Taylor & Gil Shefer
Taylor and Gil Shefer live in Sebastopol with their two young children, Aya and Noah. As close family friends, they not only share but actively hold the vision of Bloom Hill Sanctuary and its mission of healing, restoration, and reconnection.
Gil is an attorney in the renewable energy sector and brings a deep passion for forest regeneration, permaculture, and the sacred act of planting trees. Taylor is a spiritual guide, doula, and community builder whose path has been shaped by her teachers in the Peruvian Andes and Amazon. She supports others in their awakening through shamanic journey work, mothers’ circles, birthwork, and medicine retreats—all guided by spirit and the intelligence of Mother Nature.
Together, Taylor and Gil have experienced profound healing through Matthew, Lauren, and their family, and feel called to help steward this next chapter of collective vision. Their hearts are devoted to healing humanity and the earth, and they are honored to be woven into this powerful web of visionaries.
