Ray’s work is shaped by a lifelong devotion to understanding how safety, trust, and aliveness move in the body.

Long before she had language for somatics or nervous system regulation, Ray learned to read energy, presence, and attunement as a child, working closely with horses. These early experiences taught her that trust is built through patience, sensitivity, attunement, co regulation and consistency; lessons that would later become the foundation of her work.

After following the conventional medical and self-improvement paths that aimed to manage or suppress pain, Ray later chose a slower, more embodied way. She spent years studying meditation, embodiment, trauma-informed somatic work, breathwork, and ceremonial practice under seasoned teachers and medicine holders.

Her training includes integrative somatic trauma therapy, psychedelic-assisted therapy education, breathwork facilitation, and deep study in embodied awareness and relational dynamics.

But her work was not shaped by training alone.

Through her own journey of familial rupture, a complex trauma history, a disorienting adoption experience, severe medical challenges, initiatory life transitions, and her own descent out of survival and control, Ray learned what many high-functioning women quietly know: that doing “all the right things” doesn’t necessarily create safety or fulfillment.

True change came not from pushing, fixing, or transcending, but from softening into presence and learning how to stay with what arises, even in the discomfort.

That doesn’t mean bypassing pain or growth edges, but rather developing the nervous system capacity and spiritual groundedness to be with all of life, and not be taken down by it.

Her work isn’t about reaching a place of constant ease where no challenges arise, but rather teaching women how to hold themselves tenderly and honestly when the set waves roll in.

Today, Ray’s work blends somatic regulation, ceremony, nervous system restoration, grounded leadership and feminine healing into spaces where women can land without performing, proving, or powering through.

She has guided hundreds of women through long-form immersions and international retreats, many of whom are leaders, educators, clinicians, entrepreneurs, and creatives who hold an immense amount of responsibility in their lives and communities.

Her work is known for pairing gentleness with precision, depth with clarity, and reverence with real life humanity.

Sometimes the ceremony happens in a circle or retreat space. Sometimes it happens in the ocean, in simplicity, or in quiet moments of truth. For Ray, life itself is the altar, and she invites you into that reality too.

Women leave her spaces not “fixed” or transformed overnight, but equipped; with greater capacity, steadiness, and self-trust. They learn how to meet discomfort without abandoning themselves, how to hold both grief and joy, and how to live with a calm flame of presence rather than constant effort.

Ray’s leadership is deeply human. She believes healing is not about becoming perfect, but about becoming deeply present; and that softness, pleasure, and play are not indulgences, but essential for sustained healing and a fully lived life.

Ray is a deep ceremonialist and medicine woman, but also deeply human and warm. You may meet her in the depth of ceremony, or barefoot skate boarding at sunset.

It’s not about extremes or performance in her world, it’s about letting life touch you in every way possible, and caring deeply…. but not taking it all so seriously.

The Deeper Current exists for women who have done the work, self studied, achieved the goals, and are ready for something quieter, truer, and more embodied.

A deeper way of living, inside their one precious life.
