Jeremy shares his wisdom, creativity, and playfulness as an Ordained Minister of the Healing Arts, Master Breathwork Facilitator, Toltec Teacher, and Personal Freedom Coach. He brings his love and knowledge of Firewalking, breathwork, Native American ceremony, Toltec wisdom, 12-step traditions, and shamanic practices to people through leading firewalks, pouring sweat lodges, facilitating workshops in the U.S.A. and abroad, and coaching people on their individual path of freedom. He has studied with many masters from many traditions.
Jeremy is passionate about his work with the Toltec Mysteries. He has continued to move deeper into the Toltec path as a Toltec dreamer and mentor over the last 20 years. He apprenticed, studied, and became a Toltec Dreamer, including advanced, intensive training over six years with a teacher of indigenous Toltec traditions, as presented by Don Miguel Ruiz.
Jeremy has been certified as a Firewalking Instructor by Master Firewalker Peggy Dylan, who has been teaching firewalking instructors for 30+ years around the world. He has been leading and guiding people through firewalks for 18 years.
In addition, Jeremy’s experience as Certified Chemical Dependency Counselor and Certified Challenge/Ropes Course/Adventure-Based Facilitator helped mold his teaching style into making transformation more fun and interactive. He has co-founded, owned, and worked at several recovery treatment programs and spiritual retreat centers.
Jeremy spent seven years working in the mental health and recovery field at The Ranch, a treatment facility located in central Tennessee. He then became one of the founding members of Laughing Winds, a spiritual retreat center also located in central Tennessee. For a long time, Jeremy had dreamed of creating a place where he could share the healing power of community that had worked wonders for him. In addition to this, he co-founded and served as the Chief Operations Officer for Integrative Life Center in Nashville, TN. Later on, he founded Recovery Compass in Nashville, TN, where he acted as the Chief Executive Officer.
In 2017, Jeremy co-founded Freedom Folk and Soul, where he is a visionary and lead facilitator of powerful and transformative workshops. He guides people on their journey of self-discovery and self-healing all over the world.
Jeremy is passionate about teaching people how to find their own wisdom and embrace their own humanity. He is practical and purposeful yet gentle, kind, and authentic. He is a leader, a teacher, and a healer, yet he is forever a student, vulnerable and curious and always evolving.
Jeremy is both masculine and feminine. He is stable and free-flowing, determined and protective, agile and nurturing.
“I would love to invite you into a dream. A dream of abundance, love, joy, and beauty. Where everything in life brings you such gratitude, and you know that the world is how it should be. A dream where you meet the world with such love and acceptance that you know everything is okay. A dream where you say yes to life without fear and never regret your choices. You accept yourself so tenderly without judgment because you know you are life loving life. A dream where you have the power to manifest whatever you want in your life because you say so. A dream with such passion and creativity that you only ask yourself, “How will I create my dream today?”
This dream may seem like it is not possible, but inside you exists all the wisdom to create the most wonderful dream. How would you choose to live your life if you knew anything was possible? I would love to help guide you through all the beliefs that stand in the way of you dreaming this dream. I believe that we have the power to change our beliefs about how we see the world and how we see ourselves. We have invested our faith in a belief system of fear and limitation. If we have the power to dream a life of fear and limitation, and there’s not enough (time, money, or energy), then we have that same power to create a life of love, abundance, and acceptance. So, I invite you to take a chance at freedom.” ~ Jeremy
