About this speaker
My journey has involved a lifelong fascination and inquiry into awareness, purpose, the human condition, love, sexuality, spiritual connection, soul wisdom, expansion, learning, unlearning, meditation, physiology, health, disease, exploring aliveness, sexuality, death and grief.
I am a Group Facilitator, Educator, Coach, Guide, and Energy/Bodyworker in the fields of Consciousness, Breathwork, Sacred Sexuality, Somatic Sexology and Shamanism. Some of my certifications include specialities such as Certified Sexological Bodyworker and Certified Shamanic Breathwork Facilitator. I have supported humans in these realms for over 10 years. With individuals, groups, in person, online and at festivals around the globe. I have offered this via one-to-one sessions, coaching and energy/bodywork and via facilitated intensive group residential retreats.
Currently, I mainly offer deep-dive experiential retreats. ‘The Journeys’ is a series of 5 -7 Day Retreats I created and facilitate to explore and reset our relationship to Pleasure, Breathwork & Energy. These retreats include educational components however they are primarily deep embodiment journeys harnessing Somatic, Tantric & Shamanic Explorations.
I have been part of the International School of Temple Arts (ISTA) Tribe since 2012, as a Lead Faculty member from 2015 to 2022. Leading many level 1 SSSEx and the level 2 SSSIn journeys around the globe.
In my earlier life, I was a Diagnostic Medical Scientist for 20 years in research, clinical practice and direct patient care. I bring this powerful experience of the physical manifestations of dis-ease to my current offerings. Thirteen years ago, a crushing grief event changed everything and led me to this 'work'. Over the last thirteen years, I have been grateful for and lovingly humbled by the opportunity to support thousands of human beings to connect with the power within themselves to heal and transform.
I enjoy bridging the apparent illusion of the gap between science and spirituality with love and respect for both.
