Seeker of the Sacred Within. Earth Lover + Star Gazer. South African. Word Nerd. Pattern Finder. Soothsayer + Creative Maven at Crafting the Sacred.
I am a coach and intuitive reader based in the San Francisco Bay Area. I love what I do! As with most soul work, it has been a meandering path of self-discovery that brought me to here.
I was born and raised in a small, rural town in South Africa during the apartheid era and moved to the Bay Area in the late-90s. My South African roots have had a deep impact on my approach to healing and transformation, which I carry in my psyche and influences my work today.
I studied Industrial Sociology and Adult Education & Training at the University of Cape Town in the early 90s. I have worked in non-profit and legislative environments in South Africa and law environments here in the U.S. These experiences have been invaluable when working with clients considering career transitions. For more details on my qualifications and professional experience, please see my resume on LinkedIn.
In 2007, I left the 9-to-5 office world to launch my business, Crafting the Sacred, which offers a variety of coaching services and spiritual products. I feel blessed to have found my soul work in my 30s and love holding space for my clients’ process.
The majority of my clients are women who are looking for ways to align themselves to their true calling. I have a knack for working with artists, writers and musicians in finding their muse, overcoming creative blocks, nurturing their creative expression and finding ways to make a living through their creative work.
My personal spiritual practice is a mixture of Earth-based spirituality and Buddhism. Acknowledging the sacred and divine in all beings is central to my worldview.
When not pondering the meaning of it all, I can be found enjoying life with my husband and loved ones in Berkeley, California.

Warm Regards,
Jo Crawford
