About Me

ABOUT ME

I feel I'm an open and honest person. I love exploring new things about myself and the world and growing as much as I can from them. I enjoy meeting interesting people and having real conversations. I'm open minded and try to be accepting of all people and above all, just practice being more and more myself and supporting others to do the same.

I've developed a system of healing called "Lenses That Liberate", feel free to check it out if you'd like to learn more about me:

PHILOSOPHY

To rest in the present moment and to be kindly with whatever is happening.

“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” Rumi

“Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens.”― C.G. Jung

"We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us" Joseph Campbell
