about
Our Mission
Emberwing Collective is a community built around exploration and relationship. We offer a place for women to gather, exchange perspectives, and explore ideas shaped by nature, symbolism, and lived experience. Our mission is not to direct or define, but to host thoughtful conversation and cultivate connection through shared attention.
Meet the Founders
Kim Beer is a board-certified hypnotist, Master Equine Gestaltist, and ordained minister whose work lives at the intersection of nature, awareness, and meaningful inquiry. With decades of experience creating communities, guiding conversations, and working alongside animals and land, she brings a magical, grounded presence to Emberwing Collective. Kim is less interested in answers than in good questions, and she is known for creating spaces where curiosity, intelligence, and relationship can unfold without pressure.
Vicki Jurica is a certified hypnotist, Gestalt practitioner, mindfulness-certified guide, and ordained minister with a gift for holding calm, thoughtful space. Her background in mindfulness and embodied awareness informs the way she approaches conversation, attention, and shared exploration. In Emberwing Collective, Vicki brings clarity, warmth, and a deep respect for the inner lives of others, helping cultivate a community rooted in presence, listening, and mutual regard.
The Community
Above all, the Emberwing Collective is a community of women. We are primarily online and host our collective space on Mighty Networks. We offer discussion areas (think social media type feeds where you can share and interact but without the politics and judgement), online courses, online groups, live gatherings in the Kansas City Region, live gatherings online, and retreats/getaways. We have two levels of membership — Emberkin, which offers a low-cost limited access and Flameclade, which is $149/annually and offers full access to the online community space and courses plus reduced rate admission to our secret societies, retreats, getaways, local events, experiences, and private sessions with Vicki and Kim.
