Meet Arielle
Threshold Guide. Intuitive Practitioner. Death Worker.
Hi, I’m Arielle, founder of Satori Thresholds.
Before stepping into this work, I spent over a decade in corporate accounting and finance, most recently serving as Chief Financial Officer for a $6B investment firm. My career demanded precision, discernment, and the ability to navigate high-stakes, complex environments with steadiness. Despite my conventional success, I could feel myself being guided toward another kind of work long before I had language for what that would become.
Eventually, I left the corporate world and founded Satori Financial, where I provide clear, grounded financial strategy to small businesses. That work further refined my ability to sit with people in moments of uncertainty, bring clarity to complexity, and guide decisions that carry real weight.
Training & Experience
Alongside Satori Financial, I felt a persistent call to bring my work into end-of-life care and to support people through death itself.
I answered that call by stepping more deeply into spiritual practice and formal end-of-life care. I completed death doula training through INELDA, followed by additional certification through SAGECare, expanding my foundation in the dying process and inclusive care. I also became a member of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies and completed coursework through the Boulder Psychic Institute and various independent intuitive and mediumistic practitioners.
My Practice
My practice is both trained and lived. I weave together psychic and intuitive methods, evidential mediumship, breathwork, somatic and nervous system regulation, energy work, and ancestral and plant-based wisdom, all through a trauma-informed lens.
My work is especially rooted in death care, creating space for the dying to release what no longer needs to be carried and move toward a more easeful transition.
Threshold Work
At the core of my work is a deep reverence for the threshold between life and death.
I believe that all souls know how to die.
My role is to help people remember, and to create the conditions for a death that is intentional, dignified, and rooted in their autonomy.
Death is the most literal threshold I work with, but it is not the only one.
Throughout our lives we encounter endings that ask us to release an identity, relationship, belief, future or version of ourselves. These thresholds can become profound opportunities for healing, awakening and rebirth. Every ending makes room for life to begin again.
A Lived Experience
This path is not only professional, it's also deeply personal. Through my own spiritual practice, I have experienced healing from what is considered an incurable autoimmune disease, along with other physical and mental health challenges.
These experiences continue to inform the way I show up, with humility, curiosity, and deep respect for the intelligence of the body and spirit.
I consider myself a lifelong student, continually studying, practicing, and deepening in service to my own growth and to those I am honored to work with.
Outside of my work, I nourish myself through dancing, connecting with nature, and spending time with animals.
Land Acknowledgement
I honor and acknowledge that the land on which I live and work is the traditional and unceded territory of the Ute, Cheyenne, and Arapaho Peoples.
I also recognize that this land has served as communal, ceremonial, gathering, and healing space for many Indigenous nations, and I pay respect to Elders past, present, and future.
