Educator/National Speaker/ Published Author/ Community Outreach Project Developer/ Life Coach/ Master Reiki/Mother/Woman.
We all wear many hats in our daily lives. Mine are all the same style, "advocate" would describe them best. As an urban educator, I advocated for my students and for the empty promise of equal education in our poorest areas. As a National Speaker, I advocated for the first generation college students. When I spent my weekend mornings painting front doors in and replacing locks downtown I advocated for the forgotten parts of the community. Energy work and healing is an act of true altruism as well, an offering of myself and my abilities to help those in need. Coaching allows me the opportunity to help shift my clients’ perspective to gain a new outlook and to live authentic to themselves. Teaching others to trust their intuition and break through the fear, that is the greatest obstacle to us all, is a beautiful process.
My energy work has been something that entered my life in my thirties while healing from my own personal trauma, but has been a part of me my entire life. I hope that one day energy work and the importance of our energy fields will become mainstreamed so that all can benefit from it. I truly believe everyone has the ability to resonate on a higher plane, and find their inner peace. I welcome the emerging scientific and medical studies that question our traditional two-dimensional health treatments. I’ve learned overtime how lucky I am to possess my intuitive nature. I consider myself to be blessed enough to use it in a way that fits into my life-long mission of helping others.
