My Journey, My Land, My Soul
As far back as I can remember, I have loved to explore and adventure. New places, people, and different cultures have always fascinated me. This exploratory spirit was cultivated in the mountains of North Carolina where I attended a rugged all-girls summer camp. It was just us and nature, and it was at camp that I first experienced the magic that happens when we are present in nature. Two decades later, this would become a core building block for the foundation of Journey Land & Soul.
In my teens and early twenties, I traveled to Central America, Europe, Asia and Africa. I became captivated by the stories of humanity around the globe. My travels exposed me not only to the vastness of the outside world, but also to the depths of each of our inner worlds. I volunteered with non-profits that focused on the advancement of women and became a mentor for refugees. Through this work a seed was planted: despite our differences, humans are bound by a shared desire to lead fulfilling and joyful lives.
Exiting college, I longed to build a meaningful career working in this space of nature and transformational growth. But I didn’t have the tools at the time to lean into this intuition. So for nearly a decade, I put this dream on hold in exchange for a more traditional version of success in the real estate world. I built a thriving real estate practice, and while it looked great on paper, it came at the expense of stress, anxiety, and burnout. I couldn’t shake the feeling of misalignment and disconnection from my true self and purpose.
I knew in my heart that something needed to change. I devoted myself to my holistic well-being: mind, body, and soul. I began studying meditation and mindfulness, yoga, sound healing, and nature immersion, which taught me to heal my burnout and relieve my stress and anxiety.
And in doing so, I reconnected with my values and my truth. I let go of versions of success that were no longer my own. I rekindled my exploratory spirit, and for the first time, I felt empowered and free.
Experiencing these profound shifts in my own life has been the launching pad for me to help others do the same. Today, I combine my passion for working with individuals in their growth and transformation with holistic wellness and mindfulness. Our mindset shapes our reality, and through exploring the world around us and within us, we set the foundation for our expansion.
