Opening the doors to the Practicum
How Far We’ve Come
For 20+ years, I offered my readings, coaching, and classes in limited capacities and by referral only. This low-key approach worked well since my primary focus was on raising my children.
Also, for about 5 years during this time, I dedicated every spare moment trying to raise awareness about our increasingly urgent climate crisis through my OneGreenSmoothie movement.
February 2017: I Experienced a Complete Collapse
Shortly after taking office, our former appointed an anti-climate, oil and gas industry insider to head the US Environmental Protection Agency. When I read the news, I completely collapsed – shaking and sobbing hysterically. I thought I was experiencing a nervous breakdown.
As part of my desperate attempt to recover my equilibrium, I used every energy management technique I knew to help me calm down and go into a deep meditation.
How Should I Use My Time Here?
Since my environmental advocacy efforts were eating me up inside – never a good sign – I sought spiritual guidance. I asked our Higher Source, What is the best use of my time and energy here on Earth? How can I be of service?
The Answer from Source Surprised Me
It’s always a thrill to receive clear communication from the Source, even when it’s unexpected or a surprise.
I was told to dedicate my time and energy toward teaching energy management tools to help more people recognize themselves as energetic beings. We need to know ourselves as a spirit before we can acknowledge the spirit of others – including our Earth and all the living beings she supports.
One reason why we have war, personal and corporate greed, and immense suffering in our world is because we have lost touch with our connection to our spiritual selves. We’ve forgotten that we’re all energetically connected. We’ve abdicated our personal responsibility for caring for our collective home.
For the next several months, I still grappled with trying to raise awareness about the perils of animal agriculture on the one hand while also trying to build awareness about our spiritual selves on the other. I felt like my energies were split between my two passions.
January 2018: The Morning That Changed Our Lives
In the early morning hours of January 9th, 2018, my family and I were awakened by a loud explosion and the rumbling sound of a massive debris flow. This climate-caused catastrophe devastated our community killing 23 of our friends and neighbors and damaging or destroying over 1000 homes and buildings.
My family and I were lucky in that we survived. Our personal experience from this traumatic event made me realize my two missions in life weren’t separate, but intricately entwined.
I wanted to share the message that we must start caring for our Earth collectively. It is imperative we recognize that we are not only connected energetically but that our actions, especially in the wealthy west, have life and death implications for our fellow brothers and sisters across the globe—even in our own back yard as we experienced firsthand.
Our climate couldn’t care less about artificially created country borders.
That entire next year, however, our time and energy were exhausted trying to deal with the ramifications of this debris flow. Although I heavily relied on my personal spiritual work to get me and my family through this experience, I had little extra bandwidth to focus on sharing my work more broadly.
December 2019: A Meditation from Machu Picchu
Eventually, we moved back into our home and regained some stability. Finally, I received a clear sign saying, “it’s time to move forward, Susan”. It came on a multi-day hike to Machu Picchu when I channeled an earth healing meditation.
This offering felt like the perfect way to launch Ascended Presence. It’s a guided meditation with a journeying visualization meant to help us connect both with our own spirituality as well as that of our Earth’s.
Earth Day 2020: Ascended Presence is Born
And that, my friends, is the story of how Ascended Presence came to be. It has been a long, often arduous road; taken step by step and guided by spirit. As I often say, we’re only shown the next step and that’s good. Often, it would be too overwhelming if we could “see” the full road at once.

This experience was literally one of the most stressful of my life! And that is saying a LOT given I’d already overcome years of infertility trying to get these amazing kids, survived cancer while completing grad school, and moved internationally three times in two years.
