Hello

Who am I? Isn’t that the question we're all trying to answer?

​

My story probably isn’t that different from yours. I came into this world as a pure, innocent, authentic being...and then life happened. Society, culture, religion, and being raised by people shaped by those same systems led me to adapt in ways that pulled me away from my true self.

​

I was raised in a Southern Baptist-turned-holiness household and eventually rebelled against all things religious. Still, there were times I wanted to believe in something greater. I saw how people found comfort and hope in their faith, especially during moments of grief and loss. I wanted that sense of peace, too.

 

So, I believed in science and critical thinking. It felt real. Science didn’t ask for blind faith. It started with a question, followed by observation and testing. It gave me something solid to stand on.

​

But in my forties, something shifted. I began having moments of insight that shook me. They felt like truths being revealed: resonant, and undeniable. Along with that expansion came grief. Grief for the time I’d spent disconnected. I felt both grounded and  disorientated simultaneously. Like I was holding everything and nothing at once.

​

It was challenging to find any resource that spoke to my experience in a grounded or clear way. I turned to books, meditation, classes, and eventually plant medicine. I wanted to understand what was happening to me, and more than that, I wanted to live fully from this new place of clarity and truth.

​

A big part of that shift came through working with a spiritual mentor. She helped me see how much of my life had been shaped by a false identity, formed by early experiences and unconscious beliefs. Her guidance showed me how to come back to my authentic self. That experience now shapes the way I support others—with gentleness, presence, and trust in their process.

​

Along the way, I trained in the Path of the Warrior through Shambhala and became an ordained minister through the Alliance of Divine Love. That path deepened my connection to the heart and to service. It’s not about dogma. It’s about remembering that love is what we’re made of.

​

Plant medicine has also helped me reach the parts of myself I’d spent a lifetime avoiding. It taught me that real transformation happens when we meet those places with compassion instead of shame. These experiences brought me into a deeper connection with life.

​

I’m also certified as a Teacher of Presence through Eckhart Tolle’s School of Awakening. That work reminded me that healing isn’t always about effort. Sometimes, it’s about stillness. Sometimes, it’s about making space for our own wisdom to rise.

​

If you’ve found yourself here, something in you is already stirring. I’m not here to lead you, I’m here to walk beside you as you remember who you are.
