✨ Awakened by the Owl
Drawing upon psychology, Reiki, shamanic practices, and a profound spiritual awakening, Elise began to uncover intuitive gifts that shaped her calling as a healer, coach, and mentor. She bravely entered the online space, hosting workshops, masterclasses, and group coaching sessions for women worldwide, often standing strong against challenges such as bullying and harassment in virtual communities.
One of her greatest passions is guiding women through the shadows of self-sabotage, overthinking, and fear, helping them uncover the freedom and peace that has always been waiting within.
“Real, Raw, and Honest Healing” is not just her motto; it’s her lived truth. Elise knows healing requires practice, patience, and courage. She believes the pathway to inner peace is not about avoiding challenges but walking through them with trust, strength, and sacred guidance.
There was a time when everything Elise thought she knew about herself unraveled. Trauma had built walls around her truth, but shadow work began to chip away at them. It was in this deep inner transformation that the owl appeared not as a comfort, but as a guide.
The owl met her in the darkness. Its eyes mirrored the hidden parts of herself—the fear, the rage, the ache she could not yet name. Instead of turning away, the owl taught her to see in the dark, to listen beyond words, and to reclaim the parts of herself she believed were lost.
This became her awakening.
The owl initiated her into spiritual sight, an ability to see the soul’s patterns, honor truth no matter how raw, and alchemize wounds into wisdom. Walking with the owl spirit, alongside ancestors, guides, and Source, Elise embraced trust, faith, and a new way of living.
Now, she walks as a soul guide, intuitive healer, and mentor for women ready to transcend trauma and step fully into their spiritual power. Her work combines energy healing, intuitive readings, and the profound medicine of shadow work to help others awaken to their own inner wisdom.
This isn’t just healing.
It’s remembrance.
It’s awakening.
It’s the return to your truth.
About Elise
My journey began in 2018 when I started live-streaming on Facebook and YouTube, challenging spiritual norms and the stiffness often found within traditional personal development and psychology spaces. I wanted to create conversations that felt authentic, human, and accessible. I believed healing was bigger than labels, diagnoses, and rigid systems. Healing was personal, spiritual, emotional, and deeply individual.
Long before I became an author, coach, or holistic healer, I was navigating my own journey through bullying, trauma, and self-sabotage. Like many women, I learned how to survive, but I hadn't yet learned how to truly thrive. Years of self-doubt, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and fear of being seen kept me from fully stepping into who I was meant to become.
Then one evening, everything changed.
While driving home, I had a profound encounter with a barred owl. What many would dismiss as a simple wildlife sighting became a deeply spiritual experience that stopped me in my tracks. In that moment, I felt something awaken within me. It was as if life was inviting me to stop searching outside of myself and begin trusting the wisdom that already lived within me.
That encounter became the catalyst for a deeper spiritual awakening that transformed my life forever.
As I continued my journey, I realized healing is not linear. There is no single path that works for everyone. True healing often requires us to blend, integrate, and honor the practices, beliefs, and tools that resonate with our unique experiences. It requires us to question old narratives, advocate for ourselves, speak our truth, and create space for both science and spirituality to coexist.
Motherhood further deepened this understanding.
When my child spent time in the NICU, I was confronted with some of the most vulnerable moments of my life. The uncertainty, fear, and emotional weight of that experience challenged me in ways I never imagined. It strengthened my resilience and expanded my compassion for those navigating trauma, grief, and life-altering transitions.
Along the way, I also faced financial struggles, personal setbacks, and the ongoing work of healing abandonment wounds and self-worth challenges. Each obstacle became an opportunity to practice what I now teach others: healing isn't about becoming someone different. It's about returning to who you truly are beneath the pain.
Today, I am the author of five published books, a life coach, a Reiki Master, a holistic spiritual healer, a trauma advocate, and the founder of the Seastar Sisterhood.
My work is rooted in the belief that love is one of the most powerful healing forces available to us. I encourage women to be unapologetically themselves, to trust their intuition, to advocate for their needs, and to embrace every part of their story without shame.
I work with women on a soul level, which can sometimes be uncomfortable because true transformation asks us to look honestly at the places where we have been wounded. My specialty is supporting women who have experienced trauma, abuse, neglect, abandonment wounds, self-sabotage, and deep emotional pain. Together, we explore the patterns that have kept them stuck and create pathways toward safety, empowerment, self-trust, and healing.
Through coaching, Reiki, workshops, writing, meditation, and community, I help women reconnect with themselves so they can move beyond survival mode and create lives that feel aligned, purposeful, and authentic.
My mission is simple:
To help women transcend trauma, reclaim their power, trust their inner wisdom, and remember that healing doesn't require perfection—it requires courage.
Because the moment you stop apologizing for who you are is often the moment your healing truly begins.
