Why I Do This Work

What Led Me Here

From years of trauma, pain, addiction, and hopelessness, I found my way back to life through deep intentional healing, reflection, and inner work. There was a time where I couldn't imagine feeling safe in my body, let alone feeling peace, joy, or purpose. I was stuck operating in survival mode - numb, disconnected, constantly seeking something to soothe the ache I couldn't name. I carried wounds that were never validated, emotions I was never taught to express, and patterns of self-abandonment that kept me trapped in cycles of pain.

​

Slowly, something within me began to rise and called me to the path of healing. When I embarked on a journey with plant medicine, I was exposed to the reality that I created through continuously living in wound - completely unconsciously. I changed the trajectory of my entire life within the matter of days - my overall health was of utmost importance to me. I began healing myself from the inside out through diet, exercise, and getting to the root cause of my pain. I began to ask deeper questions, to turn inward instead of reaching outward for relief.

Through energy healing, shadow work, embodiment practices, plant medicine, and spiritual devotion - I began to remember who I truly was beneath all the pain.

​

That path led me to become a Reiki II Practitioner, Certified Spiritual Life Coach, and Certified Intuitive Energy Healer. These certifications have not only deepened my personal healing, but also expanded the ways I hold space for others on their own journey.

​

Healing wasn't instant, nor was it linear. It came in waves - some soft, some Earth-shattering. But each time I met myself with compassion instead of shame, I reclaimed a piece of my soul. I began to see that my wounds were not my weakness - they were my portals. The very places I felt most broken became the openings through which my light could return. 

​

I do this work because I know what it's like to forget. To feel like your pain defines you. To long for someone to simply hold space without trying to fix you. I became the guide I once needed - not someone with all the answers, but someone who knows how to walk beside you while you find your own. 

​

This work isn't something I chose randomly. It's the result of choosing myself over and over again, even when it was hard. Even when it hurt. It's a devotion to truth, to embodiment, to Spirit. It's a reclamation of everything I once believed I had lost.

​

I am also currently deepening my devotion to this path through two powerful mentorships where I am receiving wisdom, education, and certifications in various healing modalities including Breathwork and Meditation, The Sacred Art of Microdosing, Integration Support, Akashic Records Reading, Holy Fire Reiki Master Teacher training, Ceremonial Facilitation with both Gentle Plant Allies & Expanded States of Consciousness, and Somatic Activated Healing. These studies are not only expanding my capacity to hold space for myself and others, and serve, but are also guiding me into even deeper alignment with the medicine I am here to embody and share.

​

Every session I hold, every circle I facilitate, is infused with that lived knowing. I don't just believe healing is possible - I've lived it. I've become it. And now I offer that same possibility to you. Not as a savior, not as a solution - but as a mirror, a guide, and a loving witness on your journey back home to yourself.
