I’m Nancy.
I’m here to carry you through.
For me, life has been a series of explorations in search of beauty, connection, inspiration and healing.
My adventures began when I received my first camera at the age of 13 and took the commuter train to the Art Institute of Chicago to study photography.
My passion for identifying where I saw and felt beauty fueled my thirst for seeing with the eyes of love. I spent the next 20 years immersed in the technical and artistic aspects of photography, first as a student, then apprentice, curator, art dealer and then the following 2 decades as a fine art black/white portrait photographer in Seattle,Washington.
I published a collection of my photographs, Eternal Moments, intimate portraits of love within families at all ages and stages of life. Sacred images revealing ordinary life when viewed from love is a fountain of miracles.
Fully immersed in life as a wife, mother,daughter of aging parents, owner of a thriving business, at age 43 I almost lost my life to a spontaneous dissection of my carotid artery. This was a brutal wake-up call and gift in disguise to the preciousness of daily life. Thus began my path to heal my life mentally, physically and emotionally and develop a relationship with my inner world.
For over two decades I have studied and integrated Ayurveda the ancient medical science of longevity and healing as well as conscious breathing into my daily life. I have been privileged to study with renown teachers and love nothing more than sharing the wisdom I continue to gather on this life long journey.
As a qualified Breathwork practitioner and founder of Love Sherpa, I am here to serve your heart, mind, body, and soul.
I want to show you what was shown to me - through my own pain and purpose. I wish to teach you the significance of breathing like it matters - and living your life from a place of trust and abundance before it’s too late.
Our deepest desire is to be seen, heard, and appreciated. You are ready to surrender to the stories that hold you back from having a life you love. I want you to feel a sense of contentment each day, knowing your conscious relationship with your breath is your anchor back to balance in challenging moments.
I guide people, just like you, towards health and happiness through sharing dynamic practices from the ancient wisdom of yoga and Ayurveda that work in a short period of time to cut through the noise and deliver you to inner stillness.
But most of all, I wish for you to know love.
Again and again.
Each generation has a choice: Look at the shadow, unearth the unhealthy subconscious tendencies that drive our behavior. Transform, connect, heal and love. I teach you to use your breath to begin to unravel the unhelpful patterns of your life. This is the time to weave a whole new reality where your Soul gets center stage.
To know your true self and move gracefully through this time of renewal.

“Nancy is incredibly intuitive, nurturing, and wise. She creates a safe and sacred space to connect within and transmute density and emotion through the powerful breathwork techniques that she shares. She has an ease and grace about her that is calming and her poetic guidance and loving presence always makes me feel supported and held. I've experienced many profound sessions with Nancy that have left me feeling more ease in my heart, more connected to my body, and filled with inspiration. She is living her purpose with passion and spirit. I am very grateful to have found her.”
