Can you please introduce yourself to our readers and share a few details about your professional background?
When I was in my second year of college, I found myself in a course on political theory that absolutely fascinated me. It felt like it was awakening something within my soul that connected me to everyone and everything in a way I hadn’t experienced before.
After graduating, I began a corporate career and my sense of connectedness and spirituality laid dormant for close to a decade. Then, all of a sudden my life took an unexpected turn when I experienced deep heartbreak and my first dark night of the soul. In the depths of pain and grief, my connection to spirit awakened and truly saved me. Practically overnight, I was able to communicate with spirits who had passed away and I started receiving profound wisdom and insight during journaling sessions. It was as if someone else was writing, using my hand, delivering me the exact wisdom, peace, and healing that I needed.
This healing process led me to my first ThetaHealing® course and from there I began an ever-expanding journey of learning, healing, growth, transformation, and integration. Along my journey, I’ve studied energy healing, Eastern and Western spiritual traditions, psychology, and consciousness. One of the things I’m most passionate about is combining my experience as a corporate consultant and professional coach with my skills as an energy healer and intuitive. I truly believe that the world needs the integration of seemingly competing paradigms and ways of viewing reality and that I am a conduit for this integration.
What is Spiral Dynamics?
Spiral Dynamics is a framework that maps the development of human consciousness over time. We can see this model play out in both individual lives, from birth to adulthood, and also in societies and civilizations throughout the course of human history. It is a “meta-model” that incorporates many ways of knowing and seeks to bring clarity and elegance to the complexity of the human experience.
Spiral Dynamics helps individuals and organizations by providing a way to identify what primary stage they are operating in and bring more health to that stage. When an individual or group displays significant health in a particular stage, the natural process of consciousness brings continued evolution and they tend to move into the next stage up the spiral. You can identify elements of this process currently by looking to the thought leaders who are bringing forth new possibilities for humanity in terms of healing trauma, bringing more light and love onto the planet, and visioning a future where we as a species are able to live happily and harmoniously with each other, nature, and the universe as a whole.
What can people expect from your Energetic Empowerment course?
Energetic Empowerment is a new course that my partner Trace Bell and I are teaching to support people in owning the Truth that they are co-creators with Source. One of the epidemics we have in the United States is the belief that we have to “pull ourselves up by our bootstraps” and somehow figure life out on our own. This is a very toxic idea because it gives us the belief that we are alone in a harsh world full of scarcity. In reality, we are constantly being held, loved, and guided by Source, our Soul, and our Spirit Team. There are countless numbers of beings who are ready to support us if we simply ask. Instead, we think that somehow we have to use logic and rationality to do everything in life. This idea is causing more and more people to feel victimized by life instead of owning the Truth that they are co-creators with Source.
In this class, we play with everything from intuitive readings and pendulums to finding energetic patterns and resolving limiting beliefs. All of it is on the foundation of using the Theta brainwave meditation to connect to Source – from there, anything is possible. The course has been a blast to guide people through and we are thrilled at the level of joy, empowerment, and intuitive insights that each person in the class is receiving!
You are also into pet communication. What can you tell me about that part of your work?
I started a pet project, pun intended, called Soul Wag. This project is such a joy for me because talking to animals is an incredibly heartwarming experience. I am deeply connected to my dog, Nalu, as he came into this life with the Soul mission of being a healer alongside Trace and I.
With Nalu’s help, I honed my skills of animal communication and now offer “A Coffee Date with Your Dog,” which is where I have a Zoom session with clients to connect with their beloved pets. Every session is so special because our pet’s souls come here to help us evolve and I love seeing how this plays out uniquely for each human-animal duo I come in contact with.
Our pets play such an important role in our lives and I feel so grateful that I get to be a conduit for deeper understanding, communication, connection, and love between human and animal soulmates.
Can you walk me through a Rainbow Bridge session?
When a pet passes away, it’s often referred to as “crossing over the rainbow bridge,” so I wanted to give people an opportunity to re-connect with their beloved soul pets who have crossed over. On my own journey, my dog Oski who crossed over in 2018 has brought me such profound healing, wisdom, and comfort and I wanted to offer that gift to others as well.
One of the most special Rainbow Bridge sessions I’ve had was with a family who was in their final days with their beloved dog. They didn’t know exactly when he was going to pass but they knew that it would be soon. During the session, the dog got to share his perspective on how incredible it was to have a life with this family and share wisdom from all of the life events and transitions they had been through together. He reminded them that he will always be with them and also, that the grief process is a necessary and profound part of the journey of their ever-expanding hearts. I felt really honored that this family trusted me to bring this communication forward from their beloved family member and once he did pass, the sacred time we all shared provided some comfort to their grieving hearts. Being able to be with people during the most vulnerable and sacred parts of life is something I am profoundly honored by.
Is there anything else about your work that you’d like to share that we haven’t covered?
I would love to conclude by reminding people to follow their soul callings. We live in a time where it’s more important than ever to be bold in following our passions and all of the desperate directions that our journey takes us in. In all of it, there is always a thread – for me that thread runs through a Fortune 100 corporation, being a ThetaHealer®, communicating with animals, and teaching consciousness. It doesn’t have to make sense or seem to all fit together. The world needs us bravely following our own unique paths and bringing our gifts forward for the forthcoming of a New Earth.
