Blast Your LIGHT!

MY WILD JOURNEY SO FAR !
I do so many different things with this thing I call my LIFE!
Most of all, I help people find their SPARK for LIFE.
I'm a Free spirited human who is highly creative & wildly adventurous & I am passionate about helping people.
​
I am Norwegian, but I grew up and went to school in the UK. I was a performer as a child and teen, a dancer and theater actor but took a solo backpacking trip around the world at 19 & lived in NZ. I returned & graduated from Manchester University with a Degree in Communications / Combined Studies then came to Miami in search of the American Dream. I taught Hip Hop, a sales job, was a Assistant Producer on music videos, moved into Commercials & Infomercials as a Writer / Producer / Director. I had a successful career for over 18 years but​ after 10 years running LoudmouthTV, I was getting burnt out. I started teaching yoga, working with Reiki energy and became a healer!
​It usually takes getting kicked "where the sun doesn't shine" for us to make meaningful changes in our life, & that came all at once in 2016 with a life changing surgery, a breakup & losing my beloved dog. I realized something had to change—BIG time. Actually..everything.
I'd forgotten about CONNECTION... to my SELF so I decided I needed an EAT -PRAY -LOVE life shakeup & I found a transformational retreat in Bali & took a DEEP dive into the construct of my consciousness. It’s the greatest gift I ever gave myself.
​
I apprenticed with my teacher Kute Blackson & I began Coaching. This journey took me to India & Nepal which both had a dramatic impact on me. I met Gurus in India, Ghandi's last living disciple Dwarko Ji at his Orphanage & Ashram, as well as Dhirendra Sharma who ran the Bodhi Tree Educational Foundation. Both of these men were living examples of Kindness, Compassion & Purpose. I stopped shooting commercials, & began guiding Spiritual Retreats & Treks.
When the pandemic hit, I was inspired to raise funds to help my friends in Nepal & India who suffered tremendously. Project Solshine was born.
​
Just when I thought I was doing life right, for the next few years I was defending myself in depositions and fighting fraud. The only way through was through so I got a camper van and drove around the US with my dogs instead of stressing. It was a deeply healing & meditative experience being alone on the road. I received a lot of lessons & met some incredible guides, spiritual healers, a shaman, a psychedelic therapist, as well as special individuals who served as magical guides along my way. Most of all, I found my own inner compass. I became my own greatest teacher, healer, and guide.​​​
​
Returning home, I took a group to Everest Basecamp & received my US Citizenship. I returned to Nepal this year & to India to film footage at the school for a documentary. Time to make conscious programs?
Whats next, who knows...I'm TRUSTING THE PROCESS.
​​I'm still alive...it’s still a journey & that's the point. I am passionate about EVERYTHING I do and I want to be of service to humanity while on this magical journey.
Work with me.
