What I do now didn’t begin as a career path. It began as my own survival.
For over 20 years, I was functioning — but I wasn’t truly living.
Beneath a career as a pharmacist, a stable relationship, and a life that looked responsible and put-together, I was held together by sheer effort and quietly falling apart internally. I had multiple near-death experiences that I hadn't processed. I had Lyme disease, PCOS, fibromyalgia, endometriosis, interstitial cystitis, chronic fatigue, depression, anxiety — and over a decade of severe, debilitating pain on the left side of my body that no one could fully explain.
For years, I did everything to try to escape my lived reality - ongoing therapy, endlessly trying to fix my illnesses, grasping for answers outside of myself. And nothing really helped.
What I didn't understand yet was that the illness wasn't separate from the way I was living. The disconnection, the striving to prove something, the faking of a life I'd outgrown long ago — my body was speaking in the only language I hadn't learned to hear yet. And it was the clearest signal I had.
What followed wasn't a clean or overnight transformation. It was a complete unraveling and rebuilding of my life over a year — leaving my career as a pharmacist after 9 years, transforming my relationships, and healing my chronic pain. I finally reconnected to the parts of myself I'd spent a lifetime trying to forget. And I did it through listening to my symptoms, not by going around them.
The Work I Guide Others Through Now
I didn’t come to this work because I was curious. I came to it because my body made it clear that what I was living could not continue through years of physical, mental, and emotional pain and self-abandonment. Ultimately, this taught me something I couldn’t unlearn:
survival can look functional for a long time, and our resilience can actually become one of the biggest blocks in transforming our lives.
The work I guide others through now is the work that transformed my own relationship to my body, my identity, my career, and my sense of purpose.
I’m not interested in helping people cope with successful lives that quietly destroy them and their health.
I’m here for those who are willing to feel what’s happening in their bodies, their patterns, their relationships — and let their lives transform from there. I'll be there, guiding you through the process.
Together, we'll explore how identity, nervous system patterns, illness, creativity, and purpose intertwine. And in doing so, we'll learn to create the causes and conditions for your life to move in a more authentic direction – one that only you can uniquely express.
I work as an intuitive mentor, somatic guide, and practitioner for people seeking deep, embodied transformation — yet all I'm really doing is helping you listen to what your body has been telling you all along.
Because of my own experiences, I’m especially passionate about guiding people who:
- Feel disconnected from themselves despite external success
- Are navigating chronic illness, chronic pain, or burnout
- Sense that their work or creative expression no longer fits
- Are ready to stop demanding change from themselves and start listening differently

my values
Integrity Over Consistency
I prioritize honesty over predictability. If my understanding changes, I'm never afraid to say it. Truth matters more to me than maintaining a consistent image.
Embodiment Before Ideology
I only teach what I've lived, felt, and integrated. Insight means little to me if it hasn't passed through the body and changed how I live.
Devotion to Evolution
Growth requires curiosity, flexibility, and the willingness to revise what isn't working anymore. My work exists to support real embodied change, not fixed answers.
Sovereignty Over Dependency
I don't position myself as an authority to follow, but as a reflection for your own knowing. The goal is self-trust, not reliance on me or any system.

"The acceptance of oneself is the essence of the whole moral problem...
...and the epitome of a whole outlook on life. That I feed the hungry, that I forgive an insult, that I love my enemy — all these are undoubtedly great virtues. But what if I should discover that the least among them all, the poorest of all the beggars, the most impudent of all the offenders, the very enemy himself — that these are within me, and that I myself stand in need of the alms of my own kindness — that I myself am the enemy who must be loved — what then?"
- Carl g. Jung
"Nature loves courage.
You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall.
This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering it's a feather bed.”
- Terence McKenna
"There is nothing like being one-on-one with a Projector.
If you have to get something off your chest, there is nothing better than having a Projector in front of you, even if they’re not listening, because it feels like they’re right there. It feels like they’re there for you.
You have their whole energy focus."
- Ra Uru Hu (Founder of Human Design)
"The psyche and the body exist in a complementary relationship, influencing and shaping each other continuously."
- Carl Jung
"This is not about curing you because you're not a disease, you're a process.
This is about making your life more interesting to you - a life full of adventure, a life full of daily choices that create and express your values."
- James Hollis
"The essential purpose of astrology is not so much to tell us what we will meet on our road,
as it is to suggest how to meet it - and the basic reason for the meeting. Which qualities in us, which type of strength is needed to go through any specific phase of our total unfoldment as an individual person."
- Dane Rudhyar
