I recently returned home from a vision quest & something became crystal clear. I do not want to buy into the capitalistic way of living anymore. It is extractive & harmful to all of us. I want to try something new, but in fact, it is old...

Why do we say we want something—love, success, ease—and then sabotage it the moment it shows up? In this honest and powerful piece, Eleanor shares a personal story of self-sabotage and introduces a practice that changed her life: The Deepest Fear + Love Inventory. Rooted in shadow work, unconscious awareness, and the liberating power of attention, this 5-step practice helps you uncover the hidden fears beneath your desires—so you can stop repeating old patterns and start choosing from a place of trust, love, and empowerment. If you’ve ever felt stuck, sabotaged your own growth, or wondered why you're not getting what you say you want… this is for you.

The “Singles Parties” have been hosting a total H. They have sold out each and every time I have hosted them. The events are so powerful and connective. It is an honor to facilitate them.

As we are well aware, in our Western world, our culture, ecology, and psyches are shaking right now, more than ever before. I feel urgency because in my work I see pathology, anxiety, suicide, use of pharmaceuticals to numb us out, are at an all time high, and our disconnection from our bodies and nature isn’t far behind.

Palo Santo wood has been burned by indigenous cultures for thousands of years for cleansing and clearing energies. This sacred tree is often found in Central and South America. (Peru, Brazil, Ecuador, Bolivia). Palo Santo in Spanish means “holy stick.”

This is a post for my Dad, Henry on Father's day. His empowering parenting style and resilience fostered my sisters and my independence and strength. Dad's unconditional love, faith, and commitment to uplifting women have profoundly shaped us. Henry Evans Hooper's legacy as a father, teacher, and role model impacts all who know him and we are so grateful this Father's Day in 2024.

Today, I say goodbye to the traditional licensed therapy route, and hello to coaching. I release the broken system. This blog shares the story of why I decided not to become a therapist but instead go the coaching route.

I am inspired to write this because a kind, gorgeous and strong holistic psychotherapist and colleague of mine named Cody Wiggs died in 2021. Cody’s mission is to share the power of psychedelics and nature based healing. I feel compelled to share the last conversation we had together before he passed away because I share his mission too. His sharing has given me the courage to share as well. Thank you Cody!

How letting go of 'the dream partner list' led me to true love. In this blog, I share my journey from pursuing "unavailable men" to finding true love. As a Marriage and Family Therapy student, I realized I was choosing the wrong partners. Inspired by books, psychedelics, and manifestation practices, I visualized my ideal relationship, imagining my heart as a magnet to my one true love. I would have missed him if I had stayed "attached" to the list. Thank goodness I let it go and embraced the wonderful human who is now my beloved husband Jon Medina.
