She’s also a Registered Nurse that has given so much of herself to so many people. She currently has a future vision for Rplefct (“a ripple effect"), a 1,000 acre retreat center for the physically disabled, their families, and community. "We will be exploring consciousness studies, medicine, science, transpersonal psychology and the perennial philosophy of the ages,” she said.
