Such important work… this business of self-exploration, inner transformation, and awakening to the potential of who you truly are. I am beyond honored to have had the opportunity, once again, to hold space for a group of beautiful, courageous souls who consciously chose to “do the inner work” by attending my “Alchemy Transformation Retreat” in […]

This one really hit home, and at the same time, helped me acknowledge the depth of my own evolution. While spending time trying to understand certain esoteric, intellectual concepts can be both rewarding and difficult, it’s also primarily safe and requires relatively little courage or vulnerability. But experiential understanding is an entirely different beast. To […]

The medicine is inside. Inside me, inside you. It’s sitting right next to the pain and discomfort, obstructed by the conditioning of the mind, obscured by all the fallacies that have been put upon you about who and what you are.

Each separate thread is a breath… of pain, of joy, of frustration, sorrow and loss, of ecstasy, elation and deep satisfaction. Each inhale is a moment of divine […]

Over the last many months, I, like many of you, have been moving through a deep evolution, and one of the things that has surfaced for me with great clarity as a “next level” was to begin offering Facilitator Trainings. This idea has been presented to me countless times over the last several years, as […]

Lately, I have been having so many conversations about the extraordinary changes people are moving through, in both their outer world and their inner world. And for me personally, the last several months have also been a time of profound evolution that has increased exponentially in both intensity and pace. Old, deeply embedded and outdated […]
