About Becoming Gold Together
Welcome to Becoming Gold Together
Becoming Gold Together is a transformative sanctuary for individuals, parents, and communities ready to move beyond fear and into embodied, relational love. Rooted in the S.T.A.R. (Stages of Transformational Awareness and Relation) method, our work invites you into real-time practices of connection—with yourself, with others, and with the living Earth.
We don’t just talk about love.
We practice it—on Earth, in real time, with real people.
Through guided courses, expressive arts, ecological awareness, and trauma-informed relational tools, we support your evolution from isolation and survival into wholeness, resilience, and grounded belonging. Whether you’re navigating rupture, parenting alone, or seeking spiritual and psychological integration, this space honors your path.
Inspired by the science of the stars and the wisdom of the soul, we believe transformation is not a solitary act—it’s a shared unfolding.
Together, we become gold.
Shauna Leigh Shepherd, MA
Shauna Leigh Shepherd, MA, is a transformational coach, author, and healing arts practitioner who founded Becoming Gold Together after years of wondering why no one was talking about love in real life—the messy, relational kind that includes crying in the car, parenting through chaos, and still showing up with heart.
Blending ecological psychology, expressive arts, somatics, and cosmic metaphors, Shauna created the S.T.A.R. (Stages of Transformational Awareness and Relation) method to help others navigate the wild terrain of becoming fully human—together. Her work invites people to move through fear, embody creative courage, and root into love as a practice, not just a philosophy.
When not helping others transform, she can be found writing by the ocean, parenting a fierce little being, and occasionally talking to trees (who are very wise, for the record).
