Soul Worker
With You + For You
I believe everyone has the innate capacity to heal and has healing already within themselves. We all have innate wisdom and intuition that has been tamped down by the cares of the world. Intentionally engaging and enacting our healing capacities has the power to collectively create change in the world.
I have a genuine care and desire for people to grow. My way of investing in a better world and a healing future is by investing in people. Carl Jung said, "The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.” That process is called soul work, and that's exactly what I help people do.
