SPARKSHOP: Shadow Work is Light Work with Courtney Keiser (Part 1: Online) $20
SPARKSHOP: Shadow Work is Light Work with Courtney Keiser (Part 1: Online) $20
Building The Lens to Perceive Shadow Work in a Helpful Way
Under the gentle yet penetrating guidance of Courtney Keiser—Shadow Alchemist & Trauma Specialist, former therapist —you will enter an Online Sparkshop series that demystifies shadow work and reveals why it is the most pivotal journey of self-transformation you can embark upon. Courtney distills a decade of clinical insight and mystical mastery into an approach that is both deeply sacred and immediately practical, clarifying what shadow work truly is—and just as crucially, what it is not.
Through her Advanced Shadow Work Method©, you’ll cultivate the perceptive “lens” that lets you spot shadow in your thoughts, emotions, patterns, and relationships the moment it arises. As this new awareness settles into your bones, you move from unconscious reaction to conscious authorship of your life—confidently decoding the messages behind every trigger, sensation, and behavior. The result is a radical re-orientation: you begin to meet yourself with compassion, nourish your unmet needs, and greet the world with an open, nurturing heart that accelerates genuine growth and soul-level evolution.
In short, Courtney’s Sparkshop doesn’t merely teach shadow work; it initiates you into a way of seeing that forever alters how you love, heal, and create your reality.
Courtney Keiser, MA, Shadow Alchemist & Trauma Specialist, Reiki Master, High Priestess, Former Psychotherapist
Courtney is a former trauma-informed psychotherapist who developed her own healing modality, The Advanced Shadow Work Method©, after finding traditional therapy often left clients with unresolved gaps. Drawing from her personal mystical journey and training as an initiated High Priestess of the Magdalena Rose Path, she integrates ancient esoteric wisdom with her clinical background. Through guided meditations and altered states of consciousness, she helps clients uncover deeply buried truths and transform trauma into growth. Courtney’s work is rooted in the belief that shadow work is ultimately light work—a path to self-love, healing, and true transformation.
Courtney is the author of, The Advanced Shadow Work Method: A Modern Holistic Approach to Healing Trauma & Building Self-Love, where she writes about her ground breaking approach to healing trauma and way of approaching shadow work that has transformed thousands of her client’s lives over the past six years. This book describes the creation of the approach and the details of each step to her methodology that will help you alchemize your shadows and transform your life in miraculous ways. You can purchase a copy of her book from this link.
Beginning in October she will be taking her workshop in person and on tour to a city maybe near you! Follow her socials and website to stay updated on tour dates and future events coming the end of 2025 and into 2026. Keep an eye out for her first woman’s retreat in 2026!

Courtney shares her groundbreaking shadow work methodology as a compass for identifying your unmet emotional needs—especially if you’ve never been taught how to name or meet them. Through a deeply trauma-informed lens, you’ll receive essential coping and grounding skills that serve as lifelines for showing up for yourself in ways that are healing, honest, and life-affirming. You’ll learn how to attune to your inner dialogue, transforming your self-talk into a powerful medicine that fosters lasting emotional safety and rewires old trauma patterns from the inside out.
Beyond healing, this series empowers you to protect your sacred space through the art of boundary setting—so that your expansion is not only possible, but protected. You’ll be guided to create an environment that honors your full presence, where you no longer tolerate contraction, silence, or suppression. In this space, ancestral and generational wounds begin to break and fall away, because they end with you. This is the journey of returning to your truth, embodying your worth, and rising fully into the space you were always meant to take up.

SPARKSHOP: Shadow Work is Light Work with Courtney Keiser (Part 1: Online) $20
Building The Lens to Perceive Shadow Work in a Helpful Way
Under the gentle yet penetrating guidance of Courtney Keiser—Shadow Alchemist & Trauma Specialist, former therapist —you will enter an Online Sparkshop series that demystifies shadow work and reveals why it is the most pivotal journey of self-transformation you can embark upon. Courtney distills a decade of clinical insight and mystical mastery into an approach that is both deeply sacred and immediately practical, clarifying what shadow work truly is—and just as crucially, what it is not.
Through her Advanced Shadow Work Method©, you’ll cultivate the perceptive “lens” that lets you spot shadow in your thoughts, emotions, patterns, and relationships the moment it arises. As this new awareness settles into your bones, you move from unconscious reaction to conscious authorship of your life—confidently decoding the messages behind every trigger, sensation, and behavior. The result is a radical re-orientation: you begin to meet yourself with compassion, nourish your unmet needs, and greet the world with an open, nurturing heart that accelerates genuine growth and soul-level evolution.
In short, Courtney’s Sparkshop doesn’t merely teach shadow work; it initiates you into a way of seeing that forever alters how you love, heal, and create your reality.

SPOTLIGHT: Mentorship: The Gift that Never Stops Giving with Joni $20
SPOTLIGHT: Mentorship: The Gift that Never Stops Giving with Joni $20
Change lives–starting with yours.
Mentorship can create an environment where young people can feel seen and supported, and build identity and a sense of belonging. Through mentorship, one becomes exposed to new ideas and opportunities to expand beyond their background or circumstances.
As a child of immigrants, Joni sought out mentors from an early age and was fortunate to find them at the Feminist Press and other women-led non-profit organizations. She remembers those women who fed her books, gave her tips on how to dress, cope with family dysfunction, sexism, and other professional and personal challenges, and how to care for herself at a very early age.
“My women mentors saved me from the street, and helped me in countless ways.” recounts Joni.
But mentoring not only saved her life. It helped her to find purpose and passion, decades after those teen years, when she lost everything.
Joni shares, “I lost my partner, my career, my home, and everything I spent a lifetime building. Becoming a mentor through Ninos del Lago, the Fresh Air Fund, the International Center of New York and, later the Pen America “Writing in the Schools” Program transformed my life. After losing myself, I found myself again when I was at a new low in my life.”
Wherever you are in your career, family life or stage of life, mentoring can help reconnect you with your sense of purpose – and passions – that may have long become a distant memory.
At a profound level, mentoring can help you connect with your divine feminine self in ways you could never have imagined.
In this workshop, we’ll explore the many ways mentoring can have a profound impact on your sense of sense – while also making a significant contribution to young people in your community. As well as enriching your connection with your family, friends, and colleagues.
Though exploratory, assessments and creative activities , you’ll re-discover your “Why” and sense of purpose, and chart a path to re-claiming your passion during the next chapter of your life.
Who knows, you may also discover yourself traveling to place you never dreamed of.
For women of any age whether you are seeking a mentor or looking to be a mentor. Or both.
This Workshop is especially designed for women who are going through a life transition. Be it an empty nest, career transition, or existential crisis.
Joni Daidone is a creative activist, writer, and curator living in Harlem/Hamilton Heights. She writes plays, short fiction, and prose poems as a way to connect to the divine and as a voice for the often-silenced feminine spirit. Her career spans roles as Global Creative Director, Multimedia Publishing Director, Art Gallery Owner/Artist Rep, Community Arts Activist, Non-Profit Branding and Fundraising Consultant and International Children’s Camp NGO Board Member. An ESL Writing Tutor and Mentor, she works with immigrants from over 26 countries. Leaving the corporate world and never looking back, she focuses on her lifelong passions: community activism, storytelling, skill-sharing, mentoring, and singing in a choir.
After 9/11 turned Joni’s career and life upside down, she became a relief worker with Ground Zero Temporary Housing securing shelter, temporary housing, meals, clothes and basic essentials for the thousands of emergency and relief works who traveled to NYC from across the country. After the initial crisis, she discovered a long term need. Supporting the immigrant population, particularly the Muslim, Arabic and Middle Eastern immigrants who became the target of xenophobia and racism. Since that time, Joni has mentored and tutored dozens of recent immigrants and at-risk youth through non-profit youth and immigrant rights organizations including the Fresh Air Fund, Covenant House, EPIC Youth Development, Pen America “Writing in the Schools” Program and The International Center of New York. She is also a frequent contributor to StoryCorps, The Moth, Open Mic and Storytelling Salons across NYC.

SPARKSHOP: How to Take Up Space & Own It: Breaking Ancestral & Generational Trauma Patterns with Courtney Keiser (Part 2: Online) $20
In this powerful ONLINE Sparkshop series, you will be lovingly guided by Courtney Keiser—renowned Shadow Alchemist & Trauma Specialist—into the courageous reclamation of your voice, your space, and your sovereignty. Together, you will explore what it truly means to take up space in your life, relationships, and sacred path, while unraveling the shadow patterns that arise when empowered women dare to no longer shrink.
Courtney shares her groundbreaking shadow work methodology as a compass for identifying your unmet emotional needs—especially if you’ve never been taught how to name or meet them. Through a deeply trauma-informed lens, you’ll receive essential coping and grounding skills that serve as lifelines for showing up for yourself in ways that are healing, honest, and life-affirming. You’ll learn how to attune to your inner dialogue, transforming your self-talk into a powerful medicine that fosters lasting emotional safety and rewires old trauma patterns from the inside out.
Beyond healing, this series empowers you to protect your sacred space through the art of boundary setting—so that your expansion is not only possible, but protected. You’ll be guided to create an environment that honors your full presence, where you no longer tolerate contraction, silence, or suppression. In this space, ancestral and generational wounds begin to break and fall away, because they end with you. This is the journey of returning to your truth, embodying your worth, and rising fully into the space you were always meant to take up.

Building The Lens to Perceive Shadow Work in a Helpful Way
Under the gentle yet penetrating guidance of Courtney Keiser—Shadow Alchemist & Trauma Specialist, former therapist —you will enter an Online Sparkshop series that demystifies shadow work and reveals why it is the most pivotal journey of self-transformation you can embark upon. Courtney distills a decade of clinical insight and mystical mastery into an approach that is both deeply sacred and immediately practical, clarifying what shadow work truly is—and just as crucially, what it is not.
Through her Advanced Shadow Work Method©, you’ll cultivate the perceptive “lens” that lets you spot shadow in your thoughts, emotions, patterns, and relationships the moment it arises. As this new awareness settles into your bones, you move from unconscious reaction to conscious authorship of your life—confidently decoding the messages behind every trigger, sensation, and behavior. The result is a radical re-orientation: you begin to meet yourself with compassion, nourish your unmet needs, and greet the world with an open, nurturing heart that accelerates genuine growth and soul-level evolution.
In short, Courtney’s Sparkshop doesn’t merely teach shadow work; it initiates you into a way of seeing that forever alters how you love, heal, and create your reality.

Building The Lens to Perceive Shadow Work in a Helpful Way
Under the gentle yet penetrating guidance of Courtney Keiser—Shadow Alchemist & Trauma Specialist, former therapist —you will enter an Online Sparkshop series that demystifies shadow work and reveals why it is the most pivotal journey of self-transformation you can embark upon. Courtney distills a decade of clinical insight and mystical mastery into an approach that is both deeply sacred and immediately practical, clarifying what shadow work truly is—and just as crucially, what it is not.
Through her Advanced Shadow Work Method©, you’ll cultivate the perceptive “lens” that lets you spot shadow in your thoughts, emotions, patterns, and relationships the moment it arises. As this new awareness settles into your bones, you move from unconscious reaction to conscious authorship of your life—confidently decoding the messages behind every trigger, sensation, and behavior. The result is a radical re-orientation: you begin to meet yourself with compassion, nourish your unmet needs, and greet the world with an open, nurturing heart that accelerates genuine growth and soul-level evolution.
In short, Courtney’s Sparkshop doesn’t merely teach shadow work; it initiates you into a way of seeing that forever alters how you love, heal, and create your reality.
