What's your business, and who are your customers?

Tell us about yourself
Back in 2015, I found myself exhausted, depressed, and under medication for 4 chronic conditions [Sinuses Inflammation, Digestive Issues, Neck/Shoulder Pain, And Hypothyroidism]. Additionally, I felt trapped and miserable as a research manager after a 30yr career and 4 scientific degrees. To top it all off, I was signing my 3rd divorce. It took all that for me to decide to be DONE with illness and unhappiness. I took it upon myself to do whatever was necessary to become healthy and happy. That decision led me to Energy work, Meditation, and discovering that I have always been a Healer. And then, I left my 30-year-long scientific career behind to honor that full-time.
I get inspired every day by the beautiful inner transformation of my clients. There is nothing more rewarding than witnessing how they become empowered in their own healing and growth, and their smiles show up or become bigger, they start weaning themselves off of medication, their relationships change for the best, and the light of inspiration and intentionality shines bright in their eyes. And they become contagious to anyone around them!
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Never having a Plan B. I came into my practice with the conviction that this was it for me. Therefore, there has never been space for doubting its success. From that mindset, every obstacle is just an opportunity to learn how to move forward.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
Finding a balance between the behind-the-scene administration and the up-front 'doing what we love' part of it. I don't think I've mastered that yet! I strive towards it, though.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- BREATHE.
- Be crystal clear about what you want and adjust your intentionality accordingly.
- Trust your intuition. Nobody will ever know what you are meant to do as well as the relaxed&connected version of yourself.
