Testimonials

Jennifer Simpson:

Walking the ancient Magdalene path through sacred lands, waters, and caves of Southern France was a profound journey of remembrance and awakening. The holy stillness of these mystical sites - from mountain sanctuaries to hidden grottos - created a powerful container for deep inner work and spiritual revelation.

Sharing this pilgrimage with a circle of soul-sisters added profound depth to the experience, as we held space for each other's unfolding while honoring both collective wisdom and individual paths.

The skilled guidance seamlessly wove together ceremony, silence, and sacred practice, allowing each woman to access her own direct knowing while being supported by the strength of sisterhood. This journey offered not just historical insights into Mary Magdalene's legacy, but a living transmission of her teachings through the land itself.

What emerged was a transformative integration of ancient wisdom with contemporary understanding, helping to illuminate personal purpose and deepen devotion to Love's calling.

Diana Lynn:

I participated in the MM Path this past September, choosing this opportunity to empower myself to heal, engage more deeply with my spirit, and open my heart. I knew that fully committing would be both a challenge and the best chance to achieve these intentions.

I’m so blessed to say that I received everything I needed—and far more.

I released deep past grief and truly felt the joy of my heart opening. I am grateful for the women who stood by me when I couldn’t stand on my own, supporting me when I felt like giving up. Everything I learned about myself, and all that I received from the group, has elevated my life experience.

I deeply appreciate the creators of this path for holding a safe space where individuals can fully show up, transforming their personal lives and the world around them.

Erin Linder:

I was transformed by the experience of being in community with women from all over the world who long to remember and reconnect with the divine feminine energy embodied within the land, the waters, and each of our own bodies through following the path of Mary Magdalene. So much awakened and was activated within me by being present in the forests we walked, the mountains we climbed, the caves we sat in, and the waters we immersed ourselves in—to truly ground, feel, and receive the energy of these sacred places.

Each rose anointing and ceremony was beautiful, moving, and healing—another invocation to receive the Divine. The special guests further enriched the experience. At Rennes-le-Château, the light-code activation was very powerful for me to receive and witness. I loved the afternoon at Les Contes, sitting with Alethea Sofia, being in the garden and the sacred spring waters, which felt baptismal.

Through the 10 days of being with wise, heart-centered women on the land, I (re)discovered a lot about myself, remembered deeper truths, and released and reclaimed parts of myself.

Carmen Lucero:

The land and the sacred places we visited spoke their own ancient language, but being held in a sister circle made everything even more magical. That collective presence, that feminine strength and softness—I'll carry it with me.

Since returning home, I feel I’ve come back not from a place of ego or striving, but from a deep sense of harmony.There’s a new coherence within me—a dance between the masculine and feminine—and it’s bringing me such peace.I have gratitude beyond words. Thank you for everything.
