From the earliest memories I noticed that I was different. I guess you could say I marched to the beat of a different drum. I thrived in my own uniqueness. I always knew that I was meant to do something BIG in my life, even though I didn't know what it was or when it was supposed to happen. I knew that one day I would have no worries and I would be able to live life on my own terms. In the meantime signs started popping up, for example: I could feel peoples feelings (hello empath),I all the sudden wanted to connect with people on a healing level. I also realized that I had this urge to put my hands over people and "pull the hurt out" if I just concentrated hard enough. Of course I had no clue what I was doing and of course nothing ever happened when I tried but like I said, the signs were there. So Spirit was connecting with me but in that stage of my life I wasn't receptive nor did I know what Spirit was, or Reiki, or Trauma-Informed Breathwork. At the age of twenty I decided to give college a try. I just couldn't find my passion in any career that the college offered classes for. SO, I decided to just get my Board of Governors and see what happened. In the meantime, I had gotten married had a child, gotten divorced and gotten remarried and at the age of forty I still had no career, no confidence, no self-worth and still had no idea what I wanted to be when I grew up lol. I did pick up jobs here and there but I found out that working for others not to be the best thing. As life moves on like it inevitably does, we often find that caring for our elders comes into play and this is where my real story starts. This is where I started seeing what my purpose in life was. No, not taking care of the elderly but just hang with me, I'll explain. As my Grandparents's health started failing my Aunt, my Mother and myself took on the job of taking care of them. We decided that putting them into a nursing home was completely out of the question. My Pappaw was the first one to pass away and that was hard, but that's when I started finding my spirituality. I worked hard on this for the next couple of years and found solace there. However, I knew there was more for me to learn and more space for my growth. As time went on, my Mammaws health started declining severly and with that so did my health. I had gone to the doctor, upped my anxiety depression meds, and the only thing left that they were willing to do for me was to send my to a psychiatrist. I turned the psychiatrist thing down every time they offered. It just wasn't my thing. I felt like I had nowhere to go that could help me. Finally I was told about a Holistic Dr. in my community. I called and made an appointment for Acupuncture. I went to my appointment nervous as could be, hoping for the best and skeptical at the same time. As it turned out, the Doc and I clicked and everything I explained to her that was going on with me physically and spiritually made complete sense to her. So off we went to do acupuncture. I laid there as she poked all those needles into me like I was a pin cushion and honestly felt nothing amazing happen UNTIL she poked one into the top of my head. All the sudden I felt a popping sensation and a bunch of cool air and space. Like a straw popping open! I started noticing downloads coming in and visions. At the end of my appointment I went back to my Grandmothers house and I sat down at the kitchen table and started scrolling through Facebook. There was an add for a school called PAUSE BREATHWORK (Trauma-Informed breathwork course) that had popped up days before and it caught my interest, but I couldn't make up my mind if I could handle 6 months of heavy schooling online on my already overcrowded plate. Well, that add popped up again and I heard this voice that said It's now or never...Don't miss out on this opportunity! So I enrolled and started the course that would change my life. Not only did I complete that course, but I also completed my Reiki training with Talyn Fiore and became a Reiki Master! Unfortunately in the midst of all of this, my Mammaw passed away. Fortunately those programs saved mine by giving me the ability to inside of myself and find my safety, peace and calm. I was now able to give Reiki to myself, Honor myself by being able to confront and release the pain that I was in and gain more space for good clean energy to fill the voids. Not only that, but I realized that these modalities also gave me the ability to help others find their answers and improve their health. Helping them to Let go of anxiety, stress and pain. I finally got my answer that I had been asking for years. WHAT'S MY PURPOSE?? SoulWorks is my purpose. SoulWorks is the answer. My story is always changing and evolving and I am living my best life and my purpose is to help YOU live your best life!
