My Story
The Wound is the Gift
Growing up energetically sensitive with one parent with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, and the other with Bipolar, I grew up to experience chronic depression, anxiety, and debilitating self-loathing for most of my life.
In my quest for relief, I first turned to eastern mystical traditions, such as meditation and yoga, in my early adulthood. Yet I still struggled with poor mental health and failed relationships.
My quest for answers lead me to learn, and eventually facilitate both Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and Authentic Relating (AR) classes and events.
I also took these skills to working with SeekHealing — an Asheville-based non-profit that provides trauma-informed training and support meetings for anyone on a healing journey.
Deeper Transformation
The tools I learned with NVC and AR led to better relationships with others, but my relationship with myself was still pretty terrible. Chronic depression and anxiety made getting out of bed a challenge.
It wasn’t until I found NIASZIIH Healing & Bodywork that I found the answers I was looking for. In 2019, I enrolled in wildernessFusion, a healing school based in an ancient, earth-based philosophy and spirituality. I am currently enrolled in year 6 of the 7 year program.
Through wildernessFusion, I’ve learned how to become the “Vessel of Healing” for myself and others. Now my life is rich with the kind of peace, love, joy, and purpose that I always dreamed of. And a huge part of my purpose is to bring that level of effective relief to others.
