Mandy Bishop
Nature Connected Coach and Artist in Boulder, Colorado
Hi, I'm Mandy. I am a Nature Connected Coach & Guide. I combine ceremony, relationship with nature, deep listening and reflection, and creative expression to meet clients where they are at, guiding them towards the remembrance of their unique truth.
I am a dancer. I am a writer. I am an artist. I am one who laughs and plays and loves to love. I am deeply connected to Earth and heart and story and hands. And music. I am a bridge between worlds, with the soles of my feet on the Earth and my heart oriented towards Spirit. I am a farmer. I am a bread baker. I am a medicine maker. I live in a cabin and chop my own wood to keep warm.
You could say that I am an expert lemonade maker. I am a dancer who lost use of her body. I am an artist who lost use of her hands. I am a lover who has grieved what I thought I would never lose, but what led me down a path to my own soul. I’m an expert at making it through and overcoming tough odds. I am a testament to the strength of a spirit that - far beyond my own conscious intent - is determined to bring its medicine into the world.
I am a woman with a warrior spirit. An unrelenting creative with an internal spark that will not accept anything less than a fully awake, soul-led life of depth and creativity. I am a basket weaver, a fire maker, a lover of story. An apprentice to the old ways and the wisdom of the indigenous soul.
I am a woman who has been blessed with a wild journey through jagged terrain. And beauty. Enough to break my heart wide open. I am one who feels deeply and weeps wildly knowing that the dams of our rivers have also stopped our tears from flowing freely back to the Earth to feed a life that is yet to come.
Our tears are our healers and our challenges are our greatest blessings. It is a knowing in my bones that each of us comes to this life carrying a specific gift - a medicine for our communities at this time. There is great purpose in what we go through, and it is in the breaking apart that we are able to let the light shine on the true purpose and meaning of our lives.
It is my medicine to help guide you into the terrain of the soul, partnering with nature to navigate through big questions, learned behaviors and limiting beliefs. To form a deep and sustainable relationship with nature, within and without. To seek out the gifts that are yours to carry forward, and to fully come to life remembering your deepest truths.
