Here’s Who

My name is Vanessa and I am an artist, healer, agent of Love & Lover of Life. My vision is to weave bridges between times, peoples and states of being; to think, speak, walk, and feel my body in alignment with true freedom and balance; and to cultivate seeds of Life-sustaining action for the future of all peoples and children.
I advocate for health freedom/self-sovereignty, and bold, ancient&new pathways for a truly sustainable and regenerative culture…one human-iverse at a time.

Like so many others working in my profession, I was initiated onto this path of natural healing via a personal health crisis and a great deal of suffering.

For the past 7 years since, I have been studying regenerative detoxification with raw foods, fruits, and herbs. In the first few years, I spent thousands of hours watching youtube videos, listening to podcasts, and otherwise reading or researching about natural health and detoxification. This is how I gained the knowledge and inspiration needed to heal myself of a chronic skin dis-ease…and much more, to my surprise and delight! You can read my complete testimony here.

After finishing my Bachelor’s in Psychology in 2020, I greatly turned up the heat in my studies of natural, alternative, and ancestral modalities of healing. I have visited and lived for several months in sustainable, alternative & Indigenous communities in the United States, Austria, Iceland, Scotland, Italy, Colombia, and Peru to learn firsthand about regenerative human-to-nature relationships, ancestral wisdom, and both modern and ancient tools of communication and healing. I have also been blessed to be mentored, guided, and initiated by several wonderful elders and healers, without whom I would not be where I am today.

I am continually working to interweave these experiences and knowledge systems into the modern Western world. I have attended multiple seminars and courses on guiding rites of passage and outdoor education and mentoring, and have some community projects cooking along these lines. In 2020, I became a founding member of an association dedicated to renewing the Indigenous roots of the European peoples. And in 2022, I decided to make my love of fruits “official” by becoming certified as a Detoxification Specialist with the International School of Healing Arts. This program is led by Dr. Robert Morse who is a leader and pioneer in the field of regenerative detoxification. I am also a certified End of Life Doula.

An eternal student, I am constantly expanding my educational and experiential portfolio. At the moment, I am working and studying in South America, weaving together the principles of regenerative detoxification and ancestral medicine.

I’ve taken a whole-systems approach to natural and regenerative medicine. This approach takes into consideration the multidimensionality of one’s lifestyle and focuses on balancing relationships — to oneself and one’s body, to food, to other people, to the natural world, and more. I have done and continue to do everything I can to meet people where they are. I believe significant healing is possible and sustainable for anyone, at any level.

Starting at the most fundamental level, I know how to purify the body of built-up cellular wastes and toxicity by using foods and herbs. This is the safest and most effective way that I know to address the root causes of dis-ease.

Our bodies can be prisons,
temples for the holy,
& everything in between.
Even when riddled with pain and dis-ease symptoms, they are in fact working for us, speaking to us, and should be regarded as our greatest allies & partners in leading a life of beauty and FREEDOM.

I know how to initiate the process of self-healing in others ~ to activate, inspire, and empower others to realize more of their potential as sovereign creator beings. I can share tools for processing and regulating difficult emotions, re-wiring belief systems and maladaptive behaviors, communicately effectively, and creating healthy habits.

It brings me exceptional satisfaction and joy to witness others experiencing deeper states of connection and Love for themselves and all of Life.
That is why I am here.
