My 10 Personal Truths
Nature is my co-creative partner, it lives and breathes with and through me.
My words are seeds that grow in their own time.
Health is the most important thing, second only to Love.
I am lifted when I lift others.
My most sound guidance always comes from WITHIN.
I light up in the company of people who practice turning knowledge into wisdom. This who are willing to see for themselves and speak from a place of experience-born knowing, compassion and insight.
Everything is frequency, I experience the world through feeling.
Meditation heals and aligns the heart, mind and emotions.
Shamanic journey is the path to self-revelation and profound inner knowing.
I am all the labels that I give myself and yet, none of them at all.
How I got here.
My career began in 1996 when every dot-com in New York City (and Silicon Valley) was a few people sitting in a room dreaming big… really BIG!
As a creative, strategic thinker I fit right in. I worked at start-ups developing strategic brand, client and website marketing strategies and later served as the Director of Internet Marketing at iVillage, a NBC Universal company and VP of Internet Marketing at Doubleday books.
In 2007 I left corporate and founded Concept 5, an award-winning online marketing agency, where for 10 years I helped entrepreneurs and mid-sized companies with their digital strategy and execution.
Then one day in 2014, during my second year of clinical herbalism school, I decided to make a BIG change. I left my company, graduated from a 3-year clinical herbalism program and worked toward becoming a Registered Herbalist with the American Herbalist Guild which I was awarded in 2023. I co-own Herbs & Owls, an organic Herb Shop and School of Herbalism in Jupiter, FL. where I work with clients and teach regularly. Fun fact: I’m 1 of only 9 Registered Herbalists in Florida.
I am an Advanced Shamanic Practitioner, personally trained and mentored by world renowned Shaman, educator, healer and best-selling author, Sandra Ingerman. I have also been blessed to have studied and practiced the ancient shamanic wisdom teachings of Q'ero Inca Shamanism with Joan Poelvoorde (The Four Winds), my beloved mentor and friend.
