Description

Hello!

I will be moving back to Denver in pursuit of my dream business to fulfill my purpose as a holistic wellness practitioner at my highest and most creative potential.

The new home I intend to be in will not be available to me until mid to late April. I am seeking mutually beneficial workaway opportunity between March 8th and then.

I LOVE working with kids, teaching yoga, helping with outdoor tasks such as landscape and gardening(permaculture experience), house chores, pets, and can help with social media and other creative projects. Plenty of experience and joy with livestock as well. My string skills also include healthy communication and conscious coexisting. Between my studies of psychology, spiritual journey, post grad continuing education in holistic healing modalities, experience in many community living environments, and work in therapeutic boarding school for troubled teenagers, one might say my adult life has been dedicated to healthy community building for myself and every being I reach.

More details about your skills

I have experience as a landscaper/nursery and green house caretaker(both veggies and flowers).

I was an organic gardening and nutrition teacher for a summer camp(grades prek-8th) for my college internship the summer of 2019. There is still much I would like to learn about sustainable gardening to be where I want to be and I am ready and prepared to get my hands in the dirt and nurture land sustainably. I do have several friends from college who majored in sustainable development/agriculture and also close friends in the biology and botany departments.
I love medicinal herbs!! I grow them, forage them, and make my own tea blends daily. I also have experience making medicinal herbal tinctures. I also use my herb and spice knowledge and love in my cooking and actually base the way that I cook around such most often.

I am experienced caring for older adults and kids. I was a certified home health aide for from 2015-2018. I have been a nanny for an autistic child and his siblings and I certainly made a big impact on his health practices and was able to communicate with him on levels other nannies could not.

I am typically very intuitive when it comes to picking up on the energies of the people, animals, and even the earth/environment around me. I work very well independently and in groups. I love alone time as much as I love time team building and connecting with others. I would say I am a quick learner and thrive in a learning/working environment where there is time working together and then time for me to take for myself to mull over all that I was just exposed to, within my own energetic bubble where I can clearly place and connect that information and then come back with firm understanding, ideas, and the right questions to deepen my understanding or practice.
I am very respectful of other's space and considerate when it comes to giving and receiving both energetically and physically.

I am particularly good with horses in all ways, I was a competitive rider for 10 years and then in college, a trail guide in the Appalachian Mountains where I was highly commended for my naturally ability to round horses up as well as other communication with them. Here, I was granted permission to ride Taz, a very special horse :)

I LOVE all animals and am good with all types whether they be farm animals, cats and dogs, or iguanas, turtles and such!

I can confidently claim that I am very creative when it comes to problem solving/system improvement. By this I mean I am good at utilizing what resources are available and I come up with a lot of good ideas!

I am also very driven to work outside and have the strength and endurance for relatively hard labor. I am also detail oriented and good at completing tasks such as cleaning things thoroughly.

I love to cook and specialize in vegan/vegetarian dishes! I do have some experience cooking fish and meat, but what I practice at home is plant based and delicious!

I am a wellness promoter so I also enjoy coming up with dishes for picky eaters to get the veggies they need without feeling like they are eating the veggies...once they enjoy this a few times, their guts start to tell their brains, "Hey, we want more of that!" and that's when the brain tells the tongue, eyes, and nose, "We've got a green light from the brain!" and then BAM, you have a trained gut!

I can't claim to be an expert carpenter, however, I have participated and helped out on projects with friends and am confident I would be a great extra set of hands for this kind of work.

I am gifted at cutting hair for both men and women in such a way that makes it look and feel healthy without ever having that awkward fresh cut look.

Age

31

What else ...

I love live music! With that comes my love for dancing! I also love reading, meditating, embodying whatever animal calls my spirit, playing and laughing with those who I am connecting with. I love food and trying new food! I am also very active, I love biking, running, hiking, Kayaking, and I want to try more water sports! I really want to try scuba diving, I feel very connected to sea creatures, particularly turtles.
I typically stay active and avoid screens as much as possible.

I dream of one day having my own "Earth ship" style home on a totally sustainable homestead/small wellness retreat center. There will be horses, water, and lush vegetation. :)
