Hi! I’m glad you’re here. My name is John.

I’m a certified Reiki Master Practitioner, artist, and author with a deep commitment to helping people reconnect with their true selves—the parts of us that are often hidden, misunderstood, or forgotten.

For much of my life, I struggled with self-hatred, especially due to my sexuality. In a time when being gay was harshly stigmatized, I found myself lost in self-destructive behaviors, addictions, and anger. But a major turning point came after my mother's passing in June 2022. Her loss made me reevaluate everything, sparking a profound transformation in how I see myself and the world.

Through therapy, spirituality, art, and journaling, I’ve gone from living with deep depression and anxiety to embracing freedom and healing. My purpose now is to help others find that same sense of freedom, to reclaim their inner peace, and to embrace their true selves without fear or shame.

I create art, write, and share Soul Drawings as a way to help others connect with their deeper selves and their unique paths. I don’t claim to have all the answers—no one does. But by sharing my story, my work, and what has worked for me, I hope you can find inspiration to trust yourself, honor your intuition, and know that you are never alone.

I’m here to walk with you on your journey—just as I continue to walk my own.
