My Mission

My mission is to help women to be joyful from preconception to postpartum. It is our birthright to be joyful.

It all started with comedy… My business began from a place of joy, from a calling, and I answered the call. Now, joy is an integral part of my business to help people to heal.

I filled my days writing sketch comedy, laughing, and then, decided to turn my pastime into a sketch comedy business. Then, I transitioned into performing standup in Connecticut and New York City.

My passion brought me to California - first, to San Francisco and then, to Hollywood.

Since my hair had always been my signature, most of the comedy was about my thick hair.

“It took my mother six hours to wash, dry and braid my hair. I could have driven to D.C. in the same amount of time!”

I performed at the Marsh in San Francisco and I had my own variety show, Khristee’s Fresh Squeezed Comedy Show at Second City in Los Angeles.

As an empath, I have always concentrated on helping others to be happy.

From comedy I transitioned to helping women to overcome chronic conditions and illnesses and lifting them to joy. It was a natural progression of healing since I overcame my 15-year chronic illness in 2010. I understood what it was like to have a chronic illness and have it zap your joy.

I started my business to lift spirits during the recession of 2009 and today, I spread joy and healing during the rites of passage of motherhood.

Today, I am a holistic healer who helps women to be joyful from pre-conception (any time before conceiving) through postpartum.

These days, it is not as common for mothers to guide their daughters through this process, so I am the guide to shine light on what you don’t know to empower you.

I believe in a holistic approach to health and birth,

evidence-based research,

Plus as a medium and medical intuitive, I connect to your mind, body, spirit, and the divine for guidance and inspiration.

Clients call me the Healer of Healers.

And people say that I am like a lighthouse that shines light to help them to see where they are going, even through thick fog.

I hold space for your pain and suffering and I can bring light and levity to serious topics.

You will feel seen, heard, and nourished.

Holistic Healing

I have been a healer for about 20 years and love the work that I do. I may suggest food as medicine, natural remedies, meditation, detoxification, mindset work, creativity, and more.

I teach women how to conceive naturally (especially older women) and how to prepare for the pregnancy/birth journey to avoid developing chronic conditions in pregnancy and postpartum and complications at birth or having sick children.

Also, I am a writer and speaker. Currently, I am writing a three-book series on childbirth from a holistic point of view, a healer’s point of view.

My book addresses chronic conditions in pregnancy and postpartum with natural solutions and prevention and understanding why birth complications happen. It also bridges the divide on the topic of childbirth among mothers by understanding childbirth holistically. I am covering such topics as fertility, morning sickness, HG, preeclampsia, arachnoiditis, gestational hypertension, gestational diabetes, postpartum depression, and postpartum psychosis. I have researched extensively and interviewed about 100 mothers and childbirth experts around the world. In my books, I share intimate childbirth stories and offer my insights as a holistic healer for greater understanding. Even though I have never had a child, I empathize with women’s experiences because I see many similarities with my life and experiences with clients.

I had a debilitating chronic illness of my own for 15 years and saw first-hand the gender bias and medical gaslighting women with chronic illnesses experience.

After experiencing this myself and seeing how many other women were experiencing the same, I made it my life mission to empower women with their health and teach them how to improve it naturally, like I did.

When I began researching for my book, I learned that there were health conditions that happen only during pregnancy or post-partum such as pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes, HG, postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and postpartum psychosis. Women weren’t getting the help they needed resulting in traumatic births or health conditions for themselves and their babies later on. I was amazed that there hadn’t been more research and dedication to help moms.

As a medium, holistic healer, and avid researcher, I saw this as an area I could offer greater understanding, support, and healing to women. It fills me with joy to be able to help women in this capacity to restore their health and bring them back to joy.

“When our electromagnetic curtains (our auric fields) dance we eliminate barriers and access joy and flow. It’s about releasing what no longer serves you and allowing in the light.”

My Unexpected Journey:

I had dreams about becoming an actress on Broadway but developed a debilitating chronic illness and moved from NYC to Connecticut to regain my health.
After seeing a random flyer in a waiting room about a Russian shaman traveling to Connecticut, I began studying shamanism for many years in Connecticut and New York and began to feel better. I include these powerful healing techniques in my healing sessions and combine with Reiki for a powerful combination.

In 2010, I healed myself from a debilitating 15 year illness through the power of my positive mind, meditation, food,, and my immense desire to be well. (a miraculous healing in only ONE month!)
In 2016, I followed my dream to travel to South America. I traveled around Peru for 3 weeks on my own, soaking up the culture, making new friends, and practicing my Spanish. I was invited to dance in the Candelaria Festival, the biggest cultural festival in Peru. I had an awakening there that lead me to leave my acting career in Los Angeles and move to Connecticut to pursue healing full-time.
