Welcome to
Beginner’s Grove
For the Boldly Curious.
A sanctuary for play, practices, and possibilities.
Formerly known as The Beginner’s Grove, this space invites you to slow down, listen inward, and begin again. Whether you're navigating stress, seeking healing, or simply curious about the journey of becoming — you're welcome here.
Through honest stories, grounding practices, and soulful soundscapes (like handpan and wild flutes), we hold space for growth that’s messy, beautiful, and deeply human.
“No matter where we started, or where we're going - we're all beginners here.”
—- Ricky of Rewild Your Soul
Here’s what life felt like before the Starter Kit - and what it feels like after.
❤️ Meet Diane
Why listen to me?
My Story
Because I’ve walked through the fire. Lit the match, even. I midwifed my partner’s death with nothing but love, music, and a hospice nurse down the hall. Then I buried a life, sold a dream, hugged my grandson goodbye, and started all over again — in my seventies.
I’ve been a therapist, an educator, a retreat guide, and a licensed “professional everything.”
I’ve also sobbed into soup, danced in parking lots, and chosen curiosity over collapse more times than I can count.
I didn’t pivot — I shape shifted. And now I help the emotionally fluent, spiritually curious, and semi-feral come home to themselves.
Why I Built This Place
I created Beginner’s Grove for seekers, feelers, over thinkers, and recovering perfectionists who know there’s more to life than just surviving it.
How We Help...
I help people unhook from old roles and worn-out stories — and start living with clarity, calm, and deeper self-trust.
You don’t have to perform your way into worthiness here. You just have to begin — with a little Zen, a lot of heart, and full permission to laugh (and moan) along the way.
I’m here to help you change the dial on your life — take responsibility, show up, and create your own peace.
One small practice at a time.
One real WTF moment at a time.
Welcome home.
These hands have done sacred work.
Meet the Michief Makers
Just three humans who know what it’s like to feel stuck…and decided to do something about it.
I’m Diane — feeler, firestarter, and unapologetic line-crosser. I’ve had the wild fortune of walking this path with a few legends:
🎶 Ricky, my music therapist and co-conspirator in radical curiosity.
🌿 April, integration whisperer and brave soul who’s lived the medicine.
🐝 And Sadie — once my retreat massage queen, now beekeeper-realtor-beta muse. She's all heart, all truth, all in.
None of this would exist without them. I don’t walk alone — and neither will you.
With huge gratitude to Sadie, whose willingness to experiment makes the Grove richer.
Beginner’s Grove
💝You’re not here to be perfect. You’re here to be free. 🌱
Do you feel stuck in a life you’re supposed to love… but secretly don’t?
Tired of “working on yourself” but still feeling like something’s missing?
Ever wonder if there’s a way to grow that feels less like fixing yourself — and more like freeing yourself?
There is.
And it’s simpler — and sweeter — than you think.
🚀Freedom is the practice.
🍯 Pleasure is the path.
🌞 Presence is the key.
We help curious humans drop the old scripts — the ones about perfection, performance, and "shoulds" — and come alive, one playful practice at a time.
At Beginner’s Grove, we don’t hand you another formula. We help you build trust in yourself again — through grounded practices, micro-moments of clarity, and soulful shifts that make change feel less like a crisis…and more like a collaboration.
🌻You don’t need to fix yourself. You need to meet yourself — right here, where you already are.
We don’t do hustle, grind, or shame here.
We do light-hearted exploration, bold imperfection, and conscious connection.
This isn’t self-help.
It’s self-coming-alive.

🏺 Two-Cent Wisdom Vault
Collected from the field. Shared from the heart.
Six doors. Six invitations.
Each one sparked by a real WTF I’ve lived through—not a lesson I read in a book.
Click what calls you.
Take what stirs you. Leave what doesn’t.
🪙 Crack the vault.
If you’ve ever asked, “What the hell am I supposed to do with my pain, confusion, or big, wild feelings?” — you’re in the right spot.
This short convo with Ricky started with a simple question:
What exactly are the essential tools for getting through hard times?
My answer?
Not 30 tools (that’s chaos).
Not 3 (that’s pre-school).
But 10 basic quivers (containers for big life themes)— honest, human tools (arrows) I’ve tested in the wild.
These aren’t hacks or mantras.
They’re ways to self-rescue.
To come back to yourself.
To not blow up your life (unless you want to).
Welcome to the emotional quiver.
You’re not lost. You’re just well-armed now.
