Wild Gratitude is a practice grounded in the sacredness of nature. It is about gratitude for all things wild, all things having to do with nature, including our own nature. Here at Wild Gratitude, gratitude is about more than simply being grateful for the gifts nature gives. Wild Gratitude is about allowing wild spaces, wild animals, wild plants, and wild cycles to direct us to the Giver. Wild Gratitude means cultivating a loving relationship with the Divine Source of all life and our own wild souls.
At Wild Gratitude, a core value of being a Spiritual Advisor is inclusiveness. People of all spiritual paths, faiths, races, genders, and sexual orientations are welcome. Women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ authors and teachers are highlighted along with authors and teachers that support these communities. Stacey is a person with a disability and she honors the wisdom that people with disabilities and illnesses (physical, mental and emotional) bring.
Wild Gratitude is a purpose-led, conscious business. This means that Stacey operates her Spiritual Advisor business in a holistic and intentional way by valuing people, the health of the planet, fiscal sustainability, and purpose equally. Stacey cares about people and this shows in the intimate, egalitarian, and nurturing spaces she provides. Her work is inclusive and co-creative. Stacey cares about the planet and this shows in the way her business is powered by solar electricity, promotes connection to nature, and donates to animal welfare nonprofits. To have fiscal sustainability, Stacey makes a profit so she can make a living, invest in evolving the business, and continue to serve, but her business is not built to serve the bottom line. And, Stacey cares about purpose. Her purpose is to cooperate with nature and the Divine to realize humanity on the spiritual path.
Stacey’s approach is inter-spiritual and spiritual but not religious, embracing the beauty of all paths that lead to the Divine. She has worked as a Spiritual Advisor for seekers from over 30 countries around the world of all different faiths. Her expertise in spirituality and as a shamanic teacher allows her to help you unveil the cosmic design woven into your life’s tapestry. Seekers from all and any spiritual paths are welcome. Rather than watering down belief, this diverse approach to understanding the Ineffable allows for more compassion with ourselves and others.
Drawing from decades of experience with nature and shamanic practices, Stacey is a shamanic teacher that resonates with the rhythms of the Earth. She understands the profound healing and wisdom that nature offers, guiding you towards a deeper connection with the natural world.

Many clients come to a Spiritual Advisor when they are considering or in the midst of a major life transition. This life change often involves a spiritual awakening and/or a shift in extrasensory awareness. It can also be an external shift such as a career change, starting a new business, retirement, change in romantic relationship status, change in parenting role, or relocation.
Caregivers need soul care more than anyone, and a Spiritual Advisor supports caregivers of all types. A Spiritual Advisor offers support to professionals in nursing, social work, psychology, spiritual direction, energy healing, life coaching, and more. People caring for elderly or disabled loved ones and people caring for loved ones with substance use disorder are often among those who meet with a Spiritual Advisor. As a Spiritual Advisor, Stacey knows the struggles of caregiver fatigue and the teachings of the 12-step programs.
People experiencing faith deconstruction (loss of faith in a religious institution), who don’t fully fit into their religion, and those who are spiritual but not religious deserve soul care. A Spiritual Advisor supports people through the doubt, confusion, sense of being lost, and loneliness that comes with not belonging to one specific ideology. In this practice, all questions are welcome and valid. We embrace the wisdom of not knowing and work to find comfort in mystery.
