A Bit About Rachel
Rachel’s path to The Remembrance Temple began long before she knew its name. For much of her life, she has moved between worlds — guided by vivid dreams, intuitive visions, and experiences that stretched her understanding of time, perception, and reality itself. Yet it wasn’t until she met Simone (Simi) that the threads of her lifelong inner knowing began to weave into a clear sense of purpose.
Her Background
After stepping away from a previous career path to explore what she truly had to offer from the space of her gifts, Rachel felt a deep call toward truth, integrity, and alignment. A chance reconnection led her to book a one-on-one session with Simone — an encounter that became a profound moment of remembering. Through their growing connection, Rachel found language for what she had always known: remembrance is not something we learn — it is something that awakens within.
For almost 30 years, Rachel’s guiding philosophy has been A Course in Miracles, shaping both her inner life and her way of walking alongside others. She is trained across a range of holistic and energetic modalities, including Reiki, Pellowah, Reflexology, Zen Shiatsu, Holistic Counselling, Energetic Healing, and Vibrational Essences. Her work bridges intuitive perception with grounded human understanding — meeting people where they truly are.
Her professional life reflects this same depth of care. Rachel has worked extensively with woman and children within Domestic and Family Violence services, held Senior Management roles within retirement communities, and managed a health store and clinic — a role she describes as one of the great joys of her working life. Alongside her experience in mentoring and facilitation, these roles have shaped her way of being with people: present, steady, deeply empathetic, and anchored in lived reality.
Today, Rachel co-creates the Temple’s activations alongside Simone, offering the same inner resources and practices that have deeply supported her own path of remembrance. Together, they hold a grounded, open-hearted space for others to reconnect with their sovereignty and inner wisdom — blending practical human support with ancient ways of remembering.
Rachel’s presence carries warmth and humour, paired with a sharp, self-aware wit — always able to find light, even in darker places. Beneath the mystic’s heart is a curious and discerning mind — deeply engaged with the world, its politics, and the stories we tell through film and history, shaped in part by her time working in film. She brings this grounded awareness into the field of the Temple, holding space that is both spiritually expansive and anchored in real-world context — a steady presence as others return to their own inner knowing.
“When people arrive here, I want them to feel a soft recognition — like an ancient part of them sighs and says, ‘Yes… I remember.’”
