Learning to tend the fire and carry it for others.

You have walked the earth. You have learned to listen, to offer, to grieve, to read the signs. Now comes the harder question: what do you do with what you have been given?

The FireKeeper year is where the path shifts from personal practice to service. From receiving to offering. From walking to tending. You will learn what it means to hold a fire for others, and what 
it costs the one who holds it.

This is a twelve-month advanced training for students who have completed EarthWalker (or who bring equivalent foundational experience confirmed through application). It covers advanced shamanic healing, Shamanic Reiki certification, ceremony leadership, plant dieta, vision quests, supervised client work, land guardianship, and the practical realities of building a shamanic practice that serves without extracting.

The circle is small. Enrollment closes once it begins. If you have completed EarthWalker and feel the call to serve, this is where that call becomes a vocation.

Your Teacher

I raised forty million dollars in the corporate world. Then I walked away from every cent of it.

I am a trained veterinarian. I have spoken at Harvard Business School and sat in ceremony with Andean elders at Lake Titicaca.
I stewarded a sanctuary in the Catskills for twenty years, then uprooted everything and began again on an old farm in France at midlife, with a young family.

For over twenty years, I have studied and practiced within the traditions of Andean Cosmology and Norse Shamanism, working closely with indigenous teachers, elders, and wisdom keepers. 

I live with my family at La Ferme du Cerf Bleu, an 18th-century farm in Burgundy, France, where I am rewilding twenty acres of land. The land is not a backdrop to this teaching. It is a teacher in its own right.

I do not create dependency. I create sovereignty.
My students do not follow me. They find their own path.

What You Will Learn

The curriculum unfolds over twelve months of live teaching, practice, supervised client work, and ongoing mentorship. FireKeeper builds on everything learned in EarthWalker and takes you into the territory of service, ceremony, and vocation.

Advanced Shamanic Healing
Soul retrieval, cord cutting, energy clearing, extraction work. These are not techniques to collect. They are responsibilities to carry. You will learn them through practice, through supervised client work, and through your own ongoing healing.

Ceremony Leadership
How to hold and lead ceremony. Not how to perform it. How to create sacred space, how to read a room, how to hold what arises when people open to the unseen. Practical, grounded, real. This is where the fire either becomes yours to tend... or doesn't.

Shamanic Tools and Practice
Working with drums, rattles, and other traditional instruments as extensions of your intent. These are not props. They are partners in the work.

Plant Dieta and Vision Quests
Guided plant medicine work and extended solo time in nature. Deep, quiet, supervised. These are not experiences to consume. They are relationships to tend, and they will change you in ways you cannot predict.

Client Work and Community Service
Supervised practice working with real people. Learning to assess energy fields, to listen with your whole body, to know when to act and when to wait. You will complete case studies as part of your certification. Service is not a nice idea. It is the point.

Land Guardianship and Earth Service
The shamanic path does not exist in a vacuum. It exists on the earth, for the earth. You will learn what it means to be a guardian of the land you live on, and how to weave ecological stewardship into your practice and your life.

Building a Sustainable Shamanic Practice
How to bring this work into the world without losing your soul to the marketplace. Honest pricing. Clean offers. A practice built on reciprocity, not extraction. This is an introduction to the principles taught in Sacred Business Mastery (a separate program available to those who want to go deeper into sacred 
business).

Is FireKeeper Right for You?

FireKeeper is for you if:

You have completed EarthWalker (or bring equivalent foundational experience confirmed through application). You feel called to serve others through shamanic healing and ceremony. You are ready 
for the deeper work: advanced techniques, supervised client practice, plant medicine, vision quests, and the weight of carrying the fire for your community.

FireKeeper is also for you if you are already a practitioner of energy healing, bodywork, therapy, or medicine and you want to bring shamanic depth into your existing practice. The Reiki certification and shamanic healing training give you tools you can integrate with what you already do.

FireKeeper is NOT for you if you are looking for a quick certification to add to a bio. This is a year of real work.
It will ask everything of you. That is the point.
