My
Story
I believe we can all create a conscious Healing Existence that is rewarding and impactful.
I believe it to be true for you, because it is true for me.
The Beginning
As the eldest child to BIPOC parents born into a survival mode environment of terrorism, occupation and a traumatic family story, I was conditioned to believe I had a life of limitations in this world. The best case hope was to suffer as less as possible. I did know know nor believed thriving was possible or how to get there.
My self mechanism way of compensation, was to proceed from educational achievement to corporate ladder-climbing. I focused on doing and achieving, and I did it well. It was not satisfying.
I could not find inner peace and felt disconnected from myself and the world around me.
The Pivot
It was through those challenges and soul searching that I learned the important role the mind-body connection plays in healing and growth. Since that time, I’ve dedicated myself to my own growth through mind and body-centered therapies, which ultimately led me to help others with their own experiences.
My immersion in these various modalities has given me a breadth of experience to support others on their own different personal healing journeys.
The Way Forward
I took a leap of faith and embarked on a revolutionary pilgrimage of self love and renewal. I uprooted and moved to the Big Island of Hawai'i to be closer to nature and enjoy a deeper connection with mother earth.
I continue to immerse myself in exploring various healing modalities and ways of being, while transforming to a purpose of sharing my love for our world in a way that supports collective healing.
Healing is not a work of perfection or expertise.
We are all healers.
We heal with our wholeness, our humanity, all of our life experience, even our wounds.
