Biography

To start the conversation with “I hear voices” makes one sound a little crazy. It typically isn’t a conversation starter! Ever since early childhood I could hear these voices. They would tell me very personal things about the people around me. By teenagehood I rebelled and ignored and tried everything I could (not even slightly successfully) to turn it off. By my early twenties I gave in and tried to share with a few people what I could hear about them. I was called everything from witch to demoness and a lot more I don’t want to share. It was a very negative time and I again shut it out not telling a soul.

It was at this time one of my best friends, Christeen McKenzie, began working with Matrix Energetics and started her own company in helping to heal those around her. She worked a weekend expo one year and needed someone to help her at her booth. Just sit and take names and money for her mini sessions. It will be easy. What a life changing event. People would approach the booth saying they wanted to talk to me – were drawn to me! This occurred several times over the weekend. Each time they would sit (some did book a mini session some just talked to me) and tell me their woes. I did not know how to help but listened nonetheless. On the final night an older man sat down as his friend had her session with Christeen. I was tired – it had been a long three days – and my guard was not as high as it usually was. I remember him saying “You can see them and hear them, can’t you?”. I replied, not really thinking ahead, “Yes, most of the time”. “A-ha! I knew it”, he replied gleefully! I told him what I could hear and see of the world around me and he made me feel like that was such a normal attribute. He too could hear. He too could see. He told me that he could see angels all around me. That I was the most protected human being he had ever encountered. He told me to move forward with this gift. That I have a purpose in this life to share this gift with those I hear it from. I cried. I felt released from what I thought was a curse and ushered into an existence where I could see this as a gift. It was that night I told Christeen that I could hear these voices. She smiled, held my hands in hers, and said “It’s okay – I hear them too”.

I spent five years mentoring under her. Learning how to listen better, learning what to do with the information I receive. I have found my own way to work this gift for the positive healing of others: Energy Balance and Guidance. I will always be eternally grateful to Christeen. Without her patience, teachings and love I would not be the same person I am today. I have found my place in this life. I know my role in humanity.

So to explain how I hear you without sound…for me, your energy has a voice, and that voice resides in your heart space. Every heart space, whether animal or human, has a unique voice that speaks to my own heart space. When I think of you, whether you are in the car beside me, walking on the street or in my thoughts I hear that voice. That voice tells me what is wrong. The guy in the car beside me is worried he didn’t prepare for that meeting today, the girl at the bus stop didn’t eat enough for breakfast, the kid riding his bike is carrying pity for his sister who broke her arm three years ago. I hear everything.

I find a great outlet for this is writing. I am a five time published poet, four national poetry anthology books and one international anthology book. I also love to write short stories and in each year of high school was published in our local anthology booklet that was circulated throughout Alberta.

I am a bookkeeper by trade and have owned my own small bookkeeping company since my son was born in 2001. I love the rigidity of accounting. There is no grey area (as in the human heart). Everything either balances or it doesn’t. My job gives me structure.

I also adore my husband of 24 years and I love our family. My son is so energetically amazing. I am learning from him as he grows and develops his own healing tools and gifts. We also have a dog and two cats. I love the energetic balance the animals provide our home. Their energy is so different from ours.

My greatest life lesson to date is this: The heart never lies. The Brain lies – it even goes out of its way to ignore the truth. But the heart has the ability to store the truth forever – or at least until the Brain acknowledges that the heart was right all along.
