Hello!
I'm Vauda
"My burning passion for bringing community together to love, share, heal, teach, and care for one another is what inspires and motivates me."
My Story. . .
Hey there! I'm all about envisioning a world where people thrive together in a strong, vibrant spiritual community—like family. A place where people of all backgrounds, beliefs, and walks of life come together in perfect harmony.
​
My journey into personal healing and enlightenment started back in 2004 when I encountered the Sweet Medicine Sundance Path, a shamanic tradition that inspires spiritual evolution. Today, I'm a certified teacher and ceremonial leader on this path, crafting my own unique style of experiential teaching and transformation facilitation since 2015.
​
I'm a firm believer in holistic, immersive experiences that work like magic to encode spiritual wisdom that empowers people in all aspects of life. I've seen firsthand how powerful this approach can be in overcoming large obstacles and deep wounding—I've been there myself. Like the phoenix rising, I have risen above my story and am happily living my sacred purpose today, I'm proof that healing and transformation is possible.  
​
Beyond my spiritual journey, I wear many hats—I'm a mother, an executive, a martial artist, a cellist, a ceremonial drummer, a singer, a gardener... and loving every minute of it! I bring all of who I am into every aspect of my life and love empowering others to bring their full shining into all arenas to create success and happiness.
​
Currently, I'm at the helm of Warrior Spirit Lodge—a spiritual community rooted in the Sweet Medicine path—and I'm also nurturing the Desert Moon Sisterhood Circle, a sacred space for women to connect and grow.
