Welcome to Soulcraft Africa

---

Rachael is a Purpose Guide™, Nature-based Soul Companion (Anam Cara), Work That Reconnects Facilitator, and Songcatcher  of heart and earth songs. Her calling is to accompany others in living conscious, soul-aligned lives, rooted in kinship with the more-than-human world.

She holds a deep love and reverence for the wild Earth and believes that when we turn to nature as our teacher, we re-member the fullness of our sacred belonging. Each of us, she believes, is born carrying unique gifts to offer in service to the world’s unfolding.

Rachael is the Founder of Soul Nature and has worked for more than 25 years as a coach and facilitator, guiding change agents and visionaries across the globe. Born in Scotland, she moved to South Africa in 2015 to establish the Social Enterprise Academy South Africa, offering accredited leadership and entrepreneurship programmes for those creating businesses for social good.

In 2020, she responded to a deeper calling to guide nature-based human development work. She trained with Rev. Tass Two Crows Flying in shamanic studies and became a facilitator of the Work That Reconnects. In 2021, she trained as a Purpose Guide with the Purpose Guides Institute, where she completed advanced studies in 2022 and now serves as Associate Director and Lead Faculty.

Today, Rachael offers deep-dive underworld journeys that invite individuals to meet the mythic currents of their soul’s calling,  including The True Nature SoulQuest and other nature-based immersion programmes through Soul Nature.

We live in an animated world steeped in mystery, where gods are alive and speaking.

Matthew lives by this worldview, where every act is sacred and every fleeting moment is imbued with meaning. In the face of such bewildering beauty, he believes in never losing one's sense of awe, or humour.

For over 15 years, Matthew has devoted himself to the study of archetypal psychology, mythology, dreams, ritual, and men’s rites of passage. His work is rooted in a deep reverence for the wild—both in nature and within the human psyche.

A passionate storyteller and insatiable creative, Matthew has produced events, television series, documentaries, as well as numerous projects that champion ecological wisdom and social transformation.

Matthew has long been at the intersection of ecology, innovation, and well-being. He produced the renowned Eco-Logic Awards, celebrating those creating positive environmental and social change. For nearly two decades, he has been involved with Biomimicry South Africa, exploring how nature’s 3.8 billion years of intelligence can inspire human systems. He is also the co-founder of Blushield South Africa, an organisation addressing the impacts of man-made electromagnetic fields and offering solutions to support health in our modern, tech-saturated world.

He is currently stewarding the communications for Soulcraft Africa, helping to share its vision and voice with clarity and heart. He is also signed up to train with Animas as a Wild Mind guide, honing his capacity to lead others into the wild landscapes within and without.
