Spiral Collective *
Let’s build our businesses together and on our own terms.
Marketing for healing practitioners shouldn’t feel like you’re selling your soul to the dang algorithm.
You are tired of paying subscription-based ads to companies that upsell you to get “more” visibility.
You’re exhausted by joining groups that forbid self-promotion when the vast majority of healers’ businesses are referral-based. You want a business that feels aligned to you.
The Spiral Collective (formerly the healers listserv) is a space to support each other’s offerings, self-promote, share business skills, build strong referrals, and stay connected with other healers. We hold monthly video calls that focus on building thriving businesses and community and setting monthly creative business intentions.
We are a creative and intentional community for healers to support each other’s offerings, build strong referral networks, and stay connected outside of social media. We hold monthly video calls focused on your business, cultivate deep connection, and set creative intentions. Email and each other continue to be some of the strongest forms of connection we have to keep small businesses thriving. Let’s keep supporting each other in these hard economic times.
The internet has changed.
How we find each other has changed.
Big Tech has and will continue to dip their grimey lil’ paws into our small business…
You want to have a business that feels congruent to your values.
Join the Spiral Collective. A place for you to move into marketing spaces that feel good.
We decide how we let these factors impact us. The more we work together, the stronger our business and well-being are.
What the heck even is the Spiral Collective, dude?
And Who is This For?
I am so glad you asked.
The Spiral Collective is like a secret club house.
-
✨ You are added to an email group, where you receive emails from group members and can send emails to this specific clubhouse group. Self promotion is also welcomed.
✨ You are also added to our circle app group where we meet monthly for business skill share, community, and referrals. These space is also where we meet for co-working, and other pop-up events. You are encouraged to self promote in this space.
It is also…
🌀 A Centralized Referral Network: Remember the last time you had a client you needed to refer out, but couldn’t because your contacts are scattered across Facebook, Psychology Today, and dead email threads? Or the last time you needed a specialist for a client and didn’t know where to look? This is the hub.
🌀 Promote Your Offerings: You spent years in school or moons of lived experience cultivating your craft. Share it here. When we actively support each other’s work, we become less vulnerable to the whims of Big Tech and insurance gatekeepers.
🌀 Learn About Others’ Work: Connect the people you care about to healers you trust. The web of care extends widely when we are aware of what each of us is putting into the world.
🌀 Ask for & Build Referrals: Stop posting on every ding-dang forum. Have one place to ask for referrals that is seen by peers who actually get it.

We meet monthly, but this isn’t another performative networking event. It’s a space to be, show up as you need, and hold the impossibility of this work together.
Our calls are structured around three anchors:
Connection & Presence: A non-exhausting, unmasked way to check in. We know we’re all holding heavy things. Here, we just witness each other.
Building Strong Referrals: We spend time getting to know each other’s specific modalities and niches. We honor the labor it takes to get to this moment. We build networking experiences based on abundance, not scarcity.
Creative & Somatic Practice: We set aside time to focus on your business intentions seasonally. Through journal prompts, art, and breath work, we reconnect with the creativity that fuels our wildest dreams. When we lose our ability to be creative, we lose the ability to manifest our practice.
Community that is real.

It’s highly likely your marketing isn’t the problem.
You’ve probably been told a lot of ways to market your work:
Focus on your SEO!
Pay 1 million doll-hairs for one google ad!
Join a listserv (but you can’t promote your work)!
Become a full-time insta content machine! No one tells you that it slowly becomes a full-time job. So now you have two full-time jobs, ouch.
If you don’t go, CASH PAY RIGHT NOW YOU WILL NEVER MAKE A SINGLE CENT!
Get on psychology today - but/and the algotryhm is f*****.
I know you know what I’m talking about - it gets… weird out there.
But you do wanna market yourself.
And, you do wanna feel connected to others.
And, you wanna value other healers’ work, because heck, you know when one of us thrives, we all thrive.
You are tired of paying subscription-based ads to companies that upsell you to get “more” visibility.
These insta therapist coach influencers really got me wondering if I’m good at my job at all.
If I market myself, will I end up like the insta influencers who feel so far from my values and this work?
Can I magically hit 10k months? (TBH, you can - with strategy and support).
I’m feeling really weird wanting to make a livable wage because the healing field has made us awful for wanting to pay for my teeths. But also… I’m in like 100k student debt - what even is the path forward?
I know nothing about marketing… And my psychology today profile stopped bringing in as many people. Do I need to work at a group practice?
I came into the healing field to work with humans, not learn how to tech - gosh.
That’s what the Spiral Collective is here to help you be less alone in a very lonely process: marketing.
Without a space to adequately promote & connect with other healers, you're left thinking…
be met with support
