Hi Friends! I have a client who purchased a 2 for 1 ticket for my upcoming "Discover Your Compass" Sunday Series at my studio at Savage Mill and she is looking for someone to share her ticket with.

The cost INCLUDES ALL FOUR CLASSES - you get FOUR 2-hour classes for a total cost of $87.50 - this is an INCREDIBLE price. It equals about $22 a class.

I am providing all materials.

I understand that schedules are tough in the summer and everyone who is attending has a class they have to attend on a different day than listed. I'm happy to work with you if you have any conflicting dates.

You can read about the class series here - please message me if you are interested in splitting her 2:1 ticket with her.

I do have just a couple more spots remaining in the Wed evening and the Sunday afternoon series. If you want to grab your own ticket, the Eventbrite link is also provided here (you can also find the info for the Wed evening classes here):

What is it all about? My entire business is built around empowering women to walk their journey connected back to themselves and to the ones they love and their larger community. This class series helps you identify and connect with your instinct AND your intuition through art, writing, individual and class energetic sensing. Read more at the link :)

Four-Part Intuition Journey - price includes all four classes.

I am really honored to share that I was featured in Voyager Magazine under their Inspiration Stories section for my work helping women walk a path of healing.

Someone nominated me and the magazine reached out to interview me.

Starting my business, Once Upon A Connection, has been one of the most fulfilling professional accomplishments of my life - I know every story of every woman who crosses the threshold of my studio, which has become a sanctuary place to "set down what is not yours to carry inside".

The true sign of success would be a world with ZERO NEED for healing services - but that is not life. We all experience paths that form us, and some of those paths bury themselves into our nervous systems and cause real impact on how we navigate each day - whether that is as parents, professionally, as friends, as sisters, daughters, as partners.

We also deserve a chance to heal in a way that speaks to each of us - that speaks to our nervous system, that gives us tools to get to know ourselves again. I am honored to be part of that journey.

I hope you enjoy the article and please reach out if you would like to learn more about what I do at my studio that may resonate with you. Also, if you are not local, I can see you via televisit or help you locate somatic wellness providers in your area. Somatic Wellness is often eligible for HSA/FSA payment.

Today we’d like to introduce you to Shannon Marsh. Hi Shannon, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.I did not set out to build a wellness practice. I set out to survive my own life, and then I made it beautiful.I walked through […...

I had the MOST INCREDIBLE photoshoot today with Atomic Cheesecake Studios. Stacey has such a beautiful talent. I have been admiring her work from afar and when I saw her Romantic Garden set, I knew this would be my 50th birthday present to myself.

I got to see all of the photos today and even got one fully edited image to share out. The rest will be ready in the coming weeks. They ae spectacular.

I'm also super obsessed with all of the meaning behind this shoot - it is women supporting women in business around the world.

I designed a gown to showcase as an example of what a little imagination could dream up for women wanting custom fantasy gowns from my studio...I sent my sketches to women with unmatchable talent who run Dress Art Mystery in the Ukraine - they brought it to life.

The dress travelled to Maryland and the artistry of Stacey with Atomic Cheesecake Studios showcased it in a beautiful garden scene today.

Amazing collaboration.

I'm looking forward to making someone else's gown story come to life.
