Bernadine's STORY
Offering support, guidance and coaching. Mentoring and witnessing the power and potency of women of all ages for over 25 years.
Originally from San Jose, California, Santa Cruz County has been my home since 1994. Within this unique community, I have given birth at home twice, became a certified massage therapist and ontological coach, founded a rite of passage program for teen aged girls, and transformed my own experience as a single mom for over ten years, from surviving to thriving in the face of social stigmas and historic judgment. I develop online programs and host circles and retreats for women in celebration, education and through life changing transitions. Through my own personal growth, I visualized and manifested my husband, an incredible man dedicated to his children and the work he is deeply passionate about. We focus daily on how to build and maintain a healthy relationship and life together, with love at the root of our connection and joy fueling our larger visions. I recently became a grandmother while my own two grown children forge lives of their own. I hold my healing arts practice and coaching sessions at The Healthy Dragon off of River St. in Santa Cruz, Ca.
My inspiration became more clear...
Over the years, I discovered that when women connect to themselves and each other, we get grounded and more clear about life priorities and how to implement them regardless of the circumstances. We can unearth wisdom that gives us deep satisfaction to help us Remember Who We Are. We can then release the fears that tend to drive us in challenging times - fears for our children and for the future we feel victimized by because it feels so unknown.
I am very aware that when women gain the courage to make choices that inspire joy in their everyday lives, something miraculous begins to emerge.
This breakthrough is what invented: Women Who Are Up To Something.
