Hello!! I am truly honoured that you are here.
I am a Spiritual Psychology Coach, Amazon Best Selling Author and Reiki Master. I spent over 20 years working in social services supporting, educating, and advocating for singles, seniors and families.
I worked primarily with those who experienced mental illness and addiction by providing crisis support and suicide intervention. I have combined that knowledge and experience with the teachings of universal law, science of mind and spiritual principles. I am currently studying with Soulciete and New Thought Global as a spiritual practitioner and am certified as a spiritual and business coach through Soulciete and Emmerson Theological Institute.
Now, in my coaching practice, I guide those who feel they can’t get ahead, by showing them their true power within; by healing trauma, and by reprogramming their subconscious mind to live the life of their dreams.
My Story
There was a beautiful young soul, named Laura. She had a sparkle in her eye, she was a free spirit. Laura loved to dance, swim, sing, play musical instruments, make art and socialize. Laura was always told how talented, beautiful, smart and funny she was. She was capable of anything. She went through the early years with typical childhood experiences of which some that had hurt her along the way.
When she got to high school something drastically changed. The sparkle in her eye was gone overnight. From the outside looking in she seemed to be troubled. Inside she was confused, hurt, lost and alone. How could the world be so cruel? The kids were separated into “cliques”; they were mean to each other; so many were bullied and she could feel their collective pain. She didn’t know she was an empath or what that even was. She only knew what she was taught, which were some really good values and morals. But she wasn’t taught how to navigate this world and society as a highly emotional person.
She began to ask what the meaning of life was? Why would we go through all of this pain, just to have children and watch them in pain, just to die? She asked this question to many and no one seemed to have the answer.
Her parents became very worried about her as she wouldn’t talk, eat or socialize. She was taken to hospital and assessed. The questions that were asked were very generic. There was nothing unique or any attempt to truly understand her or what she was experiencing. This was her first experience with “the system”. She was admitted into hospital, she was scared and alone and didn’t want to talk. She decided that she had two options to either take her life or fight to live in a world she didn’t like. She decided that she didn’t want to hurt her loved ones and started talking. The doctors’ told her that there was something wrong with her, which in her mind meant she was broken and no good. After two weeks, recommendations were made and Laura went home.
She struggled significantly through highschool. She suppressed almost all of it. Despite the pain Laura maintained her successful disposition, or at least what society would suggest a successful adolescent would look like. She went on to secure a lucrative job at the age of 20 and bought her first house at 21. Although it looked like she had it all, Laura became more and more lost. That year she decided to start taking medication to see if it would help. She also became addicted to fast food and put on 60lbs in one year. Things started to get really dark now. No matter how many times she tried a new therapist, read a new book, watched new documentaries, tried new cocktails of medication she remained numb.
When Laura was 26 she came across the documentary, “The Secret” At the end of the movie it asked, What is the meaning of life? She was happy that someone was going to answer her question. The movie said, “life is what you make it”. This answer gave her new hope and a sense of control, and she thought that maybe she would get her life back? She slowly started weaning off the cocktail of medications she was on and decided to use healthier coping mechanisms. Things improved slightly but she continued to just go through the motions of life to survive.
When she was 28 she met a man she soon fell in love with. A year later they moved in together and 6 months after that she became pregnant. She wondered how she would be a mother since she was unhappy and unable to care for herself adequately. Again, she went through life doing what she thought she “should do”. …Have a baby shower, get engaged, have a stag and doe, a wedding and two more children. She loved birthing her babies, it was the only time she felt proud of herself and worthy of any form of attention and love. But having the babies caused a lot of loss. Her true identity was already lost but having the children sealed the chance of ever recovering or finding her long lost joy.
Laura struggled over the years, especially as a mother. She constantly attempted to fix herself. She received medical support and different diagnosis. She was an angry woman, constantly looking after everyone and their needs. Supporting the home, running the show, ensuring everything was in order and looked after. Her life was consumed with activities that weren’t intrinsically motivating and didn’t fill her up. Even when there were moments that should have provided joy she couldn’t feel them because she was so addicted to being angry and alone.
Right before her 40th birthday she hit another deep depression. She watched a documentary called “Heal”. It talked about concepts she had heard before but this time she heard it differently. It presented energy medicine and the power of our minds, how we could heal ourselves. Something shifted and she knew that this needed to be explored. That summer she started to fill her life with more activities that she enjoyed, rock hounding, art, woodworking. She started to learn about Reiki and enrolled in some classes. She started making and selling crystal jewelry. That fall breakthroughs started happening. She was offered a promotion and not long after that offered another job in the country where she and her husband had always wanted to live.
Although life seemed to be improving, her body started showing signs of extreme prolonged stress. Struggling to make sense of this life, still in chronic pain, still lost and alone, she continued to move forward. She started to do the inner work to heal at the same time trying to figure out what she would do for a living. She started to visualize what she wanted her life to look like. Not long after that she stumbled across a community and teacher that would change her life.
Finally, she found her home. She found people that spoke her language, found teaching that she knew were the answer to what she had always asked. She followed the instructions and was the best student she could be. She showed up knowing that if she invested in this, her life was about to finally change and that she was going to reconnect with her 6 year old self, full of joy and peace. As she healed her trauma, and began to love herself the stars started to align at a rapid pace. Things weren’t always perfect but as she had neutralized the stress in her mind and body it was much easier to handle life’s challenges as they came up. She reprogrammed her subconscious mind and let go of her old identity, the one that remained angry and resentful. Sure, she was sad to see her go and grieved and resisted, but she knew if she didn’t let go of the imposter that she wouldn’t survive.
As she shed the layers of her old self and the sparkle in her eye returned, this time even brighter than before. Laura learned to love and accept herself. To find joy in life and a deeper connection with her children and husband. They travelled and learned together, enjoyed the wonders of life. Laura was a free spirit on earth spreading love, leaving no person unchanged, initiating new beginnings and activating their life purpose.
