HerStory

The path that brought me here.

My mission is simple. I want you to thrive.

From an early age, I felt deeply drawn towards spirituality, esoteric wisdom, and alternative ways of understanding ourselves and the world around us. I have always been intuitive by nature, although there were many years where I struggled to fully trust or follow that inner knowing.

In 2014, after experiencing complete burnout and reaching a significant turning point in my life, I began to truly listen to the quieter voice within me. What followed was a profound period of inner transformation that shifted the way I understood myself, healing, and the deeper rhythms of life. Over the years that followed, this unfolded into what felt like a powerful spiritual awakening and initiation, opening the door to a path of deep learning, personal growth, embodied healing, and self-discovery.

I have walked closely with life’s depths and navigated periods of profound challenge, illness, grief, and transformation. Through both my own lived experience and my work supporting others, I have come to understand that healing is rarely linear. Often, it asks us to slow down, listen deeply, and gently turn towards the parts of ourselves we may have long disconnected from.

This journey continues to shape both who I am and the way I work. I am deeply curious about the relationship between suffering, healing, embodiment, and human connection—and how, through awareness, love, compassion, and presence, we can slowly begin to reconnect with ourselves in more authentic and meaningful ways.

My work and studies are devoted to exploring these intersections: where body, mind, emotion, spirit, and lived experience meet. I believe that even within life’s most difficult moments, there is the potential for transformation, and that our darkest moments can serve as portals that open and reveal the truth of who we really are. These fleeting moments of awareness act as a reminder that we extend beyond our physical form, encouraging us to delve deeper within ourselves and embrace the potential for transformation.

Before I began facilitating healing practices for others, I spent a long time dedicated to embracing change and transforming my own life for the better. By integrating spirituality with science, philosophy, up-to-date research, and compassionate wisdom, my wish is to empower you with the tools for self-care and personal development so you can live your best life. Although my journey has sometimes felt uncomfortable, the more I released deep-rooted issues, the more I evolved and expanded my capacity to heal. The connections I’ve felt through my own personal healing practices are a constant reminder of something far greater than myself.

A lifetime of lived experience, through both challenge and growth, has gently shaped who I am today.

Over the past 20 years, the healing practices that I’ve experienced and that have helped me change and grow have included Multiple Yoga Disciplines, Meditation & Pranayama, Psychotherapy, Counselling & Somatic Therapy, Soma Breathwork, Conscious Connected Breathwork, Kundalini & Altered States Breathwork, Inner Child Healing & IFS, Soul Retrieval Work, Shamanic Healing & Shamanism, Psychedelics & Plant Medicines, Life Coaching, Nutrition & Functional Medicine, Hypnosis, Trauma Release, Acupuncture, Energy Medicine, Spiritual Ritual, and Ceremony.

Every twist and turn in life is an opportunity to learn something new about yourself. We all have the radiance within us. Change is possible.
