2020. Somehow, that is a complete sentence. Because of one thing or another, this was the year that changed it all.
It started off great. I had just opened my brick-and-mortar wellness center, I had just returned from a free vacation in Hawaii, life seemed so full of potential… and then came the shutdown. The overwhelming thoughts of “what now??” The fear of losing control. The forced change.
I was lucky enough to have a residual income from one of my businesses to get through the shutdown, to help us survive. But it wasn’t enough to sustain the brand-new business I had just opened. Sadly, as folks were returning to work, I was closing my doors.
In that same week, my sweet grandmother Laura passed away. A woman of incredible virtue and strength, Grandma Laura had always been a rock for me. My angel- the one person in this world that could somehow make me smile through any tears.
And in that exact same week, I lost my baby… a missed miscarriage, a term I had never heard before. It seemed surreal- to experience so much loss in just seven days.
Now, I know that there are many, many terrible things that happen in this world and I know there are people who have suffered greatly. Loss is loss. It was a few months before I realized that I wasn’t handling it so well. I needed help, a community that could support the depths of what I was feeling.
“I teach self-love. I teach human beings that through this process, through the experiment, what you discover is that you can trust in your ability to navigate on this plane, that you can find within yourself a love that is very special.”
— Ra Uru Hu, founder of the Science of Differentiation
I needed help to begin loving myself again.
I opened myself to the desire of this support system and soon found myself a part of an online spiritual community that unlocked something inside of me. It was through this community that I found Human Design.
I discovered new layers to myself that felt like HOME. Learning about my design was like looking into a mirror for the first time- I was able to see all the things that were ME and all the parts that were NOT.
It was liberating to find a system that was purely mechanical in its structure and yet offered so much depth and insight to this experiential life. I understood myself better. I understood my family better. I was able to see how incredible this knowledge was; something burst inside of me, and I believed and knew without a doubt I was meant to share it with as many people as possible.
I had been using essential oils for years yet it dawned on me, there was a whole new way I could implement them into my life. I started incorporating my essential oils into my deconditioning process. I recognized the one reason I had always consistently used my oils was to support my emotions; learning about emotional authority was like getting that big permission slip that allowed me to finally FEEL all the emotions I was experiencing. It seemed so serendipitous that my use of essential oils had been supporting that process for years and yet now I could apply them in a whole new way that evolved my BEing. I began experimenting with connecting to my definition by anchoring myself with specific essential oil blends. And the deeper I got into my experiment and integrating the knowledge into my cells, the more ways I found for essential oils to play a part in my deconditioning process. I fused my passion for both Human Design and essential oils into a unique approach for my health and wellness. As I introduced Human Design to those closest to me, I realized how deep my desire to share this system truly is. It is an honor to be a certified Living Your Design Guide, recognized through the International Human Design School, and a true pleasure to offer the Living Your Design course to you.
I know I am not alone. Have you felt trapped in a nightmare?
Like your foundation has been ripped from underneath you? Are you looking for balance or have a desire for understanding why things unfold the way they do? Maybe you’re ready to dive deeper, become more intimate with the darkest parts of yourself, but think you could use some help?
What generates the most passion in life for me is sharing the tools I’ve learned with you. I have 15+ years of experience as a bodyworker and now certified yoga teacher, 6+ years of knowledge and experience using essential oils and several years of experimenting with my own design before becoming a Living Your Design Guide; it is an honor to offer you a new approach to health and wellness authentically tailored to serve you. I've used everything I know to empower myself and those around me and I have an insatiable desire to share what I know with those who are experiencing their own foundational shifts!
It would be my pleasure to support you. Are you ready?
