"She remembered who she was

and the game changed."

~ LALAH DELIA

If you love podcasts as much as I do, you can listen to my story instead for even more insight and spiritual ah-ha moments.

For a very long time, I had no idea that there is a different way to exist than most of us have been taught.

I didn't know that our DNA is encoded with wisdom just waiting to be expressed, that life on Earth is tipped in favour of the miraculous, and that magic isn't just limited to the world of Harry Potter.

A quintessential good girl, I did what I was told. I thought keeping my head down and working hard was the secret, even if my body and spirit felt like they were breaking down. I thought the flip between hustle and apathy was par for the course. I thought what I created in the process was ''it''. 

My path was one of high achievement-or-bust. I have two MSc degrees (one in Human Health, Nutrition and the other in Epidemiology); a PhD in Cancer Epidemiology and Epigenetics; a Doctor of Naturopathy degree (board certified); and more than a dozen publications in international scientific journals. I went about as far as I could go in academics and science and traveled all around the world to do it (hello to all my friends in Scotland, the Netherlands, Australia and India!).

Don't get me wrong; I have so much gratitude for the privilege of being educated and everything I encountered along the way. But for the most part, it was a journey that fuelled my ego. My soul? Not so much. 

I hit a point where on paper, my life looked perfect. I had checked off everything that I "should" do -- both personally and professionally-- in order to be a successful and happy human.

But inside, the anxiety was mounting. My body was rebelling with strange symptoms. Something had to give, and I looked everywhere outside of myself trying to fix it.

The game changed when I awakened a deep remembering inside my cells, that was patiently waiting for me to hear it.

To be human and alive is something that most of us take for granted. I believe that as creator beings, we are here right now on Earth for a reason (and it isn't to keep our heads down, accept the status quo and be miserable).

I realized that I wasn't broken and I didn't need fixing, I just need to re-learn a few things.

Now, this is what I know to be true:

  • The point of self-development isn't to escape our life. It's to cultivate awareness so we can make new choices (if we want!).

  • The brain is powerful and we have the ability to use it to consciously create any result we want (yup, manifestation is real).

  • Emotions are the compass of our soul. The name of the game is to feel them, not numb them out.

  • It is safe and necessary to challenge our conditioning.

  • The future is rigged in our favour when let nature inform our cells and tap into our unique energy flow and intuitive wisdom.

  • These bodies that we live in are phenomenal vessels that are always working for our benefit, even if it doesn't always feel like it.

  • Bad things happen to us and in the world, and most of them aren't our fault. But it is our responsibility to create solutions if we have the awareness and the tools.

  • We live in a time that is begging for people to turn their light and joy all the way on.

Choosing something different than the status quo isn't always comfortable,

but who you become in the process is 100% worth it.

Everyone is different, and your journey won't look the same as mine. But, when I committed to transforming my inner landscape, my outer world responded in the most beautiful and supported ways.

I officially retired my Naturopathic medical license, which opened up a whole new world of global entrepreneurship and a health & wellness business that serves all of my core values.

I got divorced in a loving and conscious energy, which liberated two souls for their highest good in this lifetime.

I re-built my life, found new love, and at age 40, welcomed the sweetest baby boy, Earth-side. His name is Toivo (which means 'hope' in Finnish), and he is super cute.

I learned to trust myself and have my own back, which means that a life of deep purpose, connection, and the capacity to hold difficult emotions is always available to me.

I cut the people-pleasing and fear of judgment. Every day I wake up excited and certain about what I am here to do, no matter how crazy and unstable the world seems.

I'm here for it. On the good days and the bad. 

My light is all the way on, and I'm so happy you found me. 

Let my story be your permission slip. Life can be different than you were taught it has to be. It can be messy, beautiful, present, joyful, abundant & intentionally created. Heal yourself, heal the world. The process is simple. It's never too late. 

You just have to decide.

And once you do, I promise I can help you create miracles.
