On Becoming...
In 1999 my whole life changed. Well, I changed my whole life.
I was living a life that no longer fit. I don’t think it ever did, but I forgot who I was and so fit myself in where I felt safe.
And then I reconnected to Nature and discovered magick. I bought a Tarot deck for fun, for a Halloween party. I was drawn to their symbols. I was opening to deeper meaning.
When I began to remember who I was, I felt alive again. I started living as my authentic self and everything changed. Extracting myself from my old life was painful. I stayed too long. When I woke up and started living more as myself, things came apart fast.
It took me a long time to fully realize my purpose. In fact there is still discovery going on. Our purpose isn't fixed just like there's no fixed self. Our purpose may change as we move into different seasons of our lives. But there is a thread that weaves it all together. I now see that as I look back over the past few decades.
I would now say my purpose is to dive into the wisdom of Nature, of the Ages, and into my own experience, to connect and synthesize what I find and share that with others. I do this as a spiritual life coach, poet and writer.
It can be frustrating to not live the life you know you were meant to live and scary to try. Self-awareness and owning the life you want will ignite change. Don’t resist. Allow the changes. Your life will be enriched by your willingness to transform. And it will make you more powerful than you ever imagined.
We need your authentic self. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Don’t let the past hold you back. Work through your shit. It’s the greatest source of inspiration you’ll ever have besides that which comes from an even deeper place within. Use it as fertilizer, don’t let it pile up and sicken you. Transform it, use it and watch your life bloom.
You can live the life you want. It beings within. And it begins now if you’ll let it. Are you ready?

The Formal Spiritual Path
My story is about the path of self-discovery and transformation. More formally it's a path that I've been on for over 20 years. First I became a Priestess of Ma'at (the goddess of harmony and justice) in the Fellowship of Isis and then a Licensed Practitioner of the Science of Mind and Spirit Philosophy through Centers for Spiritual Living. Actually, I resonate with the interspiritual movement and follow many paths including Paganism, Buddhism, Science of Mind, Creation Spirituality and Nature Herself.
Currently I'm studying life coaching in all i's various forms at the Transformation Academy.

What is a Word Priestess?
Since ancient times women have been healers. Some heal with their hands or herbs,
some through counsel, some with music and others, like me, with words.
To me, words are powerful magic and medicine.
