You notice it before anyone else does.

The shift in the room.
The tightness in someone’s voice.
The silence that means something’s wrong.

So you adjust.

You soften your tone.
You explain more.
You fix, smooth, reframe, lighten.
You swallow what you were about to say because now isn’t the time.

And just like that, the temperature drops.
Everyone exhales.

Except you.

Because somewhere along the way, you learned that you are the one who keeps things steady.
At home.
At work.
In every group you’re part of.

Not because anyone asked you to.
But because you can.
And because it feels easier than letting things fall apart.

Here’s the thing most people never name:

When you’re the emotional thermostat, you stop knowing what you actually feel.
You become responsible for everyone else’s comfort—
and quietly resentful that no one seems to notice the cost.

Campfyre Collective exists for people who are ready to step out of that role.

Not by becoming colder.
Not by caring less.
But by learning how to stay grounded in yourself without managing everyone else’s emotions.

This is coaching for people who are done being the stabilizer, the mediator, the calm one—
and are ready to experience relationships and work that don’t require self-erasure.

The next Campfyre Collective group begins meeting January 6th.
Applications are open now and close December 31st.

You don’t have to decide yet.
But here’s what I know from experience:

The moment you decide, the change starts.
Your nervous system relaxes.
Your choices shift.
You stop rehearsing how to keep the peace—and start imagining what it would feel like to belong without performing.

If this is speaking to you, I invite you to apply now.

You don’t have to carry the emotional weather anymore.
There’s another way—and you don’t have to find it alone.

Campfyre Collective is a year of coaching in community with other former gifted-kids turned witchy women who are ready to stop rejecting the most powerful parts of themselves in 2026 so they can finally live the life that makes THEM happy, instead of everybody else not mad.
