My Journey of Freedom, Love & Self-Acceptance
I’d like to share my personal journey with you to show you that a spiritual journey is never straightforward. It is a journey into the unknown. It takes courage and trust to follow your soul’s calling BUT when you do - true magic happens! The right people, the right places, the right events come into your life to support you on your journey and soul expansion.
Being Born into Fear
I was born in East Germany in the early 80’s. For the first seven years of my life, I experienced a world that lived in total fear and was suppressed by political power. No freedom of speech, limited resources, no freedom to travel. East Germany was locked in, surrounded by a wall, the Berlin Wall. We couldn't go anywhere. Those who tried to escape and got caught went to prison or got shot. Although I was so young, and nobody told me about the horrors, I felt it all. Fear, anxiety, suffering - in my parents, my teachers, my friends, my neighbours, my environment.
The Gift of Freedom
A big shift occurred in 1989. The Berlin Wall fell and East & West Germany were reunited. In this process, East Germany lost its identity overnight. The old structures political, social, cultural… all gone. Values I was told and taught, were now wrong. Social structures and hierarchies I was told to look up to, did not exist anymore. And whilst an entire country and its people went through an identity crisis - we received the most precious gift of all. Freedom! And it was then, as a 7-year-old girl, that I promised myself to always honour my freedom.
Education: The Golden Ticket
From a young age, education was very important to me. I understood that being well-educated means freedom of choice and creating our own opportunities in life. Up to this day, I love learning new things because it allows me to grow. After high school, I studied Online Journalism in Cologne and then moved to England for my Master's Degree in Design Innovation. During my studies in England, I was exposed to entrepreneurship and that’s when I caught the entrepreneur bug.
Following my Soul’s Calling
I was obsessed with entrepreneurship, innovation and tech startups. I worked with over 50 startups in the USA, UK and Australia and founded 4 tech startups: From an email productivity tool, to a video ancestry platform to keep family traditions alive, to a fashion app to promote a healthy body image. I lived and breathed tech startups for over 15 years. And then, Kundalini knocked on my door, and my spiritual awakening began to unfold. In 2018, I left my career to follow my soul’s calling.
Kundalini: A New Path
Early 2018, I trained in Kundalini Activation and I became the first Kundalini Activation facilitator in Australia. Btw, when I talk about Kundalini Activation, I talk about the process of laying down on your yoga mat and receiving Kundalini energy through transmission. Whilst Kundalini yoga, breathwork and mantras have been introduced to the Western world some time ago, activating Kundalini through transmission was new to the Western world (it comes from the Indian tradition of Shaktipat, the process of transmitting spiritual energy from one person to another).
Feeling alone
From tech entrepreneur to Kundalini facilitator… I felt like an imposter! I felt inadequate, not good enough. Having a very tech-savvy brain it took me many years to truly accept myself within the world of energy healing. I didn’t feel I fit in. And so I neglected parts of myself which then created a long period of separation and loneliness in my personal life. Looking back now, I know that becoming a Kundalini facilitator was a deep dive into my spiritual awakening. Back then, I did not have the support or guidance to understand what I was experiencing.
Light at the end of the tunnel
The good news is, I eventually got there! We all do! We heal and transform. The most important lesson I’ve learned during my spiritual awakening so far is that we don’t have to figure it out on our own. Learn from my mistakes, otherwise, it can become a very lonely journey and what’s the fun in that? Connect with people who can empower you in your spiritual awakening.
A Cosmic Love Letter
In 2022, I became a Master Practitioner of Energy Medicine. During my shamanic training, I arrived home. What do I mean by that? I connected with all there is, I accepted all there is, and I fell in love with all there is. And as I connected with all there is, I connected with myself. And as I accepted all there is, I accepted myself. And as I fell in love with all there is, I began to love myself.
Freedom, Love & Self-Acceptance
My journey is a journey of freedom, love and self-acceptance. Just like I promised myself as a 7-year-old girl to always honour my freedom, my spiritual journey has gifted me the freedom of mind! My mind’s limitations which kept me a prisoner of my thoughts, have fallen like the Berlin Wall. Without those limitations, old structures and conditioning, an identity crisis arose: Who am I? Why am I here? I was given a blank canvas to recreate myself after finding myself within the sea of infinite possibilities. And in that space of nothingness and everything at once, I found love and self-acceptance, and the understanding that we are free to choose our destiny.
