Sound Bites
- "My mission now is to work with people who are willing to heal themselves in a deeper level than just physicality and really working on healing their nervous system."
- "Healing the nervous system is not a simple fix, but it can be done with consistency."
- "I've been on my own for quite a bit and my childhood was just very tumultuous altogether. There was a lot more bad than good, even though now I'm really trying to look at only the good."
- "If someone's trying to get you to provide a service for them for no cost or vice versa, I would say that's probably a red flag for sure."
- "Don't second-guess that if someone's like, oh, well, they're such a good person and it's someone you trust and it's like, well, oh, I didn't feel that but maybe I should because they know more than I do somehow. It's just like lack of self-trust. If the vibe is off, goodbye."
- "If you get a tarot reading and you feel scared or if someone has given you like really bad energy or this is coming to you in a negative way, that is not what tarot is about at all."
