Geegado Megwan Kwe
That’s my Spirit name, handed down to me by my tribal elder. Little did I know then how much I would eventually embody that name – “Talking Feather Woman”.
Rollie Allaire is a Holistic Life & Wellness Coach and Soul Healer whose Spirit name is Geegado Megwan Kwe, which means Talking Feather Woman.
Since 2001, Rollie has drawn on her extensive career background of clinical psychotherapy skills in combination with Chakra work, Crystal Reiki, ThetaHealing, Akashic Records reading and clearing, meditation, Moon Medicine teachings, and the Medicine Wheel to support her clients in exploring their past traumas so they can begin to heal themselves.
She has worked with women who have experienced childhood trauma, sexual trauma, domestic violence, critical incidents, compassion fatigue and grief by supporting and guiding them as they retrieve the lost parts of their souls and achieve wellness, joy, and success.
Rollie hosts both local and online groups, creating safe spaces for women to experience deep, life-changing transformations and healing.
In addition to her private groups, Rollie hosts the Monday Whispers Chat show, where she interviews inspiring women from all walks of life who are sharing their gifts (and their journeys) with the world.
Rollie strongly believes that each person has the ability to heal themselves and that her job is to bridge the gap between the client and the methods that best suit their process.
In her spare time, Rollie enjoys reading, walks in nature, and spending time with children.
Qualifications/Certifications
