Profound loss has the power to change every part of a person's life.
Loss can change your sense of identity, purpose, meaning, safety, security, spirituality, and how you imagine a future.
For many people, grief becomes more than emotional pain. It becomes a deeply human, spiritual, nervous system-based experience that impacts the body, mind, emotions, and soul.
My work exists to support people navigating that journey with compassion, honesty, spiritual understanding, and whole-person healing...the kind of support I needed when my journey after profound loss began.
MY STORY
The Moment Everything Changed
One morning, as I was getting ready for work, I received a phone call that changed my life forever. I was told my daughter, Keira, was unresponsive after a suspected drug overdose.
My husband and I jumped in the car and raced to her house, but it was too late. Keira had died from fentanyl poisoning.
In an instant, my world turned upside down.
I was overwhelmed with fear and heartbreak, and I was shocked about drug involvement. I had so many unanswered questions, and I was desperate to know if Keira was okay, where she was at now, and if I would ever be with her again.
Searching for Answers in the Unknown
The day after Keira's death, I began receiving signs that I sensed were from her.
But my mind questioned everything.
Were the signs real?
Was I imagining it?
When I tried talking about it with other people, I could tell they felt uncomfortable about it and even avoided me. I felt so alone.
Fear, Skepticism, and a Deeper Need
Even though I'm a spiritual person, I wasn't comfortable with mediumship or spirit communication with people who've died. I hadn't had any experiences with it besides what I saw in horror movies and TV shows.
But underneath the fear and skepticism was something stronger:
I needed to know my daughter was okay.
And if those signs were real, I wanted more than anything to continue a connection with her. I began researching everything I could about After Death Communication, and that's when everything changed.
Discovering Evidential Mediumship
During my research, I discovered something I'd never heard of before called Evidential Mediumship.
An Evidential Medium is a person who has the ability to connect and communicate with people in Spirit, but what makes them different is that, instead of general or subjective information, they provide evidential information that the living loved one can validate.
This evidential information may include personality traits, sharing meaningful symbols or messages that there's no way the medium could have known, and more.
This sounded like what I was looking for to confirm if the signs I was receiving from Keira were real.
Ironically, a woman I'd collaborated with in the past on a spiritual book was a distinguished Evidential Medium teacher, and I began her Evidential Medium training programs.
I'd always been in touch with my intuition, but I didn't grow up "seeing dead people" as a child, as many mediums do. I didn't let that deter me from practicing because I had not intended to become a medium or do readings for other people. However, providing evidential medium readings to others was part of the training process.
As I began to practice Evidential Medium Readings, I was astounded to discover I could connect with loved ones in Spirit for others, and share specific, validating details and messages that there's no way I could have previously known.
From Personal Healing to Helping Others
I also recognized that the way I connected and communicated with the loved ones of others in Spirit was the same way I connected and communicated with my daughter, Keira. This was so personally healing for me, and inspired a passion to help others experience that same reassurance.
After many years of study and practice with several world-renowned teachers, I became a professional Certified Evidential Medium.
While I came to know that our loved ones and our connections to them truly continue beyond physical death, I also learned something very important: Experiencing connection with my loved ones in Spirit did not automatically heal the devastation that grief still had on my identity, body, emotions, and nervous system.
Healing often requires learning how to reconnect with the soul, purpose, and deeper parts of us that trauma and grief can disconnect us from.
Healing includes finding closure when there is none, understanding after-death connection, discovering the identity your soul is calling you to become, and living life through the lens of the soul rather than trauma. This understanding became the foundation of my work.
Spiritual Healing, Nervous System Regulation, and a Whole-Person Approach
Before I became a professional Evidential Medium and Spiritual Healing Mentor, I was a well-respected and successful Inc. 500 award-winning business executive.
During my 30+ years in the business world, I experienced severe stress, burnout, and exhaustion. I began studying energy medicine and spiritual healing to cope with business stress and keep going.
I never expected that the spiritual healing techniques I learned to cope with business stress would be the catalyst for helping me recover from complex grief, PTSD, and significant health issues that I experienced after Keira died.
When traditional grief support methods like grief groups, talk therapy, religion, and medication did little to help me (and sometimes felt worse), I began utilizing energy medicine and spiritual healing techniques that have been practiced for over 60,000 years by medicine men and women in cultures around the world.
I was professionally trained in psychology-based astrology, which helped me understand my life lessons, recurring patterns, strengths, challenges, and soul calling.
I also extensively studied the effects of grief and trauma on the body and nervous system, and learned techniques for recovery.
I offer an empowering, integrated healing approach that supports the mind, body, emotions, and soul from a spiritually oriented perspective rather than a survival-mode perspective. Now I help others find connection, healing, and purpose while living after loss.
