TOTEM has always believed that healing happens in community. When one of us is shaken, the rest of us circle around. Right now, Rachel needs that circle. Over the last several months, Rachel faced a cascade of personal and financial blows that would have flattened anyone. A sudden housing crisis, safety concerns, and the abrupt loss of income all collided at once, ripping away her stability and the creative foundation she’s poured years into building. She has never asked for help. She has never leaned on her community for rescue. She has spent years holding, guiding, reading, mentoring, and lifting others — quietly, skillfully, generously. Now, for the first time, she needs us. Your support rebuilds her landing pad: safe housing, time to heal and stabilize, the resources to return to her creative and spiritual work. Every gift box provides a step forward toward security, autonomy, and breath. Every purchase is an act of protection — not charity, but reciprocity.
