Read More of My Story:
While typing this I was inclined to describe myself as Your Guide, but Truly, the purpose of this entire concept is that it is a vehicle through which you may awaken the guide within. I am just here to accelerate your process by showing you how I got where I am through the experience of travel, share my resources, stories, and the insights that changed my life forever.
When I was a child I had recurring dreams of arriving in Sydney, Australia and I had no idea where the idea came from. (Maybe my fav mermaid show h2o had something to do with it IYKYK)
I told my family I was going to move there one day, and I was enlightened by the possibility of studying abroad. Fast forward, when it came time for college, I knew I wanted to go to school because I knew that studying abroad in Australia was something I was meant to. I chose colleges based on their study abroad programs. In 2018, the moment was here! I got on that long-anticipated 25 hour flight, the one of my childhood dreams, but this time I was delighted by the knowing that it was really real!
I had no idea what was about to ensue.
During my semester abroad, I admittedly didn’t do much studying… for my courses at least. Rather, I studied the infinite knowledge bestowed from nature. I observed, I explored, I sat with myself in relationship to everything I was sensing.
This chapter was THE moment.
The moment I realized the Oneness in All Life. And this one word, completely shifted my reality and everything I thought I knew.
Synchronicity, manifestation, following your own path, intuition, the power of the spoken word, the miraculous impact of breath awareness, the potency of presence, the depth of connection to everything we are capable of feeling in every moment, the correlation between our values and our actions, healing the wounded parts within, trust that we are always guided to exactly where we are meant to be, the non-existence of failure, the divine redirection, concepts of conscious relationship, holistic health, generational and ancestral healing…… were among a few of the rapidly downloaded realizations of my first solo trips with my backpack.
I had counted exactly how many absences I could have in each class to pass and I pushed every limit. I grabbed my backpack & a one way ticket almost every weekend, sometimes multiple weeks at a time and explored this new part of the world.
As I visited many different cities in Australia and surrounding countries there was one repeated conversation I had over & over in hostels or cafes or parks with travelers from all over the world. And it went like this:
“ X years ago I left my country with nothing. I hitch hiked across Europe, I had no idea where I was headed or what I was doing but it always ended up leading me where I was always meant to be. I never had to worry. Not about money, not about necessities. Because the more I trusted, the more seamlessly it just continued to work out. How? I couldn’t tell you.”
My twenty year old jaw dropped. This is not what I was taught about the world, I thought.
Wait… you can operate from… trust?
My entire existence shook.
And I was never the same.
I began to experience this story I had heard many iterations of myself for the months and years to come. Every school break, I went on another adventure with my trusty green backpack. Bringing back to campus the energies of a world hidden from view. The freedom that is available to us all. The infinite possibility of “how”.
Every person I met, every conversation I had, revealed something deeper than what’s on the surface. I was growing, I was learning, I was evolving so quickly. I felt anew every hour, each moment. I’d fall asleep on beaches, I never had a plan, I’d dance through the starlit jungle, and on the inner dimension, dismantle a worldview based in fear that I inherited and that is collectively reinforced. I filled 10+ journals with all that was channeling through, knowing, it couldn’t just be for me. But I hadn’t quite received the clarity on the medium…. Until Now.
As you read this, know that I am a reflection of you, and this wisdom is ours, whispered through the palms. But only if we are open to receiving.
The idea for Trust Centered Travel bloomed out of my burning desire to share what I had been experiencing with the people in my life.
Throughout my journeys the past 5 years, I engaged a lot of visualization and deep meditative contemplation. People from all parts of my path would come up in my mind: memories would flash, their laughs, their smiles, wondering where they are and how they feel in this moment. Do they feel connected? Do they feel loved? Do they feel free?
They would appear in my dreams repeatedly and we’d have magical childlike adventures in the astrals. Just like old times!
I couldn’t help but feel like what I was experiencing, just had to be shared.
I desired to utilize this knowing that everyOne is One no matter how much time had passed, to extend my hand to those who have had a profound impact on who I am today, as they were an integral part of my path.
My most recent trip home was spent re-connecting with old friends and guiding tea ceremonies in their homes, sharing some of the stories and insights I’ve gathered the past years.
Something clicked.
What if I could really show them?
I was initially inspired to personally invite childhood friends, old pals from elementary school, middle school, high school, college, social media friends, and friends I’ve met along my travels, so they could experience this new way of travel, too. But then I realized: what I’m offering is so transformative it can’t be limited to only those that I’ve already met and connected with, it must expand its scope to All who are calling in this type of adventure and drastic shift of mindset.
The idea for the Trust Centered Travel Experience was born.
Though Trust Centered Travel was an idea conjured within my Heart & Mind, it is really comprised of All of Us: We, You and I, create the experience, as the itineraries are specifically crafted to match the group intention & desires.
All of your experiences that have led you where you are today, it is all a part of it. And that is so magical.
Will you be a puzzle piece to the next perfectly purposed group?
