The Matriarch Collaborative
Wellness for those claiming power in their health through self-care.
In an age dominated by prescriptions and quick fixes, The Matriarch Collaborative offers an integrated, holistic approach to health and healing. Our content, classes, and programs are designed to support self-awareness, strengthen self-care practices, and empower individuals and professionals alike through education and experiential training.
Founded in 2018 as a healing-focused blog centered on essential oils, plant-based supplements, and mineral support, The Matriarch Collaborative has since evolved into a dynamic platform. Today, we integrate holistic yoga, Reiki, and wellness education with professional development and practitioner training—all with the intention of expanding access to holistic tools and strengthening community-based healing, both locally and online.
Our Mission
The mission of The Matriarch Collaborative is to connect communities with education, experiences, and resources that foster holistic healing for all—especially for individuals and families impacted by the devastating effects of the War on Drugs and the U.S. National Opioid Crisis.
We acknowledge that the War on Drugs has caused widespread, systemic harm—fueling an epidemic marked by toxic drug contamination, incarceration, civil unrest, homelessness, shame, and isolation. These consequences have touched every corner of society, disproportionately affecting vulnerable communities and deepening cycles of trauma.
While our services, events, and trainings are open to all, our core intention is to promote alternative, integrative approaches to healing. We aim to support those affected by substance use, criminalization, and societal stigma, offering pathways to restoration, empowerment, and collective wellness. Through this work, we envision healing not just for individuals and families—but for entire communities in pursuit of justice, equity, and peace.
