About Katie

By the time I was 26, I had to get the fuck out because the combined physical, mental, and emotional toll of working where I was was unbareable. I had really gotten into healthy living and bounced around doing different things in that space for a while.

I got my NASM personal trainer certification, but trying to be a woman in the personal trainer space is hard. It’s super bro-y. Pass.

I got certified as an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach by IIN. I actually did this for a while and worked with women to help them balance their hormones naturally. I liked that I was helping people and that they were learning to use food as medicine (I still strongly believe in this principle). But at the same time it felt a little icky. One of the major things I focused on was weight loss and that can be a tough space to be in. Especially when there are a lot of people in said space spouting bullshit. The marketing started to feel fake to me even though I believed in what I was doing. Basically, I just stopped being passionate enough about it to make it my career.

I later made a last ditch effort to stay in health and wellness by becoming an herbalist. But again, I just felt really discouraged in the natural health space because so many people have so many strong opinions.

The breakthrough:

One night while I was watching “Friends,” I smoked a little too much *medicine*. I greened out and basically thought I was dying. This had happened before, both the panic attacks and the feeling I was dying. But this time I had a full on existential crisis.

As in, for months, I was constantly anxious about what happens after we die and why we as a human race even exist. Like, what’s the point?

I felt like this panic would not go away until I “figured it out.”

I considered going back to church. But I had attended church until I was 16. I didn’t feel like I could find anything that felt right there. It was just “if you love Jesus you get to go to Heaven and if you don’t ask for forgiveness for your sins you go to Hell.” As a child, the concept of an eternity in one place, even if it was Heaven, was very unsettling to me. Like you live for 80-100 years then just *exist* in the clouds for forever? No thanks.

Even though I didn’t go back to church or pick Christianity back up, I thought a lot about the concept of God/Source/the Universe. And how something that created all of this couldn’t be some wrathful asshole. Or even just some bored skydaddy who wanted to play The Sims. There had to be a point. There had to be love.

I explored different kinds of yoga as well. I even did a Kundalini Yoga teacher training. This appealed to me because it was a new view on spirituality, one that wasn’t based in religion (even though in the US there is a heavy Sikh influence but you can kind of take it or leave it). And one that talked about things like karma and reincarnation. This made a little more sense to me. This idea that we’re all divine beings and we’re here learning these lessons.

But I still didn’t feel like I found “IT” yet.

One day, I heard a woman mention a book called “Journey of Souls” by Michael Newton on a podcast I was listening to. She talked about how reading it helped her come to terms with death and no longer fear it.

I was intrigued.

So naturally, I went and bought this book.

It was the coolest book I’ve ever read.

This book is basically a collection of case studies from Michael Newton’s work doing “life between lives” and past life hypnosis. What was fascinating was that all of these people were describing similar experiences in the spirit world. And this didn’t sound like some religious version of a “heaven.” These people talked about a place where they met with their spirit guides and talked about different lessons they learned in different lives. They met with their “soul groups,” souls they felt so much love for that they would be overcome with tears, describing it as a love we as humans have never known. They also talked about fascinating things like how we choose our lives, different levels our souls reach, and so much more.

I knew I had to find a way to do this kind of work.

These people would come away from their sessions with completely different outlooks on life. Blocks removed. Hearts opened. Changed personalities. Sometimes even physical ailments relieved. I thought if everyone could experience this kind of healing, there would be no more greed, no more pain, no more suffering, no more anger. We would learn that the most important thing is love. We would learn to move through painful experiences in our lives.

This is the kind of world I want.

I began to read more books about past life regression. Do more research. Learn about others who did this kind of work.

A couple years later, I saw a medium. She had no knowledge that I was interested in past lives or anything like that. She told me she saw me doing this kind of work. Seeing her was what finally moved me to actually starting this work.

I got certified in Beyond Quantum Healing. And here I am now. Here to help you explore yourself, your past lives. To help you uncover your soul’s purpose. To help you move through painful experiences. To reach that inner wisdom that resides deep within you.

I now offer Beyond Quantum Healing sessions in Black Mountain, Asheville, and online. If you feel guided to book, click the button below.
