The Desert Sage Journey

There are three stages of working with me, each one designed to prepare you for the next. For some, The Call will be exactly what they’re looking for and where their journey begins and ends. Others may want to do 2-3 Calls before moving on to The Initiation. Your journeys will be 100% bespoke. My intention is to be with you, allowing your soul to lead, and to hold space for what arises from your journey inward.

01

The Call

Your First Step Into the Waters

A 90-minute exploration of what's calling you toward soul work


02

The Initiation

Creating Sanctuary Within

A 2-hour sovereign journey into the chambers and elements of your being


03

The Retreat

Your Rebirth

A 3-day immersion into stillness, solitude, and soul contemplation


Hilary Skoglund

Your Guide for the Journey

I offer soul-centered mentorship and healing work to facilitate deep transformation for women navigating major life transitions. Drawing on 20+ years of experience as a birth doula, hospice worker, intuitive healer and bodyworker, I provide individualized sessions that empower women to draw upon their own intuitive wisdom to retrieve and heal lost or hidden parts of themselves through somatic, heart, and earth-centered practices. 75% nomadic desert mystic and 25% hip-hop loving, f-bomb dropping, hula hooping, punk rock loving, Swiftie, who refuses to be put into a box of what’s normal or acceptable, especially when it comes to that of my own body, heart, mind, soul and spirituality. I believe in magic, miracles, the power of prayer and intention and I live my life accordingly. My role is to hold a compassionate space—without agenda, without fixing, without judgment—while you discover what's true for you in this season of your life.

  • I first met Hilary through a massage appointment, but it quickly became clear that her gifts extended far beyond bodywork.

    Her gentle energetic healing helped awaken something within me. With each session, I gained clarity and practical tools that led to real transformation in my life. At the time, I was navigating the complexities of a pending divorce, and years later, when our paths crossed again, Hilary provided invaluable insight that helped my business partner and me overcome significant challenges. I deeply appreciate how she empowered me—offering both the encouragement to take action and the space to heal.

  • Hilary is one-of-a-kind and hands down the best craniosacral therapist in the valley.

    I also hired her as a doula for my two births, and without a doubt, on both occasions, it was the best investment I’ve made. She was lightness when it was dark. She was grounded when things started to get a little chaotic. She was clarity when things were hazy, and she always kept a sense of humor. I have continued to come to her for craniosacral therapy for me and my son. My son was having difficulties walking, and after a session with Hilary, he walked with no problems. I have experienced clarity and release of trauma in her sessions. Some might even call it magic. Hilary is so wise and intuitive that just being in her presence is a gift. 


    —ASHLEY

  • Hilary and I have worked with each other for nearly a decade now.

    I began my journey with Hilary as a recently-divorced mother of four young children who carried substantial baggage and was uncertain about a lot of the road ahead. Hilary worked with me on a host of levels including physical, spiritual, and emotional.  Her facilitation of my transformation knew no bounds, and the wisdom she has imparted is priceless. My transformation is on-going, and I do not see our time together as coming to end. As someone who has sought help with spiritual, emotional and physical healing from Hilary over the course of many years, it is a great privilege and honor to recommend her as a healer, spiritual mentor, emotional and physical doula, and witness to life's adventures, expeditions, journeys, and transformations. 

    —TICE

  • Over the years, I have leaned into Hilary during times of great loss and grief.

    As someone who wants to grieve “alone without being alone,” I’ve retreated into her home where she holds space for that. The immobilization I can experience during these times is met with compassion, and I feel safe to move though her home as I need to. Hilary listens when I want to speak and is aware of the moments that I don’t. She asks questions when it feels appropriate, but she doesn’t tell me what I should or shouldn’t do. Instead, her wisdom and gifts guide me toward my own realizations over and over again. It’s facilitation through heart, and that is what I most appreciate. 

    —EMILY

  • Hilary has been an extraordinary guide following a life-changing accident that left me paralyzed from the waist down.

    She holds space with such profound intuition that during one massage session, she sensed my legs wanted me to know "it wasn't their fault and to love them," a message that brought me to tears as I'd been secretly taking out my frustration on them. When I decided to plan my first retreat for women with physical disabilities, Hilary became my doula in every sense, providing unwavering support while empowering me to trust my own wisdom rather than imposing her judgment. Hilary doesn't come with flashing lights, but simply holds your hand as you flip the switch on your own light, breathing strength and confidence into you so you can share it with others.
