My Philosophy
I believe that there comes a point in a person's life when she or he becomes aware that changes need to be made in order for her/him to live a more wholesome, healthy and fulfilling life. Not only does this task require courage and determination, it needs a supportive network and environment.
From this work, some of the rewards can include reclaiming or establishing one's personal power, one's self-worth, one's independence, and one's self-love.
This is what I want to help you achieve.
I want to share the essence of my life lessons with you.

My Story
I embarked upon a very scenic and meandering path before reaching this current point in my life.
I am a multi-faceted spiritual human being. As an intuitive, I was trained and worked for 12 years as a structural engineer on large scale, international projects. In addition, I've also worked for 2 years as a floral designer.
My exposure to holistic medicine began when all aspects of my life made a 180 degree change in 2004. Synchronistically, different teachers and mentors with a broad spectrum of skills and wisdom slowly appeared in my life to provide assistance and guidance.
As I began gaining awareness of the false belief systems which has formed the basis of my upbringing, my perspective in life gradually shifted and the confining/defining walls started to crumble around me. It was scary to be shedding the old and the familiar.
With this realization, I found the strength and support necessary to reshape and rebuild my life. I moved away from traditional obligations, the blame-shame game, and guilt/fear-based mindsets. During the implementation of my new self, I left the corporate-engineering world for good. I then started my Reiki training and completed my yoga teacher training. With the freedom I created for myself, I studied various topics which sparked my interest and traveled to all 7 continents to gain more life experiences. From my solo travels, I have consequently received numerous, invaluable life lessons and learned more about myself. I even learned to speak German while fulfilling my dream of living in Europe.
Since my return to Toronto, I have continued learning more modalities and am committed to volunteering my services at a local hospice. In 2022, I completed a 2200 hours Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) acupuncture program and am now a registered acupuncturist. TCM has a long standing history with me, as I grew up consuming TCM herbs as part of my regular meals and receiving regular acupuncture treatments for my chronic headaches as a child. I have now come full circle.
In my spare time, I enjoy gardening, watching movies, hiking with the Bruce Trail conservancy, and connecting with my friends and my chosen family.
Now my wish is to share my cumulated and synthesized knowledge and experiences with you and empower you to formulate a new and better you.
