Where it all started

My healing journey first started as a child. I called myself a witch, with the moon and sun as my eternal mother and father. I experienced psychic knowings and predictions with no logical explanation. I sensed an inner knowing telling me I am meant to do more with my unique gifts. I may have believed I could at one point, but that confidence faded as I became overwhelmed with the lifestyle of work, sleep and fast food.

I sacrificed myself, precious time with loved ones and my health in order to arrive at the ever-looming, never attainable “there” as fast as I could, pleasing everyone along the way. I sensed a lack in connection to people, always afraid to voice my opinions confidently and express my needs, leaving me feeling lonely in my own stressful world. I grew up on a mix of home-cooked southern meals and mcdonalds, but as my mom began to shift her health-path, mine slowly followed.

Then came the redirect of my life…

I began yoga at 15, immediately taking a liking to the sense of community and feeling of “I CAN do this!” empowerment it provided. The people I met were open-minded and happier, willing to accept more of me. I became a teacher at age 18 and have slowly found my voice as well as high-vibe connection in the realm of teaching.

Along the way, I experienced years of learning how to take care of myself. In the dietary realm, I have always felt the need to eat clean and pure. It took experimenting with overwhelming “healthy” recipes, tossing countless inedible baked goods and off-again-on-again vegetarianism before I finally found the simple way to cook for myself and my family, while also nourishing my unique physical needs. Within this journey, I have found herbalism, astrology, tarot, crystals, feminism, magic and most importantly, Ayurveda as the most powerful tools that serve my well being.

The more I learned, the more I realized just how connected it all is…

As my knowledge grew, I slowly became the go-to for friends and family asking about health issues, or crystals for certain energies, and healthy eating advice, leading me to find my True Voice of sharing that which helps others. As I’ve matured these past 10 years, I have learned ample information about the injustices of the world. Womens rights, spiritual bypassing,  toxic “american dream” ideals, poisons we are expected to accept as nourishment, the inaccessibility and/or impracticality of spiritual practices, and the forces at play we call “health-care” not providing those suffering the whole picture are just a handful of what keeps me up at night.

I have re-discovered and accepted my role on this planet as a guide who can awaken the healer within you. I believe that the more people who are awake to themselves and their unique role of love on this planet, the better we become. I have found so much freedom, soul connection and healing through learning to listen to myself. I have been working towards my dream-life of financial stability, soulful connection, vibrancy, energy and helping others. This is a path that can guide you, me and the rest of our brothers and sisters towards a world of inclusivity, emotional balance, planetary collaboration and high vibrations of light.
