re/generate

I believe deeply in the power of ancestral healing, and in using genealogy to understand the patterns we inherit from those who came before us. Genealogy can provide us with objective insights to make sense of the stories that we’ve been told, or even the ones that were kept from us. When we open ourselves up to look beyond our own singular lives and experiences, beyond what we already know, we gain the perspective of other lifetimes, other lands, other generations. We can harness this new knowledge to re/define our essential truths, re/write our painful narratives, to re/invent the stories of our selves. We can provide healing to this generation and those before and after us.

This healing is powerful on an individual level, but can also radiate into the family level. I imagine a time in the near future when more of us are doing this work, breaking open our inherited silences, and releasing our generational shame. We’ll harbor less anger and hurt in our hearts, and learn to see each other with compassion once again. I believe from my own experience that this work has the power to change people, to change families, to change communities, to change the way we interact with and regard one another in all directions and dimensions.

This work is important, and I’m here to be of service.

re/discover::your roots

Who and where do you come from? Who are your ancestors? What are their stories? I can help you discover the answers in your genealogy.

Re/write::Your Story

Layering your genealogy findings with local, national, and global history, we write a new story for your ancestors, for your life.

re/generate::your life

Together, we go collaborate on exercises that help you confront open ancestral wounds and plant the seeds for self-healing.

You’ll know if this kind of work resonates with you. You’ll feel it in your body even as you read these words—a quickened breath or a nervous flutter in your stomach. If you do, and you want to talk more about it, let’s talk.
