Chopra Center Staff Spotlight

What brought you to the Chopra Center and what do you love most about working here?
I had reached a point in my life where I was feeling like I was at a crossroads. I knew there was something out there waiting to break wide open for me, but I didn’t know what it was. I had just moved from San Francisco across the country to take a job in Savannah, Georgia – the exact opposite end of the U.S. I did that job for a while, but I wasn’t feeling in my dharma. Suddenly, I was offered the synchronistic opportunity to be a Chopra Center program consultant and head 3,000 miles back to California. It seemed crazy to criss-cross the country, but the thought of being in the warmth and sweetness of southern California and helping people connect to their purpose in life seemed like an amazing opportunity. And that’s what I love most about working here – connecting people to an experience that I know will not only meet their needs but bring deep and profound fulfillment to them as well.

What is your favorite programs consultant memory?
I’ve been with the Chopra Center for many years – so there are so many “favorite” memories; but I would have to say it was experiencing Seduction of Spirit as an attendee in Lake Lanier, Georgia. After one meditation, tears just streamed down my face. I was feeling so vulnerable and yet I felt so safe. There was a shift that occurred in me that day and it has stayed with me for years. It’s one of my favorite feelings – that of being so connected to my self and so connected to the universe as well.

What is your favorite quotation?
“My life is made glorious by touching this world And my pride is from knowing That the life-throb of the ages dances in my blood at this moment.” ―Rabindranath Tagore
