Autumn Vandiver is a facilitator and coach with over seven years of experience leading workshops on communication, consent, and relational awareness. With a background in early childhood and parent education, she designs experiences that account for different brains, bodies, and needs, and pays close attention to who might be left out and how to bring them in.

Her spaces invite people to show up as they are - whether grounded or overwhelmed, clear or confused - without pressure to perform or have it all together. Autumn is not a therapist; she weaves together somatic awareness, reflection, and a range of ways for people to explore their own inner landscape at their own pace.

She is known for taking complex or hard-to-name experiences and putting language to them in ways that feel clear, grounded, and accessible. Her communication is direct without being harsh, and relational without losing clarity. She brings a steady presence, clear boundaries, and a strong container that allows people to explore difficult or vulnerable work while feeling supported. At the heart of her work is a commitment to helping people trust themselves, speak honestly, and move through the world with more agency.

A few past offerings include:

The Rage Maker: an art lab where rage meets the page

The Soft Rebellion: reclaiming rest

Witches at Work: a monthly co-working space for femmes and thems

The Healing Sanctuary: a collaborative day-long event with meditation, acupuncture, sound healing, and massage

Her approach is additionally informed by her volunteer experiences in hospice care and a strong commitment to supporting marginalized communities, with a particular focus on making her work accessible to folks within the BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities. She is actively committed to disrupting systems of white supremacy, patriarchy, and capitalism, and works to reflect that commitment in how she builds, facilitates, and participates in community.

Along with group facilitation, Autumn works one-on-one as a professional cuddler, integrating her life coaching skills into her practice of platonic touch and connection.

Outside of her professional life, she can often be found making art, cuddling or playing card games with friends, sampling teas, writing, or curating an ever-growing collection of funny animal videos from YouTube.
