It is one of my deepest joys to witness another bloom into their natural liberated fullness, felt both in their inner lives and in the world."
Katherine Z.
"I live, love, and guide others into their embodied sense of passion, power, and purpose through online containers and in-person retreats.
Studying with Katherine I experienced profound transformation in my life and I have been able to embody and live from more of my essence. Katherine is a true teacher in that she guides us by example, inviting each of us to take full responsibility for our own awakening, and finding our own answers. In her sensually powerful feminine way, she invites us to step into our true service. She is an incredible embodiment of the Feminine in her absolute beauty, strength, and dedication to love and she wields it powerfully!
Katherine is a force of nature. She carries a compelling frequency that is palpably orienting across geographical space. She brings an integrity, truth and deep love to every microscopic moment of her time in devotional service. The precision of her acuity in identifying and conveying complex shadow dynamics is equal in scope and depth to her spacious, loving presence.
Katherine is the guide who I had been looking for and who showed up when I was ready to step in and say yes to myself. I have become my self in ways beyond what I could’ve ever imagined, and I am in the process of creating a beautiful life centered in the core of my being, and truly aligned with my soul embodied purpose, held in a deep embrace of love.
Studying with Katherine has been the most profound, direct, and life-altering teachings I have ever received. After a decade of traveling the world and seeking high and low for my spiritual home, I have humbly and gratefully arrived.
Katherine as mentor and guide on this path is not only embodied but also a living example of this ancient lineage, truly walking her talk.
So much has changed within me and in my outer life since I started this work. And at the core it is the continuous deepening of the intimacy with myself and love. The way you show up in your humanness, authenticity and at the same time as a powerful wise guide and teacher makes me feel incredible safe.
The combination of deep tantric practices, shadow work, and union of deep spirituality - LOVE - and our humanness is such a powerful combination in locking long stuck parts in me. The way you embody this work, your depth, your wisdom, your realness and authenticity, your deep spiritual devotion and at the same time being totally human in a "wordly" life is a tangible example and invitation into what is possible for all of us.
Katherine's heart is uniquely generous and mystically direct, in ways I wouldn’t have the words to express if not for our Sacred Sites pilgrimage. This was a pilgrimage to the strength in myself and the awakening of a truth I came in this body to cultivate, deepen and share. Instead of chasing enlightenment I'm now touching into the living and breathing truth that I've always been enlightened, alive in being reintroduced to My Self.
Katherine is a force! I’ve been working with her for the past 5 years. She has the capacity to meet my deepest fears, longings, hurts and traumas, through her profound gift of meeting me at my Soul’s level, to rewire the distorted beliefs I was desperately clinging to. Through her work, I have a new way of living. Loving myself now means I feel safe in my body to be vulnerable, and to fully receive my wants and desires.
I met Katherine when I was 30, at an inflection point – faced with the choice to become an even higher-performing automaton, or be me.
Over the five years she’s mentored me, she’s been a steady presence through every kind of intensity as I unlearn who I’m not and embody who I am — the fault lines that opened each time I looked at myself more honestly and discovered where I needed to evolve, the fever-pitch pressure of high-stakes work, and personal losses that teach what real pain feels like.
Katherine’s love is fierce and unwavering, never indulgent, always honest. Her compassion has “teeth”; it calls me back to truth when I’m looping, acting, making myself wrong, and anesthetizing myself with story, and makes me stay for what I don’t want to feel. I think of her as a wilderness guide for the inner planes – helping me see myself clearly, to get from point a to point b efficiently and safely, without telling me what to do. On the rare occasion she does offer direct advice, I listen fully. She’s one of the very few people whose guidance I trust implicitly, because she is one of the very few people who can see me without distortion.
Her mentorship has also helped me recognize that to operate in the intense environments that call me, I have to be full. The bar isn’t a life of ease or early retirement — it’s to do my purpose, and to be resourced enough in myself to show up and add real value in demanding spaces. It might have taken me decades to understand that, if I ever did, without her.
Ultimately, Katherine’s teaching and role-modeling have taught me how to stay grounded and present inside intensity and to use truth, not expediency, as my litmus test for what to do or not do. I fumble this practice a lot, but I hear (from her) that that’s human.

"Katherine has given me priceless tools and guidance, enabling me to hold space for thousands of people, channel the power of my emotions into creativity and insight, and even connect with my two young daughters in new and profound ways. I am forever grateful for her sharp perception and fearless dedication to helping me uncover the truth of who I am".
"With her compassionate guidance, I have been able to shed what felt like multiple lifetimes of old paradigm through my energetic and somatic body in mere months. Katherine ignited within me a remembrance of my capacity to alchemize suffering into gold. On the other side of major life catastrophe, I am finally embodying the life of my dreams with more presence, delight and gratitude than I thought possible. I have been able to accept the divine call toward a higher octave of my service as a psychoanalyst, tantric guide and relational coach. I am infinitely grateful for Katherine’s devotion to her calling."
"Katherine has that rare ability: to see deeply into your being—not just where you are, but who you are becoming. And then she speaks it. Each word she offers is deliberately chosen, strung with a kind of vibrational intelligence that doesn’t just describe reality—it reshapes it. In her presence, I have felt both precisely dismantled and lovingly rebuilt. Her guidance, like the hands of a well-trained surgeon, has moved me from density to flow with precision and care."
