My Story
Understanding that our higher self, the natural world and the Spirit in all things is always guiding us, is key to finding your purpose and living in balance. It's taken me a lifetime to understand my unique path and be true to myself. Although I am grateful to the many teachers I have studied with, my strongest guidance has been from Nature and my internal guidance system, via my dreams and the intelligence of my own nervous system. After a very long, arduous journey with stress and slowly learning to trust my heart and instincts, navigating life with my inner guidance has been the key that unlocked the door to the restoration of my own well being.
IT ALL STARTED WHEN...
Each country that I have traveled to and every animal that has crossed my path has taught me about myself and the absolute perfection that exists in this world. I have found that timing in life is everything and everyone is your teacher and also your student. We are all here guiding one another mirroring our ancestral wounds, so that we can create something new in this world-- this amazing planet that is our home. We cannot create a new narrative, if we do not understand our own past and that of our ancestors, as well as the environments we have chosen to live in and the challenges and learning opportunities they present.
Life Long learning
My years of experience in the corporate and small business world, as well as in the furnishings industry, gave me strong design, organizational and business/analytical skills, but always left me wanting more from life. This desire for greater meaning and purpose eventually led me to pursuing my heart in a wide variety of ways from rescuing animals, to gardening, to the Japanese art of kintsugi, which focuses on repairing broken things. I have always had an innate sense of harmony and balance since I was a child- a direct reflection of my Moon in Libra.
My spiritual path began in the 1990s while living in Washington, DC and later returning to Western New York where I began working with birds of prey and doing wildlife rehabilitation as a volunteer at a local wildlife center. My shift in perception, where I developed an ability to see energy and the realm of Spirit, also occurred during that time. Eventually I pursued animal communication training, but it was the animals themselves, that taught me the most whether wildlife I rehabilitated or the companion animals that would live with me. It began a profound personal awakening that would test my typically analytic, rational mind. I began to realize that I had been having mystical experiences for much of my life and that animals and Nature had always been communicating with me, though I only recently began to understand many of these experiences. My inner work has been a continuous ongoing path of self revelation and communication with Nature and the realm of Spirit since that time. Becoming familiar with astrology and the cycles of the Moon and other planets and how they affect both individuals and nations, created a framework for understanding of the laws of resonance and how we repeatedly draw certain people and circumstances into our lives in order to gain greater wisdom and make wiser choices.
I graduated with a BA in International Studies from SUNY at Buffalo. My professional certifications include Interior Alignment, Feng Shui, and the Complete Creative Process for Creating Gardens, Homes and Workplaces for the Soul. I have been licensed by New York State as a wildlife rehabilitator for more than 20 years, however recent focus has been on creating and providing wildlife habitat by restoring ecosystems on my property and observing the transformation. My diverse life studies and experiences with astrology, dreams, plant and homeopathic medicine formed a foundation for my environmental, geomancy and coaching work. This multi-layered approach toward life has helped me to form a better understanding of the patterns within Nature and the Universe which affect our life path and our long term wellbeing.
