Supporting PractitionerMEDICINE WOMAN, GUIDE, SEER
My medicine journey began a decade ago, as I sought to heal my inability to physically digest food, and the depression and anxiety that left me feeling stuck and powerless in my life. My past consisted of 16 surgeries, medical trauma and a violent father– you can imagine the impact.
I knew there was more to life and refused to settle. My path took me to Africa, where I was initiated and trained as a provider of the sacred wood, and later reinitiated with a tribe carrying a direct, pure line to Krystic Consciousness.
After years of studying integration through the WEL-Systems framework and deep work with the wood, I am blessed to say I now feel empowered, at peace, and in flow with my life.
As a natural healer, seer and medicine woman, it is with honour and reverence that I hold space for you— following you into the dark and guiding you back into the
light– with gentleness, humour, and deep presence.
Living as a role model of authenticity, integrity, love & courage, I hold space for the inspiration and integration of coherent, heart- based functional living systems. Through joy, laughter & play I help to guide you through
deep processes, facing shadows and softening into an embodied evolution.
