About Me

Hi from your witchy writer friend! I’m Kimia, and I’m excited to welcome you to my cosmic little corner of the Internet, where I hope to inspire you to live more authentically, intentionally, and magically.

I’m a former creative in tech turned part-time digital nomad and full-time Reiki healer, freelance writer, and conscious creatress. Up until January 2023, I worked as a blog editor for a major tech company in San Francisco. When I got laid off—and the “golden handcuffs” were rudely yanked off!—I was forced to reconcile with the fact that not only was I not where I had expected to be in life, but it didn’t necessarily feel how I wanted to feel.

And if I was being honest, it hadn’t for a long time. Maybe ever.

So, I took off an adventure. Natch! If you were familiar with this website in its Poetic Passport iteration, you know that I ran it as a travel, lifestyle, and wellness blog back in 2019 and early 2020. After nearly 4 months spent gallivanting Japan, Southeast Asia, and then parts of Europe in 2023, the travel bug came back to bite me big time. I had booked one-way flights for most of my experiences, but once I returned to California, I realized that I wanted to make travel a bigger part of my life again. And so, too, did I want to prioritize my spiritual practice.

After I was Reiki Level II certified in Japan to kick off my travels, my personal healing practice expanded in ways I never could have imagined.

It wasn’t long before I decided I didn’t want to go back to the corporate world, and instead to further expand into my spiritual and intuitive gifts—as well as begin to offer them as a conduit for healing and holding space for others.

What has been calling me most is stepping into heart-centered, soul-aligned service.

True change starts within. I believe that if enough of us embark on this path, we’ll be unstoppable. We’ve already shifted to higher frequencies and a higher consciousness as a collective; we’ll only continue to shift, bucking free of the old paradigms, the old ways and structures. I know that my own personal journey is only a minute piece of the larger macrocosm at work, and it is a moving and powerful unfolding.

As within, so without.

It’s an honor to be here, and I’m so happy you’re with me.
