I’m a life coach, image consultant, and Shaman. 

As a Shamanic energy medicine practitioner, I help clear the energy of the past so that people are able to step fully and freely onto their highest path.  This is something that I’ve been studying and exploring on a daily basis for the last two years.  I’ve trained directly with Dr. Alberto Villoldo, author of 14 books and one of the foremost Shaman in the country, spending time with him personally in 2009 in the sacred valley of Peru and also this past year in the Amazon jungle.  I’ve also recently completed a year-long extensive Medicine Wheel training at The Four Winds Society.  It is an assimilation of knowledge from the indigenous medicine men and women from the high Andes of Peru, a lineage untouched by Western civilization.  I’ve been shifting from the level of the mind to the level of the heart by exploring these ways of the sacred and incorporating them into the work I’ve been doing with my clients.   

I don’t know why, but for some reason I felt like I had to hide this. I felt I couldn’t be fully open about the new energetic tools that I’ve acquired or about my experiences on this meaningful, heart-felt path. 

 Well, I’m not hiding any longer.  (I’m coming out, baby!) 

 My work is not just about being mentally strong or making your strongest impression anymore.  Of course, my work still includes those elements, but in case you haven’t noticed it now includes a deeper component.  It’s no longer about just being a Rockstar, no matter what you’re up to.  It’s about being grounded on this Rock as your reach for the Stars.  It’s separating the Rock from the Star and exploring what’s in the middle – the Heart center. 

It is still about manifesting the desires of your heart.  But it’s not only that. I feel that if we only focus on achieving our desires we’ll miss the bigger point: Discovering the real reason why we’re each here.  Attempting to fulfill our desires can also be viewed as pursuing our life’s purpose.  But what about our soul’s purpose?  What’s the difference between these two?  And how can they be aligned so that we can truly be on our highest path?  

As a Shaman, I operate in the realm of the mythic.   
It’s work that occurs at the deepest essence of who you are at your core.   

 

As a life coach, I operate at the level of the mind.   

It’s work that involves the calculated steps of moving forward on a path. 

 

They each have their place.       

 

What my clients have been realizing is that working on these two realms blends together beautifully and creates deeper, more powerful shifts in their lives.  

Shamanic energy medicine is all about healing past wounds.  It’s a healing that occurs at the deepest level of your soul.  It’s about clearing past karma so that you’re able to step fully and freely onto your highest path in this lifetime. 

Then, as a life coach and image consultant, I help people to actually take those steps.  In my view, that’s how to truly manifest the life of your dreams.  Coaching is all about moving forward in your life and winning at what you’re up to. 

However, what I’ve realized as a life coach for the last 8 years is that unless the energy of your past is cleared, it’s very hard to manifest your desires.  Sometimes, no matter how strongly you desire to move forward in your life, if you haven’t dealt with those things that are keeping you stuck in your present circumstances, it’s very difficult to have real, positive change.  In spite of our best efforts, I feel that the things that hold us back often have nothing to do with the way that we think about them.  (Keep in mind that this is coming from a guy who’s been a believer in mental manifestation, like in “The Secret“, since he’s been 16 years old).  

This was evident last week in a coaching session with a client.  We set up the session specifically to talk about creating a gameplan so that she could move forward in her music career.  But as she talked about the things she’d like to manifest, we kept going around in circles without being able to nail down a proper gameplan.  This was because she hadn’t yet cleared the energy of the previous couple of years that were filled with the disappointment of unmet expectations.  Until we cleared what was underneath and changed the way that she was holding her music endeavors, no amount of planning or forward action would make any real difference. 

She’s now able to manifest what she’d like and move forward powerfully in her life. 

What about you?

Yes, I still help people succeed.  I just have a newfound depth and more tools to work with.  I’m not relying solely on the professional training I’ve had as a life coach or my experience as Beyonce’s agent.

For me, embracing and declaring Who I Am in its fullest and most complete sense is an important step on my own path.

How can you embrace and declare Who You Are in the most honest way? 

How can you step fully and freely into your highest self and onto your highest path?
