Private Spiritual Direction
A Five-Month Apprenticeship in Threshold Work
Wisdom of the Four Directions
Something brought
you here today…
Almost all of us have an intuition that we are living on the edge of a turning point in human history. We sense a threshold, a line beyond which we have crossed, and there is an unspoken fear that we might not like what we see, but there is also a knowing that we are being invited to discover new awarenesses; personal resources and knowledge previously forgotten by us.
Perhaps you’ve been moved by the state of the global environment and the uncertainty in the news, and you’re wondering what kind of legacy we’re going to leave the next generation.
If you're like me, you have probably wondered what it's going to take for humanity to finally wake up to the vast and beautiful miracle that is life on earth.
What would it be like to live in a world where we cannot help but express ourselves in healthy, sustainable, peaceful and prosperous careers, relationships, communities, and even countries?
Life is not random, all your experiences are meaningful — even your painful experiences are a call to the Soul’s Path…
As part of our human journey, we will each experience numerous challenging cycles in life. We are here to learn something about ourselves as spiritual beings having a human experience. Thus, one is always about to enter or is in the process of a transformative cycle in some area of our life as part of the path of our unique experience.
While such cycles are unavoidable and not necessarily a bad thing — the place from which you engage these cycles often determines how difficult it becomes, how long it lasts, and whether you transform the darkness of confusion and pain into the light of new potential and life.
Initiation experiences are deeply spiritual. They have been a part of the human journey for thousands of years. The initiation experience is a very specific journey meant to challenge you to discover the unknown resources within you.
Extreme conditions are either chosen (as in going on a challenging Vision Quest), or brought upon you through unforeseen life events such as illness, accidents, death, divorce, loss or any other extraordinary life circumstance that starts a person on this initiatory journey.
Most people do not even recognize that they having an initiatory experience, as it is a spiritual journey hidden within the pain and chaos of ordinary life.
Initiation experiences have a sequence and natural progression to them. For one to bring their unique gift or medicine to the world they must go through an initiatory experience of losing themselves and finding themselves again, before they can embody their authentic wisdom.
With most injuries or wounds, we can seek help, including our emotional and mental wounds. The challenge of this wound is to learn that you are your own healer.
You must confront your own pain or be consumed by it. You can only come to believe in the power of your inner guidance — and your higher self — by learning to be in relationship with the whole of life around you. Then you can experience this connection with respect and reverence, and you will come to understand how to source your own divine wisdom.
Every journey transforms the initiate in some profound way. Each initiation has its own purpose, its own teaching, its own medicine.
The Wisdom of the Four Directions
The way I see it, most of our major problems, social and environmental, can be solved if enough people shift to a new way of being — and come into harmony with every living thing on planet earth, and the earth itself.
The Wisdom of the Four Directions explains our relationship to the external world, but also explains how to live in the world.
You can learn to contribute and serve in your own way, act with courage and love — and realize you are not alone.
The Wisdom of the Four Directions is a spherical map rather than a linear path — acknowledging that life unfolds through cycles, contraction and expansion, death and renewal.
The Four Directions become an internal compass— a way of walking. A way of locating yourself, a way of recognizing when something is shifting, a way of understanding why certain seasons demand discipline while others demand surrender.
The Wisdom of the Four Directions offers a framework for understanding where you are at within a cycle of transformation.

Wisdom of the Four Directions Teachings
The Four Directions is a complete and unparalleled framework for personal inquiry and growth as well as healing practices that have been shared for thousands of years between mentor and student.
Coming into your own authentic power helps us to compassion over anger; connection over isolation; inspiration over fear and empowers us to play a bigger role in the healing of ourselves and our natural environment.
When we learn to shift at the internal level, transmuting imprints from our past, the external world begins to feel different and opportunities arise that you were unable to see before. Earth based practices help us to show up differently, make positive contributions to our families and communities, and avoid the abuses of power that plague our times.
The Nature of Initiatory Work
Initiatory cycles often arrive through:
Loss
Illness
Vocational change
Relationship endings
Spiritual awakening
Unexpected life disruption
Most people experience these as difficult, disrupting, and confusing. When we are able to identify, label, and locate ourselves within these processes, they can become the basis of a new foundation for personal awareness, understanding, and meaning in our lives.
Energy medicine practices are not only concerned with the health of the individual, but also with the health of the world. This includes all people, plants, animals and all of life. As we begin to feel more connection within our own body we help to heal the planet by embodying this connected energy and live in reciprocity with the nature of life all around us.

Coming into your own personal power helps us choose inspiration over fear; compassion over anger; connection over isolation; and empowers us to play a bigger role in the healing of ourselves, others, and our environment.
When we learn to shift at the subconscious level, transmuting imprints from the past, our external world begins to look different and opportunities arise that you were unable to see before. The practices of self-love and worthiness help us show up, make positive contributions to our families, and communities, and avoid the abuses of power that plague our times.

About Chloë
I have spent over a decade studying under two indigenous medicine people, and have been trained in ceremonial practices from two living traditional medicine paths, one in North America and one in South America. I have a Master’s in Indigenous Studies from the Arctic University of Norway, and I am a certified Native American Healing Arts Practitioner.
The processes and tools I teach are founded in practical life experience, shamanic cosmology, earth-based methodologies, as well as trauma and dissociation training, including work with traumatic memory and PTSD, as well as mindfulness meditation instructor training.
My work has been formed over fifteen years of direct engagement with initiatory processes, both personally and in guiding others.
My path has taken me through extended periods of solitude in nature, long-term apprenticeship with Indigenous healers in Peru, and years of study within the Arctic landscape of Northern Norway, where I researched the relationship between landscape, perception, and human transformation.
This work has developed through intentional participation with cycles of loss, reorientation, and renewal—both in my own life and in those I have accompanied.
My approach integrates earth-based methodology, developmental psychology, and trauma-informed awareness into a form of spiritual direction that is grounded and attuned to the realities of lived experience.
Program FAQs
-
This is not a program built around a fixed method or outcome.
It is a sustained, one-on-one process of working with what is actually unfolding in your life—over time.
The depth of the work comes from the continuity of attention.
From staying with a process long enough for something real to shift—not only in understanding, but in how you relate to yourself and your life.
The Four Directions provide a framework for orientation, but the work itself is shaped by your lived experience.
-
This apprenticeship is for those who recognize that they are in a meaningful period of transition, and who are willing to engage that process with depth and consistency.
It is not defined by a particular goal, but by a readiness to meet what is already present.
-
Much of what is offered in personal development focuses on insight, perspective, or temporary relief.
This work is oriented toward something slower and more integrated.
Rather than working only at the level of understanding, we work with how experience is processed, integrated, and lived—over time.
The aim is to develop the capacity to move through difficulty it in a different way.
-
This is a private apprenticeship.
The work is shaped around your specific life circumstances, history, and current process—rather than a generalized structure.
There is space to move at the pace required, to remain with what is important, and to allow deeper layers to emerge over time.
If you would like to be considered for the upcoming Wisdom of the Four Directions program, please submit an application.
The teachings of the Four Directions focus on our connection with nature and the nature of our true selves.

“The profound and permanent shifts that I have experienced with this work are truly amazing and absolutely life transforming. I am stronger, more confident, and clear about who I am and my purpose in life. ”
A personal message from Chloë…
True guides must be able to face the most difficult of human experience and the darkest energies when working with clients. For this reason, the training is extremely hard and one must pass many tests.
I understand at a deep and profound level.... that we must do the work, become a clear conduit, and become the person who can hold the vision, in order to have the strength and courage to act on our inner guidance to bring the dream into reality.
My work as a spiritual guide is committed to rekindling each individual’s awareness of their personal connection to the natural world around them and their reason for being alive in the world at this time.
Many have asked, what makes this different from any other program?
This is not a program at all, as you walk the Four Directions you will receive wisdom that will serve you in being a whole, vital, and empowered human being for the rest of your life. This wisdom will serve you no matter what path you choose.
You will learn to process challenging circumstances completely differently and learn to manifest from a place of co-creation.
The work that I do with my clients is different than most because the outcome is that the individual has connected with their own personal source, has learned to source their internal guidance & understands their unique compass points in order to direct their progress on their individual life path.
Many clients report positive results almost instantly. I don’t ask for this type of accolade, but I’m happy to know that receiving instant clarity and relief is possible for people who are suffering with confusion, frustration, and high anxiety.
I work in correlation with the physical and mental health programs that my clients are currently using. I’m not against medication, especially when you are in such a dark place that you can’t see your way out of it, however, having been there myself, I do know that thriving without medication is possible.
I believe for one to be a guide and teacher, we must have faced hardships and found the courage to transform our pain into wisdom for ourselves and for others. It is this kind of one on one support with a Spiritual Guide that truly makes a difference in being transformed by the processes and ideas versus surface learning at the level of the mind.
When I first began exploring earth based cosmology as a way to understand my own challenges in life, I could not fathom how this way of interacting with the natural world would become so natural to me, almost instinctual, as if it was a part of my true essence.
I realize that this is not an antiquated or sentimental way of viewing and experiencing the world. But a very real, very alive, highly evolved and intensely present, awake, and aware intelligence that is actively communicating with all of us in our modern world.
In fact, trying to communicate with us, in order to engage in collaborative solutions to our twenty-first-century issues of pollution, illness, disease, violence and war, and other plagues of humanity in our present-day circumstances.
I believe that by learning to heal ourselves and regain our personal power through connection to the living natural world, we may be able to solve the problems that we humans have created in our environment and help to bring back harmony on the planet.
It is my hope to give you as much of what I have learned along this path as possible, in a way that speaks to your heart, and gives you a framework that is helpful in gleaning understanding from your own experiences.
I will give you practical methods, tools, and support that create real life context and serve you in perceiving the meaning of your own experiences as you walk your path.
