About Me
Hi, I'm William. I love everything about exploring the limits of human potential, and studying, applying, and teaching the deep connection between mind and body.
​
Like how forest fires clear the way for beautiful renewal, my journey as a healer and facilitator was forged in burnout and then re-discovery.
​
My original background was 8 years working in high-impact roles at a top global consulting firm and a high-growth startup (BCG, Reforge). Although outwardly successful by many societal standards, I internally felt disconnected and drained.
​
So I left my corporate job and threw myself into personal development and emotional processing work, studying with master healers and therapists, both in known places like Esalen, and unknown places across the world.
​
They taught me to hold emotion instead of merging with it, and my anxious loops slowly wound down. They showed me how to sense and release tension in the body, and my energy and sense of connection lit up like never before.
​
I went from burnt-out and drained to excited and energized by life again.
​
Knowing firsthand how powerful this transformation was for me, I have since dedicated my days to learning and creating the same healing opportunities I had for others.
Specific Training / Certifications
As of 2023, my lived experience has included significant training, certification, and practice in:

Other major influences come from significant exposure and practice time with breathwork, circling, movement, dance, and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR).
​
I offer a lived experience in what I bring to you, and look forward to working in partnership to bring both of ourselves closer to our higher selves.
