Additional Information About Me

As promised, here is some additional information about me and my work. This page is for those of you who I have contacted via email who may want to learn a little more about me or wish to read up on some of the specific experiences I mentioned in my short “About Me” summary.

I did take more of a ‘flow of consciousness’ approach to this section, so the writing is a little less polished. Allowing myself to write what wanted to come through, rather than trying to figure out what to say, has definitely made it a lot easier; however, it has also made this write-up a lot longer and a lot deeper than what I had intended (or expected) to share here. Once I was in the process of writing, I realized that putting all this ‘on paper’ may have been as much for myself than for anyone else. As you’ll see below, I feel that I am at a rather pivotal time in my journey, that can be best described as transitioning from the proverbial chrysalis into the butterfly. So for me to have been nudged to write about and thus re-visit, re-experience, and re-cognize everything that has happened in this lifetime, has provided a profound opportunity for me to come to ‘re-know’ much of what I have experienced thus far in a new way and to find even greater completion. If it can also serve to reassure some of you about who I am, and the integrity, commitment and passion I bring to all I do –including this Community– even better!

To make it easy for you to find and focus on the parts of this story that is of greater interest to you, I have listed the headings of all the sections right below. No matter how much, or how little, you end up reading, I am certain you will find it entertaining… if nothing else. And, unexpectedly, this write-up may also end up serving as a good start to the book so many have suggested I am supposed to write…

Unprecedented Times of Possibility, the Work I am here to Facilitate & a Uniquely Challenging Lifetime

It may be most helpful to say just a few things about the work I am here to facilitate. Alchemy of Creation is the name of my new website. My first website, which I started in 2011, was called Remembering Your Perfection. I am high-lighting these names because both were given to me via guidance and both are quite apt in capturing what this work is about. And although I changed the name from RYP to AoC, my work is still very much about facilitating that Remembrance of our True Divine Nature and our Inherent Perfection. This is accomplished through facilitating our Experienced Knowing of this as True and Truth, and this in turn facilitates our ability to Embody this Knowing increasingly in our lives. The “Home”, “About”, “Session Description” and “Client Experiences” pages give the best overview of what my work is about.

From my perspective we are currently in a time like no other we have ever experienced on this planet and that directly ties into the work I am facilitating: It is a time when all things are increasingly becoming a possibility for many more of us — as in “these things you shall do and greater things”. I feel we have the possibility to complete all of our personal ‘karmic patterns’ and to help shift this planet fully into the light; or at least to help reach a ‘critical mass’ in humanity’s awakening to precipitate such a shift. This will allow us to increasingly restore True Free Will Choice to all, something that has been almost completely eroded over time.

It is precisely because of the never before available possibilities just described above that some of us purposefully brought in a lot to transmute, not only for our own soul’s journey but because of the great impact it would have on a much larger scale. Doing this deep inner work while here in physical form at this time can have a major impact on the collective consciousness and make it much easier for many others to transmute similar patterns within themselves. In addition, because there truly is ‘no time’, when we transmute such deep karmic patterns within ourselves –especially those of us who ‘carry a lot of light’ and who have had a number of ‘very impactful incarnations’– it can have profound reverberations back and forth in time that can substantially alter the timeline we are currently on.

So, it seems that my Higher Self has set up an extremely challenging lifetime for me – starting already at conception and in the womb space, and continuing all the way up to now.I now consider the time before my awakening as the caterpillar period, since then the chrysalis period, and I am just now finally emerging as the butterfly. The further along on the path I am, the deeper I understand the many underlying reasons for having set things up as I did and the more empowered I am becoming in the face of it all. I am also gaining a level of surrender, faith/knowing and fearlessness that would not have been possible without these experiences. I have also come to understand that the potency of the work I am here to share and the abundance I am here to ultimately experience are directly proportional to the depth of the shadow, the challenges and the lack I have transmuted. Most importantly, it appears, all is finally coming full circle and things are about to get really exciting on many fronts, including this community and the newest energy work I am here to offer. The very few individuals who have even remotely of an idea of what this lifetime has involved for me have been continuously amazed that I have kept going, that I am still here, and that I have accomplished what I have… and what I currently am.

Just here to be a Higher Level Heading

Just here to be a Heading 4

Just here to be a paragraph and more……. of the puzzle that are important in the overall picture of this lifetime, for who I am, and for what I am here to do. As indicated above, I know that the depth of the challenges I have experienced are now allowing me to hold space for and to facilitate transformation at very high levels — and, as it true for all of us, our capacities continue to amplify tremendously.

Nothing about my life has been linear and I have had several full 180s with completely unexpected twists and turns; it’s like having lived several lifetimes in one and it truly is quite a miracle that I am still here.
Severe and frequent medical challenges, extended hospital stays, dis-ease, accidents, emergency surgeries [some life threatening], as well as major ‘losses’ in all kinds of ways have all played profound roles in this lifetime for me. I can see why I may have wanted to lighten things up by choosing April 1st as my incarnation day [we also have April Fools in Germany] and why I have always identified with the Fool card [0] and the Magician [1] in the Tarot ~ 10 is also my birthday-based life path number.
Things started with being in the hospital for 2-3 weeks at age 2-3 and continued with major ear operations at age 5 and 7… and things have continued in a similar vein throughout this lifetime.

Beginnings of My Awakening

It was at that time in 2006 that the Universe truly pulled out ALL stops to make absolutely certain that I would be forced to take time out and not be able to just continue with my work/life, and that I would become aware of and awaken to the following things:

=> That there are things I could not see or touch that are real, something I did not believe in back then as I was a waffling agnostic-atheist scientist. Interestingly I had always dreamed of having a ‘spiritual experience’ but never imagined I’d actually have one… little did I know.

=> That there apparently is a Greater Design to life, including what was unfolding for me.

=> Others who were on a spiritual path seemed to somehow be able to pick up on that Greater Design, which [especially as a scientist] would have been almost impossible for me to believe, if it would not have been for the following series of events – the orchestration of it all is so beyond anything one could imagine, and I am only sharing the tiniest tip of the iceberg here.

=> Within a 6-month period, I was essentially told the same message by 3 complete strangers without making any kind of inquiry: by an astrologer, a workshop facilitator who had a dream about me & a workshop participant who got an intuitive message for me.

=> The message they all gave was that I apparently had a true Gift and a true Calling to do “energy healing” work [broadly speaking] and that it was important that I would do so.

The key here is not just the similarity of the messages that were shared but also (1) that this happened 3 times & I had explicitly asked for a 3rd time, if I was to take these messages seriously; (2) that this came from three complete strangers who truly knew nothing about me; (3) without even having had as much as a conversation about anything related to the message or having asked any questions, (4) that all 3 individuals seemed compelled to share those messages with me, and (5) they got their messages in three different ways [astrology, a dream, intuitive guidance] seemingly out of nowhere – at least that is what it seemed like to me back then.

For the “agnostic-atheist scientist” that I was, there simply could not be any rational or scientific explanation for this set of events. The “Universe” –as I cautiously referred to whatever it was that seemed to be coordinating some of these things– apparently knew full well that “it” had to be extremely convincing with me and present irrefutable evidence or I would have flat-out dismissed it all as pure chance or as my “making stuff up.”

Beginnings of completely “Guided” Energy Work

However, receiving those messages alone would not have been enough for me to change my hard-earned academic career – a lot more irrefutable and profound experiences would be required before I’d believe in any of these things. Interestingly, just before and around the time I got so unwell, I had come across ‘intuitives’ and others who did ‘energy work’ in the small liberal arts college town I was living. During this time when I was so unwell, I had begun to take Reiki, Healing Touch and other alternative modalities but was not convinced any of it was doing anything at all, nor that I was any good at it. It was only after receiving the 3rd message [above] that I began to have a series of very powerful, very explicit and also rationally inexplicable personal experiences that seemed to confirm the messages I was given and it also started me on the path of receiving guidance myself. I’ll only mention one of those events here.

Still all within the same year in 2006, I had been guided to go to a yoga retreat on Maui and a person who had been hit by a tour-bus several months earlier with extremely severe injuries was at the retreat and the teacher mentioned her a few times. On the last day of the retreat I got the feeling I was supposed to get up and do some ‘energy healing work’. My mind tried to talk me out of it… but I ended up getting up and doing so with her permission. Something completely different happened this time: I could feel energies begin to flow through my hand and it started moving as if guided; I even seemed to know what was happening and why. When I was finished, the woman had tears flowing down her face and said: “Thank you so much, this was so powerful.” I shook my head, pointed up to the sky and said: “Don’t thank me…”

It is important to be clear: I absolutely did not believe in anything existing “up there”, nor that “energy work” actually worked, nor that anything like this could ever happen to or better through me. Clearly, once again it seemed that something else with some “greater understanding and plan” apparently “was for real”, and seemed to be orchestrating these things, guiding and pouring energies through me… somehow and for some reason.

If it would not have been for clear and irrefutable evidence like this, I am certain I would not have wanted to leave my academic career and I surely would have tried to cling on to it for much longer. But “fortunately” [from a higher perspective] I was too unwell and would continue to be for several years to even attempt to stay in academics. I am certain my Higher Self set this up on purpose to make 100% sure that I would leave my academic career, as I clearly had another “calling” I was now meant to pursue.

One of the most challenging experiences at this time was that I lost the support of most of my friends and of the only two remaining immediate ‘family members’ [my step-father and brother] because of the my very sudden, profound and undeniable ‘spiritual awakening’, that just so happened to coincide with being so extremely unwell I was barely able to get out of bed and take care of the essentials of daily living. One of the times that I truly would have needed ALL the support I could possibly get in order to make it through, especially because of my own confusion and concern about suddenly having my world turned upside down in so many ways, I lost virtually all of it… as pretty much everyone thought I had completely lost my mind and/or got brainwashed by some cult. Unfortunately I never gained that support back either.

Continuing Importance of Signs & Synchronicity, Interference and Accelerated Times

Lastly, due to the extremely challenging nature of this lifetime, it is only because of such explicit, clear and irrefutable experiences, signs and synchronicities that started right at the beginning of my awakening and have continued until now, always showing up perfectly when I was just about ready to completely throw in the towel, that I am still here now… that I have continued on this “spiritual path” and that I have trusted my Knowing that somehow I would ultimately come to fulfill that very clear “Calling” I was told about back in 2006.

If I thought things were challenging before my awakening… well, I hadn’t seen anything yet and I had no idea what would be in store for me in the years to come. And gratefully I did not know because, if I did, I would have said a clear and decisive: “Thank You very much; but that’s a NO Thank You, I am absolutely NOT interested in this!” It became very clear why getting information from Spirit on a “strictly need-to-know basis” seems like the only way to go. I am sure many of us would have jumped ship otherwise!

I am clearly skipping over the chrysalis period — the time since my awakening and up until now, because I wouldn’t know where to begin and end to try and capture any of it; and, also, because this “About Me” part has gotten much longer than I intended it to be. Let’s just say that these years have been unfolding in ways that I never could have imagined… including how much my being able to move forward with offering my ‘energy work’ –that was clearly my calling and the main reason for leaving my academic career– would be hindered and delayed. I was guided to study with some amazing ‘masters’ and ‘healers’ and fully dedicated to my inner work; yet, on many levels things seemed to be getting worse rather than better. I would not understand this for many years to come. It is during this time that I also realized that there was a ‘whole spiritual path’ before me I had to uncover and navigate. It is only over the past 2-3 years that I have come to grasp the level of interference I have been dealing with since conception [well, and since ‘before’]. Of course, it had come up repeatedly over the years but it just seemed too far-fetched. It is not something that ever was [and still is not] my focus but it became clear that gaining an awareness of those “shadow” dynamics was something that would be essential for me in this lifetime and that I set things up to come into full empowerment with. When I realized about 2-3 years ago just how completely unsafe I felt — both in the physical and non-physical [spiritual] world– it was quite a profound experience… though not surprising. As I said, some of us brought in a lot to transmute and come into Wholeness with — for many reasons and on many levels. Everything is truly increasingly coming full circle now and I am grateful to be at the ‘bottom of the barrel’ of all of it.

I am still here and doing better than I have for most of my life, and I am excited about the new beginnings: Finishing the Alchemy of Creation website for the unique work I am here to offer; having the LEAP website and Community platform largely completed so I can finally reach out to You and the others I am guided to; and getting close to being able to launch this Community after 6 years of knowing this is part of my path and purpose, I know things are truly about to accelerate greatly from here on out.

It has been the depth of my Knowing of how potent of a “Creational Node” this LEAP Community is here to be on a global scale that has helped me to keep going. I also kept hearing: “If You build it, They will Come!” I am curious to see who will show up and become a part of this new (ad)venture.
