Shannon and Laura chat with ceremonial tattoo artists, Rachel Christensen and Ashley River, who blend the sacred, initiation and storytelling into every line and symbol.
This episode covers elements of deep reverence for what is marked onto someone’s skin, how it is done, and the impact that it has on the artist as well as the recipients. Shan shares some of her recent experiences of being mentored by both of these amazing women.
Learn more about how Rachel and Ashley started to work within this space and what it has evolved into. Dive into the sacred art of tattoo, mentorship, holding space for yourself, others and transformative ritual - from retreats to rites of passage, ancestral memory to personal alchemy on skin.
