My Journey: From Surviving to Guiding

Hi, I’m PrairieYana. I’m a Certified Usui Reiki Master-Teacher, Energy Healer, accredited Health & Wellness Coach, Career & Life Planning Facilitator, and Addictions Recovery Specialist. But before I held any of those titles—I was simply a young woman trying to find her way through pain, survival, and deep soul questions.

I grew up in a home shaped by addiction, instability, and poverty. From a young age, I learned what it felt like to carry more than a child should—emotionally, energetically, and even spiritually. By the time I was a teenager, I had already lived through more than most adults, but something inside me kept seeking. I wanted healing. I wanted hope. I wanted to rewrite the script.

Rather than let my past define me, I chose to transform it.

That search became the spark for everything I offer now. Because I know what it’s like to numb out just to get by. I know what it’s like to self-sabotage when what you really need is connection, clarity, and support. And I also know what it takes to break free from that cycle—for good.

My healing began with learning to help others. I started in massage therapy school, then trained in Reiki and somatic healing, and eventually became a certified health coach. I’ve studied the body, the mind, and the soul—because I believe all three must come into alignment to experience true wellness.

And that’s the heart of my work today.

I now support others through evidence-based recovery coaching paired with deep energetic alignment. Whether you’re here to reset your health, rewire self-sabotaging patterns, or recover a sense of self—you’re in the right place.

If you’re ready to start breaking free, I invite you to begin with the 21-Day Breaking Free Challenge, or dive deeper with my signature Empowered Recovery Course. Both are designed to help you step into clarity, confidence, and your next aligned chapter.
