I am a pragmatic idealist.
As a self-proclaimed pragmatic idealist, [I don’t know what to say here!]
I used to have a lot of guilt and shame for the resources and opportunities that were available to me. There were so many people who had it worse than me—why do I have all these things that I don’t deserve? What’s wrong with me? Why do I struggle so much when I can access so many different forms of support? It really ate me up, drove me further into self-hatred and depression.
The realization that changed my mindset is: I ended up being very very lucky in this lifetime, and I can use my experience and supports to help others. I can focus on filling my own cup and catch whatever spills over so I can share that abundance with others.
I’ve had to figure out a lot of things on my own, and I managed to find my own path, but at the cost of a lot of pain and energy. Quite frankly, it sucked not having anyone to point me in the right direction, and I want to help others who feel like they’re lost at sea.
My approach to helping others focuses on providing the tools and a blueprint to build autonomy and self-reliance. You’re the only one who’s been by your side your entire life, and you’re the only one who can decide to change. At the same time, you aren’t alone, and you don’t need to undertake this gargantuan task by yourself.
I’m not here to give you “The Answer” or to predict your future. I’m not here to be your yes-man and listen to your interpretation that you hold to be fact. I’m not here to coddle you or to let you sit back while I do all the hard work.
I’m here for you as a mirror with a fresh perspective on your situation. When I read tarot, my intention is to bring to light that which you already knew, felt, or believed. It can be difficult to get in touch with those painful memories, and I’m here to remind you that you exist in the present.
I love solving puzzles and problems, and I know how to ask the questions that lead to the heart of the matter. I’m here as a catalyst, to give you the push you need to get going towards a better future. I will help you to define a SMART goal, and we’ll create an action plan starting with something you can do immediately during our session.
