As I write this, I am especially grateful and feel lucky to be doing what I love, what I truly feel like I was meant to do. Sometimes, in my field, magic happens and you just know that you and the client are a fit. That what you are doing and saying is making a difference and that positive transformation is happening.

I help people worldwide to reduce their fears and anxieties, and especially to overcome their fear of death. In the process, they tend to expand their conscious capacity for experience in their daily lives, and generally live with more contentment and inner peace. Read more>>

To this day, I have heartwarming stories with my students. What keeps me going is when a student tells me I’m the reason why they’re still practicing, or that I’m their favorite teacher. Not in an ego trip way, but just a really heart felt thank you. I love this because I feel the same way about my teachers. Read more>>

My first career job out of college was as a fitness professional for the healthy aging department of a non-profit in Denver. I taught fitness and wellness classes for seniors and those at our affordable housing units. I started to incorporate meditation sessions at the end of my classes, and seeing how intrigued people became after their first meditation experience still makes me smile when I think about it.

I never get the opportunity to fully enjoy the events that I curate, because I’m always working behind the scenes to make sure that everything is flowing. So what really melted my heart was the fact that after my event, people that attended that I didn’t know or didn’t know that it was my event, spoke really highly about it. They mentioned how they felt safe and how good the food was and just the overall energy of the event was really good. Read more>>

There’s a misconception that esthetics is primarily about vanity, but my clients are a constant reminder that what I do is so much more. Yes, working with me can transform your skin, but it can also transform the way you feel in your body, and how you take care of yourself. One of my clients is the perfect example – she came to me with no skin issues but in desperate need of self care. Read more>>

Sharing wellness is truly my passion. Most take for granted that movement is truly a gift. Many of my clients are busy professionals , wives, mothers, caregivers, and friends and one of my most rewarding experiences was during a private session, a client said to me at the end “I never knew I could “do” yoga. She was literally in tears. Read more>>

I’ve been lucky to have many heartwarming stories in my career. One that particularly stands out is when I was working with a young man who had been dealing with severe stomach pain for years. His one goal in working with me was to be able to eat a cheeseburger without doubling over in pain for days. While I’m not a proponent of eating cheeseburgers regularly, I thought this was an endearing and extremely fair goal. Read more>>

Being a therapist and a school social worker is perhaps one of the most fulfilling careers. Being able to see and experience tangible change in a client or student’s lives and seeing them utilize the tools and resources given to them is an amazing experience. I often reflect on my first client in a therapeutic setting which I would say was the evidence I needed that I know what I am doing, and am great at what I do. Read more>>
