Hi! I’m Ericka, founder of PeacefulWork, and I’d love to share my story with you.
I understand what it's like to feel anxious, overwhelmed, burned out, and confused. I didn’t always know there were ancient practices that could help me heal and become my true self. I didn’t realize how much I was conditioned and programmed, but I felt lost for a long time. Once I learned I was a Highly Sensitive Person and began exploring healing practices, I was able to strip away old layers and reconnect with my authentic self.
I grew up in the Yakima Valley in a Christian home, often feeling that something was wrong with me. My dad took his life when I was three, and I carried guilt and confusion about that. At 17, I was groomed by an older man, and with no guidance or boundaries, I couldn’t protect myself. After years of therapy and medication, I felt hopeless. But in 2017, a book I read helped me realize I was in an abusive relationship, and that sparked a major transformation in my life.
I began studying my family’s history and learned about the abuse my father endured. The trauma that was passed down through generations became clearer, and I knew I had to break the cycle. Through years of studying and self-reflection, I healed on a mental level, but my body still carried trauma. I discovered that the body holds wisdom and that healing on a mind-body level was key. Now, I live with more freedom, love, and beauty, and I’m excited to share the tools I’ve found to help others heal.
I currently live in Oakville, WA, where I enjoy reading, learning, gardening, and spending time with my family. I graduated from Bodymechanics Myotherapy and Massage School, became a certified Body Mind Bridge Practitioner, a Subtle Body Life Coach, and a Spinal Flow Practitioner.
I started PeacefulWork to help people heal and step into a new way of being. Healing is your birthright, and I’m passionate about guiding others to experience ease, love, and purpose in their lives. I’m here to support you on your journey to thrive, not just survive, and to reconnect with your magic and purpose.
It takes commitment to live consciously and on purpose. I promise to provide a nurturing environment and unwavering support as you heal and grow.
Blessings and peace to you,
~Ericka
