About the creator
Hi, i’m hollie wildëthorn, a psychotherapist who has spent decades working at the intersections of women’s events, trauma-aware practice, psychotherapy, education and community facilitation.
Alongside my clinical work, i’ve facilitated thousands of Women attending Circles, Gather-ins, Retreats and long-form group programs, mentored facilitators and event organisers and sat at many tables where harm, burnout and confusion were named after the fact.
What i see most often is not a lack of care or devotion, but a lack of training in facilitation itself.
Many women feel called to this work without ever being taught how to hold it responsibly.
This booklet exists because too many women are doing this work without being invited to stop and look at it properly. It’s a thinking tool. A place to see what you’re offering, and what it actually asks of you.
What women say…
hollie’s insights were on the mark, the tools I took from this work helped me manifest numerous goals I never thought would become real. I can honestly say I’m a totally different woman with a different outlook to who I was a year ago.

Hollie’s unique modality is ethical, inclusive and life changing. She is scrupulously values based. As I learn to lead others in this work I want to know I will be holding space in the best way to firstly not do harm, then secondly, best walk along side people in their own path of transformation. I know with hollie’s offerings I get this. Hard recommend. 🥰.”
~ Julia
hollie taught me a lot of awareness and confirmation. She’s managed to explain something really complex in a really simple way. I’ve thought of these things before but I haven’t been able to piece it together so this work has brought a different dimension to my thinking.

📷 A note on imagery: The photographs on this page were created during a planned branding shoot with Julia Meon Photography. We are committed to vital representation, while also honouring the privacy and protection of our real ceremonial spaces. These moments are intentionally posed to reflect the feeling and texture of Self Crafting work, without intruding on the sacredness of live circles. Deep thanks to the wildflower women who showed up and lent their sparkle to this epic creation day.
