MaryJo's Background

Mary Jo’s early childhood is rooted in both a very strict German Catholic upbringing & a science-based family.  Her father was a family doctor & 4 of 5 brothers have degrees in a scientific field. She has been intuitive since birth, but her “knowingness” was shut down every time it appeared since it wasn’t congruent with her family’s values.  Therefore, her intuitive & healing gifts were suppressed for many years.

As her spiritual search progressed over the past 25+ years, her abilities began to manifest.  In 2000, she went on a South American expedition to meet & work with shamans in both the Andes Mountains & the Amazon Rainforest. It was here that she was told that she, too, was a shaman and that the reason for her incarnation at this time was to teach both the indigenous and industrialized societies the positive aspects & value of the other.  Since that time, her gifts have skyrocketed.  Mary Jo’s love of her work in giving readings & healings is evident to all she has helped.  Yet, her greatest joy & passion comes from teaching others how to uncover, identify their own innate intuitive & healing abilities through her lectures & classes.
