Skylar

Student of the Akashic Records

I am a leader, an imaginative and introspective thinker, an expressive, and original artist, an intuitive and empathic healer, and infinitely curious and ambitious.

I believe the biggest source of the worlds issues derive from ignorance and complacency. I seek to broaden others feilds of view to new teachings of love and acceptance, as well as health and self care.

I enjoy using my personal knowledge of psychology, sociology, spirituality, physiology, and natural medicines to help others awaken to their truest potential. It is our duty not only to ourselves, but to our communities and the very earth that sustains us to realize how we can utilize our own unique assets to best uplift society and protect the natural beauty of our planet.

My personal goals are to travel and experience with an open mind and heart, to be a student of as many fields of study as I can, to dip my toes into every industry and opportunity that interests me, and to more deeply develop my artistic talents to better share my soul with the world.

As a student I am imaginative and intellectually self confident. Some of the things I can do is sketch, solve math problems, and understand scientific theories. I always want to be challenged because even though someone maybe be athletically better, smarter, or even popular than me, I want to show them that I am not the boring person they think I am and that everyone is special in some type of way. One of my hobbies would be travelling and visiting new areas because after seeing New York there is no way I would want to stop seeing new places, there's a whole world waiting for me!
