Rites Weaver & Threshold Guide
Founder, Return to Her
I birthed Return to Her out of an ache I could not ignore. A call to return to intuition, land, and lineage. We offer embodied rituals, guided reflections, and wilderness practice that honor grief, reclaim voice, and re-member what your body already knows. This is not therapy. This is reclamation: ritual, reflection, and remaration. We move by rites, story, and the steady work of coming home to ourselves.
About a year ago I found myself sitting on the floor of my closet, knees to my chest, trying to make sense of how quickly everything I had poured myself into was unraveling. I felt gutted. As if my voice, my vision, even my worth had been set aside.
Not long after, I went to a women’s retreat. I was supposed to be there to support others, but truthfully I was hanging on by a thread. I wasn’t even fully present with the group; I kept turning back to a quiet conversation that was happening elsewhere. The beginnings of the reflection work you may be stepping into now.
Something shifted that weekend.
Not in a thunderclap, but in a quiet resolve.
I realized I could build something of my own. Something no one could take away.
A place for women (and all who feel called to this work) to come in from the margins, sit by the fire, and start to find their way back to themselves.
That seed of resolve is what grew into Return to Her.
If you’re reading this, maybe you’re in your own season of loss, or questioning, or looking for a spark.
I want you to know: you’re welcome here. You don’t have to have it all figured out. Just begin. Take the first reflection when you’re ready and let it meet you where you are.
I believe in the quiet power of beginnings. And in your ability to find your own flame again.
With care,
Sher
Sher (she/her/siya) is a veteran, Rite of Return wilderness guide, and ritual technologist devoted to helping anyone who identifies as a woman, femme, or seeks to reclaim their wild sovereignty. Drawing from years of leading rites‑of‑passage retreats with veterans, walking alongside people through grief, and navigating her own initiations,she creates reflective containers for those seeking embodied return, where the unseen can be witnessed, and the silenced parts of a person’s story can be honored.
Her work weaves deep listening, mirroring for empowerment, and earth‑based practices into experiences that feel at once ancient and fiercely contemporary. Sher believes in rematriation, in breaking inherited cycles of harm, and in the quiet power of being fully present with another as they cross a threshold.
Rooted in land-led practice and ancestral lineage, Sher teaches deep ecology of self and ceremony that honors rematriation and radical care. Whether around a fire in the wilderness or through one‑on‑one sessions, her presence is both fierce and tender — inviting you to be claimed by your own life without being caged by it.
