From Corporate Junkie to Cacao Ceremonialist, Poet, & Singer
Cultivating freedom, fulfillment and joy in every day life
My Journey: Freedom from the inside out
For most of my life, I normalized feelings of the hard gripping hand of anxiety on my chest, the heavy weight of depression on my shoulders, and the exsistential dread filling my mind every.single.day from living the illusion of what is referred to as the "American Dream".
Even after spending several years in my own personal healing process, while I felt some relief, it was inconsistent and ultimately found myself spiraling back into the same patterns and coping mechanisms.
All I ever wanted was to feel FREE
And while on the outside, it may have looked like I achieved that freedom I desired - having completely abandoned the traditional "American Dream" by leaving an unsatisfying marriage, quitting my corporate career, persuing my passion in the healing arts, travelling regularly and generally spending my time as I pleased....
I still felt trapped inside.
How could I truly be free if I still felt trapped after all I had freed myself from?
In my contemplation of this, I realized my [egoic] mind was deeply attached to suffering. A not-so subtle form of self punishment simply for exsisting and being an imperfect human. At the same time, I became aware I was trying to do the healing work from the logic and rationale of the mind along from a place of deeply wounded masculine.
It was hard to admit that to my self that the way I was approaching my spirituality and healing wasn't working out how I'd hoped
(It's always a hard moment when you accept it's not all light and love!)
I had a soul deep yearning to transcend beyond the perceived limitations of my mind and to expand into a way of living and being far greater than what I believed possible.
I knew this work was calling me.
I knew that being on this path could and would help me achieve that intangible sense of freedom I had craved for so long.
I knew I came here to be the chain breaker of my lineage and to reclaim the power of the witch simmering in my veins.
To live this wild, imperfect, messy human life to it's fullest as I do all the deep work.
I could feel all this stirring in my bones.
But everything felt so heavy and was teetering on the edge of exhaustion and burn out from spending years riding the never-ending exsistential merry go round on this spiritual quest
There had to be a better way ....
What changed *everything*
The body remembers all - even the unmentionable things that the subconcious mind blocks out. By becoming more present in my body, I was able to clear internal blocks, stagnant energies and trauma while reprogramming patterns and behaviors at rapid rate. I expanded my nervous system capacity to feel the full emotional range of this human experience.
And those feelings of anxiety, depression, and exsistential dread were no longer constant.
They had been alchemized into freedom, fulfillment, and joy.
The REAL kind. Not the fluffy, surface level version of these qualities that equate to the light and love BS plastered all over social media.
The soul deep resonant kind, in which I am literally a different person inside and out, because I shifted the way I was showing up in my personal process.
Now, I get to spend my time dancing along the edges of my highest expansion, which is exactly where I love to be.
And life is so much jucier for it!
I'd love to share all this with you so you can experience your own inner expansion into deeper levels of freedom, fulfillment, and joy too!
