Where We Come From

We grew up in a very big, noisy, soft-hearted family just up the road from where the Village now stands. Our family is usually around a table somewhere, eating and storytelling, shouting and showing up. Everything is a celebration and life is spent with such intensity.

The practice of offering and treating love like a verb wasn't something we found later on, it's the spice and herb life has been seasoned with from the start.

People often ask what it’s like to work with family, waiting for the inside scoop. There's nothing more true than saying that for us working together has always been the dream.

In truth, we’ve been doing this work (the holding, tending, resourcing) for most of our lives. Wellness Village NH has simply given this work a home, making it a space you can come join us in, too.

 
What We've Learned & Carry Forward

Our paths have been bending, hilly and quite wandering at times. Much of our work is best put as tending to the thresholds.

We’ve traveled to countries of the global majority to learn from their hands- how to honor life and celebrate togetherness. We’ve been in trainings dedicated to empowering women’s leadership, active bystandership, anti-racism and community resilience.

Together we’ve led New Hampshire’s women and youth chapters of Gather the Women’s global matrix, facilitating the gathering of this powerful sisterhood in Harlem, New York.
We’ve led circle work in living rooms, meeting halls and community spaces across New England.

We hold qualifications in medicine, bodywork and attunement in energy work. We’ve spent time as hospice volunteers, worked at daycares, nursing homes and hospitals. We've sat on school boards and spoken on a panel for black maternal health.

These threads are many and they braid us together.
 

Bringing it to the Village

The idea for Wellness Village NH didn’t arrive as a perfect idea all at once. It was more like a call that kept ringing, over and over. When we finally picked up we heard what we had known for a long time: we are meant to do this work together and we are meant to share it.

So we searched for a space, the right space. Then, together with our village, we shaped it. Once an open-space print shop, we hung drywall, moved furniture into place, painted and dressed the walls in mementos of the places we've been and people we’ve known.

It is, in a very real sense, a home built by the hands of our first village so we could offer a home for the next.
 

What the Village is Today

Wellness Village NH is both a community for providers and a community for clients.
Under its shelter, each of us three have our own modality and business, working right alongside the practitioners we support. Yes, we own the Village, but we are on the ground with each of you, doing this work shoulder-to-shoulder.

Inside our walls you’ll find:
• furnished treatment rooms and meeting spaces
• a gathering space that hums with hope
• an adjoining Airbnb for retreats or rest
• weekly support groups
• free monthly events for the community
• classes for imagination and education
• blessing ceremonies, workshops & offerings that evolve with the seasons

We are an energetic hub, a safe space, a fierce resource. Our informal invitation to every person who walks through the door is simple: take what you need, offer what you can.
 

Where We’re Heading

If you ask us what’s next, we’ll tell you this: more. At over five years in, we still feel the space breathing.

We imagine more circles, more love. More providers bringing the work they’re passionate about to those who need it. More people arriving exactly as they are. More spaces that feel like exhale. More village, more this, more you.

Because the world is hungry for places where people remember how to care for one another.
We grew up in a village like that- one that shaped us, steadied us and reminds us go build more love into the world.

And so we have.

Welcome to ours.

Welcome to Wellness Village NH.
