Busyness & Chaos Simply Don’t Serve Us:
Modern holidays in late stage capitalism demand impossible social media standards, and glorify spending in a time when the cost of living has risen. It keeps busy and distracted, with all the baking, planning, shopping, spending.
It’s an intentional recipe for failure that pulls us into an endless loop that serves capitalism and really doesn’t serve us at all.
There’s no time to reflect and rest in the capitalist holiday calendar; no time to build resilience to remain grounded when the people around us might not feel that way , set boundaries, or find contentment in the slow season of darkness.
We end up tired, depleted, and often broke.
Not exactly that Norman Rockwell scenario we strive to recreate.
YOU ARE INVITED!
to step out of the cycle and into your own rhythm this season.
GIVE YOURSELF THE GIFT OF TIME
to remember what calls to you &
ALLOW YOURSELF SPACE
to create it over the next month
We have created a space in
the Kin Keepers’ Haven for you
to set intentions
come back to your body
honor grief & find belonging
a space to create & practice small rituals
a space to co-regulate & connect
a space to support the way you want to feelthroughout the holidays
& into the New Year
Meet your Hosts:
Trevia (TREE-va) Woods
(she/her)
I live and work on the traditional land of the Eno, Tutelo, Saponi, Occaneechi, Shakori, and the Tuscarora past and present, colonially renamed Hillsborough, North Carolina, USA.
I am a mixed-race woman with two decades of experience in bodywork, education and community-building.
I support people in building community, unpacking cultural appropriation, and assisting people with unpacking cultural appropriation.
I also help Culture Makers share their magic with the world, sustainably, so they can thrive along with their clients.
I love plants and books, and I’m a mom to a blended family of 5 boys & 1 VERY cute dog.
Janine’s caring, insight, and crone energy brings me life! Janine brings fun and vulnerability to our friendship and partnership each time we meet. I know she’s in my corner and shows up to support me however she can. We love merging our strengths together as a collective, and exploring ways to break out of the cycles of late stage capitalism.

Janine Bertolo
(she/her)
I live and work on the unsurrendered land of the Algonquin Anishinaabe People, colonially named Gatineau, Quebec, in Canada.
I’m an anti-capitalist crone, certified post trauma growth coach, and political junkie who helps humans to identify and unlearn the voices of systemic oppression that are planted in our brains from an early age.
I long for a world where all living beings have equal access to the necessities of life, including laughter, rest, creativity, & joy.
I love to read, paint, watch birds, and prowl the countryside with my love & our rescue pup (who’s also pretty darn cute!)
Trevia introduced me to the concept of a slow yes and I will be forever grateful to her for that. She holds space for me to be me, unfiltered and vulnerable, silly and joyful, angry and determined, grieving and celebrating, all of it.?
I’m excited to continue following our slow yes together, and to be her partner in bringing you the Kin Keepers’ Haven.

What’s Included (the dets)
We begin on December 6 with the first of FIVE WEEKLY CALLS in the Kin Keepers’ Haven where we will:
- set intentions
- honor grief and let it move through
- share experiences
- body double to craft and cook
- share our holiday traditions (Trevia will be sharing her traditions for Yule)
- and we’ll close the season with reflection and intention-setting for the New Year on January 3
There will be two options for Wednesday calls, one at 12 p.m Eastern and another at 7 p.m. Eastern
(You are welcome to attend one or both) Calls will be recorded and posted in the space for viewing throughout the month at your leisure.
We will host TWO BODY-DOUBLING CALLS (likely on the weekend) to craft or cook something special for your holiday.
You will also receive a PERMISSION SLIP to opt out of any and all activities to honor your needs and capacity.
We’ve priced membership in the Kin Keepers’ Haven with joy and justice in recognition of the high costs of everything these days, and offer you the Founding Members rate of $30 monthly paid in your local currency (choose this option on signing up)
Membership gives you access to all of the offerings in the Kin Keepers’ Haven community space, where you can and connect with other members.
In the coming months we will be rolling out spaces to:
- Honor Your Ancestors and Lineage (hosted by Trevia)
- unlearn capitalism and sooth your nervous system (Self-Centred, hosted by Janine)
- cultivate leadership and authority as elders in the Caucus of Crones
(hosted by Janine & open to members aged 50 and over) - and more as we follow the breadcrumbs of our slow yes together
You can cancel your membership at any time.
