I changed my victim mindset

"During the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program I was able to change my victim mindset and embrace taking control of my life in every manner. This has been such an exciting step for me and I am totally loving moving forward. As a result, I am looking forward to putting my knowledge and experience into living a luscious life and starting my own business venture, knowing that I have a better chance of achieving great results than I would have before."

My unique soul intelligence, experience, wisdom and understanding grew and evolved

“I initially resisted enrolling in the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program as I could not see how I could be a healer. I would dream of doors shutting me out and struggling with a door not letting me through.

While online one day, I ‘accidentally’ arrived 5 mins before Franchelle’s webinar, ‘Avoid Healers Burnout’ was about to start. With this signpost, I enrolled two days before the New Moon when the program was due to begin.

As soon as I enrolled in the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© all the doubts, concerns, dreams of struggling with doors disappeared. I stepped into the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program celebrating, honouring and upholding those who have walked this path before me, those in front of me and those to follow.

Prior to beginning this program my life and environment has always been, and is full of knowing ‘a world which is never spoken of, but revered’.

Within the sacred container of the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program and in collaboration with the First Light Flower Essences of New Zealand® healers teacher plant essences, my unique soul intelligence, experience, wisdom and understanding grew and evolved. I am now able to know, understand and communicate with wisdom that which is seeking to be revealed.

The Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© turned my world upside down, inside out and I am forever changed. I loved this program as it was all about ME. And with the empowerment of ME, my world benefited and my relationships with others continue to flourish.

With knowing, experiencing, understanding and wisdom of my unique soul truths, I am able to make decisions that resonate on a cellular level and gift peace and right relationships on all levels and layers of my world. From this place of wholeness, I am able to attract all that I seek.

Though the biggest challenge for me was time, I enrolled in the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© to learn and to maximise my investment. I invited Spirit to be “First”.

There were many moments, and time flew out the door when I experienced those connections and linkages. I would absolutely recommend this program.”

It helped me to really trust myself

"I had been interested in shamanic studies for a while and I was searching so many places to find one that resonated. I finally came across the Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® and felt called to start with the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program.

I felt super aligned with everything I saw on the website and the program felt perfect, but I had a concern if the program was really what it seemed. And the other thing I was worried about was if it would really be something that I could learn from. I meditated and asked the questions that were on my mind and I felt very clear.

Before undertaking this program, I had a lot of fears around what my strengths and gifts were metaphysically and what would happen if I opened to them. Now I feel much more confident and excited and naturally just tuned in.

I was able to see a lot of parts of me that I was hiding from and also different areas of my life where I was still holding onto things. The First Light Flower Essences of New Zealand® healers teacher plants that I was working with during this program were an incredible blessing for me. I feel more vibrant and I literally look younger. My relationships are more fulfilling.

One challenge I had during the program was feeling like I was not doing it right and I kept questioning myself. Then I just realized that there was no perfect way to do things and to just tune in and feel into the energy. Then I felt like it was more easeful because I was trusting that how I was doing things was perfect for me.

I am so grateful and feel so blessed that I was able to be part of this program. It helped me to see deeper parts of myself and to really trust myself."

I now have more energy, confidence and I became more creative with my gifts

“Doing the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program helped me recognise myself as a healer and to stop seeing myself as separate from healers or healing. I saw myself that way even though I was a qualified health professional at the time.

It helped me develop confidence in my abilities, and I was able to begin creating a meaningful financial base and to start building my foundations based on my skills.

I now have more energy, confidence and I became more creative with my gifts, and my own unique way of utilising my healing modalities.

I developed deeper more meaningful relationships with others and the quality of my existing relationships was enhanced. I was able to give more of myself to relationships because it was safer for me to give more.

This program took me through a process of great professional development and success in my chosen field as a natural health practitioner.

Doing this program soothed my soul at the deepest level; it brought peace and light into places that had not been able to be expressed or felt. My ability to have a vision for myself and manifest that vision became possible.

The one main thing I have realised about the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program is that it is still happening - I'm still on the path of the healer, learning, growing and evolving as a result of undertaking the rites of passage of the healer.

I know this momentum and growth is entirely due to the teacher plants and the magical process that occurs as a result of following the structure of this program - it creates within us a new world of possibility - infinite and growing alongside us at all times. I'm so grateful for this.”

Freedom, lightness and strength

“Undertaking the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program has been a journey that brought me many gifts. One of these is the sense of freedom I now experience thanks to the healing and letting go of energetic stuff that held me in certain ways of being and thinking. With this freedom comes lightness, strength and greater capacities.

I wear many hats, the hat of a mother, a transpersonal coach, a flower essence practitioner, a disability support worker, a child carer, and a child of Papatuanuku. Each role is one of service. Before undertaking the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program I worked mainly from my personality as a sensitive Piscean, not always clear as to what was mine and what was another person’s or, what was the energetic nature of my surroundings. Consequently I could take on other people’s problems or take things personally. Now I have gained knowledge and developed capacity in the necessary skills to be effective in my roles without it being of detriment to myself. My energy is constant and my boundaries clearer.

Another gift has been to come to experience the importance of my soul in my role as healer and woman in service to others. I now value the role my soul has as I wear my many hats and realise its connection to our natural world and the greater energetic matrix we are inseparable from.

Undertaking this year long program that requires some self discipline to do what is required initially had me questioning can I fit this in? I am now finding I miss the rhythm and routine of following a programme that links me in with the rhythm of the day, the Luna cycles and mother nature.

Another gift has been the creating of my personal healers story. This has given me a beautiful reference tool to remind me of where I have come from, where I am now and where I am going.

The interactive Medicine Woman online school has been great and that is coming from someone who has had trouble studying remotely before. I loved receiving new information each month, digesting it and seeing how it relates to me and my situations, leading to expansion of who I am with new ideas and understanding.”

I am feeling truly more connected

"Totally magical experience. The Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program was the journey of self discovery to my full potential in this life time and how to take the work out into the world. I am feeling truly more connected and sensitive to the sacred, to the Earth, to myself on the Earth."

My light is shining brighter with a radiance of clarity

“The Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© has truly been a life transforming and magical journey exposing many hidden buried treasures within my holistic being, those treasures were always there just waiting for the right time to be revealed through an awakening and each beautiful healer’s teacher plant essence in their uniqueness activated the magic of necessary change, as a soul I was ready to embrace with grace their wisdom.

As a result of stepping up and embracing this program I don't look back, life up till now has been rejuvenated and embraced in my magical weaving of a colourful tapestry that is ever evolving in my new dance of life.

I feel my light is shining brighter with a radiance of clarity, I know where I am going and being solely in charge and responsible for every aspect of my multidimensional being is so very exciting. I have begun my own healing practice from home and have also been asked to be a part of a new crystal shop in town. The magic has begun, I feel aligned with my craft and journey of my blueprint.

For the most part of my life I was always trying to fit in even if it was uncomfortable, I would lose my sense of identity in relationships, always giving my power away to another or outside influences not really knowing or feeling that I belonged anywhere.

Through this exceptional program I now have the necessary tools in my Kete and know how to draw on them through the taught soul qualities, disciplines and ancient wisdom of each of the powerful energetic qualities of each teacher plant essence. There has been a monumental shift with my consciousness.

The commitment I made to the program required a shift within my discipline practices around finances and time management with my employment. I would fear I wouldn't have enough money and now the shift in consciousness has brought abundance.

It took me some time to get my head around the new concept for me of studying in a virtual classroom. I have been used to being in a physical classroom with a tutor on site, I feel very blessed and thankful for this new concept and way of learning, this opportunity has enabled me to open my mind & challenge old mind sets making way for change.

To be totally honest this process has brought my relationship with self into a deeper level of self awareness and mastery. My relationship with each individual healers teacher plant essence and learning the language of spirit through my multidimensional self has dismantled many mind sets.

My favourite things about the online program: Right from the beginning I felt like I was on this amazing magical mystery tour that was going to transform my life, I was hungry for change, I was ready and open for that special energy of a life changing elixir.

My chariot had been ready for some time just waiting for me to get out of my own way and say yes here is the opportunity for change, get on board and buckle yourself in the time is now.

The new moon of each lunar cycle was exciting for me as I knew meeting a new teacher plant essence was going to bring new growth, I welcomed with love and respect the wonderful new challenges I would face and the beautiful sacred soul qualities that would emerge.

I really enjoyed with each rite of passage designing my Healers Necklace, this was something entirely new for me, I enjoyed bringing out my creative skills.

The dark of the moon phase in the lunar month was very special for me, the storytelling aspect allowed my creative mind to be free and connect with that magical, mystical scribe that had needed to write without restriction of the critical mind.

Like a dance through the expression of words weaving my craft through my soul brought healing in abundance, looking back through my journal brings tears of great joy and feelings of immense love.

The Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program would have to be the most powerful life transforming journey I have ever undertaken, it is definitely not for the faint hearted, I feel so very blessed to have been a part of an exceptional program with the loving support of Franchelle, the school fairy, other fellow travellers and all the sacred healers teacher plant essences. Love in abundance.

It has up-levelled my work with clients hugely

"I have been on a spiritual path for quite some time and working as a coach quite therapeutically, as well as doing a lot of my own healing. Throughout all of this I persistently had unanswered questions and was looking for guidance. After talking to a friend who has done a lot of study with a Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies®, I realised that the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program was a wonderful fit. It was an overnight and very unexpected decision!

This program solidified and clarified many understandings and experiences that I have had in relation to Spirit and the metaphysical. It has up-levelled my work with clients hugely. It has enabled me to do some powerful healing and become stronger in myself emotionally and energetically, as well as feel more connected to Spirit and the support around me – particularly of course from my esteemed healers teacher plants.

I feel I’ve reached a new level of flow through all areas of my life. I look forward to embarking on another Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® program in the near future."

Karen Ross

I felt unconditional love

"I loved the 12 months of the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies©. The 12 healers teacher plants are truly remarkable. This was the first time in my life that I felt unconditional love as strongly as if it was from a person, as soon as I took the first three drops. The journey with these healers teacher plants feels like a lifetime ago and yet each one is right there beside me, supporting me on each step I take."

A range of skills that are applicable in my daily life

“The skills and knowledge I've gained from the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program have become invaluable to me in daily life.

I have a new-found awareness of how all living things are energetically connected and how by changing my energy creates a flow-on effect in my reality and beyond.

The teachings and practices I've learned are simple but not always easy to master yet are also complex as they fit like puzzle pieces into the greater matrix of our universe. I found the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program to be a brilliant, enlightening and inspiring program that awakens the soul and brings incredible transformation. Looking back, I can see I had a basic awareness of spiritual and energetic matters, but my learning had been somewhat haphazard.

The Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program provided a logical progression of knowledge and skills to practice, enabling me to build a solid understanding along with a range of skills that are applicable in daily life. Creating sacred space, re-calibrating my energy and practicing neutrality are my three favourite skills I use daily.

I had some concerns over whether I had enough knowledge in this area and whether the program would be too advanced for me. I resolved this by reading everything about the program several times, also reading the FAQ's and testimonials and came to the conclusion that what I did know was relevant to being able to do the program, so I joined.

I enjoyed Franchelle's videos and found I had to pause them often in order to take notes as they contained so much information.

The program taught me terms or names for different things I had experienced but didn't know what they were e.g. creating sacred space. It also gave me sound teachings in these areas.

I enjoyed learning and practicing the skills for each teacher plant. I also enjoyed how my daily life lessons and life events synchronized and brought new awareness to the teachings of that month's teacher plant. It was amazing how relevant these life experiences were to the month's teachings and how much they allowed for a greater understanding of the subtleties of the teacher plant skills and wisdom.

I feel calmer, wiser and more empowered

"The path of learning from the great Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© teacher plants has been a journey of a lifetime. A journey to look inward and find the truth of my soul. I can clearly see how over these few years my life is enriched by bringing me closer and closer to a life of connection to the great Oneness. On an everyday level also I feel calmer, wiser and more empowered and able to offer my best to the varied situations of my life. Each month I look forward to the wonderful journeying and insights and lessons that challenge me yet will step me up vibrationally more and more as healer and as a human. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else in my spiritual life at this time. It is a great mission to be a part of and I feel privileged to be a Medicine Woman apprentice."

My soul’s ticket

“When I signed up for Healers Studies, I really had no idea what it was all about. It was like buying a season pass to the fairground without knowing what rides you have signed up for. It was my soul’s ticket to a fairground of discovery, recovery and reinvention.”

Adriana Bullock
Sage and Spiritual Emissary, Taupo, New Zealand

It works on a very deep level

“The Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© is a truly unique program. I am so glad that I discovered it. It works on a very deep level.

This program completely deepened my awareness of how much healing is needed on this planet. The planetary transformation work we do in this program is incredible, and I believe it brings results. Personally, my life feels more magical and more connected.

Before I enrolled the cost and time commitment were my main concerns. It took me a while to enrol and the cost was easier to manage because my household finances improved. The time commitment can still present a challenge but I do the work in earnest and try my best. So far I have always managed to succeed and complete what I have signed up for and do my best.

I undertook the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© during Covid, so my entire experience of leaving the clinic I was working in, and graduating from my Master's program and passing ALL my (6) board exams was all during this program.

I had challenges getting through some months with my teacher plants, but the whole time I realized that they were with me, leading the way.

The ending of the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© healer's rites of passage corresponded with a dramatic improvement in my health and wellness. I had found a new therapy to help me with my back pain. I was for a long time completely blocked from getting relief from pain in a real and sustainable way.

The end of the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program also corresponded with big movements in terms of feeling like I can take a step forward with my passions in life.

Also my relationships are much richer, and I have healed a very important relationship during this program.

By the end of the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program I found myself being able to reflect deeper. I returned to balance and equilibrium. I experienced a lot of resolution in many areas of my life with family relationships and etc.

I now want to do the 2-year Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies© program.”

I was able to release the grip of the past

“This was my second time undertaking the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program. My first experience was in 2012. Each month, my relationship with the teacher plants deepened, and I built upon my previous understanding and knowledge. I was able to gain greater insights from my day to day experiences.

I have built upon the knowledge I already had, and my capacity to make changes, big or small, are achievable.

I was able to see events unfold from a different perspective, and to release the grip of the past, and move through challenges with greater awareness and insight.

I can see the benefit of undertaking the Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® programs and the depth of insight that I have gained through each and every experience.

Thank you so much Franchelle, and everyone on the team, that make these programs possible and accessible, worldwide.”

Elizabeth Marino

My energy is strong

“Undertaking the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© program allowed me to create space for my Healer self in my everyday life and I began to embody the Healer that I am and had spent years studying to be.

Through this program I was able to connect with the gnosis that what I had to offer was helpful and useful and of value. It also enabled me to connect with the fact that I’d always been a Healer, that it is part of who I am and it just took a while for my personality to catch up with that reality.

I had a habit of undermining my wisdom and knowing by saying ‘but, I don’t know’ after I’d just shared profound insights and enlightened wisdom to my clients. Through doing this program, I have stopped doing that so much.

I was able to slow down in my daily life, slow down to the pulse of the Earth and realised that when I did this I got more done. I was able to be more present and aware of the nature around me, even if it was just a pot plant!

I already had my qualifications as a Naturopath and Medical Herbalist, but had yet to fully step into the role of Healer with the Spiritual gifts and protections that this program uncovered for me.

Before doing this program, my boundaries were not as strong as they needed to be, and my desire to help clouded the way I could be useful to my clients. An example of this was when I had a client who was an insomniac with a complicated case history. I woke up during the night and couldn’t stop thinking about her and was churning over issues in my head all night. I saw her the next day when she came to pick up something and told me she’d had the best night’s sleep she’d ever remembered having! That was a real lesson for me with the healer's teacher plant First Light Flower Essences of New Zealand® No 87 Maire Tawake - Autonomy, that I worked with as part of my Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Program©.

Prior to that, I had researched how to protect my space and stop that happening but hadn’t been able to actually stop it from happening until I met the healers teachers plants and was taken through the rites of passage that gave me the skills to be able to do this effectively and consciously.

During this program I became a lot more mindful of being a conduit and not so invested in my clients progress. I always wanted to do my best, but it is not helpful to feel invested in another’s healing. Learning how to be continually responsive, objective, neutral and empathic has been invaluable in my practice and to my clients.

I am now able to be 110% with my clients in our consultation and very clear when I have finished my work with them. My time limits are now firmer and my energy strong."

New strength

"The Medicine Woman Certificate in Advanced Shamanic Studies^© enabled me to engage in life with open eyes and understand that every experience is an opportunity for truth and growth. I have found new strength and courage to face what has to be faced and having the resources within to do so."

Elizabeth Marino

Total transformation

"Undertaking the Medicine Woman Certificate in Advanced Shamanic Studies^© program helped me to experience the total transformation of my mind and my life. I am able to see life experiences through the eyes of a master shaman. I have gained strength in all areas which allows me to be a valuable team member in any role I choose. I walk the path also as an occupational therapist and this training allows me to help people on a deeper level.

I have experienced changes on every level of my life, as a mother, as a wife, as a friend, work colleague. My business has flourished and I am now developing workshops and expansion on every level of my life. My life has truly become magical. I meet/draw people too me that require my help - this is always a two-way exchange. I have now run my first retreat. I am in the throws of planning more. My life has changed for the better. I feel more solid as a person and lack fear. This journey is truly transformational."

More clarity

"From undertaking the Medicine Woman Certificate in Advanced Shamanic Studies^© program, I have more clarity about my spiritual direction which in turn has influenced tangible actions. It has helped me take risks I previously didn't have the confidence to take, and connected me to the master teacher plants and the land in a much deeper way.

Going through this program was a clearing out of old ways of being and transformed me into being more present with myself. Not only has it drawn me back on track with my musical path, it has also helped me make changes in my life to move out of stale routines to embrace new ways of life courageously."

Sarah Spence

A dynamic purposeful exciting life

"The greatest benefit for me in undertaking the Medicine Woman Certificate in Advanced Shamanic Studies^© program has been the validation that I am not a 'square peg in a round hole' - my greatest strength is my 'uniqueness'. I developed the strength and courage to believe and trust in my unique decisions, live a dynamic purposeful exciting life, and see the extraordinary in the ordinary."

Peggy Rangi

Profoundly transformative and deeply healing

“For me undertaking the Medicine Woman Certificate in Advanced Shamanic Studies^© program has been profoundly transformative and deeply healing. Working with each master teacher plant one on one throughout the lunar cycle allowed me to gain a greater understanding of each teacher plant’s individual lessons and capacities - both therapeutically and spiritually - while cementing my own sacred relationship with the master teacher plants. They are indeed my allies.

Passing through the 24 sacred rites of passage of the master shaman has unpicked and rewoven the very fabric of who I am. The whole program was like a complete upgrade, shedding and reset. It was hard. A lot harder mentally and emotionally than I thought it would be. However the master teacher plants gave me the tools I needed as I confronted all that was being brought up for me to learn and heal, transmute and transcend…. which was a lot! They helped me get energetically strong and shielded and grounded. They helped me to step deeper into my true cosmic self and realign with my sacred role on Earth, giving me much needed skills and a greater capacity in myself going forward on my mission.

After publishing my survival memoir I found stripping myself bare in print, giving author talks and interviews, dealing with social media, and connecting with many hundreds of women about their horror stories took a tremendous toll on my mental health and equilibrium. I became overwhelmed with the enormity of the uphill battle to make a positive difference in the world. I was disillusioned, drained, anxious, and stressed.

Even though I’d done many years of personal healing and deep spiritual work, and educated myself so much on shamanic, energetic, and natural medicine, I lost the peace and inner stability I’d worked so hard for. I lost my grace and equilibrium. I could no longer handle pressure or contain or control my emotions, and a deep hidden rage and resentment began to bubble up and pour out of me. I wasn’t coping. I felt disconnected and discombobulated. I couldn’t go on as I was.

I knew I needed to come home to myself. So I enrolled in the Medicine Woman Certificate in Advanced Shamanic Studies©. I was worried about the cost but I took a leap of faith. It was the best decision I could have made. The content and lessons are life changing. I love the format and how easily accessible and user friendly the Medicine Woman online school is to navigate. It feels like such a beautiful and safe sacred space even though it’s online. I love the support from Franchelle and the classroom elders on the journey and the extra resources available too.

This program helped me consciously work through long-held pain and fears that were holding me back. I felt nurtured and supported the whole way and have come through it feeling whole, strong, and purposeful, with greater clarity and direction within myself and my place in the world 100% comfortable with who I am.

Completing the Medicine Woman Certificate in Advanced Shamanic Studies© helped me reclaim my self and surrender to the path of spirit with unwavering trust and commitment. I stand in my power as a Medicine Woman Rainbow Warrior of Peace and Master Shamaness.

I am eternally grateful for this opportunity and journey. Much aroha”

Simonne Butler

Deep inner peace

"I have strengthened myself in the world, the role that I am to play and contribution that I can give to others. Trusting myself and my deep inner knowing. Following and upholding the Truth always. By completing the Medicine Woman Certificate in Advanced Shamanic Studies^© program, I have experienced deep inner peace that I can hold within myself even when the outside world seems in turmoil."

Amanda Hookham

I am living life to the full

"I have gained confidence and certainty and I have lost self-doubt. My consciousness has expanded and I have an indomitable will and spiritual endurance. I have experienced a complete reversal and died to my old self. I have let go of many limiting traits, habits and beliefs. I am loving the wholistic emergence of parts of myself that were repressed. I am living life to the full with a deep gnosis of limitlessness and total faith. I am stronger yet gentler, fiercer yet more compassionate.

I have infinite gratitude to the sacred master teacher plants that I met on the Medicine Woman Certificate in Advanced Shamanic Studies^© journey and to Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber who have given me this magnificent life-changing opportunity."

Chris Griffiths
Registered Nurse, New Zealand

This program is life changing!

"I have completed all of the Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® programs and thoroughly enjoyed them. They are so rewarding and I gain so much on so many levels. The last program I did was the Medicine Woman Rite of the Twelve Celestial Regents© which blew my mind and I knew that Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© would be no exception.

Initially the cost was a consideration, and I knew from previous programs that there would be a commitment to doing the rituals, but I saw the development of better discipline as part of the program.

Doing this program has had a huge impact on me internally. I made a lot of tangible gains. Being linked into and working with such mighty cosmic energies was unbelievable. I feel more healthy and I definitely made gains in terms of relationships.

This program is life changing!”

Steven Lydford

I feel more love

"I have enrolled in the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program because I have completed all Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® programs and this was a natural progression to carry on with my deep interest in the Medicine Woman studies.

I feel different. It was not an easy few months, I learnt much about myself and what I really need in my life, and what I don't want. In the last month of the program working with the zodiacal sign of Pisces, I moved into a house and out of the campervan, after 19 months living in very substandard conditions. I haven't lived in a house for probably about 8 year. The biggest challenges in the program was the seemingly obscure nature of it and the general nature of esoteric writing. But I resolved these challenges by keeping on going through the program; contemplating and working towards the goals to achieve the best I could.

I feel more love, I feel my feminine side more than I have felt in the past. It is interesting the books that came forward to be read during the course of my program, all seemed to enhance the experience by pointing out things that directly related to the program.”

Helen Francis

I healed myself and I met my true self

“I have done all the other Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® programs and enrolling onto the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program was a natural progression for me.

As a healer, I now feel more confident in my role as a trusted guide to those on the healing and transformational pathways of life. I have been to many places in the metaphysical realms thanks to these programs and shown up to the very best of my ability. I have tools, maps and insights now that I can share with others to support them as they enter the mystery.

I have completed the program and it continues to work its magic. I feel that this program prepared me for one of the most significant upgrades in consciousness that I have experienced so far. In other words, I’m still emerging from the profound alterative and transcendent impact of this program. It feels very, very liberating and I know that more will always be revealed.

I healed myself and I met my true self. This means that my true self can begin to be revealed.

During the program, there were some months that brought up unresolved pain and exposed dark areas of my psyche and consciousness. These types of experiences can be challenging and painful but they have always delivered the gold! I managed the challenges by sharing them with a trusted friend and being honest about what was happening for me. This was also very healing and built trust and love more deeply into my matrix.

Being given access to the materials and practices in this program is life changing. My life can never be the same again because I am not the same person who stepped onto this pathway. I am still discovering who this new person is and I am able to do that with confidence and courage. Thank you.”

Lynda Earl
Holistic Practitioner

I feel deeply blessed to have been on this journey

“I have had a longstanding interest in ritual practice and a personal practice that I had cobbled together from various books. I had long sought a teaching system that could help me solidify and deepen my ritual practice. I found it here in the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program.

I had a few limiting beliefs around my capacity to enrol in this program. Cost and time commitment being the two that made me hesitant. Having previously completed the Medicine Woman Certificate in Healers Studies© and the Medicine Woman Rite of the Twelve Celestial Regents© programs I didn’t hesitate for long. I knew that the divine nature of the teachings available through the Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® was incomparably powerful.

This journey through the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© has guided me through the sacred practice of conducting rituals helping me to form deep, lasting relationships with the cycles of life – both celestial and personal.

The nature of this program prompted me to build into every day, time for my spiritual, emotional, and physical wellbeing. This has created lasting change in the inner stillness that I experience and has allowed me to improve my business practice consequently.

Initially fitting the program into my daily schedule that is already full of responsibilities to children, two jobs and volunteer work, seemed arduous but I soon realised that the benefits gained from applying myself daily to these teachings benefits everyone in my whanau, family. I am calmer, more focused, and better able to ask for help.

I recommend these programmes to many of the clients I see and in fact, my tane, husband, participated in the Medicine Woman Rite of the Six Moons© at my suggestion.

I now work with Eighth Ray magic rituals daily as an act of service and self-care. This practice keeps me centred, grounded, and connected to the divine feminine who takes care of all of us.

I feel deeply blessed to have been on this journey and I know that all that I have gained from this will continue to benefit me, my whanau, family, and my clients for years to come.”

Erihapeti Elizabeth McPherson
Healer, Collingwood, New Zealand

For me, this program was the pinnacle of years of learning

"My years of spiritual training had resulted in dedicating my life to service, and walking the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© pathway has strengthened that resolve and given me access to infinite skills. Being of service now takes on a whole new perspective.

The changes have been subtle, yet profound. I feel fully empowered and capable of working in an alchemical way and am daring to acknowledge that I can play a very significant part in planetary awakening.

Undertaking this program has left me spiritually uplifted. Neutrality is becoming a way of life as is the understanding that I can choose where to focus my attention and prevent outer circumstances ruffling my waters. This seems to magnetise to me people who search for meaning to life. I see that my health is improving with increased energy levels, physical strength and stamina - a welcome boost as more clients seem to be appearing.

The biggest challenge for me during the program was the amount of time to be spent on the program. I knew that the more focus I gave to the work and the reflective practice, the more I would benefit. The rewards were so great that I began to really look forward to and enjoy reviewing the lunar phases and answering the questions in the online school. It was the reflective practice that, for me, led to the deep gnosis and wisdom and I have continued to do this with day to day life, knowing that is where my lessons lie.

For me, this program was the pinnacle of years of learning. This program has changed my life. I am empowered, enriched and enthused as I experience everything through clearer eyes and previously unknown levels of acceptance and gratitude. This was truly a path back home and I feel honoured to be welcomed back as a member of the Great Fellowship.”

I am more self aware and open to change

"As a result of undertaking the program, I am more self aware and open to change. Even if the change does not appear to be an easy process, I understand that when I engage in the gifts I have, then life has an opportunity to unfold in accordance with my destiny.

I was able to look at my spirituality, health, career, finances and relationships objectively, take them apart and see the areas where I could make changes, even if the task seemed surmountable at the time. I was able to make small steps some days and greater strides on other days. I learnt to tune into the energy of what was taking place on the day, and to maximise the experience for a greater outcome.

I started this program with wonder and I completed this program with wonder, because even though I have learnt so much about myself and how I relate in the world, I know that I can continue to grow and mature this knowing, and bring about change not only for myself, but to also purpose good in the world.

I would absolutely recommend this program to anyone that is open to learning more about who they are, what is holding them back in their life and who would like to create a more dynamic relationship within themselves, and with those that they meet in their life.

I am very grateful for the opportunity to experience the life changing programs that are offered to us in the Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies®."

I now have freedom to be all that I was born to be

"I was resistant to enrol in the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program; however; every night in dream time I would dream I was alone; the last one in the line; left behind; lonely; doors shutting me out. I was gifted a reading by a clairvoyant and all cards had books! I got fed up with being left behind and lonely at night in my dreams and so I enrolled in the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program. There were no more dreams of being left behind.

I realised that what was blocking me joining the program initially was my ignorance, narrow minded vision and inability to communicate and translate spirit with clarity, faith and trust. Once I enrolled; the abundance of the universe was revealed and the law of attraction applied.

Before doing this program, I was not believing in myself: I would seek others’ opinions; and then rely on and follow their perceived direction. Within this program I acquired a higher level of self-realisation that empowered me to release the shackles that bound me to the ignorance, resulting from accepting the limitations of appearance as being all there is.

I now KNOW: there are many pathways to manifest that which my heart desires. A room full of love has no space for negativity. A vision full of wishes, dreams and joy has no space available for doubt.

I now have freedom to be all that I was born to be. My life changed on a cellular consciousness level with universal magic that awoke my divine purpose as I was invited to discover the deeper secrets of the great word of power that is 'relationship’.

I have acquired a higher level of appreciation for all that I am and have. I have knowing that whatever my heart desires with right relationships; there are energies, vibrations and frequencies perpetually omnipresent and ever ready to come to my assistance. With that knowing: I am able to stand and express my truth for others to grow and evolve."

I have healed parts of myself that I couldn’t previously reach

“I have studied with Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber and Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® for many years and have always found the results to be life changing and empowering. So I knew that the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program would follow on as a higher octave from the previous programs I have done.

Initially I had hesitancy in costs and level of availability in daily life to fit it in. I knew this program would require my full attention and briefly considered whether I would be up to the work required. I overcame these concerns quickly as I had a knowing that this program was what I was to do. Being an online program took away any travel costs. This training brought a structure to my day, week and month cycles, which I found very motivating to follow with structured time frames to keep me focused, disciplined and organised.

The benefits of completing the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program have been profound. I am so much more connected to my Soul and my Centre. I have healed parts of myself that I couldn’t previously reach, my knowledge and insights of astrology and depth of information is now infused within and I have a stronger deeper connection to my relationship with personality, soul and spirit.

I now can bring myself to my Centre immediately, stand neutral, know what that feels like to be operating from, which gives me guidance and answers from anywhere I am and for any situation requiring higher vision.

I have learnt how to be in relationship with Soul. I have gained direction, connection, truth. I am mostly at ease with situations in daily life that occur and can bring myself back to a neutral centre so much quicker. I am hearing much clearer in my connection to Spirit which gives me a peace within knowing I am protected and guided perfectly, in Divine timing.

This program has given me a sense of stability, and my income continues to flow freely as required. I have gained greater levels of trust.”

Took me to a very deep spiritual place that I did not know existed within me

“I have been a student of the Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® for a number of years and have participated sequentially in all the programs offered. Enrolling in the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program was the natural next step on my spiritual journey. I knew at a soul level this was the next step in my spiritual and personal development.

There was a financial consideration when investing in this program, however, as I had participated in previous Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® programs I was confident that I would find the money and create the time necessary for the program. This turned out to be the case and the investment has been well worth it.

Some of the challenges I experienced during the program were ensuring the daily ritual was performed, meditations were listened to and journal entries were kept up to date. I was able to resolve these challenges, as well as painful emotions that surfaced during the program, by calling on the energies of the particular zodiacal sign, planet and mansion of life I was working with. Calling on the wisdom and help of this energy kept me on track when the going was tough.

Also having the company and inspiration of fellow Medicine Woman travellers in the Medicine Woman online classroom was so very helpful and supportive. Reading about other people’s experiences and reading uplifting comments was very reassuring. I also found linking in with The Celestial Compendium card deck enormously helpful and enlightening as well as watching the incredible videos and reading the written content that is provided as part of the program that is full of magic and is totally spellbinding.

As a result of this program, my spiritual practice is much more grounded and is being expressed in daily life. I feel more at ease within myself and able to express who I am with more ease and confidence. I am more committed to expanding my horizons both personally, professionally and spiritually.

This program taught me that I can be disciplined and committed to performing daily ritual as well as dedicating time and effort to writing in the online journal. I was successful in finding the time, motivation and dedication to adhere to the program’s structure and requirements. This showed me what I am capable of in many aspects of my life that I didn’t know I was capable of.

The Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program took me to a very deep spiritual place that I did not know existed within me. Working alchemically and magically enabled me to know myself better at a very deep level which is proving to be life changing. From this place I can find and maintain a place of neutrality from where I can purpose good in the world. I have found that life has flowed with more ease and I am naturally in the right place at the right time. I have let a lot of old beliefs and baggage go and I feel lighter and clearer on all levels. Life has become more love filled and magical and attuned to cosmic power.

Having journeyed to the centre of love this program has gifted me a more heart felt and compassionate relationship with myself and others. I have become more loving. I lead a more soul and spirit led life and this has transformed my relationship with myself and with others which is so very heartening.

I feel incredibly grateful and blessed to have had the opportunity to complete this program at this time. It has certainly been an archetypal hero’s journey and I have come through the journey very well equipped with cosmic power and cosmic love to meet the challenges of 21st century life.”

Spiritually I feel a new depth of support

“I felt drawn to do the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program as I am interested in the ritual and alchemical work. It felt very much like the right thing for me to be doing this program.

Although I had sporadically done rituals in the past, I felt it was important to do the ritual work in a structured way, with definitive outcomes and goals.

During the program one of the challenges initially was around having a dedicated space to work in uninterrupted, which was resolved by setting strong boundaries with my family.

As a result of undertaking this program I am feeling more committed to my spiritual pathway. I feel a connection and understanding of the planets, the zodiacal signs and the mansions of life.

Spiritually I feel a new depth of support and understanding. Physically I dealt with a longstanding issue that needed to be resolved. My relationship with my partner feels more harmonious.”

I experienced many shifts in consciousness

“I was originally drawn to the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© as a means of reconnecting with the Goddess.

The time commitment was initially a concern however in my experience, these Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® programs give me so much insight and gnosis into how I am operating in my world as well as in the world that I couldn't really afford not to undertake the program.

I overcame the concern of time commitment by making a commitment to myself to demonstrate discipline through performing the rituals and guided journeys daily, and by writing up the insights and gnosis I had received at the end of each week.

The commitment and discipline have now flowed into other areas of my life and I am able to discern what has real meaning and therefore what is a priority.

I experienced many shifts in consciousness that resulted in changes in different areas of my life and I realised that these were necessary to support my growth and evolvement on the path of return. Basically, I fell in love with myself through this path of return to the Goddess.

This program was a game-changer in my experience. It was the hardest and most challenging Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® program I have completed to date however it has been the most rewarding. I definitely recommend it!

My sincere gratitude to Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber for making this path of return available.”

I feel a deeper connection to the goddess

“I have enrolled in many Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® programs before and have absolute faith in the sublime quality of the educational material across all aspects and dimensions. I have been very interested in Alchemy for some years and welcomed the opportunity to engage in disciplined and magical studies that would give me greater insight into the Emerald Tablet, open my heart to further guidance and strengthen my relationship with Isis-Urania.

In 2019 I was in London, tracking underground rivers and ancient sites beneath the pedestrian levels; exploring the artifacts and energies in the British Museum, traversing ancestral sites around the Apothecaries at Black Friars and meeting the London Stone. The Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© enabled me to build on these relationships and reconnect with past life and ancestral alchemical connections.

Personally, after undertaking this program, I feel a deeper connection to the goddess Isis-Urania, I have been fragranced with the exquisite beauty and resonance of the alchemical work. I can feel it in my bloodstream and there is a magical synchronicity between inner and outer worlds. I am more able to differentiate what is 'me' and what is an outer influence and much more adeptly adapt to the tides of power and consciously co-create with Nature and the Celestial powers.

I am committing to the Eighth Ray rituals at a far deeper level, more aware of the 'tides of power' and aligned with the cosmos. I have greater faith in unseen forces and the divine harmonies of the Cosmos and how we co-create music with them.

During the program my greatest challenge was having to leave my stable base and alchemical den in Tasmania after 11 months of dedicated practice, traversing to Aotearoa and establishing a new life without upsetting the alchemical chalice. It was certainly not ideal to have to move both my physical self and my Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© altar but the strong structure of the program, hearing familiar voices in the teachings, being part of the Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® and travelling with a compass so that I could readily set up my altar in any locale really helped.

As ever when undertaking the Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® programs, I was very excited to feel the germination of new beginnings and would recommend this program to others 200%!

A very big heartfelt thank you for this opportunity to journey into the heart and engage with truly profound wisdom. A seed has been well-planted.”

I stepped into a new reality

“Having experienced all other Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® programs, and the profound shifts within me, I had no hesitancy in enrolling into the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program.

Finances have been a challenge over the past few years, however, I knew this was the next step of my soul’s journey, trusting finances would come. In fact, a change in my financial situation has come during this program.

I have been on a journey of self-discovery for well over 30 years and thought I knew myself pretty well. However through the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program I now have a deeper understanding of myself. I felt like I stepped into a new reality during the early part of this program. This came with a physical shift to a new home and new area. I had received a message before looking for a new home – “let it unfold before you”. A simple message that has served me on all levels as I released the constraints I can place in my life through fear and self-doubt.

Life has unfolded before me opening up new opportunities as I allow Spirit to guide me. I have been challenged when facing situations to look for new perspectives, a different way to bring desired outcomes. To work in co-operation rather that conflict.

Connecting with the Goddess and her teachings has brought transformation, and a new inner strength. My commitment to be these teachings, to bring them into life and to purpose good."

I have benefitted immensely

"All the Medicine Woman Centre of Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® programs have enlightened and dynamically enhanced my understanding of the Nature of Life and the Universe. Every Medicine Woman Centre of Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® program I have done has expanded my consciousness and filled me with joy and gnosis. The immense satisfaction of surrender, in knowing that I am being guided by spirit and that every step of the way is progress towards seeking the light and being of service.

I had no doubts whatsoever that the Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© was the next step towards my destiny. The Emerald Tablet is a vital jewel in the Ancient Mysteries and I had known that one day I would have the opportunity to study it.

I have benefitted immensely on this epic journey. I have become conscious of my divine nature and I now know without a shadow of a doubt that I am a spirit in a physical body. I have learned to be silent, not to judge or get into conflict. I have conquered many of my weaknesses. Walking the path of Ma’at in harmony and equilibrium keeps me safe from my lower mind and I am liberated from race consciousness.

I don’t have to explain or justify myself. I have the gnosis of being at one with the Universe. My relationships are purer and full of love. I have gained self-confidence!

I will continue the Great Work with passion. Always actively participating in the dynamic teachings of the Medicine Woman Centre of Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® – The Mystery School of the Goddess.

I strongly recommend this program to anyone who is genuinely wanting to seek and find the light whilst embracing the Oneness of Universal spirit.

My gratitude knows no bounds. Thank you to Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber for bringing the Emerald Tablet and Medicine Woman Ritual of the Twelve Gates© program into the 21st Century. For creating a way for each of us to immerse ourselves in The Operation of the Sun.”
