Meet Chani

Hey there! Thanks for stopping by. I’m out here getting curious about this life and invite you to join me to find more. I want you to find and experience your most authentic voice.

About me:

My upbringing, education and experience has brought me to understand there is much more to life and it starts within. I’ve always liked to ask questions and eagerly would drink up the words of wisdom from my parents who homeschooled me and my siblings until I was 12. Our home was always filled with people and conversation and learning. I was taught from a young age about the importance of connection, understanding and education.

My life did not always go as I expected. Frustrating for a gal who always needs to know what’s coming up (and control the outcome;). After graduating high school I trained to be a teacher and taught for 9 years.

It was a challenge to show up as the educator I wanted to be - as I was homeschooled and much of my learning was through experience, which my parents were extremely intentional about. This was difficult in a rigid (masculine) school system. I finally decided to go out on my own and teach through a unique lens using my personal ‘feminine’ voice. This journey has taught me so much from growing up with 11 siblings in the middle of America, to leaving home at a young age for Jewish education, encountering rejection, heartbreak and despair.

I am excited to see how this will develop. Just showing up.

I’d love to hear from you!

Xx, Chani
