How it began
Some moments are too great to dismiss as coincidence, and others re-route our entire trajectory. About 15 years ago, I was in a particularly dark place in my life. I was making terrible choices for myself, and I’d suffered a series of significant setbacks that made me feel like I’d hit rock bottom.
It was an emotionally overwhelming August day when something incredible happened. I emerged from the shower and had the towel over my head with my eyes closed, when all of a sudden, I saw it. Staring back at me was a giant eye! From underneath the towel, I opened my eyes and blinked a few times. I could still perceive it. I stood frozen in complete disbelief for several minutes, watching it watch me. Eventually, the eye was gone from my sight, but I remained stunned.
I got dressed and decided to “walk off” the strange experience. Soon, I found myself in the back corner of a used bookstore I’d never set foot in before. Hanging on the edge of a stack of unrelated books as if it were laid out just for me was a little book called ‘Hidden Messages in Water’ written by Dr. Masaru Emoto. It was an unfamiliar author and subject, but I took it home. That night, I read it from cover to cover, fascinated about his findings regarding the effects of our thoughts and intentions on water. His studies led to theories suggesting that we have the mental capacity to create visible patterns in our surroundings, resulting in either harmonic symmetry or a chaotic jumble.
Armed with this new information, a certain curiosity erupted within me. I looked up the author online and found out that he lived in Japan. But he was actually scheduled to conduct a presentation in my local area only 3 days from then! What were the odds of that timing?
Without hesitation, I purchased a ticket, attended the Masuru Emoto event, and came away feeling uplifted, as if my world was quickly expanding. In the weeks that followed, I’d entered a relationship with a man who’s my current day partner. Only two months later, I learned that Dr. Emoto suddenly passed away on Oct.17th—the same day as my partner’s birthday. I took it as an undeniable sign that I was, indeed, entering a new chapter.
For me, this was proof that the Divine was at play; that everything was precisely timed and interconnected.
Following the flow, my curiosity into the unknown expanded even more. I took a deep dive into studying personal development, various modalities of energy healing, and the mysteries of the quantum world. I learned that the roadmap back to my sacredness had always been present; I just hadn't realized it. Any prior (perceived) setbacks I’d experienced had actually been learning initiations and the building blocks required for something far greater and more beneficial than I could’ve imagined.
In retrospect, it all made sense.
In early childhood and throughout adolescence, dreamwork (in the sleep state) was what provided the in-roads to my personal healing. With practice, I gained valuable understanding of signs, symbols and the ability of vivid recall, which brought deeper awareness from the unconscious and subconscious worlds to the conscious.
Throughout adulthood, an interest in arts, sciences and human ecology took center stage. To add, involvement in music and creative arts taught me about the incredible healing codes woven into sound and light; how vibration translates into form and pattern. Working in the corporate world and as an entrepreneur fostered my ability to bridge relationships, use my analytical skills, and solve complex problems.
In the last decade, I’ve allowed myself space to strengthen the connection to my own body and mind. Integrating the physical, emotional, and mental aspects was key to a more responsible, grounded way of accessing the non-physical or spiritual worlds.
This is the Cliff'sNotes' version of my personal evolution. If you want to know more, I’m eager to share my learning with you. If you’re hearing the call, it would be my honour to help usher you into a more soulful and heart-centered life.
With love and gratitude,
