Yes, this is an actual fork in the road. I had to take a picture because I knew it was my subconscious speaking to me.
There is an ancient magic in the moment when you're at a point of choice. Stand at any crossroads long enough and you can feel it - that electric tension in the air, the whisper of possibilities that dance like leaves in the wind. Every culture knows this power. The Greeks placed stone hermai at crossroads to guide travelers. In the American South, blues musicians spoke of meeting the Devil at midnight where dusty roads intersect, trading their souls for otherworldly talent.
Perhaps we recognize something profound in these intersections because they mirror the very nature of human consciousness - our unique ability to pause, to consider, to choose. Unlike rivers that must follow their courses or trees that must grow toward the sun, we alone can stand at the fork and deliberate. We alone can imagine walking down each path before taking a single step.
These moments of choice are where we become most fully ourselves. Each crossroads is an invitation to shed what we've been and embrace what we might become. The paths behind us may have shaped us, but they need not define us. At the crossing point, we reinterpret the past by writing the future.
Some see crossroads as places of indecision, of anxiety, of loss. After all, to choose one path is to turn away from all others. But there is a deeper truth here: it is precisely this letting go that gives the moment its power. The crossroads asks us to trust - in ourselves, in the future, in the mysterious way that certain paths call to our souls even when our minds cannot fully explain why.
Yet even the most intrepid travelers of old knew the value of a guide - someone who had walked these paths before, who could illuminate the way ahead with the lamp of experience and wisdom. Today's journeys may not involve physical crossroads, but they are no less significant: career transitions, relationship decisions, personal transformations that call us to become more than we are.
This is where I come in. As someone who is skilled in navigating liminal spaces, I understand the weight of these moments. I've guided countless individuals through their own crossroads, helping them not just connect with their soul, but to walk with confidence and purpose. Whether you're facing a career pivot, contemplating a major life change, or simply feeling called to something more, I offer the tools, insights, and support to help you navigate these critical junctions.
Your crossroads is calling. The future stretches out before you like uncharted territory, full of possibility and promise. But you don't have to face it alone. Together, we can explore your options, clarify your vision, and create a roadmap to your desired destination. Let's transform your moment of uncertainty into an opportunity for profound growth and meaningful change.

In my opinion hypnosis is spiritual work. I too was nervous to start with you but I think it's one of the best decisions I've made. Cause I don't necessarily need a psychologist. I've had so much therapy. One thing I think is different about the work that you do vs therapy vs psychology is that hypnosis and life coaching and spiritual guide work moves you forward in a way that I don't think therapy is geared to.
I love working with you... I find it incredibly helpful to have a time where I'm ceremonially sitting down and just emptying stuff out and sorting it. I feel like we're sitting on a magical plateau on a planet where I've got all these universal threads and pieces in front of me, and you're really guiding me through what's what and what's important and holding space for me to just be my badass self."
