‍I have always been a deeply creative soul, with a soft place in my heart for the quiet beings of the earth, the critters, the trees, the waters, the sky, and the subtle layers of life that exist just beneath the surface. My awareness of something deeper has kept my curiosity, imagination, and sense of wonder alive throughout my life.

The forest became one of my greatest teachers during a time of profound grief after my daughter passed unexpectedly. It was the only place where my broken heart could breathe without explanation. The forest held me through my unraveling, and on that living soil, I slowly began to feel myself again.

When a little light returned, I felt a quiet desire to give something back to the place that had held me so generously. Through a series of serendipitous moments, I discovered flower fairy dolls and immediately knew what I was meant to do. I began creating them and leaving them anonymously throughout the forest. People found them, loved them, and began reaching out through my creative page, Cosmically Earthen. Over time, my little fairies traveled across the world, each one created in honor of my precious daughter.

As time went by, I realized they held many more purposes, quiet healing, connection, remembrance, and that I was deeply connected to each one I shaped. The Fae taught me how to listen to subtle realms, and I will share more of that journey in my blog.

Over time, other abilities surfaced, slowly at first, then with more clarity. It took years to find my rhythm and to trust the quiet steadiness of my own presence. One thing has always remained true: I love supporting those who are open to discovery… those who feel ready to reconnect with themselves in a deeper way.

✧ How I Perceive & Work

Over time, I have come to understand that I track threads.

For me, tracking is not something spooky, intrusive, or separate from everyday life. It is the way I notice what lights up, what repeats, what connects, and what seems ready to come forward.

I often perceive through patterns, structure, movement, images, body-sense, symbolic impressions, geometric forms, words, essences, emotional tones, and quiet shifts within a person’s field.

This is the living thread I listen for.

My practice of gazing is a form of embodied presence. I sit with the living world, often with trees, light, shadow, symbolic images, or the field of what someone shares with me, and allow what is ready to be noticed to come forward.

My background in drafting, combined with years of meditation, energy work, and deep observation, supports the way I perceive structure within subtle movement. I often notice patterns as they form, shift, open, or reorganize within a person’s field.

In some sessions, these perceptions may be reflected through written language. In others, especially Transformational Soul Illumination, they may also become physical or visual anchors, such as a companion piece or key drawing.

These creations are not symbolic guesses. They are reflections of what was perceived, witnessed, and translated through the session field.

I approach this work with care, steadiness, and respect for each person’s experience.

I do not diagnose, direct, or override. I observe, listen, reflect, and hold a clear, supportive space where change can unfold naturally.

My intention is always that you feel:

*safe

*seen without pressure

*supported in your own process

*respected as the authority of your own experience

Many people share that they feel at ease in my presence right away. I hold that trust with great care, and it guides how I show up in every session.

At the heart of my work is this:

Embodied Presence. Living Thread. Soulful Arriving.

I track the living thread beneath what longs to be seen, named, and brought into form.

✧ Path & Practice

I have been attuned to Usui Reiki Master Level twice, Master Level Shamanic Reiki, and certified as an Angel Card Reader. I also received instruction in Charlie Goldsmith’s energetic approach, which refined my sensitivity to subtle electrical currents and movement within the body.

Alongside my energetic training, I hold an Associate Degree in Liberal Arts and am nearing completion of my Bachelor’s Degree in Creative Writing with a focus on Nonfiction. This path has deepened my devotion to authentic expression, personal truth, and the creation of spaces where lived experience can be honored with care and clarity. I have also experienced how writing from an open, receptive state can become deeply transformative, allowing what has been hidden, held, or waiting beneath the surface to move into language.

Although I was never formally trained in Light Language, it flows naturally into my drawings, symbols, dolls, written reflections, and sessions. My hands have always been deeply receptive, sensing, receiving, and shaping what is felt into form.

During sessions, Reiki may arise as guided, along with symbols, light language, intuitive impressions, body-field awareness, and subtle energetic movement. The work may move through the chakra system, nervous system, meridians, axiatonal lines, central column, toroidal field, and wider subtle field.

At times, I may become aware of supportive presences or impressions that feel connected to guides, ancestors, angelic beings, animal medicine, connection with the Higher Self, or loved ones who have passed. I do not seek to define, control, or force these experiences. I simply notice and share them gently when they feel supportive.

Each person is always free to receive what resonates and leave what does not.

There are also moments where I receive imagery that feels connected to other lifetimes, deeper narrative layers, or symbolic memory within a person’s field. I hold these as meaningful reflections rather than fixed truths, offering them with care and without interpretation so each person can engage with them in their own way.

A quiet but central part of my work is what I call Transfigurative Presence: the ability to sit with someone so openly and clearly that their own inner clarity begins to emerge. My role is not to counsel, direct, or decide for you. My role is to listen, witness, reflect, and hold the field with care. When gentle guidance or invitation arises, it is offered for your reflection only. You decide what resonates, what is useful, and what belongs to you.

I hold a space of steady witnessing where truth can rise on its own.

✧ The Living Thread

I have come to know myself as a tracker of the living thread.

Whether I am sitting with a person, a symbol, a story, a handmade piece, or something discarded and waiting for new life, I listen for what still holds light. I notice what is hidden, tender, scattered, luminous, or becoming, and I help bring it into visible, speakable, usable form.

This is the current beneath my sessions, my spirit art, my writing, my dolls, my drawings, and my illuminated creations.

The form may change.

The thread is the same.

✧ Closing

Everything you find within The Elemental Lantern™, the sessions, the dolls, the candles, the artwork, and the stories, has been shaped through lived experience, devotion, and a sincere desire to offer warmth, clarity, and support.

My intention is simple:

To offer a space of embodied presence and gentle illumination, where the living thread can be noticed, honored, and brought into form without pressure or expectation.

So, here I am.
With my heart open.
With the Lantern lit.

Tracking what lights up.

In Soulful Gratitude,
