the why...
why this collective exists, and more about the person who built it from her own experience.
Hi, I’m Brianne, but most people call me Bri. I am the Founder, facilitator, voice, and heart behind Moon + Soul Collective and here is a little insight to my WHY.
I didn’t come to this work because I had it all figured out. This work came to me at a time when I needed support.
At 28, life threw me a big ol’ curveball, and I felt disconnected, confused, and honestly, like a shell of a human being. I didn’t have much faith. I didn’t trust myself. I didn’t understand what it meant to live with intention. I definitely didn’t know that we get to choose. I was a victim to my circumstances. I knew something was missing and there must be a bigger reason for my life.
My sister invited me to my first real yoga class.
I remember lying in Savasana and crying. I didn’t understand why, but for the first time in a very long time, I felt like I was actually in my body. It was uncomfortable and unfamiliar, but something in me knew I needed more. So I kept coming back.
Yoga became my first doorway into this work.
Over the years, that doorway opened into sound healing, Reiki, breathwork, meditation, energy work, and so many other practices that helped me discover parts of myself I didn’t even know were there. Little by little, I began to trust myself, listen to my intuition, and feel more connected to my body, my energy, and my own inner knowing.
At the same time, I was discovering nature.
I started hiking, camping, and exploring—often solo. I spent hours sitting in stillness, watching the light change, feeling small in this big, crazy beautiful world around me. Getting outside and into nature taught me to slow down, pay attention, and fully experience this life.
Now, I am equally nerdy for nature and for the practices that help us reconnect with our body, mind, and soul. I’m endlessly curious about what makes us who we are, what becomes possible when we step outside of what we know, and what happens when we begin to shift our perspective.
I’m always asking questions like what happens when we question what we’ve always believed? What happens when we get radically honest with ourselves? What becomes possible when we realize we have more choice than we thought?
I deeply believe our light exists within our shadow. The parts of ourselves we question, avoid, or feel uncomfortable meeting can hold some of our greatest opportunities for growth. Sometimes, those very parts can show us the way.
That is the heart of Moon + Soul. I’m here to share the tools I’ve gathered through my own journey toward deeper connection, trust, and inner peace. Through movement, breath, sound, Reiki, meditation, nature, reflection, and immersive experiences, I create spaces where you can slow down, turn inward, explore something new, and reconnect with yourself.
My intention behind this work has always been simple To guide you back home to your own inner light. I want you to trust yourself. To live in alignment. To step outside your comfort zone. To explore, try new things, follow your curiosity, and create a life that feels authentically yours. Because I don’t believe this work is about becoming someone new. It’s about remembering who you already are.
Thank you for being here, and most importantly, thank you for being you.
