Recovering ourselves and our communities through Initiation and Rites of Passage
Welcome to the Map of Womanhood School. We offer a unique program centered around Rites of Passage. What makes us distinct is the understanding that, just as it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a community of initiated women to support each other through our Rites of Passage.
We recognize that having a circle of empowered women around our daughters, particularly between the ages of 8 and 14, is crucial for fostering a strong sense of self and helping them discover their unique paths in life. This support is vital as they navigate the challenges of adolescence, their initiation into womanhood. We have developed this program based on a deep understanding of the sacred journey of hormones and the awakening of the soul, which occurs at the second rite of passage threshold along the pathway of womanhood, just before the teenage years begin. This development of a sense of self is crucial as it shapes how our daughters navigate their own inner journey toward wholeness before they leave home at the fourth threshold. As mothers, we cannot do this work alone; we need the support of a community of women.
Similar to a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly by entering a cocoon, our program prepares girls for the cocoon or the spiritual quest of the teenage years. Through the work of the Map of Womanhood, they learn to embrace and navigate this transition, ready to unfurl their new wings as women, with the witnessing, hounoring, and support of their community of mothers.
Bundle 1 – For the women to mend the soul of the village ( for groups or individuals).
Restoring community – Recovering ourselves and holding our daughters in strength.
SET UP YOUR COMMUNITY GIRLS CIRCLE BY RECEIVING THE MAP OF WOMANHOOD PROGRAM AND SOUL MENDING TRAINING.
If we are going to gather around our girls in a good way, we need to heal our inner girls, our inner teenagers. In this training we go back and revisit these parts of ourselves, heal them, and give them what they did not have. Mentoring girls is simply helping them awaken to their divine essence or genius. But we can’t become mentors if we are not in touch with our own authentic self and unique truth. We have to model these for our collective daughters and embody it. We cannot give them what we do not have ourselves. Bundle 1 is the recovery of ourselves so we can become in touch with our own authentic self and unique truth, and so we can give our unique medicine to the girls.
This work is also relevant for ALL women who have daughters or grand daughters, who are running mentoring programs or just want to be with girls.

It comes in three modules
Module 1 – Becoming Native
This module focuses on beautiful practices and significant teachings designed to help you embody ways of being that strengthen your sense of self. It includes meditations, ceremonies, and guidance on creating a circle of sisters to collaboratively build a strong support system. You will engage in nature connection and shamanic practices to foster a deep sense of belonging with the land and each other. Grounding exercises and practices will help you enhance your intuition, establish boundaries, and develop your senses through stillness and active listening. You will also be introduced to the Map of Womanhood and the nine Rites of Passage thresholds that women navigate throughout their lives.
Module 2 – Map of Womanhood
This module dives deep into the journey of recovering and reclaiming our natural power and true essence as women. It focuses on revisiting the Map of Womanhood to reconnect with our Maidenhood. By journeying back and honoring four significant thresholds and natural rites of passage we experienced, we will heal, witness, and celebrate those times in wholeness. This process allows your Maiden self to receive what she may not have had and to express her unique gifts and contributions to our world, Mother Earth, and our communities. Utilizing shamanic techniques facilitates the integration of the soul, enabling you to carry this wholeness into your Elderhood. We will work as a group of women on the Map of Womanhood spiral before engaging with younger girls. This includes exploring the rites of passage thresholds you moved through unconsciously as a young girl and addressing any healing needed. We will also undertake healing work through journeying to recover your authentic self while nurturing your heart, birth experience, Inner Child, and Inner Teenager. By using the Map and incorporating soul mending, we aim to heal past fragmentation from the adolescent years and mend the destined future of your life through self-initiation in shamanic practices, as well as through witnessing, honoring, and caring for each other in ceremony.
Module 3 – The Soulskin Mesa Bundle
In this module, you will explore ceremonies, myths, stories, and teachings that guide you in creating a sacred altar to yourself as an act of devotion.

Testimonial
Witnessing the young women is an inspiration, because seeing them gives me hope. They joined together effortlessly, and all they wanted to do was be out in the woods, they know and feel intuitively that the trees give them breath, nourishment, and love. They came out the woods yesterday glowing with twigs in their hair and mud on their face, and I felt tears of joy at the magnificence I witnessed.
I sat with the Mothers a lot yesterday in the bell tent, and had a huge realisation, it is the Mothers who hold the wounds. And it is US, who need to restore our own inner Maidens, so we do not project our old story onto the young girls of today, to me to young women of today are INCREDIBLE – they are doing just fine, they are the future and it is now our duty to restore ourselves, and retrieve our own threads of wisdom so we can live as an embodiment of Love.
To become the Temple within.
So when the girls look to us for our support- they see empowered wise elders to hold their Vision with them.
In love

Eartha, thanks so much for all your amazing and profound work. When I first watched some of the videos on your website I wept for the vision of circles of women and girls doing this work in every community…I’m so grateful for everything you’ve brought to our lodge so far….your embodied and lived wisdom, your powerful invitations and your sense of play and presence. Can’t wait for the girls to meet you when they join us!
