What I came to realize was that the one person's heart I was breaking was my own. I didn't feel like I fit in because I allowed others to write my story for me. What makes one person happy should make you happy, right? Nope. Guess again!
Becoming a mother cracked my heart open in ways I had never dreamed. It sent me on a path of spiritual awakening, allowing me to heal and answer the questions that had long gone unanswered in my soul. It taught me how to surrender.
It was in this place that I began to remember the beauty that was always inside of me that I had simply forgotten.
it's because there is!
There are gifts
inside of you
waiting to be shared
when you give yourself permission to see them.
I always felt deeply connected to something greater. Growing up, the things most people feared, I simply did not. As a kid, you would find me climbing trees, hanging out with animals, catching frogs, bringing home garter snakes and playing in the field of cows and horses beside my house. Being in nature with animals grounded me. It always felt like home.
As I grew up, I began to realize just how different I was. I loved to sing and when loved ones passed on, I was often asked to sing at their funerals. I still remember feeling my great-grandmother come to me, holding my hand as I stood up to sing. I could not understand why people were so sad. I couldn't feel the distance most people felt after they lost someone. I could only feel the pain they had in their heart when someone they loved passed away.
It was my first passion. I started singing at school events, at church, and at weddings. Singing came easy to me and led me down the path of pursuing a career as a professional opera singer. I spent my summers performing in Europe and singing concerts with orchestra. In 2010, I became a recognized grant recipient by the Ontario Arts Council and was later asked to sing at Rideau Hall for the Order of Canada.
Music brought me joy, it still does, but as time went on I felt like I had another calling. I never thought I'd be doing this work, I just knew I loved helping people. My friends would tell me, I give the best advice and when asked my thoughts on a person, they would always say "Wow, you really know how to read people". Little did I know what I was actually doing.
Becoming a mother changed me. After struggling with infertility for years, to later be blessed with 3 beautiful children naturally, I had no choice but to dive into my own healing journey.
Motherhood connected me to a new version of myself I didn't believe existed. It taught me to trust that there was always a plan, even when we can't see one. I started listening to my heart's whispers and stopped trying to put other people's happiness above my own.
The more I loved and trusted myself, the more guidance would come through, always pointing me in the right direction. The ideas and dreams that would flood my mind when no one was looking were powerful and I finally became brave enough to see them.
This sent me down a path of discovery to learn different healing modalities including Reiki, Breathwork, Meditation, and Life Coaching, among others. Today it brings me great joy to guide others on their healing quest for wholeness and to provide assurance that we are so much more connected than what we have been told to believe.
We are always being guided towards the best path for us. Allow me to guide you in feeling a deeper connection with your loved ones and to help you to find safety within being to listen to the whispers meant for you.
