Welcome Here
I’m Katelyn, and I’m a writer, Yoga Nidra facilitator, Reiki Master Teacher, partner, mother, sister, and friend. I most recently hosted a women’s writing retreat in December of 2025 and a handful of day retreats at The Barn With “Inn” in West Virginia prior to moving to the mountains of Western North Carolina. You can most often find me facilitating monthly Yoga Nidra & Reiki experiences at Asheville Salt Cave, as well as hiking, writing, sipping coffee, and enjoying time spent with my loved ones.
Scorpio
Those who are called to my work are drawn to the depth of the scorpionic energy I embody — death/rebirth, pleasure/pain transformation, philosophy, spiritualism, and storytelling.
I don’t skim the surface of things. I am interested in what lives underneath — in the parts of you that may not have language yet, but are itching to be seen, felt, healed.
And within this, I take pride in creating spaces that are intentional, structured, and deeply held for transformative work to happen.
My Sacred Work
I predominately serve women who want to feel alive again in their bodies, their creativity, their lives. Through writing, we give language to what has been held/silenced. Through stillness and sacred rest (Yoga Nidra), we begin to feel what has been numbed.
Through retreat, we step away from everything that pulls at us and return to what lives within — our authentic truth and perhaps a story waiting to be told.
My story
I’ve spent most of my life surviving —over a decade of childhood abuse, postpartum depression, panic, grief, my husband and I leaving everything familiar to build something of our own in the mountains of Western North Carolina, learning how to mother a child who mirrors me back to myself, learning how to listen, and learning how to stay.And the threads that quite literally kept me alive through all of this were love, community, Reiki, Yoga Nidra, and beauty.
And when I say beauty, I mean those moments where light shines through the dark. A strawberry bush I would indulge in while the sun kissed my 5 year old cheeks in the backyard of the home I was abused in. Mountains against a blue sky where I decided to make my home after breaking the hearts of family members for leaving. A piece of art that stopped me mid-step, stirring something deep within me. The way grief and awe can exist in the same breath here —aliveness.
And so I create spaces of love —opportunities for community to gather and immerse in beauty while receiving the medicine that saved and continues to save me.
I am so honored to have you here!
Warmly,
Katelyn
