My Awakening story...

Started in 1994 and has been progressing ever since. I was a suburban housewife, living in the Bible Belt of North Carolina, studying Psychology and working for the Planter's life Saver company. One day I begin to feel this intense pulling in my gut. At first I had know idea what was happening to me, but instinctivelyI knew it was time. But what I didn't know was, time for what,? what was I suppose to do. Should I seek a psychic or somebody that could tell me what it was time for. As the voice within me got louder, I knew what I needed to do, and it wasn't going to be easy. I needed to divorce my husband and follow my inner guidance and move back to Tucson my birth place. There I met a man that was so familiar to me, and I looked up to God and told him that I wasn't ready, there was a part of me that understood and a bigger part of me that didn't. This man looked like something out of a Wild Wild West movie. He woke me up to learning about energy, past lives, karma, and power, as he used his power to keep me locked in an invisible web, with physical abuse. As he knew my power was greater than his, which I had no idea. As my world was crumbling around me. I met a Native American women who did Akashic Readings, who enlightened me to a whole other world. After several readings with her, it propelled me with great strength forward to leave this man and move to Florida.

In Florida I became a Licensed Massage Therapist and began a spiritual path of seeking knowledge and healing, for myself, and others. I took every class I could from past life regression, meditation, intuition, manifestation, psychic abilities and many , many more. I was also reading every self help, and spiritual book I could get my hands on. Yet something was still missing. As I was doing a training for my hot stone massage certification, I received a Shirodhara treatment, which unblocked a deep trauma that I had no idea existed. I discovered that I had been sexually molested as a child starting at the age of 5. Well, all the pieces of the puzzle started to fall into place of how I was conducting my life, and the choices I was making.

It was now time to dig deep and heal the traumas and wounds that were buried deep within, blocked and completely forgotten about. It is never easy facing the darkness the unknown the past of buried memories. But I was determined, as I sought medicine ceremonies from the mountains of the Andes to the Jungles of the Amazon to the oceans of Bali. Still something was missing, all the classes and studying I still was not able to see, to hear, to connect with spirit, with my guides. Where was the key that opened the door to that world. So many others seem to have found the key, what was it, where was it. I could feel energy but It was hard to trust what I was feeling, to fully trust my intuition. As many thought I was crazy with my woo woo predictions. But I didn't let that stop me, it just propelled me to seek more and to find the key that would unlock everything.

I finally found the key in 2017, when I was chosen to attend the advanced program with Sadhguru and 750 other people. It was and incredible four day experience, which opened my heart. There was the key that I had been looking for. I had no idea that my heart was blocked, as I considered myself a very loving and giving person. But I was very protective of my heart, I learned that I wasn't loving myself, did not feel worthy of being loved. Deeper pieces of the puzzle to heal. As I begin to expand my heart filling it with love, it blossomed into a beautiful universe that I could now see, hear and connect to spirits and become a channel of pure light and love. Bringing messages to those through Akashic Readings and Healing Angels of IET and now through Quantum Energy Healing.

As my spiritual growth and my self healing journey continued I was becoming lighter and lighter embracing all of me with clarity of mind and a deep sense of inner peace, emotional freedom and a knowing of who I truly am. Taking me to the next challenge of my life, the loss of my son. This day occurred in March 2021, nothing can prepare you for the loss of your child, even though my son was 38 he was still my child. As I spent five months caring for him and watching him decline until he took his last breath in my arms. When he was born, I had a deep inner knowing that he would never make it to 40, I pushed this feeling deep within and never told anyone. I could only hope that it wouldn't be true, I was always denying my inner knowing.

With the loss of my son, my life as I knew it, was coming to an end. As I ended my relationship, I lost one of my best friend's (my husky). I closed my thriving practice, sold my home, became a Master Teacher in IET (Integrated Energy Therapy). Completely surrendering to the unknown with absolute faith and trust. I jumped and bought a house site unseen, in the Catalina Foothills of Tucson Arizona, and completely remodeled the entire home by myself, all in two years. I threw myself into a sacred cocoon of healing the pain.

Emerging from my scared cocoon my shell cracking wide open cleansing the depth of my soul releasing the pain held deep within feeling lighter with a higher vibration experiencing a deep connection to all of life. Walking the path of my own heart, loving myself unconditionally. I begin creating a healing retreat, Desert Starr for those who wish to relax, rejuvenate to heal your mind, body, and spirit to let go and surrender to the very core of your being, blossoming into the fullness of your divine light radiating for all to see. Completely embraced with unconditional love.

I then completed a nine month priestess training with Schamet Horsfield of Awaken the Priestess within, who was divinely guided to pass the torch to me. After a year, it is with great excitement and honor to be bringing these teachings of the Priestess Path to all of you who are ready to Awaken, Align, Transform and Shine. To step fully into the fullness of you, a super amazing being of unconditional love with a pure connection to the Divine God/Goddess in you and all around you.

Love ,Light,Ease, Grace and Gratitude
