Julie is a counselor, tarot reader, and yoga and meditation teacher with over two decades of practice. She is a staff writer for Spirituality and Health Magazine and has dozens of guided meditations available on the Insight Timer app. She is the author of Secrets of the Eternal Moon Phase Goddesses: Meditations on Desire, Relationships, and the Art of Being Broken (SkyLight Paths 2016), which is focused on a set of Tantric moon phase goddesses that helped her heal from trauma and find beauty again after heartbreak. Her second book, the Canada Book Award-winning WANT: 8 Steps to Recovering Desire, Passion, and Pleasure After Sexual Assault (Mango, April 2019) goes deeper into that recovery process with an encouraging outlook towards healing and possibility after trauma. Her latest book, The Full Moon Yearbook (David&Charles 2023) is all about understanding the cycles of a year through perspectives on the moon from all over the world.
