Discover How It Works

About Me

I draw from both my personal experiences and educational background to serve career-focused individuals from all walks of life who are struggling with mental pain, low self-esteem, and the feeling of being spiritually unanchored. Through personalized, one-on-one transformative coaching, I help my clients reconnect with joy, passion, serenity, and self-love—while guiding them to rediscover their spiritual connection and live in alignment with unconditional love. My mission is to foster deep, lasting transformation, supporting sustainable, healthy, and spiritually fulfilling lives. With my guidance, you can experience profound healing and welcome life-changing results.

How do I know that you can heal and live a happy, peaceful, and joyful life filled with unconditional love? Because I’ve done it myself. I’ve survived trauma so intense that many believe recovery is impossible. I battled addiction to hard drugs and alcohol, and I faced major mental illness—yet I emerged not only whole but thriving, anchored in divine love and with compassion for myself and others.

I’ve transformed my life, and I’m here to guide you in transforming yours. Together, we can achieve healing and spiritual restoration—not in months or years, but often in a matter of sessions. If I could heal myself through divine guidance, you can heal yourself, too.

With Love,
Fenix Shepard, RC, HTP, CPT.
