Hi Friends,

I am Rachel, and I am a poet, mystic, dreamer, lover and darkly soulful cheerleader. 

I am currently in process to become ordained as a Hebrew Priestess through Rabbi Jill Hammer and Taya Shere's Kohenet program. 

I wrote the poem "What to Tell the Children," which is currently getting attention through shares both online and in person. I am in the process of shooting and editing the video for this poem with my dear collaborator, Student Oscar-nominated director, Rahat Mahajan. Stay tuned for the results!

My unique interests and experience give me a distinct perspective and a wild variety of traditions to choose from when addressing reality.

This comes out in my expression of self, including but not limited to my poetry on the page and on the stage, as well as in videos...poetry videos are the main thing I am excited to share with you, but that's just the beginning...which is why I love this Patreon concept, (thank you for existing, Patreon!) It allows me to express myself in a diversity of ways, which is the absolute best for me.

*I've performed my poetry at events like TEDx and with artists and leaders such as daKAH Hip Hop Orchestra, Marianne Williamson, Saul Williams, and Rahzel, at venues such as Disney Concert Hall, Royce Hall, The Broad Stage and The San Francisco Palace of Fine Arts, as well as spiritual and sacred spaces like Jewlicious Fest X aboard The Queen Mary, Agape Spiritual Center and Sinai Temple, conferences such as Women's Visionary Congress and Visionary Convergence, and festivals like Lucidity Fest and the Vans Warped Tour.

*I am a teaching artist. I am a poetry workshopper and editor with experience around the world from the Middle East to Europe and back again, as well as here in the USA, at places like UCLA Extension Writers' Program, UC Riverside Palm Desert's Low Residency MFA, Cal Berkeley, Cal State Long Beach, and the State of California's Juvenile Correctional System, to name just a few. 

*I love learning new stuff in the realms of science and the mystical, as well as human behavior, and I love sharing my discoveries. 

*I got this wounded healer thing on lock. And while it hasn't always been a bed of roses for me, I am super grateful for the perspective I have been afforded. I have background experience in energy healing, movement healing, Jewish mystical traditions, and apprenticeship experience in ceremonial work from the Shipibo lineage of the Amazon Rainforest. Long story short, what I am saying is I love helping you heal. And I love giving (solicited) advice. Love it. LOVE IT.

*Get this: on top of all those shenanigans, I teach Zumba and my classes are a ridiculous blast.

My mission in allllll these different areas remains the same: To Set Your Soul Loose. To Help You Get Free.

So, I am excited to create new poems: in written form, audio form, video form, and through live performance.

I am excited to workshop with you one-on-one. I am excited to tell you about the latest things that are blowing my mind. I am excited for you to open your heart and to respond in kind with heartfelt advice. And I am excited to dance with you!

This is gonna be great.

Love,
Rachel

3. Freestyle Skype Chat - we can have a 45 minute Skype chat on the topic of your choice, if you have an issue you are working on, or want to talk about spirituality, or whatever, really.

With this money, I can begin to collaborate with people of great talent in the realm of filmmaking to make some cool vids! I can also work solo, depending on the project. Music Videos for poems with tracks, Videos of my musings on La Vida Loca, Maybe some funny Sketch Videos, the sky's the limit!
