RACHEL TORDA -- The Dreaming Lotus
Artist, writer, seeker. Rachel is a past student in the Deck Creators Mastermind and the creator of The Flow Tarot: A Deck of The Water Element. She makes things. And she is endlessly curious about the connection between the seemingly everyday, and the magic lurking just beneath the surface…. Rachel paints watercolors, writes, teaches art classes, creates tarot and oracle decks, and makes jewelry. She teaches college philosophy students about Hildegard, the 10th century Christian mystic. She plays Hildegard's music on the harp, bakes her 1,000-year-old recipe for cookies, and shares her bits of wisdom handed down through the ages. Rachel gardens, hikes, knits, journals and does a million other things — including running a 100-year-old Letterpress in her garage — with her husband and daughter, her partners in crime. In the class Rachel shares how she uses both Procreate and Photoshop to create, edit, and produce her decks, she shares her experience creating a guidebook, and talks about the process of bringing her deck into the world in 22 days from idea to tangible item. |

Hello Beautiful Creative You!
I'm happy you're here. I'm Kiala Givehand, a multi-passionate intuitive & intentional creative. I walk through the world as a LifeAlchemist™ for creative, heart-centered, soul-filled women who want to change the world by shining their light more fully and more brightly. I call myself a LifeAlchemist™ because I help women bring together all the parts of themselves to create a life they love. As an Alchemist, I support women through creative and spiritual awakenings and guide them towards empowerment. As an artist, I make (and sometimes sell) handmade journals using a mix of mediums. I host workshops, retreats and online classes where I get to teach the things that nourish my soul -- bookbinding, journaling, printmaking, creative writing, astrology, tarot, human design, and self-discovery through transformational tools and content. For almost 20 years, I taught English, Language Arts, and Creative Writing at every educational level, while simultaneously traveling the U.S. delivering workshops and presentations to educators. While I no longer travel to work with teachers, I now enjoy working one-on-one and in small groups with students, teachers, artists, writers, and creative entrepreneurs. I do this work because I love helping women find the thing that fills them with joy and watching them pursue it without regrets or apologies. I cherish every single day and treat life as one amazing adventure. I play with paint and watercolor, fold paper into books, write poetry, short fiction, & creative non-fiction, and guide women through sacred remembering of who they truly are. But always, every single day, I journal and do something that I feel is creative. Oh!! And did I mention that I'm the proud owner of a fabulous collection of fountain pens? (I know. Geek alert!) Join me and let's create something beautiful, TODAY!! |
