I was bedridden for months and entirely dependent on others. I was very unwell, but deeply focused on the process of healing. Early on in healing, I didn't recognize just how unwell I was, the toll the accident would have on me, and the journey ahead to unravel all the pieces. It took me two months to be able to move just a single toe again. After that, I had to re-learn how to walk. In hindsight, that was the easiest part of my healing journey.

Each day for the next five years was an uphill battle.

As I tried to heal, my life and health slowly fell apart. Piece by piece, my health, home, partner of 13 years, dog, friends, family, identity, business, and so much more were all stripped from me in a relatively short period. It was as if I was watching the life I worked so hard in creating, dying slowly in front of me.

In many ways, it all felt completely out of my control—as if a force outside of myself was leading the path of destruction, despite that I was focused on reconstruction. And the areas I knew I needed to change deep within had a mind of their own and were very resistant to the process of rebirth.

I was physically on my feet again within that first half-year, and I looked well to others, but behind the scenes, my health was suffering significantly.

Each year, I seemed to get worse. I had chronic inflammation, extreme fatigue, chronic muscular and joint pain, significant digestive distress, swollen lymph nodes, intense rollercoasters in my emotional health, hormonal dysfunction, heart and lung distress, and so much more. I had what I now call “mystery illness”.

I couldn't sleep well, I couldn't focus, I couldn't see past my own emotions, and I couldn't find my way out. Despite my healthy habits and determination to reverse the health conditions the accident and life changes created, I was suffering.

I sought every specialist, every blood lab, every doctor I could, every holistic practitioner for years, and more as I tried to figure out why I was so unwell.

Years after the accident, still in the thick of it, I was told by an infectious disease doctor that "Perhaps it was time to begin focusing on something other than your health. There is nothing wrong with you". After the complete shock, asking him to repeat what he meant, I understood that he thought "it was all in my head," that my labs showed nothing, again. However, I knew deep down that infection was driving it all.

I left angry. And with a new fire inside.

Between my own experience and working with others, I have learned what it really feels like to be in the "ick" of the non-linear path of deep healing. I learned that each step is important and will likely unfold in ways that you don't expect, and that's okay. I learned that reliance on only physical/body-based health practices would leave most people stuck and confused. However, when it comes to physical healing, I learned that if you don't address the root causes of symptoms and restore the body with natural solutions, knowing that you are INNATELY WELL and purely need to remove the limitations that keep you from that truth, you aren't going to get where you intend to be.

"Bandaids" don't work for most conditions – even if they are easier or more comfortable. 

I also learned how deeply rewarding it is to heal and come so far. I learned patience, trust, and compassion in depths I never knew possible.

In this journey to pursue my own health and life restoration, I fine-tuned my skills as a practitioner and now apply the same skills to my clients. Perhaps most powerful, were two things. First, I dug even deeper into true root cause resolution healthcare and up-leveled my client successes even more, by doing so. Secondly, I recognized and connected to my incredible gifts and universe-given role as an intuitive and energy healer. 

I was great at what I did before all of this, but now, I am exceptional.

I trust myself, my skills, my resources, and my abilities deeply. I have been able to apply the principles in a whole new way with my clients. I see, hear, know, and serve my clients in ways they have never been supported. 

I know what it takes to heal because I had to do it myself.

And today, I stand here not only walking but running. I stand here so connected to my intuitive gifts that I apply them with reverence and certainty to my clients' plans. I stand here as a loving anchor to my clients as they unravel the pieces of their own life that stand in the way of their health. I stand here able to support clients at all different levels, with various symptoms and needs, because of this journey. I stand here inspired to help others embrace the programs I have created, in the spirit of taking responsibility of their own life, by providing efficient and result-driven roadmaps for their success. After all, health truly is our greatest wealth. When we lose our health, we lose our most precious commodity – time and quality of life.
