Reconnect with the inner knowing that has been waiting beneath the noise.
Clear out the old and rediscover your truth before the world taught you what it should be.
Come home to a softer, more aligned way of being that feels more like you.
Over twenty years ago, I found myself on a front porch with someone I’d just met. Instead of the usual “What do you do?”, they looked me in the eye and asked, “What are you passionate about?”
The question caught me off guard. I was ready to talk about my job and achievements, but suddenly, I felt a surprising emptiness.
That moment on the porch triggered something inside me. The “aha” moment didn’t arrive as you might expect. It didn’t wash over me with inspiration and excitement; instead, it came as a questioning of self and a deep sadness within.
I had spent most of my adult life chasing the usual suspects: money, relationships, recognition, and approval. I believed that if I could just obtain enough, be the best, and accomplish more, I would be happy.
When this sadness hit, my conditioning told me I just needed to work harder. The problem was, I was out of gas.
I had battled depression for years and finally fell deep into its arms. Through a moment I can only describe as divine, I wept, cried for help, and the Universe guided me to a therapist where I could begin to receive help.
Therapy pulled me just above water, allowing me to see my surroundings and survey the damage. With clearer eyes, one would think that this is where things started to turn around, and that happiness was just around the corner.
But it was only the beginning.
That question on the front porch was the sound of a starting gun, firing me into the depths of what some call a Dark Night of the Soul and a Spiritual Awakening.
If you aren’t familiar with these terms, they represent the collapse of everything I believed to be true about life and its meaning. I felt abandoned and isolated by God, devastated by the death of loved ones.
Relationships crumbled, roots uprooted, and my identity dismantled. Absolutely everything I had and knew to be true disappeared or changed.
Many of these changes thundered in quickly, all at once, and just when it seemed things were evening out, another wave would hit.
Through this process, I began meditating and started having experiences that left me feeling like I was going crazy!
Through another series of divine events and encounters, I discovered the practice of a Shamanic Journey. I began rising with the sun every morning and going into a deep meditative state.
This is where I began connecting to the wisdom of Shamanism. My intuitive gifts shifted into overdrive, and I ultimately started seeing beyond our everyday reality.
I began healing on a deeper level with the gifts of spiritual connection, inner child healing, and shamanic practices.
Through my years in deep meditation connecting to the Spirit World, time as a Connection Coach, and being a forever student in Nature, I have learned that we never escape heartbreak and pain on this journey.
However, how we move through those times with compassion, grace, and love for ourselves is the real medicine.
A once-triggering front porch question now feels like an invitation to freedom and wonder.
It calls me to explore and share my journey and truth — to share my feelings, love, and spirit openly and vulnerably; to learn and love myself fully so I can share that love with others; to experience and feel a deep connection with the Spirit World and Nature; to connect with people like you who are feeling the call that there is something bigger out there, beyond what you see; to help guide you on your path of truth and connection so that you too can connect to your own wisdom, gain clarity and experience peace.
So, I ask you:
