My Journey
Have you ever felt the pull of something greater than yourself? The call to explore the mysteries of life, love, and death? That's been my journey since I can remember. From a young age, I was drawn to the beauty of nature and the wonders of the spiritual realm. I spent countless hours contemplating the big questions of life – in my dreams, in my own fantasy world, in the first songs I’d compose, in my deep connection with the forest and the magical beings living in the flowers and the trees…
For a little while as a young adult, I was living life on the surface, merely going through the motions, fulfilling what I thought was expected of me. Yet I always felt a deeper calling, greater visions, stronger dreams. I felt it deep within me, like a seed buried in the soil, that yearns so deeply for nourishing raindrops and rays of sunshine. As I began to nourish this seed of dreams, my vision slowly emerged. As I embraced my passions for art, dance and healing, my vision began to crystallize. I found my roots in the sweet spot where creative expression, body wisdom, and intuition meet. This is the space where venturing into the unknown becomes the greatest adventure, where it becomes possible to connect with my higher Self and my innermost creative voice – guiding others to do the same. This is the space I visit as an artistic healer and intuitive dance facilitator — this is the space where transformation and growth are invited to unfold naturally. (… still curious?
