the invitation:
Deep conversations, ritual, stories, & experiences to recover instinct & embody aliveness
An experience for women coming into their own:
We are all filled with a longing for the wild. There are few culturally sanctioned antidotes for this yearning. We were taught to feel shame for such a desire. We grew our hair long and used it to hide our feelings. But the shadow of Wild Woman still lurks behind us during our days and in our nights. No matter where we are, the shadow that trots behind us is definitely four-footed.
Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Women Who Run With the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype
Sometimes, we feel lost… as if we don’t know what we’re doing with our lives.
Sometimes, we forget the connection that is always there, patiently waiting for our attention.
Sometimes, we lose the thread of how to come back to ourselves.
Sometimes, we need the ancient voices of stories and community to weave us back into life.

Let me answer this…
Reading the book on your own is inspiring. This may be enough for you.
However, journeying with the book in a group is deeply transformative. The group supports new insights, new felt experiences, & new ways of being.
In this way, we heal.
There is something so precious that happens when another strings together the perfect insightful share. It can move you. It brings new hope & connection.
And, to be the person who touches another so deeply leaves us feeling accepted, worthy, appreciated, truly seen…
We can undo the silos we’ve built around ourselves.
You can have a deeper transformation with these stories in a group journey.
Being seen, felt, & heard in group work is immensely powerful & healing.
Transformation doesn’t need to be a lonely path!

More sweet words from a past participant…
The doors to the world of the wild Self are few but precious. If you have a deep scar, that is a door, if you have an old, old story, that is a door. If you love the sky and the water so much you almost cannot bear it, that is a door. If you yearn for a deeper life, a full life, a sane life, that is a door.

About Your Guide
Andra Dediu is a transformational guide for groups and one-on-one.
She is fully devoted to her own path and with being in service with integrity. She is in no way a master and does not take power from you.
She just wants to walk with you for a while on this mysterious journey.
Andra carries a briefcase of trainings from experiential therapy to mindfulness & yoga to sound healing to NLP to even channeling – she’s dabbled lots to arrive at her own authentic offerings. She is currently undergoing a Master’s in Consciousness Studies and Transpersonal Psychology, alongside a second degree in Transpersonal Counselling to more fully support her continuing process of integration & embodiment.
She deeply knows that all resides within her, just as all resides within you. It is time to share our knowings with each other from a place of love and abundance.

“Andra is mindful, intuitive, and passionate. She’s coached me through some very difficult times. Her coaching has helped me tap into my higher consciousness, and be more mindful. I’ve been able to recognize unhealthy patterns and transform my linear thinking into a more holistic thinking style that allows growth. After every session I feel revived and most importantly closer to my authentic self! Highly recommend!”
Mar, Thailand
“Andra came to my life as the magical being that she is, in the perfect timing, bringing a sense of community, meaning and sacred space to the crazy Bangkok. I needed to commute for 2 hours to get to her kundalini dance class every week and I didn’t miss any session (nobody in the group did) in the 7 weeks. I loved how she hold the space for us to go deep. She is profoundly committed to her spiritual growth and you can feel that in anything she does. I would totally recommend working with her!!!!”
Nicola, Canada
“I was hoping to expand my family. I had two pregnancies that were not viable and I was pregnant with my third pregnancy. This was an anxious time for me. … Andra was there to listen to my fears, encourage me to stay present and to believe in the power of my body. Andra is able to listen without judgement, asks before offering advice, understands how the body and the mind are interconnected, is open about her own struggles and is someone who brings a calm and caring nature to those she meets. When I describe her to people who haven’t met her, I say she is my ‘wise woman’ friend. I recently gave birth to my second child, Andra helped connect me with a variety of doulas… For those that are seeking her services, you will be in caring but honest hands.”
