Welcome to my Heart Space

Fáilte ~ Welcome. My name is Brenda. I am a Priestess of the Spiral Path, dedicated to living from the heart and with the cycles of nature. Anchored in my own indigenous Irish spiritual tradition, I walk an earth-honouring path of the embodied divine feminine, living in rhythm with the magic of my menstrual cycle and the cycle of the seasons. 

Passionate about sharing these life-altering principles with others, I facilitate women’s circles worldwide (online) and in Austin, Texas, and lead women’s rites of passage events. Behind the scenes, I am completing a spiritual travel memoir based on my truth-seeking journeys in the East; drafting a book based on Irish spirituality; developing a menstrual cycle ritual guidebook; and launching the Red Temple Podcast where we discuss the power of our menstrual cycle.

I’m so happy you found your way here, and am honoured to be on this wild and beautiful journey with you! Together, by following our heart, embodying our cyclic wisdom, and restoring our connection to nature, we birth the New Earth. Is éa ~ It is so.

Le Grá ~ With Love, Brenda

And if we rise up rooted, like trees … well then, women might indeed save not only ourselves, but the world.

Circles

Are you looking for a sacred community of women where it’s safe to share your heart, speak your truth, and be celebrated by each other? Join our Priestesses of the Spiral Path Women’s Circles here in Austin, Texas and online via zoom, where we gather in rhythm with the Celtic Wheel of the Year and deepen our personal journey with the Divine Feminine. Interested in creating a truly magical and meaningful rite of passage celebration for yourself or a loved one? Reach out about my Rites of Passage private events. Do you have a pre-teen or young teen girl in your life that could benefit from circle-based mentorship? Visit my Girls Circles page to learn more.

Truth

Have you ever wondered about who you truly are and why you’re really here? Questioned whether there’s more to life than what society tells you? In 2009 I gave up my life as I knew it in Ireland and ventured East to seek truth and find answers to these questions. Visit my Truth Book page to learn about the spiritual travel memoir I’m currently writing, and take a transformative soul journey through Kathmandu, the Himalayas and Calcutta! Visit my Introduction to Meditation page for guidance on experiencing your own precious inner wellspring of peace and clarity, and join peacemakers around the globe to help raise the collective vibration to one of peace, love and unity, in my World Peace Meditations page.

Testimonials

Thank you so much for facilitating such a warm, welcoming, sacred, and safe space for all of us. Everyone kept raving last night about how amazing your energy is and how much they love you. You truly have a gift, and I feel so blessed and grateful to experience it and be in that space with you

Zanna, December 2023

I have been trying to find the words of the experience of being in circle, and the word that keeps coming to mind is simply “magical.” Of course, now that I’ve written that, there is a flood of other words: empowering, connected, free, comforting, beautiful… It was truly wonderful, and I am so grateful to you for all that you have invested in your own spiritual path and expansion to be able to hold such a welcoming and transformative space for others. Thank you.

Heather, March 2023

I feel so free and happy today. I have such deep gratitude for the courage that came out of our circle and for Brenda for bringing us together and giving me the opportunity to release my fear. You have literally changed my life. With deep gratitude.

Corinne, August 2022

Thank you Brenda for holding such a container, to allow the magic of our spirits to manifest, and for our voices to be heard and held. I feel Light, and delight today, after an evening well, well, spent.

Oriane, May 2022

Last night’s circle was a beautiful experience. It was deeply needed and showed me the path back to myself. You are truly gifted at holding space.
