Laura did not choose this business. It chose her. You must be thinking, WHAT? Yes. The Universe has a way to shift our focus and life. She has learned to bless her junk in order to empower herself and others.
She was involved in an abusive relationship at the time. When she finally had the courage to leave in 2005, the abuses escalated, she began to see a divide within herself. What she was receiving through the shelters and American health care system was not only broken, but amplified and used it against her in court with her abuser when she sought help.
As like many stories in the #metoo movement, she was heavily retaliated against by the system for seeking justice not only for her case but for 20 other families associated with one judge who had a reputation for punishing survivors of abuse if allegations of abuse surfaced before him.
How to give a brief synopsis without carrying on? Hmmmm. Well, her story is like a Michael Creighton novel, because what she experienced was too surreal and unimaginable.
From assault and battery records disappearing from the police department including crime photos to being arraigned without her rights and criminally charged for stealing money on a house that legally belonged to her with money from her own bank account to my identity being stolen by ex 5x and it gets even better, but that is for another day.
Needless to say, she was recently asked last year by a couple of national domestic violence firms to be a whistle blower for the state of MA because of her case, her research and data she collected that attracted national attention. She declined due to legitimate fears of retaliations that would hinder her ability to truly help other survivors heal.
Now ... back to the story ...
Laura was subsequently diagnosed with complex PTSD. That led her down a spiritual path to healing her own trauma, which by the way she did not have until the courts were allowed to be used to continue the patterns of abuse for a consecutive 9 years similar to what we just witnessed in the #metoo and #timesup movements in 2017.
Since 2005, Laura has delved into finding ways to heal her path and life which subsequently opened doors for others seeking her out. We should say it was more like a college education with her college major being "ME, the affects of trauma and how to use it empower myself and others".
As far as being an intuitive, she was born this way. She went to 10 years Catholic school, but always felt "different". She comes from a family where both sides are intuitive and watched the effectiveness of intuition growing up in the health care system when treating “whole-listically”. She watched her father diagnose cancer when all the tests were negative and diagnosed appendicitis with no tests.
No matter what the issue, she has learned over the years 3 things:
1. In order to become whole, you must address all three bodies - physical, mental/emotional/spiritual. It takes addressing all three to become “whole” in all areas of our life in order to heal our life and/or to achieve a goal.
2. Trauma is not what you may think and manifests in ways physically that the traditional medical system fails to treat. It tends to be a root to much of what ails us mentally, physically, and spiritually. This does not mean that we must be ruminating over something. It just means that cells have memory and the physical body is trying to tell you something that needs to be addressed in order to heal.
3. THIS S**T works. Meaning what Laura has learned over the years in healing herself and guiding others ... If you would have asked her in 2005 about implementing some of this stuff, she would probably think you are bat s**t crazy. Truth be told. Her connection to spirit allowed her to trust again and communicate with the divine when humanity as a whole failed her and her children. Reiki saved her life, but Jikiden Reiki, healed her trauma and took everything she ever knew to a whole another level. The rest after that is history and here she is today.
Laura was born as an empath and struggled for most of her life understanding what it meant to be an empath. Experiencing many difficult life lessons resulting and complex PTSD and Trauma, she had a feeling there was something wrong with her until she rediscovered her gifts and learned to embrace her sensitivities which led her down this path.
Her traumatic experiences led her back to “ME”.
