    I'm a spoken word writer and lifestyle coach that provides the opportunity through healing and growth. My skills may seem a little all over the place, but I have formulative knowledge on the topics listed. This is based on trial and error in my own work and by working with a variety of clients that have helped me hone my skills further. I provide a list of services: - Lifestyle Coach: I offer one on one coaching calls, emails with topics that consist of: manifestation, dropping habits, mental health, mindset change, and spiritual consultations. -Writer/Ghost writing: I specialize in putting together fiction, memoirs, and poetry works. I've worked with multiple clients when it comes to critique work, personal poetry, constructing a novel, and even critiques. My work in writing has evolved into spoken word and speaking for events such as : fundraisers, festivals, high schools, churches, prisons, and more. Social Media Manager/Virtual Assistant: I developed this skill when I was asked to work for a family friend on her social media advertising, marketing, and scheduling. Hope Zins is a published author and wanted to create a wider fanbase as well as needing help with content creation. We worked briefly to help her set up her accounts and navigate the world that is social media (instagram, tik tok, twitter, and facebook) as well as marketing (ads). -Spiritual Healer: I genuinely believe that everyone has the opportunity to make their life massively better. This can start really with a sense of knowing who you are and what you want from the world. I've worked in astrology, numerology, tarot reading, and intuitive reading for about five years now. Bringing yourself closer to these types of spiritual practices can make the unknown a lot less terrifying and set you into a closer knowing within yourself.
