Spiritual Mastery

“I was able to process loss more profoundly and return to joy and gratitude”

I was formerly a teacher in Ireland, workforce optimization sales executive in UK and US, moved countries twice, divorced twice whilst remaining friends with both ex-husbands, chose not to have children, much as I love them, and am now what is commonly referred to as a “digital nomad”.

After a number of traumatic events in a short timeframe, I decided to live life differently, step “off the grid” and commit to discovering/deepening my spirituality. I sold my home and possessions in Boston US, did Ayahuasca multiple times in Costa Rica, joined various organizations such as World Happiness Foundation, Mindvalley, Life Surge and others, travelled to Bhutan and other spiritual locations, served as a missionary at a health institute in California for four months, became co-author in a series of books on Joy, Transformation, Gratitude, Abundance and Love, amongst other things. I learned to love all people, everywhere, notice and be grateful for the “small” moments, and trust the next unfolding would happen miraculously.

The Spiritual Mastery program gave me a deeper understanding of my personal journey, bringing renewed peace and reassurance that I am on the right path towards helping others find their way, even though my “destination” is far from clear. I trust my intuition and spirit guidance more than ever, believing myself to be in the right place, at the right time, with the right people. I recently lost a third sibling, all younger than I. Though deeply saddened, I was able to process the loss much more profoundly, returning to joy and gratitude for their lives, and tuned into my own chi - lifeforce energy. I am excited to contribute to a more enlightened, peaceful and joyful world.
