Born a psychic, Gloria is a hereditary medicine woman of the Tsˆlagi´ (Cherokee) Tribe of the Carolinas through her grandfather and great-grandmother. She was taught the Tarot and palmistry by her Irish Gypsy grandmother, a noted psychic and healer.  As a young woman, Gloria studied many esoteric subjects including astrology, numerology, and hand writing analysis.
As a child, Gloria was frequently punished by adults for telling the truth.  Her parents, teachers and ministers were united in disbelief.  Unwilling to accept their “truths”, Gloria began a lifetime of interweaving the awareness she receives from her past lives with knowledge gained from great teachers of universal spiritual principles. Her extensive studies combined with her wisdom from past lives, has given Gloria mastery of the hidden corners of the human mind and soul.
-During her college years of studying Jungian psychology and art, she always viewed her academic  education through the eyes of a mystic.  She has studied dreams and kept dream diaries since her teens.  From childhood, she was gifted with dreams, and in order to understand the dreams and their dark sisters, the Nightmares, she has reached deep into her psyche to deal with issues of abuse.
As an adult, Gloria has been initiated into the ways of Ancient Egypt, ordained as a Priestess of Isis, been an apprentice to Medicine Women and Men from the Native Peoples of North America, is an ordained minister and psychic healer and has drawn knowledge from the wise women of several continents.
