unconsciously, turned off my abilities. ​In my 20's to early 30's, I found myself depressed at times and feeling like I had no purpose. I had no idea how to figure it out. Things began to change for me after speaking to a psychic for the first time. I initially thought she was “crazy as a loon.” As the session continued, I realized she was “getting me.”  I soon began reading books having to do with souls, intuition, meditation, chakras, and found myself looking for a teacher. I began my studies with the Barbara Brennan School of Healing (BBSH), where I realized my passion lies in healing and transformation. After BBSH, I attended Donna Evans Strauss's Living from Grace program studying traditional psychology, ancestral healing, and working with Grace. These schools (fabulous teachers) were invaluable to my ongoing personal transformation and knowledge of the energy field (thoughts, emotions, experiences, longings, gifts, and purpose). Strongly built into my education is how our understanding of the energy field has great value in the transformational journey.   More recently, I graduated from the Wisdom of the Whole Coaching Academy (WOW), which combined coaching while honoring the totality of individuals. WOW beautifully integrated my career as a nurse with transformative work. ​ Not long ago, I worked with Patricia Pfost and Anne Altvater's New Wave of Groups, whose teachings highlight the evolution of working in groups and presence.  ​ Since the beginning, I worked closely with Franz Feige, my coach, counselor, and mentor. He has been critical to my growth and the development of my internal knowing.  ​ My path deepens my appreciation for the unique value of our individual gifts and life path.
