I have always, my whole life, enjoyed being the the company of my Elders. I appreciate their Wisdom, and know that they are true teachers! In my high school years, I was heading to become a Special Education teacher. One of my first cousins was born with multiple special needs. I loved being with him, and learned so much from his innate wisdom. From that experience, I began volunteering with Special Needs children and young adults in my teen years. When I went to college, I got a little side-tracked, and did not actualize my dream. However, I soon became interested in Holistic Health, and for many years after my first year of college, I worked in Chiropractic Health Care. I was an office manager/ Chiropractic Assistant for 10 years. This launched me onto a path of healthy living, which includes eating healthy, staying active and fit, practicing Mindfulness, Yoga, Meditation and more. Many of my clients have been Dementia clients. Even my own beloved Mother, had Dementia. I was her one child that stepped in and took care of her from the time she was diagnosed, until her passing. I am so grateful for that experience with her. I am also a Chair Yoga teacher. Until the Pandemic, I was teaching, weekly at a local assisted living home. My passion is caregiving. Fully and completely. It is my Life Path. I enjoy being in Service to others. I love making a difference is other's lives by honoring everyone, no matter what differences, struggles or history they may have. I know for sure, that my little pebble of love in the ocean of one's life, has a rippling effect. I am so proud to have had the blessing to stay home for 20 years and raise my two children. They are now thriving, beautiful, compassionate, loving adults. This was a gift, which taught me unconditional selfless service. I am proud that my children and I have a very loving relationship, and so proud to see them out in the world making their own marks through love and compassion.
