Because A relationship with yourself is not optional

THE SELF-LED WOMAN

A psychedelic group for women craving depth, healing, and a true return to themselves.

The Self-Led Woman is a 10-week KAP (Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy) group for women where you feel safe enough to drop the mask, meet the parts of you that have been running the show (anxiety, anger, people-pleasing, perfectionism), and finally get some space from them.. Through psychedelic support and guided integration, you’ll return to clarity, confidence, peace, and yourself.

Ketamine can “clear the channel” — soften the nervous system, loosen the ego grip, and give you perspective you can’t think your way into. Then the group container helps you integrate it in real life: your marriage, your parenting, your reactions, your emotions, your relationships, your boundaries.

The Self-Led Woman’s group is for you if…

  • You’re a woman who looks “fine” on the outside, but inside you’re running on tension, pressure, irritability, or emotional exhaustion.

  • You want to become less reactive and more present with your family and friends.

  • You’re tired of living on autopilot and want to lead life with intention instead of reactivity.

  • You feel overwhelmed or disconnected from yourself and are craving clarity, stability, and groundedness.

  • You crave authenticity, you want to return to yourself.

  • You have resentment in your relationship (or parenting) building up and you don’t want it to keep hardening

  • You want a community of women who are also committed to healing, growth, and leading from their most authentic selves.
