Christi Campbell is a unique entrepreneur and healingenergy conduit. Her deeply intuitive connection with the spiritual realm supports access to divine gifts which she utilizes in her work. Her life journey began in Falls City, Nebraska on February 19, 1955. Charting a course through a challenging childhood, she answered the call toward the healing profession by excelling in the nursing profession, becoming an advanced practice nurse in 1986 and a family nurse practitioner in 1994, ultimately culminating with a PhD in 2003. Contemporary Health Care, an integrative healing center, was created in 2006 and operated until 2019 when Dr. Campbell closed those doors to be able to answer the divine calling to expand fully into her healing practice. After 48 years in the medical profession, she understood that work path as having prepared the physical healing base necessary to support a higher level of intuitively focused healing. Her personal growth trajectory of soul awakening and enlightenment led to discoveries that prepared her for forging that knowledge in a beautiful new direction for soul journey discovery and life transformation. As a soul journey guide, her focus is to create and hold a sacred container space with clarity of intention allowing for growth, expansion, and life-purpose discovery, toward manifestation of a glorious life tapestry of shimmering threads filled with deep hues of knowledge, experience, joy, and fulfillment.Source: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/christi-campbell-energy-healer-mark-stephen-pooler
