Hi, I’m Elaine. I’ve lived many lives in the past few years: full-time working mom, cancer survivor, “roadschool” teacher, fulltime RVer, Reiki Master and Artist.

It’s been a journey to get here. In fact it’s been a 13,000 mile family RV trip across 22 states kind of journey. On the day that we were going to sell our house to kick-off this trip of a lifetime, I was diagnosed with cancer. That kind of surprising and devastating news throws your life off the rails and can send you down one of two paths. Either a path of resistance or a path of acceptance and transformation. I choose transformation (or rather, transformation choose me.)

Thankfully I have a wonderful husband, family and friend network that supported me through that dark time. After delaying the home sale and having surgery, we were finally off to explore. It was the first time in a my adult life that I had a break. After 15 years in corporate jobs, I had hit major burnout. I was ready to soak in all the wild and wonderful experiences across America. With this newly found way of life, I was able to connect with nature in a deep way and to sample various healing modalities across the US.

I received Reiki prior to my first surgery at the recommendation of my co-worker and later Reiki Master Teacher. It was a profoundly moving, deeply relaxing and ultimately transformative experience. I had feared surgery for so long but after receiving Reiki, I walked into my surgery completely calm at my core.
