"I've tapped with Katrina many times. She brings a bright energy to our sessions and is insightful and supportive." Penny Hill, LMT and EFT Coach
My Newborn Daughter with me and San Diego beach I walked by often
About me
I was born and raised in Portland OR and my family were called the "VW Bug Family" because we all drove them. I love cats and enjoy other people’s dogs. I left Portland for a number of years and got to live in sunny San Diego and then beautiful Whidbey Island while being a military wife and mom. I have an amazing daughter and she has autism. We realized as she started to grow she needed a bigger city with more resources to better serve her needs so we moved back to Portland and settled in while my husband at the time continued his military career. Eventually my first husband and I divorced.
After a while I met my Honey. We became friends and then more. Recently we got married.
I enjoy adventures small to big. Below is me on the left in one my VW bugs, indoor sky diving on the right and on Halloween I’d often dress up (me as a cat below) while my daughter trick or treated or we handed out candy.

How Tapping Came Into My Life & Sharing it with my daughter
I’ve been on a healing, peace and joy journey and I was invited by a friend to a presentation about Emotional Freedom Technique also called Tapping. It came in and out of my life for about ten years.
My daughter has tapped with me. When she'd arrive upset we'd Tap to clear the bothersome event and emotions. I love to see her face light up and the bounce in her step return. It's like a dark cloud has lifted and the sun is shining for her again.
How KD's Adventure Got Started
At age seven I wanted to be a nurse but I didn’t have the confidence to pursue it when I was old enough. The draw to help people didn’t leave me. After finishing my college degree I worked for a remarkable acupuncturist. It was enjoyable to see clients get the care they needed. Eventually the business was sold and shortly after I was laid off. I went on a few interviews and realized I want to guide and empower people directly and my journey to open my business began with blogging, training and a certification. This opened the door to share what I've learned and empower others.

Why this niche
I have walked through life changes and often used tools as I walked through them. Guiding and sharing what I've learned is what calls to me. I learned EFT in 2006 and took a certification class to become an EFT practitioner in 2016.
While going through life changes it has helped me learn tools and have them available to use when needed. We don't come with a book of tools for thriving but we can build one and keep adding to it. There are many tools to use, some tools were a fit for me and others weren't. Creating a personal tool book can help us on our journey from surviving to thriving. It can be a tool book we can look at or one we know.
When life change happens it can be stressful and I believe Stress Release is a part of going from surviving to thriving. Stress can rob us of energy, joy and hold us back from aspirations. I noticed stress has held me back and by incorporating tapping and other tools it has improved it. I want others to learn how they can lower and release stress too.
A Joyful Life is a part of thriving: During my certification I blogged and shared on Facebook. In fall 2016 a friend suggested doing a Facebook group and Joyful Life Living was created. I have been on a personal joy journey and I love to share ways to uncover and find more. There is a joy book on Amazon; it’s a joy course in a book.
Sharing my tools and knowledge with others calls to me and I am glad to be doing this.
