Business was in my blood, having grown up managing and working in my family business I felt it really shaped me to who i am now
Working in a shop in a low income area in Brazil was a university of life itself, you would meet all kinds of people.I naturally trained myself to sense all the different energies, I could also sense fear, lies, truth, be with kind people and meet bullies.That gave me a way of being that I get it’s a gift, I do follow my knowing.
Deep down I knew more was possible, there was a world out there to explore.
When I was 25 I got my passport, sold my car which gave me enough funds to do what I needed to do to move to London - England.
I choose to do whatever it takes to have more of me, I was in pursuit of my dreams and in order to do that i would do whatever it would take. Can you relate to that?
How did I start in alternative therapies…
After 4 years living in London I was tired, I was not caring for myself and adopting coping mechanisms to survive.
Right at that time I decided I needed to change and shift into a more holistic and embodied way with my health and living. I started seeing a homeopath, this is where everything started to change.
I learned to listen to my body, to ask for what I needed and be present with it. II took up yoga, I became a vegetarian, I diminished on alcohol consumption and started yoga, started to cycle, dance and enjoy the outdoors when possible.
I was happier with my body and myself BUT still I knew I needed more, I needed a job that fulfilled me, I needed to learn something different, a new job perhaps a career.
I asked the universe, what could it be? When I did not know what I wanted I asked the universe for help.
My path to the art of energy and finding other talents…
I then looked for a new career path and by asking the universe I got into Anatomy, Physiology and Massage Course.
I became a massage therapist in 2002 in London, I was good, I could use my gifts. I could connect, listen, be present with people.
I embarked on studying other therapies such as reflexology, naturopathy, Flower Essences, Essential Oils Therapies, Reiki, Deekha and Access Consciousness tools and classes.
On my quest for personal development
I started to follow different modalities and I came across this particular one that advertised for an internship I applied for and got in.
I played all the skills I have developed over the years. I am a go-getter. I'm going to make this work in my favor and I got the actual work once the internship ended.
From there I was putting in a lot of projects. I was busy, I learned and developed other skills such as becoming a personal assistant, personal organizer, managing and coordinating projects, facilitators and hosting classes.
What I offer today it’s a total result of many years of learning, creating, developing, engaging and changing.
I invite you to that, to ask questions, to look at what you would like to create?Be that with your body, relationships, business and mostly YOURSELF!

I am very new to bars and was curious to explore it with Leandra, who opened her warm home and her heart for us and facilitated this fascinating first learning session that left me hungry for more. What I loved about Leandra’s teaching was that she kept the session very relaxed, interesting and with heartwarming humour. Most of all, she was very patient and very open answering questions and sharing her own experiences with Access Consciousnes. I definitely recommend this for everyone and I am grateful for Leandra and everything I have learned.
