1. Can you tell us about your journey into becoming a clinical hypnotherapist and astrologer? What inspired you to pursue these paths?

Every modality I use, I started out as a client first. I saw how implementing these techniques into my life changed it for the better, and through this experience, I was drawn to learn them myself to support my clients in making positive shifts in their lives. Before becoming an astrologer and clinical hypnotherapist, I was offering Reiki as my main healing modality.

Anxiety was what drew me to clinical hypnotherapy and has been a key instrument in my journey with releasing anxiety. The subconscious mind has more power over our thoughts, feelings, and decisions than people realize. The subconscious mind houses what are called implicit memories, which can go all the way back to childhood, even infancy, and these memories directly affect your quality of life as an adult. They completely shape your thoughts, emotions, actions, and ability to make choices in alignment with your highest good, and these are memories you may not even be consciously aware of. They are tucked away in the depths of your subconscious, and even though you do not have any conscious awareness of them, they are playing a huge role in your current life.

Using clinical hypnotherapy, I was able to remove and shift some of these implicit memories that were causing a lot of anxious thoughts and emotions. My life has been on an upward trajectory since then. When we are able to live in a positive space, life flows in a positive way. Countless clients have also seen positive results with this technique through clinical hypnotherapy.

My journey with astrology was different. It was something I was always drawn to, but I had no idea how in-depth it went. The more I learned, the more I wanted to learn. The guidance and insight my own birth chart provided not only created stepping stones for me to move into a phase of life that felt amazing but also led to my business flourishing in a different way, my mental health improving, and life starting to make sense. It allowed me to relax into a flow of trusting the process, and life kept getting better and better. This is what led me to offer guidance from astrology as a service.

2. You mention helping women release what no longer serves them. Could you share a specific example of a client success story where your methods made a significant impact?

Absolutely, I would love to! I have worked with so many amazing women over the years that it is hard to choose just one. The first client that comes to mind is someone I helped unlearn passive communication tactics she picked up in childhood. She was at a phase where her marriage was failing because of this (communication is such an important foundation for any successful relationship), and she knew she wanted to work on fixing her relationship but didn’t know how. By releasing implicit memories in her subconscious and helping her leverage her strengths outlined in her birth chart, she was able to not only step into a confident version of herself that she loved but also improve her communication and her husband’s communication. Her marriage started to flourish, and she is now teaching her children and extended family the importance of open and honest communication, even when it feels hard. This is the power of healing—you don’t just heal yourself; you are able to help heal those around you too.

3. What strategies do you use to ensure the sustainability of results for your clients, especially in a virtual setting where personal accountability may vary?

Whether a session is virtual or in-person, there is always a level of accountability needed from the individual seeking growth. I am able to support, guide, and teach my clients the tools to improve their quality of life, but ultimately, it is up to them if they want to make the necessary changes and take the necessary steps to get the results they want. Clients who come to me truly wanting to make major progress toward their goals and dream life are the clients I support with accountability. We work together over six months; each session is catered directly to their needs, as everyone is on their own unique journey. Each session builds off the last, and clients are given key areas to focus on between sessions, which we debrief on at the start of the next session. These clients also have access to me in between sessions to support their growth as an extra layer of accountability. These are the clients I see the most significant growth and progress with, and I am unbelievably proud of each and every one of them. There are no quick fixes when you are looking at achieving sustainable results. You wouldn’t go to the gym and expect to have abs after one session; this is no different.

4. Your approach emphasizes aligning both the conscious and subconscious mind. How do you integrate these two aspects in your sessions to achieve lasting results?

I love this question. The conscious and subconscious mind are both equally powerful. When you are looking to make major forward progression in any area of your life, there needs to be shifts and growth in both areas. Your thoughts and words have a tremendous impact on what unfolds in your life, more than most people realize. If you are only working with the subconscious mind but allowing the conscious mind to run wild with negative or limiting beliefs, this will create a misalignment in energy and make the forward progression you seek much harder. Conversely, if you are only working with the conscious mind and not the subconscious mind, there is a high potential that you are putting in a lot of effort with no forward movement because there is a block in your subconscious or a negative thought pattern running in the background, creating a misalignment in energy that hinders you from moving forward.

Major growth comes from working with both the conscious and subconscious mind, creating a match in energetic frequency (also known as vibrational alignment). This is where you are able to attract positive outcomes into your life. The law of attraction is very real, as real as the law of gravity. What you put out, you will get back.

5. Could you elaborate on the Intuition Accelerator course and its benefits for those looking to enhance their intuitive abilities?

Absolutely! The technique I teach in the Intuition Accelerator is one of the first things I teach clients I work with on a six-month basis. We all have the ability to access our internal compass, which is our intuition; many of us simply go through life letting this lay dormant within us. The reason this is so important is that when you make decisions through intuition, you move yourself forward on a path toward alignment and abundance. When you make decisions through fear or ego (it can often be tricky to tell the difference between intuition and fear), this is where you are actually moving yourself away from where you want to be. This course teaches you to understand the difference between fear and ego, how to identify when you are making fear-based or intuitive choices, and how to open the communication between you and your higher self, which is your purest form of intuition. No one knows better for you than your higher self.

We often make fear-based decisions to keep ourselves “safe” because the unknown can feel uncomfortable. These decisions feel logical and are based on previous experiences. They are often what you feel must be done because it “makes sense.” When I finally learned how to make decisions through my intuition (instead of fear/ego), it completely changed the trajectory of my life and my quality of life. When decisions are made through fear or ego, you open yourself up to patterns repeating themselves or situations that keep you stuck, leaving you lingering in the phase of life you are trying to escape or avoid. When you make choices through your intuition, you catapult yourself forward toward your highest alignment. When you live in alignment, life starts to flow in the direction it’s meant to.

By following my intuition, I created the space to completely change my life. I shifted from a corporate career to one that lights me up every day while allowing me the freedom to travel all over the world. I absolutely love my job (something I never thought I would be able to say). If I can step into my dream life and live a life I am obsessed with, so can you. The Intuition Accelerator is a great support in getting there. I would not be where I am today without it.

6. Looking ahead, what are your future goals for Ocean and Oracle? Are there any new services or initiatives on the horizon?

As I grow, my business grows as well. I am a manifesting generator in human design, so there is never a shortage of ideas. I recently updated the Applied Astrology Digital Course, expanding its content by adding four more weeks of material. I have learned that change is an asset to my business, and when I listen to the intuitive nudges I receive, magic happens. There are a few new things I am working on in the background that will be out later this year. I have also started to partner with different independent businesses to run workshops within their coaching platforms, which has been so much fun! Although much of the future remains unknown, one thing I can guarantee is that I will always bring courses and services to you that I 100% believe in and have experienced the positive impacts of myself first.

7. Outside of your professional life, what hobbies or interests do you pursue that bring you joy and balance?

Absolutely anything to do with the ocean is where I am the happiest. I grew up on the Great Lakes in Canada and learned how to drive a boat when I was nine. I have always been drawn to water. When I am not working, you can find me diving, swimming, surfing, boating, hiking the New Zealand coast, or simply sitting by the sea, watching the waves and hoping to spot marine life. Most recently, we had orcas roughly four meters from shore in front of the house. It was absolutely incredible!

8. How do you maintain a sense of connection and community with your clients despite the virtual nature of your sessions?

One of my gifts in this life is being empathic, which allows me to connect with my clients on a deep level of understanding, regardless of whether they are in a chair beside me or on the other side of the world. Energy is energy, regardless of the distance involved. For those familiar with astrology, my MC is in the water sign of Cancer. For those new to this term, the MC outlines strengths and areas of success in your career. Cancer is all about intuition and creating a safe and nurturing space. One consistent piece of feedback from my clients is that I create a safe place to share and be vulnerable. I know a big part of my purpose is to heal my own experiences and, through this, help others do the same. The connection with my clients comes naturally and organically, and it is always the most beautiful energy to be in!

9. What daily habits or rituals do you practice that contribute to your own sense of alignment and well-being?

I always start the day with a positive affirmation about what I would like to accomplish for that day. It helps me visualize the outcome I want to attract. Daily movement is also non-negotiable. If I am not able to get a workout in, I make sure to go for a walk. I keep myself hydrated by drinking lots of water throughout the day, and I also invest in my well-being by working with a counselor in the same capacity I work with my clients. I cannot hold space for as many people as I do without someone holding space for me. Part of my job is making sure I am able to be the best version of myself so I can support others in being their best versions.

10. What advice would you give to women who are hesitant to pursue their dreams or make significant changes in their lives?


I would tell them that the life they want is 100% available to them, no matter how hard, scary, or unreachable it seems. I went from feeling stuck in a 9-5 job I was miserable in, spending over two hours each day in traffic, and crying frequently because I felt so lost in life, to running my own successful business, enjoying location freedom to travel whenever I want, and having a job that completely lights me up every day. I am not special; I figured it out and now get to help women all over the world take steps toward their goals and dream lives. If you are in a phase of life you don’t want to be in or have recognized steps forward you want to take but are unsure how, I would love to chat and see if I can help you! It is one day or day one, and ultimately, you have to make the choice to take steps forward or reach out for support to help you take these steps. Sometimes, we just need someone to walk alongside us to show us the way before we can walk on our own, and that’s totally okay.
