About Diane

I was born with Healing Gifts

Like every empath or intuitive, my life started with coming to terms with my incredible sensitivities and natural healing gifts. 

I had a profound experience when I was five years old. When stargazing during a summer meteor shower, I felt my conscious mind connect with a Universal knowing that continues to support me today.

As a young child, I could walk into a room and know what was going on without words being spoken. This deep awareness made me feel different from others. It felt hard to fit in with other children.

In my formative years, I experienced the confusion and hurt of childhood emotional abuse from my well-intentioned father. I learned to suppress my emotions and avoid conflict to stay safe. Victimhood followed me throughout much of my life and spilled over into how I related to others into adulthood.

My biggest shortcoming was ignoring the inner guidance that so desperately wanted me to listen. Instead of following my intuition, I deliberately made decisions that benefited others instead of myself. There was a war going on within me.

Yet within these confined walls, I never lost my sense of self. I knew I was capable and had a lot to offer the world.

I studied health sciences in college, had a professional career, married, and gave birth to two children that I am so proud of. I left my career to raise my children and eventually started taking Reiki classes that instantly “lifted the veil.” I discovered that I have natural healing abilities.

My sensitivities found their place in the world!

Hitting My Rock Bottom

My rock bottom point came when I was on a sacred travel tour in the Mary Magdalene lands of southern France. The area and land were very familiar, even though I had never been there before. It felt like I had come home.

During a Fall equinox ceremony on a remote plateau near Rennes-le-Château, I experienced what felt like a spiritual breakdown. I was completely broken and realized I couldn’t continue living as I had been. I couldn’t live with clipped wings anymore. I needed to fly!

A significant change in my life was required.

This pivotal experience confirmed what I had known for years—that ending my long-term marriage was the right thing to do. 

Yet I was scared and couldn’t see the way forward. I felt like I stood all alone in the world.

However, I prevailed and took the empowered steps required to move my life in a positive direction.

Learning to Choose Myself

I courageously faced the darkness of my inner world and bravely began the long, and sometimes painful, journey toward healing.

As I was going through the pain of healing and transformation, I often felt reckless and raw—like I was running with scissors in rebellion and could fall and hurt myself at any time. But I never gave up. Healing and personal growth were within reach because I was willing to do my inner work.

The toughest moment in my healing journey was when I separated from my marriage. I felt like I stood all alone in the world.

Even though I knew in my heart that it had to be this way, it was difficult. My body, heart, and soul were shouting at me to make this change. I listened and took empowered action.

What I had thought was a spiritual breakdown in France was instead a spiritual breakthrough. This life-shattering experience gave me the courage to say “no” to self-suppression, and “yes” to following my expansive heart and soul truth.

It was time to become whole!

Divinely Guided Note: A year after this awakening experience in Southern France, I discovered that my genetic lineage is from this rural region, Languedoc-Roussillon, Occitania. I was predestined to be on that plateau! It was divinely guided. I could see all the connections that led me to this moment in life.

How I Embrace Life

I embrace living in flow versus pushing through obstacles. Shifting to a curious mindset helps me find creative solutions. I include the wisdom of my heart when making decisions, instead of only using my mind. Pausing before I act is my new habit.

Living in alignment with my heart and soul fulfillment is as precious as breath itself. So is living in authenticity.

Becoming a better version of myself is a life-long practice that I’m committed to. I enjoy growing and expanding with education and direct experience. Listening to my intuition, I follow opportunities that will expand my innate healing gifts.

I have learned to lovingly embrace the parts of myself that had been deeply injured, ignored, and devalued. I accept, love, and embrace the wounding of my Inner Child, the parts of me that can feel small and scared at times. My Inner Adult knows how to step into support these scared parts so they are not ignored. And when life feels overwhelming, I ask my inner Wise Women to guide me with a creative higher vision. By connecting with my inner wisdom, I find answers from within. I no longer chase answers by looking outside of myself.

I am thankful for all the valuable lessons I have learned throughout my life, including the difficult times, because they made me who I am today—and I appreciate where I stand!

Because I did my inner work, I no longer fear conflict or difficult circumstances. I know how to confidently set healthy boundaries, use my voice, and prioritize my needs.

I follow my life path with confidence and know how to fulfill my desires in a way that is deeply nourishing to my soul.

I live my truth, authentically and unapologetically. My heart and soul connection have expanded, and this has led to greater abundance and joy in my life.

I am pinching myself constantly at just how awesome my life truly is! And the best part is, I get to live my passion every day!

My Beloved Pets

I had two wonderful animal guides who supported me through this self-empowerment journey. I am forever grateful for their kind and loving presence in my life.

Peaches was my beloved and angelic sweet yellow lab. She grounded and energetically supported me through difficult times. She also lifted me in joy and showed me not to take life so seriously.

One thing I especially loved about Peaches was how she got me outside. We hiked Mount Major almost weekly throughout her life. She showed me how to connect with the healing power of nature.

Peaches changed the course of my life. When she tore her ACL and was facing surgery, I took a Reiki class to help her healing process. I received an instant connection to my natural healing gifts that day. Reiki created the tangible connection to “all there is” that I had been seeking all my life!

This divinely guided event created the momentum to open my energy healing practice in 2008.

I always thought of Peaches as my angel dog. Sometimes I catch glimpses of her in the corner of my eyes.

My sweet Siamese cat, Jenna, was also angelic in nature. She was sweet, quiet, and always knew when I needed a snuggle. She and Peaches were best friends and would often be seen sleeping together on a bed pillow.

Her contribution to my life was to hold space for me as I learned to self-advocate and step out into my new empowered life. She soothed my heart when I felt lonely. Jenna lived to be 21 years old. I catch fleeting glimpses of her at times too.

I am forever grateful to Peaches and Jenna for supporting me with love and care. I miss them dearly.

Sacred Travel

Sacred travel is something I deeply enjoy. The call to visit energetic sites around the world is in my bones. Sometimes I am not fully aware of why I am drawn to a certain location. But the depth of the experience is always revealed by an unexpected profound experience. There is no question that I am deeply guided and blessed by these experiences. It is truly magical.

I know beyond a doubt that my cells, DNA, and light codes are upgraded as I travel. These global experiences accelerate my energetic upshift and my life path becomes clearer. There are Earth grids and cosmic alignment at these sacred sites. The Heaven and Earth connection at play influences our human experience and activates our multi-dimensional bodies.

As a soul activator, I share embodied codes wherever I am so that others may have the opportunity to upgrade, shift, and align with their soul mission.
