let me introduce myself
I will start from the beginning. I was born Intuitive and empathic. From the time I can remember I could sense and know what my family, strangers and even animals were thinking and feeling. I could speak with angels and hear spirits. I thought this was normal… until I realized it wasn’t. I was fascinated with the metaphysical world and all I knew I wanted to do this lifetime was help people, help animals and make the world a better place! This led me down a very spiritual path at an early age, on a quest to know the depths of my soul and to find healing.
After college I trusted my intuition and moved to the city of angels… and it was everything I hoped for and more. I started off like every other Los Angeles transplant taking whatever job I could to get in the door and make a life. I was introduced to corporate America at a financial investment firm in Westwood. I loved it… waking early, dressing up, meeting all kinds of people but my health started to decline rapidly. As the years went on my pains, diseases and stressors just seemed to multiply. By the time I was 23 I was on many medications and had been diagnosed with Hypothyroidism, PCOS (I had so many cysts they could not see my ovaries and several were so big they needed to be tested for cancer), three lumbar herniations, chronic fatigue syndrome, PTSD, anxiety, and if that wasn’t enough, an eye twitch that lasted over a year! I knew something had to change. I was not living the life I was meant for.
You can’t possibly live in LA and not drink the juice, do the cleanse, try the eastern doctor, go to a shaman and all the other healing wonders that rest there. So, I did them all!! I started my healing journey. I took it so seriously that I quit my job, left for Asia for a month and returned aligned with my soul for the first time since I was young. I became a yoga instructor and went on to become a Yoga Therapist. I got certification after certification and dedicated my life to teaching and helping people heal. I spent a good portion of my career at a doctor’s office in Beverly Hills working with patients who had a similar health history to mine. It was incredible. The breakthroughs, the healing, the miracles. Speaking of miracles, one year after I started my healing journey I went back to my doctors and shocked them all! I had cured my incurable auto immune disease, no longer had cysts on my ovaries, had a regular menstrual cycle, healthy back, normal hormone levels and YES the eye twitch had stopped. I was healthy and couldn’t believe it. I knew this was just the beginning.
I earned my only IMDB credits from a yoga comedy series I did with Marta Kauffman (writer of Friends), worked with doctors at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, collaborated with Methodist Hospital, Medical City, The Brain Performance institute and appeared on many news stations. In 2014, I co-founded Just B, a meditation studio in Santa Monica, California and in 2016, moved to Dallas and helped open the first meditation studio, Mastermind. I’ve created and implemented meditation curriculum for Dallas Independent School District, Adaptive Training Foundation, Unique Footprints and launched the first 200-hour Meditation Teacher Training. Because of all my dedicated outreach and hard work, I was recognized and became the first Lululemon meditation Ambassador and am a continuing education provider for Yoga Alliance. And it doesn’t stop there! In 2020 I co-founded Breathe Meditation and Wellness, a studio in Dallas, and have now made my way back to the world of energy and intuition. Throughout the years I never stopped learning, growing and healing and spent time with some incredible humans, with Pema Chodron and Dr, Kristen Neff at the top. It has been such an honor and a blessing to get to do what a do. Make my purpose and passion my life’s work. To work with children, seniors, homeless, celebrities, trauma victims, veterans and everyone in-between. It’s been a ride of a lifetime and I look forward to working with YOU!
Thank you to all of the magical and inspirational teachers who have touched my soul along the way. Pema Chodron, Annie Carpenter, Kathryn Budig, Saul David Raye, Nischala Joy Devi, Jasmine Lieb, Kia Miller, Sonya Cottle, Max Strom, Vinnie Moreno, Claire Hartley, Michele Lawrence, Amy Weintraub, Durga, Neil Pearson, Douchka LeCot and all the rest.
