About Me

“While we can express our creativity through mediums like painting, singing, writing, or dancing, it is the process itself, the journey we embark upon, that truly matters, unifies us, and brings about true change and healing” ~ Brigidina


Kathleen Brigidina - “Essence of the Forest” 

Why I do what I do and why I invite you.

I am a Creative Doula Coach, Intuitive Sacred Earth Artist, teacher, Art Exhibition Curator and Juror, Poet and Writer, Book Illustrator, Energy Healing Practitioner, Multi-Facilitator, Master Community Engagement Coordinator-Consultant, Master Sustainability Consultant. 

I also currently find beauty and balance as “The Visionary Culture Advisor '' for Shiloh Sophia and MUSEA Organization, and as cofounder of creative community with artist Gaia Orion.         

My calling has been to support conscious creative expression for the fulfillment of Loving relation with our planet and each other, as I remain open and receptive to heal, and grow myself. while remaining open and receptive to heal, and grow myself.  As scientific evidence now demonstrates we are Nature. I have longed believed we are Earth, an interconnected ecosystem of all life, not separate or superior but intimately entwined, belonging too and responsible for each other. As Nature, we share Nature’s Creative energy, the life force that connects, evolves, inspires and propels us forward. My mission is to nurture creative beings as the seeds of our new potential. Believing that by gathering in a community we can make stronger intentional choices that can manifest a healthier world vision. Though we can be creative for various reasons such as ritual, joy, activism, healing or simply to propel ourselves forward. I feel creativity can also be experienced as a guiding force, the voice of Earth, the voice of spirit, the response to social and environmental disasters and possibly one of the most essential tools we have innate access too.  While we can express our creativity through mediums like painting, singing, writing, or dancing, it is the process itself, the journey we embark upon, that truly matters, unifies us, and brings about true change and healing.
