Sacred Wisdom 

Roaming Soul

I have spent seven transformative years of my adult life immersing myself in the world, living and traveling abroad. Through initiations, sacred pilgrimages, and the healing power of plant medicine, I have gathered profound knowledge and insight by exploring ancient sites and honoring sacred practices. With each journey, I return home to England to ground and integrate these teachings, honoring the Celtic wisdom of my homeland and the deep roots of my Welsh heritage. From India to Guatemala, Mexico, Peru, Panama, and Egypt, my wanderlust was sparked by my parents, who carried me in their backpacks through the mystical landscapes of Southeast Asia from the tender age of one. It was during this early exploration that I fell in love with the serene beauty of Buddhist temples, the enchanting energy of Angkor Wat, and the rich history pulsing through the veins of Vietnam. A few years later, I traversed the vast expanses of North America in a campervan before making my way down to South America. It was there that I began to learn Spanish and connected deeply with sacred sites, including Machu Picchu and the breathtaking salt flats, gaining wisdom from the indigenous communities I encountered along the way. My five-year journey in India was particularly transformative. I forged connections with revered deities, explored sacred temples, hiked in the majestic Himalayas, and immersed myself in the vibrant lives of desert gypsy communities. Settling in Goa, I ran an alternative school for four years, during which I completed various trainings and initiations that catalyzed my spiritual awakening and deepened my connection to my true essence. In my mid-thirties, I embarked on a mystical journey to Central America, where I fell in love with the lands of Mexico and Guatemala. I delved into ancient Mesoamerican traditions, participating in temazcal ceremonies and plant medicine rituals while exploring the magnificent Mayan pyramids, especially Tikal. Living in a community in Guatemala, I traveled through Central America in a campervan, connecting with off-grid villages and sacred spaces often overlooked by travelers. My latest adventure was the most profound initiation of my life—a pilgrimage through Egypt that transformed my being through sound activation within the sacred temples and the magnificent Great Pyramid of Giza. This powerful experience allowed me to heal long-held aspects of my spirit and connect with my greater mission on this earth: to share the sacred wisdom that humanity has long forgotten. Keep an eye out for my upcoming book for children, where I will weave these teachings into stories of wonder and magic.
