About Your Healing Arts Practitioner:

Sessions are offered by EmpowR founder Rae Carter and draw from her lived experiences and study and practice in several lineages:

Rae Carter standing in rose bush holding a basket of roses

  • healing from a multi-faceted health and trauma crisis which included cancer and opened the pathways for consciousness transformation
  • 25 year career in communications and human behavior change for social impact
  • 6 years of intentional study and practice in the lineages of animist/indigenous/Pagan worldview,  Celtic and Norse ancestry, cultural somatics and somatic abolitionism, Reiki, and Western Tropical Astrology
  • a lifetime of holding space for complexity, remembering her Western European wise woman medicine lineage (energy medicine, herbalism, intuition & visioning), and infusing her gifts with nature elemental magic, movement, music & mystery
  • recognition of the violent history of Euro-centrism, institutional racism, systemic oppression & cultural appropriation in Western herbalism and the responsibility as a white-bodied herbalist to advocate for healing justice in EmpowR Transformation’s commitment to both moving forward and being accountable to transformative justice lineages & engaging in reparations as a plant medicine healing sanctuary

“In this era of social transformation, I’m learning new ways of seeing and thinking about the world every day. A session with Rae brought me a deeper level of understanding of and peace with shedding culturally engrained behaviors that create limits. Just one afternoon at the Sanctuary reminded me that there are so many different ways of knowing and experiencing life.”

~ L.C. – Burlington, Vermont

“Working with Rae challenged me to grant myself the permission I was seeking from others to finally listen to and trust my own intuition…I’m excited again to venture forward, knowing and trusting that my old patterns are no longer serving me, and it’s time to discover new ones.”

~ Nicole D., Berlin, Vermont
