My Journey
I do what I do, because I have been in the mind set where I could not acknowledge my heart’s desires, where I have criticized myself like my own worst enemy, and did not know how to love me. I am on the journey of constant self-love and care, and I want to share that with you. I know that empty, yearning feeling, and want to help you reach a victory over it.
I grew up in the lettuce capital of California, riding horses, attending Catholic mass, doing ballet, and playing softball.
When I was 5, I was on a local news story with my horse. When the reporter asked me if I wanted to be a cowgirl when I grew up, I replied, “no, I want to be a nurse.” It shocked everyone (including me), because I screamed at the sight of a needle or blood. Looking back, I knew I wanted to help channel healing energy, but didn’t know what to call it.
When I was 21 I had a love hate relationship with a swami. He told me I would have a successful path as a spiritual leader, but he also told me I couldn’t write, would get a divorce, be a flight attendant, would never have luck in love, and should focus on spirituality only.
Guess what happened? All of the above. I believed it was my truth, so of course it came true!
When I was 25, I was diagnosed with a severe case of PCOS. I had various doctors advise me of different options, none of which sounded appealing to me; medicines, surgeries, procedures. I chose a different route, a holistic one. I found an acupuncturist who suffered the same syndrome as me. She had made progress herself, and I was confident she could do the same for me.
About 3 months into my journey with her, I met a Feng Shui practitioner. As much as I didn’t want to spend more money to heal, I also knew that if I wanted change, I had to be a visionary and not act out of fear. I hired her with great intention to clear my home and give me Feng Shui tips on color and placement. I listened to her advice, made the changes in my home, and my healing then magically unfolded faster. I began sleeping better, work progressed, and my relationships improved.
From that point on I was enthralled, and I knew that I wanted to learn this art so that I could share it with people who needed it the most. I continued to manifest good health, a job as a flight attendant (which I always wanted but was scared to do), a healthy relationship with money, and eventually my husband. All beyond my wildest dreams.
I have been faced with many “you will nevers,” “you can nots,” and “you should nots.” For a while I listened to all of them, and I let those beliefs play out to be my story. Eventually I became fed up with the limitations. I took a stance for me and decided I was going to stop “shoulding” on myself. I created a new village of people. I believe it takes a village of teachers and healers of all walks of life, to help live the best life possible. They showed up everywhere; in school teachers, bosses, and various practitioners. I not only came out on top, but exceeded my own visions and intentions.
My experience proved to be so life changing, I have dedicated my path to help you do the same.
I am humbled to share with you the tools I used and continue to use to reach my personal victories. My goal is to be a part of your team that guides you to your own victories. I am committed to working in a place of light, compassion, gentleness, integrity, and above all, LOVE. My intention is to remain uplifting and sincere, while I support you to create a mental and physical energy space that will allow you to forgive your past, love your present, and manifest your future beyond your wildest dreams!
