Let’s start here:
You are the heroine of your own story. And that story is full of beauty and wonder, as well as struggles and tangles.

You may feel like you’re trapped in a mundane routine.

You may have suffered trauma and loss that stole your sense of agency and sovereignty.

You may be an unfulfilling job, still dreaming of how you could be your own boss, so you could offer your own magic, make your own art, and heal the world in your own way.

Your identity has been distilled to being “So-and-so’s mom.”

Your life might look great on paper, but you feel a sense of emptiness at the core because you’ve sold so many little parts of your soul to “have it all.”

You might feel feel like you’ve waited too long, missed your chance, or spent too many years being nice and playing small.

In spite of all this—BECAUSE of all this—you are Heroine of your own story.

Healing for Heroines, my 1:1 tarot reading/intuitive guidance/energy healing sessions, can help you answer the big questions, make sense of life’s tangles, see your own brilliance, and take your own next best step.

 
 

These 75 minute healing sessions are held over Zoom & include:

  • tarot and oracle readings

  • energy healing techniques including reiki & health kinesiology (muscle testing)

  • Chumpi Illumination and elements of sacred geometry

  • Guided journey with the Archetypes of Sovereignty and the wisdom of mythology, especially the goddesses of Ireland & the Celtic World

 

Meet Your Healer

Before we go on, let me introduce myself. I’m Marisa Goudy. I’m a Story Healer, a Myth Worker, and a Guide for Heroines at the Crossroads.

I am the author of The Sovereignty Knot: A Woman’s Way to Freedom, Power, Love, and Magic, co-author of Divine Embodiment: The Art & Practice of Chumpi Illumination.

Perhaps you’ve heard my show, KnotWork Storytelling, the podcast where we untangle our myths and reweave our stories. I’m scholar of Irish literature, mythology, and folklore, and Celtic spirituality is at the heart of my life and work.

I have more than twenty years of experience as a Reiki practitioner and have studied Chumpi Illumination and other forms of mysticism at the Sacred Center Mystery School since 2007. I have been reading tarot for even longer.

My years of study, training, writing, and dreaming give me the insight to hold you, your stories, and your dreams, wherever you are on your own Heroine’s Journey—or as I like to call it, your own Heroine’s Knot.

Yes, I’ll pull your tarot cards, but rather than thinking of this as fortune telling, I invite you think of it as story healing.

A Healing for Heroines Session offers you a chance to see your own past in a new light. When you can make meaning of your own emotions and experiences, you can find wholeness and healing in the present. And then, my oh my, what a wonderful next chapter you can write in your own Heroine’s Story.

 
During our session, I felt as if we went into some dark room, one that I had long been trying to figure out how to enter into by myself. It was a room that was lined with all the answers I needed.

It was as if Marisa walked up to me with a lantern full of twinkle lights and said, ‘Ok, come on. We both know this place, but I’ve got a new way for you to see it. Oh, and by the way, I notice you’ve been carrying your own lantern all along, but you’ve been covering it over with doubt. How about I help you pull the shades back so you can use the light of your own creativity to navigate this beautiful inner chamber of yours?”
