Our Vision :

A few words from the mind behind the Whole Soul Society:

“ I wanted to create the Whole Soul Society to help make the world a brighter place, from the inside out. I believe it is my life’s mission to share what I have learned about Health + Wellness with other humans. I deeply believe the mind-body-soul connection and alignment within them is what creates the space for living a fulfilling life. My own journey helped me believe this as a truth, so I want to share my story and learnings with others who may be going through it too.

In my early 20s, I was living in Chicago and doing whatever I wanted as a young soul. It had always been my dream to live in a big city, and I was doing just that. I was able to travel, I met tons of amazing people and was always doing something fun and new. But, I also felt so empty inside? I didn’t feel Whole. I did not pay attention to connecting with my body nor what I was putting in it, I often numbed emotions, resisted acknowledging my trauma, and I had no idea where my life was going. I felt lost and had become a very anxious, detached, and depressed human.

One day I looked at a picture of myself and didn’t recognize myself at all. I knew I needed to make a change. I would no longer accept that I would be going through this life of mine, not fully able to engage in gratitude and abundance because I lacked a connection to my own truth and authentic being.

During COVID, I decided to try to learn ways I could create a healthier relationship with myself. I started a daily yoga practice at home, began eating plant-based, tried journaling and meditating, and over time I began to notice a change in myself. I felt more grounded, aligned, mindful, and positive. This was the spark of my interest in how holistic healing truly can work to create healthy alignment within ourselves.

In 2021, I found myself in Arizona. During this chapter of my life, I committed to joining the Southwest Institute of Healing Arts, and that was the beginning of my lifelong journey as a facilitator for holistic healing. Through SWIHA, I was submerged in the wellness community and learned the tools I needed to finally live a life of alignment. I did my own deep work, engaged in strengthening my mind-body-soul connection, and found a supportive community. I committed to bringing this knowledge to others, I couldn’t keep this magic to myself!

In July 2023, I finished my program as an Integrative Healing Arts Practitioner: a Health + Wellness Coach, with specialties in Holistic Nutrition and Mindful Meditation.

Upon completing my program, I moved back to Chicago and completed my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training through Zen Yoga Garage. I wanted to add yoga to my modality list and help make the mind-body-soul connection accessible in another way because yoga was incredibly impactful in my own wellness journey.

Through overcoming my own obstacles, learning tools to implement to create a balanced wellness, and becoming a trained facilitator of holistic healing and yoga, I am prepared to help those who feel called to live an empowered life grounded in growth, healing, and connection with themselves and others- I was called to create the Whole Soul Society to do just that! And my heart is so full to have the privilege to do so.

Overall, my pursuit of happiness on this planet is grounded in helping others on their unique journey. I aim to provide a safe space for self-discovery, embrace each person as a whole, + use approachable, accessible holistic healing techniques to support growth and fulfillment in a lasting, sustainable way. Creating the Whole Soul Society is my love letter to my community. It is a movement to create a society that finds fulfillment through connection, empowerment, and growth with alignment and wellness at its core.

When I am not directing my energy toward helping others, I love to snug with my baby cat, Galvatron, soak up the sun + connect with nature, do yoga, create through painting + photography, listen to music, eat great food, and spend time with friends and family!

Want to know more? Please feel free to reach out to me, I always love connecting with other souls!

So much love + gratitude,
