About Kim

Think ancient forest meets cosmic library


I’m a shamanic practitioner, teacher, and translator between worlds. My practice weaves together Celtic traditions, the Northern path, and Star Shamanism.

My work lives where old trees, ancestral memory, star paths and modern life meet. Across time, people have turned to stars, sun, story, and ceremony to remember their place in the greater pattern. I carry that thread through dimensional journeying, star wisdom, and embodied spiritual practice, bringing what emerges back into daily life with care and grounded presence.

My courses and apprenticeships are thresholds: part guided journey, part conversation, part lantern-lit path into a living relationship with your own gifts. Whether you are feeling the first spiritual pull or are an experienced practitioner seeking to expand and embody more, you are welcome here.

Our lives are made up of the stories we tell ourselves, the stories we inherit and the stories we share with others. We may feel stuck, but we can still shift, because our stories are unfolding

My Story

I was the girl who climbed trees, played with the wind and felt currents in rooms before anyone spoke. I loved magic, music and imagination.

My grandma told stories of Soviet rule, love and miracles. Her family crossed the ocean from Ukraine and came to the United States with nothing. She believed I was capable of the impossible.

I devoured stories of underdogs who found a way forward.

I wanted stability, so I gathered advanced degrees like armor and learned to succeed in the visible world.

I built a career in public service and advocacy, where high-stakes work taught me to listen closely, remain steady and approach another person’s story with care, discernment and courage.

Listening to my Soul Song.

Over two months, I kept receiving strangely literal reminders of my spiritual gifts: a dream, a perfume sample packaged with the message “honor your intuition,” and a stranger who stopped me in the hallway outside my office.

She named gifts I had privately recognized and told me I was late, that I should already be training. I had never seen her before. She told me she had grown up a witch and asked repeatedly, “Why are you ignoring your gifts? Why aren’t you training?”

Then, at Christmas, I flew to Texas to see family and spent a night with a friend. I had no idea a spiritual festival was happening, but my friend surprised me by taking me.

By then, Source had gotten loud.

I began training in Reiki, eventually completing Reiki Master Teacher training and studying the Akashic Records. But when my great-aunt began telling me stories of my great-grandmother, who served as a community healer in her Carpathian community, something deeper clicked into place. I Googled shamanism and found a limited-enrollment apprenticeship that felt like the right next step.

Initiation.

My path opened through a year-long apprenticeship in Earth-based shamanism with two teachers holding Norse and Celtic lineages. That work rooted me: guides, trees, ancestors, spirits, ceremony, and old ways of listening.

In my next apprenticeship, my spirit learned to travel among the stars.

I then spent three intensive years in a one-on-one advanced apprenticeship in Star Shamanism with an Irish shamanic elder, including immersive periods in Ireland. The work was centered on and tailored to me, which nourished and challenged me. I learned new ways of journeying through dimensions and deepened my trust in Source, my own inner knowing, and the wider intelligence moving through the universe. My relationship with healing and the unseen expanded, and the map of what I understood as possible was redrawn.

I continued with additional runic study and entered a two-year shamanic apprenticeship in the Northern Path, strengthening my relationship with the runes and Northern spiritual practices.

I did not take a gentle turn. I crossed a threshold witnessed by my ancestors, guides and a wide night sky. I moved with my whole life lit.

My Practice

I do not believe spiritual growth is an escape from ordinary life. My role is to offer a grounded, responsive space for exploration, insight and meaningful change.

Star Shamanism.

I work with cosmic currents and multidimensional fields while anchoring the work in the body, nervous system, choices, voice, and everyday life.

Earth Shamanism: Celtic and Norse.

I draw on Source, ancestors, guides, gods, and Celtic and Northern traditions to help loosen what has become stuck, reclaim what has been lost, and bring the work back to earth.

Womb Shamanism.

I support relationship with the creative and intuitive center within the body: root, portal, memory, and possibility.

Sound Healing.

I work with alchemy crystal singing bowls and layered resonance to support the nervous system, energetic movement, and grounding.

Little joys.

Outside of my shamanic work, I bake, play music, collect warm drink recommendations, garden, and love finding places worth wandering into. I love mystery, honest conversation, stories, and a very good snack.
