About Me
Guide • Coach • Facilitator
My personal transformation journey was the catalyst for the creation of Marigold Wellness. Its inception stemmed from a time when life felt especially challenging. I didn't have the vocabulary at the time, but the hardship I faced was my portal towards change.
Many things in my life felt chaotic and out of alignment. Faced with the choice of either moving forward in a healthier way or continue spiralling, I chose to take a spectacular journey inwards.
It was the first time that I'd taken an inventory of all the stages and phases of my life:
I reminded myself that the bedrock for my deep appreciation of the natural world: earth, water and sky came from my rural upbringing. My childhood was ripe with complexity, but it fuelled my wonder. To help process what was going on in my immediate environment, I discovered early on that lucid dreaming and dreaming practices were important sources of personal healing, which helped build my understanding of signs, symbols and precognitive messaging.
In university, I had a knack for the arts and sciences, receiving my Bachelor's degree with honours in human ecology. Music and creativity had always been central to me, eventually extending into work as a musical and creative artist. This taught me about intricacy of the information embedded into sound: vibration, wavelengths and frequency. Experiences in the corporate world and as an entrepreneur showcased my natural gifts of problem solving, organization, leadership, and the ability to bridge relationships.
Equipped with all of this information, I made a commitment to evolve mentally, physically, emotionally –– and spiritually! The component of spirituality was something I hadn't ever focused on in the past. But it turns out that it was key to discovering parts of myself that had been dormant since childhood. I devoted hundreds of hours in and out of the classroom learning about the power of the mind, working on my own personal development and getting acquainted with various healing arts.
The product of all of those experiences is what led me here.
I have a story to share, and I believe that my story is one that could help others grow through times of transition.
I'm a certified Master in the Usui Reiki Ryoho system of Reiki. I'm also a sound healer, life coach, a breath work and mindfulness coach, and a practitioner of the shamanic arts. A month prior to Covid hitting our collective awareness in 2020, I followed my intuition and became a certified end of life doula. I now belong to Death Doulas of Ontario, an incredible network of end of life doulas whose mission is to "continue to be a vital part of a global movement to better educate, advocate and empower everyone in their end of life." To follow, an additional calling led me to help individuals struggling with their grief and bereavement journeys.
My lived experiences and willingness to follow my intuition have been the best teachers.
I'm here to share my gifts when you're ready.
Wishing you peace, love and abundance,
