I’ve always been sensitive.
Between the trauma of an abusive broken father, a critical mother and a repressive religious upbringing, I grew up believing that my entire existence was wrong and the world was a terrifying place to be.
Only the light in my heart led me to want to survive and thrive.
I stretched the limits of my comfort zone from being a nomad in Europe for 20 years, street performing, circus arts, high fashion modeling, tasting anything and everything of whatever life had to offer, between flirting with celebrities and doing drugs with street folks, I longed to understand life and the internal world that confined me.
Layer upon layer the protective mechanisms I created to survive in the world began to peel off.
From shamanism, Buddhism, yoga, Osho, somatic practices, internal family systems, mindfulness, intergenerational and ancestral trauma release and more… my inner self began to break out of it’s cage and feel the beauty of my own being and of the world around me.
The greater the journey into revealing and surrendering to my own internal essence, the greater my capacity to feel the world with deep empathy and compassion.
Thus, my skills of intuition developed, somatic touch, divine guidance and deep empathic listening.
Through healing myself I became a healer.
I commune directly with spirit. Somehow it moves through me, free to move without the obstruction of layers of childhood baggage. Spirit influences my work, through my hands, my words and the practices I facilitate.
I am in my calling and I create an environment for my clients to heal, to be seen, heard & felt, and ultimately, to grow and expand into the deepest expression of themselves.
