How It Began
Kneeling on the floor, begging to be saved from this torture.
That was the pivotal moment of my personal recovery journey.
I struggled to find my place in this world in my early teens. I felt this need to be in control; because my transition to high school felt very chaotic, and I began to focus on food and my physical appearance. This led to a hospitalization and diagnosis of Anorexia Nervosa.
I vividly remember my hospital stay. First, I saw a psychologist and nutritionist, but I remember needing more. Then, as I recovered, I remember having this intuition that I was called to need more spiritual healing.
After discharge, I closed the door of my eating disorder and continued life as a typical teenager.
In my early twenties, as I was still trying to figure out my life, I revisited my eating disorder journey as I tried to understand what the lesson was for me. Although I was no longer in a place of restriction or body shame, I was still experiencing the desire of "not being good enough." This showed up in schooling, relationships, and physical appearance as perfectionism.
I knew I needed to do something about this drive to" be better and do more," so I looked at some unconventional therapies.
I realized that my healing would need to include a spiritual aspect, which I realized the system lacked immensely.
This led me to earn a Masters of Social Work specializing in eating disorders. I felt this need to help others experiencing a similar journey to mine. I dedicated myself to this field of work for over ten years, realizing that conventional recovery did not include any type of spiritual healing.
I decided to go on a Soul Awakening Journey and started studying in CONSCIOUSNESS COACHING™.
My personal work with a conscious coach made me realize that there were a lot of wounds that I had yet to work through. I finally was able to get to a place where I started seeing myself differently and loving myself more and more.
This Inner freedom sparked my desire to share my knowledge and help others that craved this spiritual healing, which led me to this career as a Soul therapist.
