SoulFire Sisters is a monthly, 90-minute gathering for women devoted to attuning with source, nurturing an elevated growth mindset, and living the qualities of the balanced divine feminine. Each meeting begins with a modified PeppSTART practice that supports grounding and alignment while opening the heart, then flows into meaningful connection, reflection, and experiential practices that help participants feel seen and heard within themselves and in a shared sisterhood space. It offers room for soulful growth, genuine laughter, and a high frequency approach to everyday life. Participants may wish to bring a journal, a small snack, water, and an open heart. Pepper co-founded and owns Soul Journey Relaxation Retreats and created Soul Alignment Sessions, experiences designed to guide people into The Current so awakening becomes an ongoing way of living rather than a brief moment. With compassion, intuition, and a nurturing presence, she supports a return to natural alignment in body, mind, and soul. Through Soul Alignment Sessions and spiritual mentorship, she walks with people who are awakening to their true nature and ready to live with clarity, flow, and deep connection. Her approach weaves sacred tradition with practical application, drawing on ancient paths, contemporary consciousness teachings, and embodied energy practices to offer grounded, heart centered guidance. She invites transformation from the inside out, encouraging people to live their truth, move with flow, and feel aligned in daily life. At heart she serves as a Soul Alignment Guide, devoted to helping others live consciously in The Current, treating truth, presence, and expansion not as endpoints but as a way of being. This gathering is free with optional love donations and is open to the community.

Every dollar in SNAP benefits is matched with a dollar in Fresh Access Bucks, with no cap at this time. For example, a $25 EBT transaction provides $25 in orange SNAP tokens plus $25 in green FAB tokens, giving $50 to use on fresh, local food. Tokens do not expire.

Class 2 of the Munay Ki shamanic apprenticeship welcomes participants who are ready to step into the next stage of this path. If the first session was missed, it is recommended to watch the Class 1 and Bands of Power video beforehand, then continue in person with the second class. The Munay Ki offers nine initiatory rites, presented as energetic transmissions intended to mend deep-rooted wounds and reshape the Luminous Energy Field, encouraging a life that ages with grace and embraces new possibilities. Participants explore experiences such as receiving angelic guidance, strengthening protective light, releasing emotional burdens, awakening the inner healer, reclaiming personal power, deepening communication with spirit, walking the initiatory journey of a shaman and a person of medicine, and unfolding innate spiritual gifts. This journey welcomes both newcomers and seasoned practitioners, supporting a clearer connection to one’s divinity and a more healed, authentic expression of self. The series consists of nine classes, and attendance at all sessions is required to receive all nine rites. For this class, wear black clothing and bring a journal with a pen, a bottle of water, and a snack if needed. A black shawl is optional. Classes run on an ongoing basis, and if registration is closed or a session is missed, other groups are available for make-up opportunities. Additional free community offerings include moon ceremonies, men’s and women’s groups, journey circles, and a children’s Munay Ki, and introductory materials about Munay Ki and the Chacana Spiritual Center are available. Those who feel called can continue by beginning the Mesa, a shamanic practitioner apprenticeship focused on building a sacred medicine bundle, working in the unseen, transforming personal shadow, and serving as a channel for transformative energy.

Her background includes certifications in Reiki and vibrational energy healing, intuitive and clairvoyant abilities, speaking engagements, and client work in shamanic healing as well as life and business coaching with the medicine wheel.
