my journey
At 12 years old, I experienced excruciating arthritis in my hips. It was so bad I couldn’t walk upstairs. The Dr. told me I would have hip replacement surgery or be in a wheelchair by 30 years old!
In my teens I experienced acne and the Dr. put me on birth control. I suffered from low self-esteem, anxiety and depression until late 20’s.
In my 20’s I had horrible gut issues, constipation and bloating. I was burdened with brain fog, poor memory and difficulty concentrating, diagnosed with ADHD. I was a yogi living on the beach in San Diego and working for small businesses which I loved, but still I felt stuck & unfulfilled.
I made a leap, left my job and started a conscious travel consultancy while traveling to 20 countries over 3 years. My awareness expanded beyond measure.
At 29 I fully committed to self-healing, changed careers, and immersed myself into stress healing and somatic therapy.
At 32 my dad suddenly died… just 4 weeks after receiving a stage 4 abdominal cancer diagnosis. A tragic opportunity to go deeper into healing modalities for myself & others.
Through 2 decades I have studied, practiced and integrated various healing modalities for myself and those around me.
Now I am honored to share them with you.
