Hey there, for over 35 years, I've been on a journey to rediscover that inner peace we all crave. You know, the one that keeps slipping through our fingers amidst life's chaos? Yeah, that's the one.

My story isn't just about mindfulness; it's about life's ups and downs, the kind we all face.

It’s been a journey filled with moments of triumph, but also some pretty tough challenges that made me question everything.

One of the hardest hits I took was losing my sister when I was just a kid. It's like the ground beneath you suddenly shifts, and you're left grappling with emotions you can't quite make sense of.

It's a universal truth, isn't it? Loss hits us all in different ways, but it always leaves a mark.

But here's the thing—I didn't let those tough times define me.

Instead, I found solace and guidance in some of the world's greatest mindfulness teachers.

Their wisdom became my North Star, guiding me through life's twists and turns.

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar showed me the ropes, giving me the tools to navigate life's complexities with grace.

And when things got really rough, Thich Naht Hahn's peaceful teachings were like a soothing balm for my soul.

Then there was Vipassana meditation with Satya Goenka—a revolution in my journey of self-discovery.

And let's not forget Jack Kornfield, who taught me the true meaning of compassion and inner peace.

And ultimately the guiding hand of Ron Kurtz showed me the power of orienting in the body mindfully.

But hey, life isn't all smooth sailing, right? Along the way, I faced my fair share of personal challenges—

The kind that knock you off your feet and make you question everything. From the passing of loved ones to the echoes of a painful divorce, I've been through it all.

Yet, through it all, I've emerged stronger and more resilient than ever.

So, here I am, ready to walk alongside you on your journey.

Whether you're navigating the highs and lows of life or seeking a bit of clarity and peace in a chaotic world, I'm here to help.

Together, let's unlock the full potential of your mind and create a life filled with purpose, resilience, and yes, plenty of Zen moments along the way.
