I help people find their inner compass, or guidance system. So many people tell me that they: can't reach their goals (health, relationship, career) ; feel stuck in endless negative patterns; or believe they are capable of more, but struggle to share their gifts. Does that sound like you? Many of us base all our decisions on outside authorities/expectations and rarely connect with and consult our own inner compass. We 'go with the flow" and hide our deepest gifts, even from ourselves. But if you aren't calibrated to your own truth, you can't set your GPS.
