In 2015, I found myself standing in a women’s fire ceremony at a Family Constellation workshop. The ritual was led by a facilitator inspired by Francesca Mason Boring. As we stomped our feet in rhythm, something opened—I entered an altered state of consciousness that I had no words for. I knew something powerful had been awakened. After that, I couldn’t look away. I had to follow the thread.

The universe always finds ways to respond when we follow the breadcrumbs. Not long after, I heard someone mention their shamanic teacher during a hypnotherapy workshop. The word “shamanism” landed in my awareness like a thunderclap. I immediately looked it up and found Glenn Campbell of the Foundation for Shamanic Studies (FSS). I signed up for my first workshop, The Way of the Shaman, and it changed my life.
I had found what I was looking for—the tools, the sacred methods, the direct connection with spirit. I’ve been walking this path ever since.

My Philosophy

“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”
~ Robert Frost

I had always been a seeker. For years, I searched for a perfect teacher to guide me through the mysteries of the spiritual world. But over time, I discovered what Paulo Coelho once wrote so beautifully:

“Don’t confuse the teacher with the lesson, the ritual with the ecstasy, the transmitter of the symbol with the symbol itself… we ask the Mother to send us guides, and all she sends are signs to the road we need to follow.”

I now know that divine teachings come through many forms—and human teachers are simply vessels for the sacred. When we sharpen our senses and open our hearts, we can perceive the guidance that is always around us.

“The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.”
~ W. B. Yeats

Where I Come From

I was born and raised in Taiwan, a beautiful island once known as Formosa, shaped by Indigenous cultures as well as Chinese, Dutch, Spanish, and Japanese influences.
In 2007, I moved to Canada—another vibrant, multicultural land—and I now live in Richmond Hill, Ontario.

Over the years, I’ve completed numerous advanced trainings in soul retrieval, extraction, psychopomp work, divination, ancestral healing, systemic ritual, and trauma-informed constellation practices.
