Ready to Flourish?I’m Here to Help

For over a decade, I’ve helped women break free from the grip of Christian patriarchy & reconnect with the wisdom they were taught to silence. As a trauma-informed coach, strategist, & author, I’ve walked alongside thousands through deconstruction, spiritual burnout, and the messy, beautiful work of learning to flourish.

You’re on The Verge of Something Beautiful

Imagine waking up feeling deeply connected—to yourself, your ancestors, your body, and the wisdom that has always been present. Imagine healing from religious trauma, embracing a spirituality that nourishes your soul, and guiding others without losing yourself in the process.

Spiritual healing sounds beautiful, doesn’t it?

I’m here to tell you that the life you’re craving is closer than you think.

The wisdom we need is already inside us. The connection we crave is already ours to reclaim. The spiritual healing we seek is waiting for us to uncover it.

Wherever you are in your journey, I hope it’s encouraging to know you don’t have to figure this all out alone.

With love and hope,

Have you experienced #ChurchHurt? Are you frustrated by judgmental church people supporting oppressive systems? Do you have doubts about the faith tradition you were raised in but are afraid of losing your community?

Angela J. Herrington has been there. And with over a decade of experience as a life coach, she can teach you how to begin healing religious trauma through deconstruction.

Deconstructing your long-held beliefs can be isolating and overwhelming. But you don’t have to do it alone.

Begin your healing journey with Deconstructing Your Faith without Losing Yourself.

Christian patriarchy teaches that women are dangerous, manipulative, and untrustworthy. Whether painting women as the archetypal old witch in the woods or the biblical temptress, toxic religion vilifies their wisdom and uses fear to maintain male power.

But there’s something they don’t want you to know about that old witch in the woods: She deeply trusts her sacred gifts and hard-earned wisdom. Embracing the Old Witch in the Woods is an invitation to reconnect with feminine wisdom that has been persecuted for centuries.

When women lean into this wisdom, they learn how to trust their intuition, draw on their creativity, and lead with empathy.
