The Dark Femme Collective is your invitation to venture inward, engage deeply and heal the parts of yourself that you ignore.
With soft compassion and clear directives, The Dark Femme Collective will guide you on a journey to your childhood and past lives to find strength and confidence so that you can achieve your goals as an adult in this life.

Shadow work helps uncover hidden patterns, unresolved emotions, and generational wounds that unconsciously shape behavior.
By confronting your past, you can understand more deeply why you are the way you are and respond to the world with awareness rather than react out of old conditioning.
This self-integration allows you to guide clients and family members with authenticity, empathy, and emotional maturity.
WHAT IS THE
DARK FEMME
COLLECTIVE?
The Dark Femme Collective is a space for women of color to get real with themselves.
Through brutal honesty and guided practices that blend spirituality, psychology, and political education, you’ll learn how to get over guilt, shame and fear.
You’ll learn how to stop blaming others and accepting responsibility for your life.
This is more than just life coaching; it’s a portal into a black hole of deeper self-awareness, dark feminine power and collective liberation.
The Dark Femme Collective is an invitation to reprocess childhood memories that still piss you off, release past life karma that you know you have and remember who the fuck you are behind the mask: beautiful, scarred and rooted in ancestral magic.

Dark Femme Collective Member Testimonials
“The women in this space were powerful, wise, vulnerable, and full of love. We didn’t just learn from Lauren. We learned from one another. It was community. It was sisterhood. It was liberation in action.
If you are on the fence, let this be your sign. Say yes to yourself. Say yes to the healing you deserve. Say yes to a version of you that is whole, free, and no longer defined by old pain.
Working with Lauren Funiestas and being part of The Dark Femme Collective was one of the most life-affirming decisions I have ever made. I walked in curious. I walked out transformed. You will not regret it. You will remember it forever.”

“While I've been in & am actively in other dark feminine groups, this is the only one I've encountered thus far who comes from/with a lens of decolonizing Filipinx femmes. There's strength & healing in solidarity, & I felt very seen & affirmed in my experiences during the pilot group. I also like knowing/meeting a group a little before presenting to them.
I love that Manang Lauren is the embodiment of the dark femme, bringing all the professional & empirical knowledge with her to help us all heal with empathy without dimming whatever lights her up. It's so refreshing to be in a circle with someone who looks like me who embraces the human experience & knows how to nourish all parts of her body (yay for the love of the green, sensual movement, & weight training). That unapologetic authenticity allows me to trust her as my guide in doing shadow work.”
~ Karla R., DFC Alumna
“It was a beautifully healing first session. Manang Lauren opened up about herself and experience in mental and spiritual health, which I think comforted everyone into being vulnerable. Manang Lauren is an excellent facilitator, and, she received us all with warm, calm energy. I felt seen and cared for during the entire experience, not just by her but by all the people in attendance. I am so excited for the rest of the sessions!”
