A Fire Was Lit…

My journey went through many incarnations over the years. At the center of it all, wellbeing, connection and creativity were always consistent anchors. I longed to share with others, and to bring together a community of folks yearning for more clarity, creativity and community.

In 2017, Intent Space, was born. Intent Space existed to support each other in transitioning to a more intentional, meaningful way of living. Through simple movement, meditation, self-care practices, inspired events, ritual and ceremony my hope was to cultivate experiences that supported a true sense of well-being and care; simply, sincerely and sustainably.

I’m ready! Where I am currently…

As I started envisioning how I would now show up, the idea of returning to school to complete my journey from several years ago—becoming a licensed therapist—began to emerge. Yet, as I weighed the lengthy path to licensure, compounded by the emergence of Covid and the urgent demand for more mental health professionals, I ultimately opted for a different direction.

After years of exploring a wide range of healing modalities, it was astrology that wove everything together. It was the missing piece—the language that gave context and coherence to all the tools and practices I had gathered along the way. What once felt like separate threads suddenly formed a tapestry.

Astrology was also a deeply personal homecoming. It was a part of me I had tucked away for years, unsure if there was space for it. But once I acknowledged it, something clicked—it felt like returning to a truth I had always known.

After nearly a decade of self-study, I took the leap into a rigorous professional training with astrologer Debra Silverman. What began as a personal passion soon became the bridge between the healing arts I loved and the work I now offer to others.

Within this container, you’ll find support and encouragement to embrace life’s complexities with grace, nurture the desires of your soul, and celebrate your unique gifts. I will also hold space for you to grow with kindness, honoring the areas where transformation is ready to unfold.

In these times, this work is more essential than ever-a practice of healing, connection, and renewal that the world deeply needs.

with love, Tania
