“I did all the tv segments in the world, seeking validation from the outside world. Until I learned to self-validate… Now I live in the magic of self-love and self-approval!”

My Story
Everyone is at least a little bit codependent in their relationships these days. As a Queer woman in NYC, I have always been a bit different. I understand the battle of having been a “good girl” and “people-pleaser” and also a rebel at the same time. I pierced my nose for the first time at age 17. I have run the spectrum and full range of reactions in order to be able to teach it now. I no longer parent my parents, but I have stepped into being a daughter with them. I help others identify the root of their patterns from family life and how these patterns may be showing up in love & partnership and in work. In the Fall of 2016 I was introduced to a person that would show me all about my own codependency issues in relationship and start to understand the human magnet syndrome. It was an initiation.
I launched a PR company for pet product manufacturers back in 2007 called Whitegate PR and was a guest on TV stations across the country from NBC to CBS to ABC to Fox as “The Pet Lady”TM. I received my BS from San Diego State University in Public Relations and Political Science. After working for Muttropolis in southern california and then moving to New York City in 2008, I have been a professor at Baruch College and FIT (Fashion Institute of Technology). I have studied bikram yoga, meditation, participated in vipassana silent retreats, I have studied Latihan at the Subud Center along with many religions, spirituality, plant medicine and pets. I have also completed the NYC marathon, NYC triathlon and a 70.3 Ironman. I was born in Canada, raised in London England and grew up in Northern California. I identify as a global citizen and currently reside in Rockaway Park, on the beach in Queens in NYC. I wish for you to shift into your full sense of self so you can show up in that way in all your relationships, and allow yourself to be fully expressed!
