Welcome, my name is Steph and I create music, art & ritual to attempt to make sense of being human.

The Age of Remembering
What magic is it, by which we can know something without knowing how? Why is it that sometimes we feel guided by some unseen force and others utterly alone? How is it that our soft animal body can be an ally in the invisible, the subtle, the fickle world of intuition?
Listen, listen; learn to feel the language of this most intimate faculty by which we are guided as the north star leads the adventurer home. Learn to seduce it into verbosity, to catch it on the current, this dancing, wild knowing, sometimes a lion’s roar and sometimes nothing more than a whisper on the wind.
As we come back into our bodies, into relationality with the natural world, with our ancestors, with our intuition, with the sacred, precious pulse of life, we remember our place here. This gift of mortality, of dancing in the web of life, of being, for a short time, stewards of this majestic planet.
Our souls are calling us, ever more loudly, to remember what we are and what we’re here for. To remember that we are holy, that we are one with the divine, that we are sacred vessels of spirit and matter, part of a great cosmic cycle of evolving consciousness. Let us bow, and bow, and bow to the unfolding mystery.
Creative Offerings
I have a Substack for my musings on what it is to be human in these times, and I co-host the Mystical Punk Podcast, where we explore inner and outer transition in an age of collapse and possibility, with my partner Ben Roberts.
We also regularly host our sound journey event, Sonic Ritual; a space to go deep, journey, ask for guidance or receive creative insights (soon to be touring). Our shared musical project, Rara and the Wolf, is an emergent blend of haunty trip-hop, infused with electric cello (soon to be recorded).
I have been a student of Hapé (shamanic snuff) for ten years, and because it is a beloved ally, I offer it as a companion to others. Currently I’m only offering private ceremonies.
Biography
Stephanie Lisa Kelly is a writer, facilitator and artist whose work focuses on reintegrating spirituality into secular culture through events, poetry, photography and music. Having led retreats internationally pre-pandemic, she is currently focussed on serving her local community in Devon (UK). Her writing has been described as “sensuous mysticism” and she is the pen behind Wild Grace - for a world between stories, and co-founder of the Mystical Punk podcast, a podcast about inner and outer transition in an age of collapse and possibility. She has a degree in Psychology, is a certified Coach (ICF ACC), Facilitator (Thomas Huebl) and Way of Council Practitioner (Ojai Foundation).
My poetry booklet, Wild Grace, is available here. I also create spoken word that gets showcased in our music, and occasionally put some on Soundcloud.
I’ve been offering Rewilding Photoshoots for a few years now (feral footage of under-expressed parts); they’re great fun! We shoot in wild nature and use costumes, masks and accessories to explore aspects of yourself that may be lying dormant or want further expression.
I also offer podcast production (for example for the highly acclaimed Coaches Rising Podcast) and web design for heart-centred businesses.
