my story
All what I teach comes from embodied wisdom, which means that what I preach, I first had to teach myself. I first had to meet the darkness, to discover the light.
Ever since I was little I felt a strong connection to God. Therefore I am raised as a Christian, I feel connected to this loaded word - ‘God’, even though I never felt any resonance with any religion. When I got older and I started developing a sense of self, I lost this connection with God. I wanted to become an actress; that was my north star. So when I got accepted for acting school after pretty rough auditions I was so happy!
But during my time there I endured a lot of self sabotage after a huge heartbreak. I lost all my confidence in myself and in life and developed an eating disorder as a coping mechanism. I was completely lost. Suffering from severe eating disorders, anxiety and self sabotage.
This illness eventually lead to a pretty sudden spiritual awakening around my early 20’s, where I was Divinely reminded of that connection with God -or give it any name- that I had when I was young. I started to obsessively practice yoga and meditation. I slaughtered all the self help books and did an infinite courses around yoga, awareness, yoga philosophy and spirituality. It definitely helped me to unlearn my old self-destructive behavior, but it also lead me into my new ‘spiritual ego era’.
Then I started traveling and at the end of my first big solo backpacking trip, I attended a Vipassana retreat ‘to burn the rest of my ego’. Because I thought I was ‘almost there’, but there I had to learn a whole new lesson. If you want to read more about that discovery, you can read the full story about my near death experience in my e-book: the ultimate empath guide.
That teaching taught me to embrace myself. There my whole ‘self love journey’ started: Feel to heal. I realized that my ego was not in the way, but my ego is the way. I learned that emotions are the portals to the soul and it was there I realized all I learned with my eyes closed, have to be realized when I open them.
All this life experience and ongoing curiosity towards spirit, awareness, personal growth and spiritual maturity lead me to the work I am sharing now.
Ever since I dedicate my life to the magic that brought my spirit back - by soul guidance, mentoring, acting, making music and creating content: That’s why I call myself a HEARTIST.
I am an artist who creates from the heart.
Reminding myself and each other the importance of the art of feeling.
