I come from a long line of healers.

My mom's a nurse. My great grandmother, Flora, used to wrap a towel around her head and tell fortunes. The healer line goes back far in my lineage, according to my Akashic Records.

Using the she/her pronouns, I'm a highly sensitive person, an introvert, and empath.

For the first part of my life, I felt like a human lint brush.

I picked up all kinds of feelings, body sensations, and energy from the people and environments around me. I had no idea what to do with this.

Like many empaths, I got sick.

From there, I started to learn how to manage my sensitivity and gifts.

These days, I’m a huge fan of it and use it to guide my life and my work.

My life is a spiritual journey.

It's part of everything I do. As a teenager, I began to awaken to this — mostly expressed as “fuck this shit” rebellion that as a teen I did extraordinarily well.

Since then, I’ve had teachers and experiences that reinforced what I already knew deep inside.

It’s amazing to be on the planet right now with you.

I love learning and hope to never stop, especially:

• How your body stores, remembers, and heals from trauma.

• How your brain codes information, creates memory networks, and makes meaning.

• Social/reparative justice and how race shapes so much of what I’ve experienced in my life … and how to unravel that and devote my time, energy, and resources to continuing this work.

• Shamanism and journeying, art therapy, Tarot/Oracle card reading, herbal medicine, energy medicine, aromatherapy, reading the Akashic Records, growing flowers and vegetables, making flower essences, and the role of whole foods/organic diet in feeling healthy.
