About Me

Ever since I was a young girl, I knew I was different. I was a trauma survivor, abducted from my mother at age three. When something like that happens to you, it puts you on the outside of life. On top of that, I grew up poor, amongst a great deal of chaos, alcoholism, and mental illness. It wounded me, but never broke my spirit. I was a bright child, eager to learn and to experience life. And then the NDE came.

I only remembered it in detail nearly two years ago, but it explains so much of my existence, like how I can see spirits and sometimes know things before they happen. It’s almost like I exist in two realms: this one and the one we can’t see.

 For decades, I had no idea why I had so many mystical experiences. Once, when I told my mother I had a dream of a double murder (which we saw on the news that very evening), she called our pastor for spiritual guidance. He told her I was an intercessor, called to pray for those in need. I was sixteen years old when this happened, and even though I was terrified, his words were solace for me. I took them seriously. I began praying for anyone and everyone who was in harm’s way, or even just going through a hard time. Soon, it became automatic. As soon as I heard a siren or an ambulance, I started praying. When I saw a broken-down car on the side of the road, I prayed (still do).

God called me to a life of service. For years, I was a psychotherapist, helping others heal trauma and find peace. In 2005, God called me to study health and nutrition, since many of the people I worked with were also struggling with debilitating health issues. All along the way, I was studying religion, spirituality, and the mysteries of the cosmos.

One morning during prayer, I asked God, “What do you want me to do?” I kept feeling a pull to teach, but I didn’t know what I should focus on or how to bring it all together. God answered very clearly. “Teach my people how to live.” I saw a flash of the words, The Church of Christos in my mind. Then, it all came together. All my life, I had been studying how to be in the world, not of it. Although I’ll never stop learning, I’ve come to a place where it’s time to put it all together. I’m humbled that God chose me for this task.
