Sadie's Apothecary the Healing Space

 

Talk about dreams come true!

Are you old enough to remember Starting Over House? It starred Iyanla Vanzant and a mental health professional named Rhonda. I started watchin in 2003, I was 20 year old stay at home mom who was trying to settle into new territory. I was fascinated by how the ease, layered support, and change of scenery seemed to make room for these women to completely change their lives. I thought to myself I would love to be a part of a healing space like that, but had no experience that would point to that path.

Well fast forward 20 years of self healing, wellness education, and travel, my dream is finally coming true!

In 2023/4, I was fortunate enough to spend 2 months on a beautiful property in Johannesburg while healing from an injury and sitting with being an empty nester. The land became a personal utopia where I enjoyed dancing in the library, hours listening to rain in the dome room, frolicking in the garden, and sun kissed days in the pool. I knew immediately that I wanted to surrender to offering healing work there and bring over loved ones to experience the vibes. In 2024/5, I came back for 6 months and brought friends, they instantly felt the magic of the space too.

 As a testament to obedience and alignment I am now the owner of this land.

Gratitude to my spirit guides, family, and community for their support this far, now my energy is shifting to fundraising to ensure we can address minor repairs, pay off the house, and start programming. Please, consider making a donation to ensure we can get to the work of sharing the medicine without having to worry about our financial security.

Thank you for your time, consideration, and coins!!
