Our company is an outgrowth of our personal healing journeys.

We both came from dysfunctional families in which various forms of abuse & neglect led to developmental trauma & chronic post-traumatic stress. As traumatized people tend to do, we got jobs that paid us to manage chaos like we did growing up: Tenay into the Army, and Brett into the Air Force.

In 2007, Tenay medically evacuated from her second combat tour in Iraq due to acute post-traumatic stress and over-medication, but her real healing journey didn’t begin until 2014, when untreated trauma (also known as PTSD and CPTSD) led to chronic fatigue syndrome. That’s when she cried out to her higher power–whom she calls God–for guidance on how to heal from her suicidal, dying state. Over the next few years, she underwent over twenty therapies to heal her body, soul, & spirit, all the while learning why each therapy helped her heal.

By the time Tenay met Brett in 2018, she had been helping other people start their healing journeys for a year as part of her personal passion & life mission. As Tenay helped Brett realize that some of his struggles were actually symptoms of trauma, he too launched into his own healing journey. When we married, Brett supported Tenay’s healing journey as a caregiver on days when she needed help caring for herself. Later, when he discovered he was on the Autism Spectrum, Tenay helped Brett with his healing.

As we studied the similarities & differences between our two healing journeys as well as those of the over one-hundred people whose healing journeys we have supported over the years, we realized that a holistic approach to healing leads to faster, more complete healing.

“As we studied… our…healing journeys…we realized that a holistic approach to healing leads to faster, more complete healing.”

Once we learned how to bring together all of our seemingly disparate experiences, it became natural—almost easy—to help others overcome whatever obstacle to healing they were experiencing. We thus found ourselves helping catapult others into the next breakthrough of their healing journeys. Without pursuing it, we discovered we had become highly-effective healers.

“Today, we are passionate about empowering others to become highly-effective healers within their own areas of specialty.”
