About

Kim has always been a seeker of the truth in any form it takes. She was introduced to Shamanic Journeying and through the help of her guides has been led to various methods of relating to and navigating her world. At this time she is an active practitioner of Andean Shamanism. She strives to remain open to the world as it unfolds around her and follows the path where it leads.

In 2003, Kim was given a diagnosis of Scleroderma and an unspoken expectation of death or a life of disability. With this information, life as she knew it and planned it to be was suddenly taken away. The Universe presented her with a decision – she could get on with dying or get on with living. Kim’s unceasing desire to focus on positive aspects demanded that she embrace life and the Universe showed up. She was introduced to Shamanic Journeying based on Michael Harner’s book The Way of the Shaman, she received Reiki regularly and a powerful healing session from an intuitive healer. Instead of being dead in a year, she was healed.

These experiences introduced Kim to a whole new way of being in the world and her guides continue to lead her to Soul enriching practices and experiences. Following her Shamanic interests, she was introduced to Alberto Villoldo’s books on the path of Andean Shamanism. She immediately knew this was a path she needed to walk and has been fortunate enough to train through the Light Body School with Villoldo and receive initiations through the Q’ero shamans of the Peruvian Andes.

Her first initiation was the Creator Rite from these shamans which was the planting of a seed for the continued unfoldment of the Self and it’s unique demonstration in the world. She is convinced this initiation led her to the Akashic Records. The opportunity to learn how to access her own Akashic Records has given her more than she could have imagined. Her training in and use of the Records has been instrumental in advancing her Shamanic development. The powerful combination has assisted her in shedding the past and moving into a future of her own making, creating power from woundedness.

In 2018, Kim was called by Spirit to found Red Hawk Spirit Medicine as a conduit for teaching and using the Medicine Wheel to assist others on their unique journey to heal and enhance their lives. She presents talks, workshops and retreats in service to that commitment.

Kim continues on her Andean Shamanism path through Alberto Villoldo’s Light Body School. Her desire to know more propels her to continue studying and putting into practice the methods that speak to her Spirit. She encourages everyone to follow where their path leads and if she can help them on their way, she feels the blessing in that.
