Meet your guide
I’m Staci Levine, founder of Sacred Woman Collective. I am a circle facilitator, certified sound healer, trauma-informed breathwork facilitator, Reiki practitioner, and ordained minister. Over the years, I’ve hosted hundreds of circles and retreats across the U.S. and around the world.
My StoryCircles have completely transformed my life. What began as a way to bring women together has become a calling - a living, breathing practice of connection, healing, and remembrance. I’ve witnessed women soften, open, and rediscover themselves inside these sacred spaces. I’ve seen lifelong friendships form, hearts mend, and confidence return. Every single time, I’m reminded of how powerful it is when we gather with intention.
I truly believe the world would be a kinder, more compassionate place if we all sat in circle more often, listening deeply, speaking truthfully, and remembering that we belong to one another.
I created the Sacred Circle Facilitator Certification because I believe every woman holds the capacity to guide others, and that when women rise together, we create ripples of healing that reach families, communities, and generations to come. I look forward to this journey with you.
