This little rosey cheeked girl you see here had a wild and free spirit (and a unique way of dressing!) So it makes perfect sense that she eventually discovered travel as a great way to get to express herself, know herself better, learn to love her own company, and ultimately love who she is.
I always loved going on trips! I was always excite about family vacations growing up. And at 11 years old my love for solo travel was ignited. I was flying alone for the first time to see my grandparents in San Antonio, TX. The thrill of no parents to tell me what to do, no siblings to fight with, and no one to compromise what I wanted, just as solo travel should be!
But as that sweet little one, I had to go through some challenging times before I found the deeper gifts that travel had for me. And so fast forward many years past college, a wedding, the birth of two children to a time when I felt lost.
I was a stay at home mom to two wonderful kids but unhappy in my marriage and miserable in my own body. I needed peace and quiet and time to focus solely on myself.
A trip to Ireland and my first trip, longer than a day or two, away from my family gave me some valuable time to myself.
Travel wasn't just about getting a break away from something or someone, but a chance to be WITH myself; to get to know myself, listen to what I wanted. And in this, I saw how much I was living my life for other people and rarely for myself.
Wondering along the Cliffs of Moher while gazing across the Atlantic Ocean, I realized I had been living my life NOT in my body for a very long time. I had never felt so present and beautiful in my own skin. I never felt like this at home and this was a profound realization that only happened because I had taken this trip.
There was something truly magical about the beautiful Irish landscape and I learned to never underestimate the power of being immersed in beauty. A breathtaking view can make us feel totally connected to everything.
I found traveling to beautiful places, those that spoke to my heart and soul, to be the greatest paths of transformation. These travels mirrored my journey into the truth of my own heart; that I am an alive, beautiful, confident, and empowered being, with the strength to put my own well being as a top priority. No one benefits when we abandon ourselves. I know this sounds unreal, but I stand so fully in the truth that travel has the power to lead us into Self-Love.
Little did I know that my trip to Ireland would be the beginning of a truly inspired path. Several years later I travelled on a Sacred Sites Tour to England. This trip further changed the way I travel as its focus was of a Spiritual nature. It turned out to be deeply personal, profoundly spiritual, and absolutely unforgettable.
England changed me forever. The beauty of the landscape made me feel alive and getting in tune with the sacred energy of the land through visiting the ancient sites was my introduction to what I now call Transformational Travel.

Today I am here supporting women in living inspired, empowered, and heart-lead lives; using travel as the unique, exciting, and powerful vehicle to get there.
It's true! In a way nothing else can, spending time in a different place, away from our day-to-day routines, gives us the opportunity to really know who we are and provide clarity and inspiration about where to step next. And the power is exponentially expanded when that place is one that has been calling to us on a Heart and Soul level.
Creating Spiral Path Journeys was the obvious next step on my own path. The perfect combination of my commitment to supporting other women in finding unique and joyful ways to reconnect with themselves and bring more beauty into their lives, with my own love of travel and desire to live authentically. SPJ's Group Retreats in England and New Mexico, and solo travel Soul Quest coaching program makes Transformational Travel easy, attainable, and fun!
