time.

November at Her Sanctuary.

A new month, another invitation to slow down, gather, and reconnect.

Some gatherings are open to all, while others are special spaces for our Sacred Social Club members.

Come as you are. Find what nourishes you. Let yourself be held in community.

On Sunday we celebrated the first birthday of Her Sanctuary.

It was a stunning morning of ceremony, connection, beauty, and remembrance.

We celebrated HER. Who is She? She is the calling in your heart to lead a different life. To break ancient patterns and finally live as your fully embodied true self. She is the heart beat and drum beat that keeps calling you forward into more.

She is the sway of your hips, your uninhibited laugh, the wildness in your heart, and the deepest callings that you can’t ignore.

She is waking up. She is no longer willing and able to stay quiet. She is your true voice, your soul song, your medicine, your wisdom, your intuition, and your deepest knowing.

She is not here to be abandoned or ignored.

Together, we remember HER.

This is what we truly do at Her Sanctuary.

Thank you to everyone who came out and celebrated. In person community is everything right now.

Thank you to Francine_Olivia 🪬 and Janessa for being my left and right hands.

Thank you Angela Carey and .brookhouse and Odessa Schuler-Trujillo for hearth tending.

Thank you Chelsea Donoho ☾ Photographer for these stunning photos.

Thank you thank you thank you. 🙏

More to come.

xx,
Michelle

Twenty years ago, I made a promise to myself.

I was 26, becoming a mother for the first time while simultaneously losing my own mother to breast cancer.

My life changed almost overnight.

I had dreams, ambitions, and a vision for the woman I wanted to become. And suddenly, I was learning to mother two babies, grieve my own mother, and navigate a life I hadn't imagined.

In the midst of it all, I kept returning to one thought.

46. 46. 46.

When I'm 46, I'll come back to her. To the woman I was before motherhood. To the dreams I had set aside. To the parts of myself I promised I wouldn't forget.

And now, here I am. 46 years old, standing at another threshold.

My children have left home. My marriage has ended. And I'm realizing something I couldn't have understood twenty years ago.

There is no going back.

Instead, I'm learning to honor all the women I've been. Everything they've carried, surrendered, loved, and lost.

And to make space for the woman I'm still becoming.

I know I'm not alone in this.

So many of us find ourselves standing at thresholds. Navigating endings and beginnings, changing identities, relationships, and seasons of life.

This is the deeper work we do at Her Sanctuary.

We honor what has been, grieve what has ended, and create space to listen for what is calling us forward. Together.

It's the heart of Her Sanctuary Mystery School, where women walk these passages with intention, exploring the wisdom of the Sacred Feminine through ceremony, sisterhood, and sacred practice.

In the new year, we'll begin two journeys within the Mystery School: The Practice and Priestess Path. More on those soon.

Twenty years ago, I promised myself I would come back for her.

What I didn't know was that she would be the one to lead me here.

With love,
Michelle 🤍

P.S. Next Sunday, October 25, we're celebrating Her Sanctuary's first birthday at Sanctuary Sunday! We have just 11 spaces remaining, and I'd love to celebrate with you. ✨ Link in bio to join us.

A little love from our community 🤍

As we celebrate our birthday month, we're reflecting on the beautiful connections, sacred moments, and sisterhood we've created together.

These words remind us why Her Sanctuary exists.

Here's to another year of gathering, growing, and belonging.
