About Me

I've explored extensively in pursuit of a few words or titles that would accurately encapsulate who I am or what I do, but so far, they have eluded me. In my early 20s, this used to worry me, fearing that I'd never discover an acceptable way of identifying “who I am.” In 2015, I made one of the most radical and life-altering decisions by dedicating myself to educating and propagating ancient teachings of Eastern Philosophy throughout the West. In this time, both then and now, I have come to realize that our fixation on labels distracts us from embracing our full potential because we are beyond the identity of self and we are the very conduit of the medicine we seek.

Throughout my journey, one consistent truth has repeatedly emerged: growth stems from embracing discomfort and accumulating experiences.

I came to find that this idea of “certainty” is one of the greatest myths and can ultimately limit the soul’s dharmic path and purpose.

We are not guaranteed anything. Not our lives tomorrow or the lives of the people we love and hold close to our hearts.

I decided I wasn’t to live my life off of “certainty” and that the feeling of bliss didn’t have to be temporary. There is pure untamed joy in this journey of unbecoming everything that limits your body’s ability to defy logic. It’s in this great mystery of the universe that I remain open to all that is.

I’m Birdie

For those who have reached this point, I want to convey that the world needs more individuals prepared to act as the alchemists of their own lives. It is in this undiluted authenticity that we can liberate ourselves from the constraints of "certain standards and societal norms" that confine us. Our medicine is slow and intentional, but it is lifelong.

Helping others to remember this truth constitutes the essence of my soul’s purpose.
