Co-founding Director and Steward of Spirit Hollow

Tracey is a fearless and compassionate facilitator who has “been to the mountain” and descended into the abyss to lament for the earth, to celebrate the beauty and pain and who knows the rich gifts that lie in the dark to be mined.

Tracey is particularly called to help humans to move from the outworn worlds, across thresholds into yet-too-be-revealed worlds that are coming. She is a deep listener of Earth's dreaming, of the "in-betweens," in communion with the sacred land that is Spirit Hollow, where she has lived and worked for the last 25 years, and a devotee of the soul stream.

With a Master’s Degree in English History and Language, Tracey has been a college English professor for over 30 years, having taught a huge variety of writing, literature courses, with a particular focus on self-inquiry and environmental issues. She has taught both full and part-time at Ohio University, in the University of Kentucky system, at Southern Vermont College and the Community College of Vermont, in traditional, online, and hybrid classrooms.
