FOUR YEARS AGO, I FACED ONE OF THE GREATEST

HEARTBREAKS OF MY LIFE—THE PASSING OF MY

FATHER. THOUGH I MISS HIM EVERY SINGLE DAY, I

NOW SEE THAT HIS DEPARTURE WAS ALSO THE

SPARK THAT SET ME ON A PATH OF REDISCOVERY

AND TRANSFORMATION. HIS ABSENCE BECAME THE

DOORWAY THAT LED ME TO MEXICO, WHERE I

ENCOUNTERED THE ANCIENT WISDOM OF THE

SHAMANIC WORLD AND FOUND THE TOOLS THAT

WOULD FOREVER CHANGE MY LIFE.

FOR ALMOST TWO DECADES, I BATTLED ADDICTION

AND DEPRESSION. I KNEW THE CRUSHING WEIGHT

OF HOPELESSNESS WHEN NOTHING SEEMED TO

WORK. BUT THROUGH MY HEALING JOURNEY, I

DISCOVERED THAT TRUE AND LASTING

TRANSFORMATION LIES IN ANCIENT PRACTICES—

PLANT MEDICINE, KUNDALINI ACTIVATION,

BREATHWORK, AND SOMATIC HEALING.

MY WORK WITH PLANT MEDICINE BECAME THE

TURNING POINT. IT GUIDED ME TO MY SHAMANIC

SOUL FAMILY, WITH WHOM I HAVE BEEN WALKING

THIS SACRED PATH FOR THE LAST FOUR YEARS.

TOGETHER, WE’VE DEEPENED THESE ANCIENT

PRACTICES, OPENING THE DOOR TO PROFOUND

PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL, AND SPIRITUAL HEALING.

✨ I BROKE FREE FROM ADDICTION AFTER

COUNTLESS FAILED ATTEMPTS.

✨ MY SEVERE DEPRESSION LIFTED.

✨ I RELEASED THE EXTRA WEIGHT THAT HAD

SERVED AS EMOTIONAL ARMOR.

✨ FINANCIAL STRESS THAT ONCE SUFFOCATED ME

MELTED AWAY.

✨ ANXIETY THAT KEPT ME UP AT NIGHT WAS

REPLACED BY PEACE AND CALM.

THESE PRACTICES AWAKENED A DORMANT ENERGY

WITHIN ME. THEY GAVE ME MY LIFE BACK—AND

MORE IMPORTANTLY, THEY GAVE ME A DEEPER

UNDERSTANDING OF WHO I AM AND THE WORLD

AROUND ME.

BECAUSE OF THE PROFOUND GIFTS THESE

MEDICINES AND PRACTICES HAVE GIVEN ME AND

THE CLEAR MESSAGE I RECEIVED, I KNEW I WAS

MEANT TO BRING OTHERS, ONE BY ONE, TO THIS

POWERFUL LAND OF MEXICO TO RECEIVE THE

HEALING THEY ARE READY FOR.

THAT IS WHY I CREATED THE AWAKENING &

RENEWAL RETREAT—A SACRED CONTAINER FOR

ANYONE READY TO RELEASE THE PAST,

RECONNECT WITH THEIR TRUE SELF, AND STEP

INTO A LIFE OF PEACE, JOY, AND TRANSFORMATION.

THIS ISN’T JUST MY STORY. IT’S AN INVITATION

INTO YOUR OWN.
