    In 2011, Catherine completed the Clairvoyant Intuitive Training program at the the Church of Aesclepion Healing, where she is ordained as a Reverend. In 2016, she suffered a traumatic brain injury after a bicycle crash, the resulting post-traumatic growth and healing process resulted in her living from “the inside out”, where all her activities are motivated by spiritual growth and liberation. In 2019, through her daily meditation practice Catherine built a channel of direct communication with spirit guides on the causal plane. She is guided to share this communication with others, opening our hearts to directly experience that: Love never dies - only deepens. We are all specifically cared for, looked after, and guided on our journeys. The spirit and natural world exist in ever connected Oneness.
