About Me

I’ve been on a search to fill a void—seeking approval, status, acceptance, and a sense of belonging. My career as a creative entrepreneur didn’t satisfy my soul’s needs—not even a little. Eventually, I took stock of my life and realized that most of my choices were rooted in fear or a desire to impress, rather than a genuine longing for happiness or evolution.

At the core of my suffering was a deep belief that I wasn’t enough. I thought I needed to be fixed—by a therapist, a plastic surgeon, a healer, teacher, shaman, guru, or plant medicine. Over more than a decade, I immersed myself in various modalities: therapy, healing diets, trauma courses, ceremonies, yoga, fasting, meditation, the study of the Tantras, and most recently, Qigong.

I cycled through countless programs, often meditating for hours a day, filling every minute with mantras and teachings. At the time, I believed the length of my practice and my discipline were signs of spiritual health. I also placed my self-worth in the courses, certificates, and titles I thought would make me legitimate.

With time, I’ve come to see that it’s the in-between moments—the quiet, unstructured ones—that truly reflect where I am. It’s the way I listen to and care for myself. Will I remember my highest self? And in the moments I forget, can I soften into my humanness—acknowledging that I am a fragment of God, submerged in matter, here to remember I am part of all?

My suffering has been a profound teacher. It led me to the gift of self-retreat—time and space to truly listen, to feel, to let myself be moved. That act of simply being has become a portal. Life, in every direction, continues to invite me into deeper presence. The source of my joy is no longer something outside of me—it’s in the wonder of being myself, and uniquely experiencing life through me.

These days, I’m most inspired by the magical technologies of the body, mind, and spirit. (Thank you to the many teachers who’ve shared their gifts.) We are always connected—especially to the unseen worlds. Practices and techniques remain invaluable tools to increase awareness, but I no longer see them as goals. I’m not an expert in any modality, but I do feel called to share and contribute to our collective evolution.

If you feel drawn, you’re warmly invited to join us in this shared remembrance—Together Alone.

With love,
