About 10 years ago, I joined a training called Earning The Light.
At the time, I was searching for something deeper than surface-level healing or spiritual performance. I was carrying things I didn’t fully know how to name yet.
What I found was not a perfect path or easy answers.
It was honest work.
Grounded work.
The kind of work that asks you to meet yourself fully.
This June, a new cycle begins, and I’m honoured to be returning as part of the TA support team for the program that once supported me.
Earning The Light, created and guided by Pete Bernard (Mishkwa Kimiwan), is a two-year training in Spiritual Healing, Energy Medicine, and Sacred Alchemy.
What I respect most about this work is that it does not ask you to pretend you have it all together.
It recognizes that many of us carry grief, survival patterns, regret, pain, fear, shame, and parts of ourselves we’ve struggled to face.
And still…
healing is possible.
Not through performance.
Not through bypassing.
But through honest, embodied work.
If you’ve been feeling called toward deeper healing, shadow work, spiritual development, or learning how to support others through lived experience and grounded practice, this may speak to you.
You do not need to arrive “fixed.”
Only willing to show up honestly.
If you’re curious about the program or want to hear about my own experience with it, feel free to reach out. ❤️
