Hi, I’m Patti!

People often ask, “How did you become interested in the health and well-being of others?” It’s not a matter of how but rather a matter of what. What experience led me to wanting to serve others and guide them to a better feeling place?

When I was fourteen, my best friend died as a result of a congenital heart condition; it was awful. As I processed her death, I became more sensitive, compassionate and empathetic towards others. I intuitively knew when and how to offer people support without forcing it on them as well as giving them space to be in solitude.

I was naturally drawn towards the helping field of study and earned two diplomas: Social Service Worker and Practical Nursing. Both have provided me with a deeper knowledge base with excellent experiences. I had a passion for community nursing and I was often sent to the homes of people in need of emotional support for their depression and the circumstances that fueled it. I noticed that I was more interested in the emotional aspect of a person’s health and well-being. However, I continued working within the parameters that I was given until I was faced with re-evaluating my life.

In the spring of 2015, I resigned from my nursing position and gave my family what they needed – more of my time. Being an independent woman, that was a difficult change for me. I had worked really hard to build my career as a nurse; putting it aside was painful. However, my family was the trump card that beat my career. Little did I know, there was a greater purpose in store for me.

Over time, opportunities arose to further my knowledge surrounding emotional health. I found that I was able to take additional courses without affecting the needs of my family. As a lifelong learner, I love to explore new ideas and how to apply them in day- to- day life. This learning process was the gateway to my own personal growth journey, which allowed me to become the best version of myself.

From there, I became a certified Mindset and Emotional Wellness Coach. I also decided I could help people even more by writing a hybrid self-help/memoir about my experience with grief and loss. On October 31, 2022, my first book, Siren, On Repeat: What My Best Friend’s Death Taught Me About Hope and Grief, was officially published and released.

While I was studying and writing, I was introduced to Reiki and had regular sessions. I found the practice to be so effective as it helped me to find a balance between my work and homelife. I was fascinated by energy work and wanted to learn more. That is exactly what I did and I am now a Certified Reiki Practitioner as well.

As I said, I’m a lifelong learner. Now, I’d love to share my knowledge to help others, like you.
