Tell us a little about yourself and what you do.
I’m a truth seeker and lover of life who’s always been drawn to nature and spirituality. Professionally, I work in corporate healthcare, but I also run Paradigm Expansions—a space where I help people, especially empaths, reconnect with their inner knowing through meditation and chakra-based tools. My goal is to make healing more digestible, creative, and intuitive.
What inspired you to start your personal healing journey?
About six years ago, I found myself deeply unfulfilled. I had followed the “script” of what I thought life should look like—successful career, stable marriage—but inside, I felt lost. Through meditation, journaling, and deep spiritual inquiry, I began to peel away the layers and re-learn who I was. That journey led me to where I am today.
Who do you work with, and what transformation do you aim to create?
I work mostly with empaths, people pleasers, and women who often put others before themselves. These are usually folks in caregiving or service professions. I help them develop tools to regulate their nervous systems, connect with their chakras, and start receiving instead of just giving. The transformation is about reclaiming their sense of worth and learning that they are inherently deserving.
What challenges have you faced as you’ve built this path?
The biggest challenge is the pressure to monetize quickly. I’ve joined programs that didn’t align with me because I felt like I had to move faster. But I’ve learned to trust my timing and focus on organic, authentic growth rather than rushing.
How do you reach your audience?
Primarily through in-person events, spiritual summits, and my email list. I prefer deeper, more intimate ways of connecting over purely social media-based outreach. I want people to experience the work before they’re “sold” anything.
What’s something you’re excited about for the future?
I’m writing two books—one is my take on the chakra system and the other is a memoir-style piece reflecting on my divorce and spiritual transformation. I’m also considering starting a summit or a podcast to further explore these conversations in community.
What message would you like to share with our readers?
That it’s totally possible to feel the joy you seek—right now—as you are. You don’t need to be “fixed.” Your divinity, your worthiness, and your wholeness already exist within you. You just need to remember.
“You don’t need to prove your worth. You already are enough. Just as you are.”
