An in-person night of nervous-system softening, honest reflection, and real connection.

Most people aren’t craving “more friends.” They’re craving the kind of connection that happens when you don’t have to perform.

And in my experience, that kind of connection doesn’t start with finding the perfect people…

It starts with meeting yourself more truthfully. Because when you’re willing to go to depth with your inner world, your desires, your grief, your tenderness, your anger, your longing, you stop asking relationships to be safe by staying shallow.

You become someone who can hold real intimacy and depth. With yourself first. And then with others.

Ripple is my invitation into that practice.

This is a facilitated cacao + oracle gathering where we slow down on purpose, listen to what’s actually moving inside you, and then practice connecting from that place, rather than from your social and performative self.

What We’ll Do:

Part 1: Cacao + Guided Inner Reflection

We’ll open with cacao and a guided somatic drop-in to help you settle, soften, and come back into your body. You’ll be led through reflection prompts that illuminate your current inner landscape: what’s alive, what’s asking for attention, and what you’re ready to stop overriding.

Part 2: Illuminate Oracle Practice

You’ll pull from the Illuminate Mantra & Oracle Deck (with guidance) to receive a message that’s less about “answers” and more about remembering what you already know.

Part 3: Authentic Relating (the Ripple)

Then we practice bringing that truth into connection. You’ll be guided through a simple, structured relating practice designed to help you speak more honestly, listen more deeply, and feel what it’s like to be met without the mask.

This gathering is for you if you’re ready to:

• stop outsourcing your knowing and trust what your body has been trying to tell you

• feel more connected not by trying harder, but by being more real

• practice intimacy & depth in a way that feels grounded, kind, and human

• leave with a clearer sense of what you want, what you need, and what you’re available for in your relationships

Because when you know yourself more clearly, you naturally create cleaner, truer relationships that feel more alive. And that doesn’t just change your life, it changes the rooms you walk into. That’s the ripple.

About Lex:

Lex is an artist and somatic guide who helps sensitive, high-feeling humans build self-trust through the body so they can feel more alive, more expressed, and more connected to the world around them.

Her work centers on a simple truth: your difficult emotions aren’t a problem to fix, they’re information. When you learn how to be with them (instead of overriding them), they become the gateway to clarity, creativity, and inner steadiness.

Lex created the artwork for the Illuminate Mantra & Oracle Deck from her lived experience of what happens when you stop looking outward for permission and start listening inward instead. Her gatherings are designed to be both tender and real; space to reflect, space to move energy, and space to practice being seen.
