Designed by Simone and the spirit guides and Ancestors who walk with her.

The team who delivers Sacred Conversations rely on their guides and intuition to ensure every experience is tailored to the needs of attendees and the instructions of their Ancestors. Commonly, the team receives messages as early as when attendees register right through to their arrival.

“I came because I was in a place in my life where I didn't know what was happening next.”
